Prevents players from editing signs (text or item signs), picking up crab pots, breaking floor tiles, gifting items to other players, and optionally, from picking up decorations and furniture, unless a keybind is pressed or toggled. Many times once a sign or decoration is placed, pickups are accidental, so this mod was designed to help prevent that frustration.
Default key bind is Left Control. Hold it to manipulate signs, pickup crab pots, etc. Can be changed via GMCM, or switched to a Toggle keybind (instead of holding it).
Empty signs can be updated normally. Only once a sign has a value does it become locked.
