Enhancement Requests - Accessory Mode & P2PP-controlled wipe towers #172

Open bavery79 opened 11 months ago

bavery79 commented 11 months ago

Moving from P2 to P3P (with a Klipper-based printer) recently, I find myself missing a lot of the extra functionality allowed by the FULLPURGEREDUCTION mode that I had been using regularly with my Palette 2S. Ran across a closed issue regarding Accessory Mode not able to support any of the P2PP-generated wipe tower modes and would like to add my 2-cents.

On a related note, I would love to see an ability to take advantage of those extra functions I've enjoyed (specifically WIPEFEEDRATE & AUTOADDPURGE) in something like the tower delta mode (ideally with accessory mode support for klipper but I understand this circles back to request #1 above), so a user could for example set a delta of 0 and then be able to get a tower built right next to the printed model while still being able to use AUTOADDPURGE and WIPEFEEDRATE features. Or maybe it could be as simple as - if you try to enable one of those features with the default Prusa-generated wipe tower P2PP could just auto-switch to generate its own tower. Basically, anything to make AUTOADDPURGE useable with a more "default" setup of P2PP I think would add greatly to useability and give one less thing to have to worry about when setting up prints.

will do some further investigation to see if these can be enabled without major rewrites of the code

I see I was apparently mistaken about autoaddpurge and it actually dies already work in the default mode with prusa generated wipe tower. Could have sworn this wasn't the case a few months ago, but might have been user error on my part. :-)

Nevermind, it seems I spoke too soon! New PP2P version now shows a confirmation that autoaddpurge has been disabled due to incompatibility. Perhaps the older PP2P version just wasn't showing the notification?

Autoaddpurge can only be done with self-genrrated purge towers. I need control over where to purge the filament Will think about a way to resolve this but nothing comes to mind right now
