Better Sign Edit
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Better Sign Edit
The 1.20 version of Minecraft added the ability to edit signs which have already been placed.
That's nice, but it can be quite annoying. For example: when a sign is placed on top of a chest, you can miss-click and start editing the sign instead of opening the chest.
This mod fixes that, by only letting you edit the sign when sneaking, and it also adds some other quality-of-life features.
Features
- [Server side] Only allow editing signs when sneaking
- [Client side] Only save sign edits by clicking the 'Done' button, not by pressing 'Escape'
