Prusa Slicer 2.8.0 Color Change Issue

With Prusa Slicer 2.8.0, my printer display is no longer showing the time remaining to a color change.  It does stop for the color change, but looking at the display you cannot tell when that will be.

I believe the issue is with the GCODE M73 command. In 2.8.0, you will see the following:

M73 P0 R104
M73 C0

R104 is the total duration of the print.  C0 should be the time of the filament change, e.g. C44.

This is a new problem with 2.8.0, as it worked perfectly with 2.7.4.

2.8.0 does generate the proper M600 GCODE for the actual change.

(My printer is a MK3+.)

RE: Prusa Slicer 2.8.0 Color Change Issue

Already been reported as an issue as far back as the 2.8 alpha releases and they chose to release with the issue anyway, so you can view it as a known issue.  I suspect 2.8.1 isnt far off so you will have to hope they fix it in that one.
