G-code bug

Hi Tom.

Again with this problem, with the same configs as before and facet angle of 0.8.

Moving to a facet angle of 0.9 solved the problem.

Thanks

Hi Gabriel,

Sorry for the delay. I think we have a fix. That Corner Rounding Patch introduced a bug. The determination of whether a segment was completely rounded and eliminated or not had a bug. The inconsistancy resulted in taking the square root of a negative number. The bug was somewhat random as it occurred when the corner rounding portion coincidentally matched the original segment length. So changing most anything would likely shuffle things and avoid the problem.

Thanks for the precise example.

The Corner Rounding patch has been updated: GCodeInterpreter.dll and source if needed TrajectoryPlanner.cpp

Please let us know if you have further issues.

Regarding your earlier question on what facet angle to use: We don't have a simple answer. A smaller value results in in more segments needing to be sent to and processed by KFLOP. For example a facet angle of 0.5 results in 180 segments for a single 90 degree angle. KFLOP can process ~2000 segments/second. Generally we try to keep the value > 1.

Hi Tom.


Will use facet angle of 1 degree. Any future problem I will let you know.

Thanks for the solution and the help.
