Shadowrun 5 Initiative Tracker

thingiverse

Initiative Marker. Designed to be used with numbered 3mm pegs (will be included in the final design) to keep track of initiative order. I used the values 1-39 as these cover the majority of initiative results in SR5 (barring highly specialized builds, of course). Initially I meant to start at a higher value (and go up for a bit more), as it is normallly impossible to score under about 5. But I realized that wounds and other conditions might lower initiative, so results down to and including 1 are possible (though not highly likely to be encountered on a daily basis). The tracker features an internal space that is meant to store the pegs, the connectors and the dial (and might be used for a pen or some dice too). I did not yet include the connector to close the box up, as I am not yet fully content with having two kinds of connectors (one for connecting the two main parts to use it as tracker, one kind to close the two parts up into a box) and will be looking into another solution. The impatient and technically versed can design their own locking part: it is basically half of the connector pin and twice as high. A trapezoid with the parallel sides 1cm apart. the short side measures 1 cm, the longer base 1,4cm (these are the measurements of the cutout, so you might want to shave 0,3 to 0,5 off all dimensions). The height should be about 3cm (the cutouts have a height of 1,5 cm each... again, you might want to design it somewhat smaller to make it fit - unless you like sanding things). I'm also contemplating adding some space for neodymium magnets, so friction isn't the only thing that keeps the box shut. Currently printing the model - I will add some pictures once I am done.
