Prime line in wrong place?
Before I open a ticket on GitHub, just curious if this is just me.
My XL starts squirting out the prime line while it's outside of the steel sheet area. It then moves over across the left tab where it catches but this still looks like wrong behavior. I guess I can adjust the startup gcode.

RE: Prime line in wrong place?
I also noticed it and I see it more as an intention and advantage for easier removal of the prime line.
So it is not bug, but feature 😉
RE: Prime line in wrong place?
I just started to check the startup gcode for it and it looks like there's a mistake in it. But I had to rush out the door and couldn't spend more time on it. Will check later.

RE: Prime line in wrong place?
I took a closer look at the startup gcode. Not sure what's going on in line 49:
G0 X{(0 == 0 ? 30 : (0 == 1 ? 150 : (0 == 2 ? 210 : 330)))} Y{(0 < 4 ? -8 : -5.5)} ; move close to the sheet's edge
That looks like erroneous code to me. Zero is always zero, so the X offset will always be 30. To me, it looks like a variable name got lost in the shuffle here as in
G0 X{(variable[0] == 0 ? 30 : (variable[0] == 1 ? 150 etc
but I'm not sure what variable that would be. The numbers 0 through 2 and then the 4 for Y makes me wonder if it probes which extruder is active?
Printer is printing right now, I may change the code tomorrow to see if I can get the purge line back on the sheet.
I also checked the Mk4 startup code but didn't see anything resembling above code, which may indicate that it is indeed related to multiple extruders.

RE:
I think it's because they changed build sheet shape after beta testing. Will probably be fixed with a firmware update.
