The Wooden Billboard is a craftable structure that serves as a large sign for posting messages, rules, or information around your base or server landmarks. Once placed, you can use the sign UI to add custom text that other players can read.
Spawn it directly into your inventory with its item ID or GFI code, then place it as you would any other structure. It requires no power or fuel to display text, making it a straightforward way to communicate persistent information across your server without relying on chat or server announcements.
