Slicer creating mid-air lines in prime tower

This is new. Not sure if it started with the latest Bambu Studio update, but the slicer is creating a prime tower with lines that start printing in mid-air. Any idea what’s going on here?

That’s intentional; they’ve changed the tower.

That’s completely normal, don’t worry

So, what is this supposed to accomplish? Seems like it just makes a blob off to the side, which is sometimes carried into the prime tower on the nozzle. I’ve seen this leave a mess inside the prime tower on some of mine. Then that mess sticks to the side of the nozzle as it travels to the print, leaving lumps there.

It’s in the wiki I linked.

“To address typical cases where bonding is difficult, we optimized the interface-layer temperature, extrusion, ironing, and flushing workflow…”

However, if you want to talk about the topic in general, I recommend this existing thread, which goes into more detail about pros and cons. I’ve linked you to where the new update kicks off. :+1:

Thanks for the additional info and link to the conversation. Seems like many are having the same problems I have with this “improvement”. :frowning:
