Kudos - not an issue - works well in pcb-rnd integration #6

Thank you for C-PCB. As a user of pcb-rnd I am thrilled with nacent C-PCB integration. C-PCB is blazing fast and does a great autorouting job.

Thank you :)

It’s wonderful to see it used in the real world rather than just my test rig.

I’m going to be making a few changes to help other use cases pcb-rnd project has planned.

Will hopefully get through those tomorrow.

Thanks for posting the video link !

You have to post some more video links of your boards being routed ! :)

Chris, while c-pcb is working great for through-hole parts, it fails with smd parts in two ways; (1) vias often clobber other parts and pads; (2) pcb-rnd will freeze when c-pcb doesn't return. I mention this since it seems that you are about to make some changes in c-pcb. Thank you for c-pcb - it is very promising.

Hi, I’ve been suffering from a torn Retina:( laser treatment recently so been taking it easy on screen time.

I’ve been meaning to take a look at some extra features to aid pcb-rnd with incremental routing.

I do know there are issues with surface mounted components. Not had much chance to test on that.

I’m planning over Xmas break to do a few days on c-pcb so I’ll see what I can do.

Regards

Chris

Yikes - take care - the retina is irreplaceable. I too have eye problems and will need some laser surgery next year. C-PCB is great but not worth exacerbating a health problem.

Chris, Issue tracker is not the right place for this, but I just wanted to say Thank You for such a great tool. Even for persons who prefer manual routing (such as me), this tool provides great starting point for further optimisations. And, in my opinion, among open source tools this one has the biggest potential. Wishing you all the best in new year. Please, take care of the eyes. Thank you.
