Infill Inconsistency with PETG
I recently started printing with PETG on my MK3 and noticed it is doing weird things with the infill. For rectilinear infill it seems to be inconsistently extruding between crossing the lines of the layer below. For half the travel between lines on the previous layer it extrudes what looks like a normal thickness and then under-extrudes for the second half. (see attached pictures). Is there a way to make it extrude more consistently?
For Grid infill, it seems to stop short when it crosses a perpendicular path and doesn't adhere. as a result the infill from one direction separates relatively easily with the infill which it touches at 90 degrees.(see attached pictures). Is there a way to increase the overlap of where the infill crosses itself so that it has better adhesion?

RE: Infill Inconsistency with PETG
I had the same problem printing with TPE
in my case the parts rigidity is base on the infill and those separation give more rigidity when we twist in one direction than in the other.
this is directly the slicer.
