Regarding german signs - what about adding speed warning posters?

I mean, something like these from Runter vom Gas:

I always see tons of them along german roads. Have seen similar posters in map mods too, and they definitely improve the autobahn atmosphere in my opinion.

Unlike distance and navigation signs, I guess they're not that time costuming to add either. Say you make four or five different posters, you can just randomly add them "everywhere"? Hence, an easy way to improve the detail level :)

Am I developing at the moment?

You’re right, I found one now... but only one single one on a pretty long trip. Even in northern Germany they seem to be very rare, so there cant be many of them?

I was thinking about adding them "everywhere", so that you see them pretty often ;)

One quick question out of ignorance: How difficult is to create and add new road signs? Otherwise, if I could learn to make them, I'd LOVE to see distance signs in the game. I really miss them and I think that they would make the game less monotone.

It would defo be a cool idea but I don't know how we make the area just yet.

We never made one for Finland in v1.0. Those are SCS their default dutch ones.

They are quite bulky and they don't look good anywhere outside Belgium. (no offense, the bulkiness does have some kind of charm)...
