    This is very cool thank you. I'm wondering if it would be possible to add animations/transitions between the different texts of the multi phase display like some real dot matrix displays?

    One animation I have in mind the most is the one that flipdots do in order to not cause too much magnetic stress on one row. Kind of like a consistent wave, I forgot what it's called.

    I have a texture issue with the yellow flip-dot and the orange LED signs. They both show white text. I have this issue since 0.28 or 0.29, 0.31 just released recently and I still have this issue. I cleared my cache, updated all my mods, however, this issue is still present.

    Left to right: flip-dot, orande LED, white LED, colour LED

    Yellow flip-dot (definitely not yellow here):

    Orange LED (more lighting, still definitely not orange here):

    White LED (works perfectly fine, brighter "white" then the orange LED):
    upload_2023-12-16_13-59-40.png

    Colour LED (works perfectly fine):
    upload_2023-12-16_14-0-33.png
    upload_2023-12-16_14-3-39.png

    Although, there is also one small problem: the text is visible in a black shade both above and below the "normal" text (best visibility of that at white LED and colour LED) and the coloured route number gets mirrored to above, the left side, and below the actual route number.

    Are you sure you have version 2.6 of the app? (You can see the version number at the top right of it)
    And the black text is also visible on vanilla displays so it is more of a game issue.

    I actually have the version 2.5. I'll download the newest version and then I am going to give you an update.
    --- Post updated ---
    Well, I updated the mod to version 2.6, however, the issue is still present. I also tried to deactivate several other mods but without success.

    Are you using the sign type with (BusDispCtrl) in its name? The issue should only happens to the vanilla ones.

    I am using the BusDispCtrl type signs. The vanilla ones work too, but you can't display two rows of text, or images, am I right? That's why I'm asking because it's really weird that the flip-dot and orange LED displays don't show their real texture.

    Then I don't know why it still happens to you. The sign should look like this.

    If the text colour is too dark it may not display properly on monochrome displays.

    For some reason, I can't type on the Bus Controller to make custom routes. It keeps trying to change the camera or do actions
    Edit: Nvm I just can't read

    Is there a way to switch from a destination to another destination without reopening the UI app?

    In the attached photo, lets say I am on "1 Destination 1" and want to switch to "2 Destination 2", can I do that without pulling up the UI app as shown?

    Hey, does this support Japanese text? Recently used it and it didn't work when I tried to input Japanese text while using the Hirochi Aero.
