Sign System

The sign system processes signs and renders them via two render modes:

1. Decal
2. SurfaceGui

Decal Renderer

The decal renderer utilizes a Decal by itself to reflect by increasing the decal's base Color3 above (255, 255, 255).

Benefits:

1. Appears more sharp when viewed at an angle
2. Orientation is preserved on meshes or unions
3. Probably more light-weight as no SurfaceGuis need to be created

Cons:

1. Sign may appear overwhelmingly bright when faced uprfront
2. Materials such as Metal will make the decal appear distorted

SurfaceGui Renderer

The SurfaceGui renderer utilizes a SurfaceGui with an ImageLabel to reflect by using .Brightness, .LightInfluence, and .ImageTransparency.

Benefits:

1. Prevents the sign from appearing extremely bright
2. Can be applied to every material

Cons:

1. Appears slightly blurred when viewed at an angle
2. Orientation may be distorted or incorrect on meshes or unions
