    Even tho I love the auto-private feature, I keep accidentaly privating my chests when I try to open them with a sign in my hand.

    Maybe either make it a toggleable feature or change it to crouching?

    edit: crouching wont work because of creating shops.

    You can just right click a chest with a sign and it should full private it automagically

    Yeah this should be a toggleable feature, because if you change it to crouch click then how would you be able to create shops?

    I also kept doing this while trying to recreate my 300ish tradeshops I busted out of an abundance of caution before the update. Toggling this would be nice, I basically never use private signs.

    I think the solution is to switch it with the keybind for placing a sign on a chest (Shift+R-Click) flip it around, so just right clicking a chest while holding a sign, places a normal sign for writing or shop making and Shift+R-Clicking will auto private. Its a handy feature but I think it should be flipped.

    I think it would be better to just make it able to be toggled because it would be a bit annoying to use this feature if anything you were making private wasn’t directly on the ground, like a tall stack of chests


    Support for making it a toggleable feature

    I am in favour of a toggleable option as I only play solo and thus don’t need private signs, but I see the appeal of auto-privating in coop.
