Inspired by John Harper’s cool stress trackers on The Last Word show and Eric Vulgaris’ cool clocks (which he shared on the community), I created a stress tracker. I am not a graphic designer—the stress tracker works but I am not going to win any design contests … well, ever 😉
You would use them just like Eric’s clocks. So, Eric’s (slightly modified for the stress tracker) instructions follow:
In your roll20 game session, navigate to the macros tab to the left of the options gear in the top right of the screen. Locate the “Rollable Tables” section and create a new table. Name it something like “Stress-Tracker”. Then one by one, upload each image of the appropriate stress level in order into the rollable table.
Once you’ve made your rollable table, to use it, hit “token” on “Stress-Tracker”. This creates the 0-Stress token on roll20. It’s size is probably going to be screwed up. Right-click on the token and select “Advanced” then “Set Dimensions”. The .png file is 281 pixels by 54 pixels.
Optionally, highlight the token and double click it to give it a name, assign it to someone or keep it yourself.
Lastly to fill in the stress-tracker token, highlight the token, right click on it, and select “Choose Side”. A slide bar dialogue box opens up and you move the slide bar to the right amount of stress.
Have fun!
