Hi - Is there an updated version of the Q6 file? I am getting the following error

Dealt with this issue before. It's just a matter of removing that one line with encoder_insert_state(0). IIRC, it's because of encoder mapping support that's implemented on the keyboard (or keymap) itself.

Awesome, thank you. Think this is why i am getting the following error? This is happening when trying to set my keymap as the default. Sorry I am learning how to program my keyboard on the fly.

It's trying to find a file that doesn't exist. I'll assume that you copied only the Q6 folder. (There was a factory folder in the playground branch.) In this case, can you check the rules.mk in both keymap folders and see if SRC += factory/major/test.c is present. If it is, delete this since that's what's causing the error.

That worked, thank you. You are a life savior.
