Empty layer is only created if possible. You may be runing the CTBv2 which is unable to use that. Check your CTB version or upload the file here so i can check
I know for sure you aren't on V4 and V3 is compatible, so you should be on V2. I recommend you upgrade your saturn firmware and start using v4 to benefit from proper wait times
Hm, I'd expect that the existing script wouldn't work then- but it does. That said- you were correct, it appears lychee is outputting V2 ctb files however! Changing to V4 does produce the desired results, but I don't get why that script would work then unless it's just ignoring the file version and throwing stuff in that could possibly not work....
It might be nice if there was a warning about this in wait time before ready or similar.
I'm testing this now, will close if it's fixed.

Script is outdated and UVtools suggestion is way safer. It's working, but the deal is: CTBv2 don't support custom layer position, meaning layer 0 (empty) will print at your layer height, lets say 0.05mm, but layer 1 (the real first layer) will print at 0.10mm instead of 0.05mm because CTBv2 don't support overrides nor care about our set position, potential leading to failure if is too tall to adhese to plate. Due to that potential failure point, i don't allow it on those cases. Also, empty layer is only required on CTBv4 as fair i know. CTBv3 dont require it because they only mess up firmware first layer wait times on v4, although i have no feedback how it works for v2, in anycase v2 should not be used anymore, neither v3. V4 is what all people should go because of introduced proper wait times (No light off delay BS)
Yep, changing to CTB4 format resolved the issue! Closing, but a note or warning if the version is <3 would be a nice add I think.
System
Describe the bug
Applying the "wait time before cure" suggestion does not appear to create the empty base layer required for this to work- both in-editor and on-printer. I also believe it's skipping the rest time adjustment as well as it appears to instantly start exposing on-printer.
This bug does not appear with the script that predates this being integrated into uvtools
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior: Apply wait time before cure Observe that no empty layer is created in-editor
Expected behavior
An empty layer is created
Screenshots
Bottom layer, wait time before cure applied
