Adaptive pi
-
@droftarts I discovered a new branch of math and it's electrical. It started with trying to solve the Traveling Salesman Problem and discovered it Been thinking dc42 would love It. I have a github for it. /RDM3DC/Adaptive-Resistance-Principle-ARP- also the tsp solver my help with shorter toolpaths.
-
@Ozzzzzzy Okay, this is the Github repository: https://github.com/RDM3DC/Adaptive-Resistance-Principle-ARP-
I can't see the Python adaptive toolpath script in there. Using the TSP solver for toolpaths would be more for a slicer to integrate.Ian

@droftarts there's allot of info in the discussions, I havnt fully solved tsp yet but it might , you can make a slicer plugin that should work if you use the equation that should improve toolpaths, I messed with it weeks ago but would have to dig for it. I think the adaptive pi and the tsp slicer plugin would be 2 separate things derived from the same eqution and the heater tuner is seperate

@Ozzzzzzy I got an email if this is my account and it is. Just havnt posted in a long time and if you've read my post you no I can't spell so I need all the help I can get from ai, it did most the math I just discovered an analog computer with er fluid that might be able to solve tsp and then simulated it with python and the equation came from that

Okay, thanks, just checking, as it's been a while (5 years) since you last posted!

@Ozzzzzzy "This is a post-processing script"? I don't see a script beyond the snippets, and I don't see a linked file. Download the script from where?

@MJLew what slicer do you want I will try and make 1
-
@MJLew I made a github but just made it and have not tested any of it /RDM3DC/TSP-slicer)

@Ozzzzzzy Most of my printing is of gcode that I construct with my own custom code generating software. Hand-coded, if you like.
I used to use arcs extensively when my Duet-equipped Voron was my primary production printer, but I bought a Prusa MK4 and found to my horror that the firmware at that time did not properly support arcs! I changed all of my code to eliminate arcs. Finally, a long time after my prompting* Prusa added arc support to the firmware but my experiments suggested that arcs caused gave stuttering movements with blobs and zits and so I did not go back to arcs.
*I suspect that my questions and complaints did nothing to accelerate the incorporation of arcs into the firmware, as it was when PrusaSlicer integrated an ArcWelder-like feature that it was done.

@MJLew it only substitutes arcs after it has reduced travel moves, and it sets the segmentation tolerance so the planner doesn’t choke . On RRF the default 0.05 mm arc segmentation works well; on recent Prusa FW it’s about 0.0125 mm. Maybe
