modified Afterburner-Volcano retraction on Voron presets #5

Closed tanaes closed 2 years ago

tanaes commented 3 years ago

Per issue #4

I simply removed the inherits: *volcano* flag from all direct-drive Voron presets. There might be a better way to do this!

The volcano needs the increased retraction. If you have a volcano installed on your afterburner (mine is on a mobius) and you test many retractions settings, change the value l216

you should also create a second volcano profile just below it, for direct-drive, if the retraction is that different.

7 mm retraction will clog even a volcano if it's on direct drive due to heat creep (like it did to mine this afternoon 😆). 1 mm might be a reasonable starting place (33% greater than V6).

Do you know if you can do math in the .ini file, so as to maybe set

[printer:*volcano*]
retract_length = retract_length * 1.2

Or something? Otherwise I can make a separate volcano_ab setting.

can't do math, create a volcano_ab setting

supermerill commented 2 years ago

I created it.
