Alright, after many hours of adjusting and testing, here are the results.

Side note: What disturbs the most is that Mainsail/Fluidd terminal list in reverse order. Oldest bottom, newest top.

Everything is timestamped. You can also reverse the order with a simple setting.

Well hell, You can in Mainsail too.

I’m with Eddy, I was always annoyed by it but never looked to see if I could change it.

Good to know.

Looks like my assumptions about the z motor drivers being the cause of the issues was correct.

With the TMC2209’s I had better results in spreadcycle, but I could not run the z motors in spreadcycle because of the hiss and really loud vibration noise they made no matter what I tried, so I was stuck in stealthchop and having to do weird stuff in my config for it to level and z tilt calibrate properly.

I finally had enough of trying to make it work with the TMC2209’s and decided to pull the trigger on some TMC5160T’s, which seems to have paid off! I no longer have any issues with z tilt or bed leveling using normal values, and now I can now run the Z motor drivers in spreadcycle without any loud hissing or extremely noisy motor movements like the 2209’s gave me in spreadcycle mode.

Before it would take around 10-15 retries for the z tilt calibration, and I could almost never run the z tilt adjust back to back or it would say it was out of range or too many retry attempts. Now I can run it back to back to back and its good just about every time with around 2 retries max till it settles.
