MtG Fully Customizable Keyword Counters
Description
I've always thought [tonyyoungblood's Magic: The Gathering Counters / Chips system](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1815081/remixes) was absolutely amazing. Sadly, it's become slightly out of date. With the move to Magic's Arena client, the [symbols got a complete overhaul], and [new ones are added with each new ability](https://magicarena.fandom.com/wiki/Abilities). This means any design uploaded here will be out of date quickly....unless it was customizable. # Introducing the Magic: the Gathering Fully Customizable Keyword Counters! These are a complete recreation in OpenScad of tonyyoungblood's original design. But rather than use static symbols, it utilizes the fantastic and well maintained [Magic: the Gathering card symbol font](https://mana.andrewgioia.com/) project. Simply feed the symbols you want to generate into the OpenScad parameter, and you can generate whatever counters you need! When more symbols are added, you can generate more! ## These counters are the perfect pairing with my [Magic: the Gathering Universal Token](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5552035)! The OpenScad file supports two modes:: ## Standard Mode * All keyword counters are printed with a base counter height of 2.7mm. * The symbol is then extruded another 1.3mm beyond that, for a total height of 4mm. * Since the heights are known, you can pause the print at the 2.7mm layer and swap colors to get a two tone counter. See the orange on black photos I printed for a player at my LGS. * Supports new symbols automatically, just pop them in and you're ready to go! * Ideal if you want a color scheme across your counter. * Use one of c,w,u,b,r, or g to generate a blank counter. ## Multicolor Batch Mode * Enabled by setting the `multicolorBatch` parameter to `true`. * All keyword counters are printed with variable height, ranging from 2.7mm to 3.7mm, depending upon colors used. * Designed to be printed with CWUBRG colors of plastic swapped in at the appropriate layers. See the main photo. You can optionally, as I did, print the base of the counter a different color. (I did it because I was low on grey plastic). * Designed to use grey plastic <= 2.7mm, then switching every 0.2 mm after that to White, then Blue, Black, Red, and finally Green. * Symbols have been prepopulated, roughly based on the [color pie of abilities](https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Evergreen#Evergreen_keywords_by_color). * Symbols with a symbol color lower in the priority order than their base color, (for example, see the trample or first strike counter) will be printed as an indented symbol instead of a raised one. * While not exposed in a public variable, you can change the order of the plastic colors you wish to use. * Ideal if you want your counters to follow the color pie for easier identification. * Requires you to set which colors you want for each symbol in the provided variables.
