Signs are holdable items that define a flexible search area that can be shared by multiple bots. When a bot has a Find nearest command, you can use the Select Structure button to select a Sign, Directional Sign, or Billboard, and that bot will use the area defined by the sign.

If Link Area is selected, the search area for the sign will move whenever the sign itself is moved by a player or bot. If a sign is carried such that its linked area overlaps with undiscovered map, the linked area will be translated relative to the sign (the linked area will not overlap any amount of undiscovered map).

To define a sign's search area, pick it up and press Z and then the select area button.
