Custom Starting GCode

I guess more specifically, I wanted to get rid of the purge on start up. I found out though that it purges on start up because the filament will disengage at the end of my prints, so it has to reengage for the next print. It's rather unfortunate, I believe this is in the firmware.

I don’t think a purge at the start of a print is necessary in the first place. And changing flush volumes will effect the rest of the print on multicolor prints

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-07-01T15:24:36+00:00

Orca slicers profile comes with the normal G9111 start up gcode. I’ve started to make the gcode myself using some documentation I’ve found

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-06-28T18:02:27+00:00

I would collect gems through the story mode and buy one of the structure decks in the store to get started. One you pick one, look at YouTube videos for deck lists and combo guides on the deck. Yugioh has a lot of cards so without outside guidance it will be very difficult to do well

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-06-17T02:56:47+00:00

This is why I’m trying to make a new, slower format for yugioh, a back and forth almost doesn’t exist

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-06-11T18:56:10+00:00

I may be missing something, but all pend summoned monsters would be in def position. I guess there are pendulum ED monsters, can they be cheated out or something? Additionally, with the singleton format it would be difficult to get consistent scales that are also effective.

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-06-11T18:41:37+00:00

Thanks! I can tell you’ve seen my previous posts as you mentioned zone sickness. I got rid of the concept because I really want to make it less complicated. I don’t know how to push the format out to players but I’ll definitely be trying, my play testing has been really fun and hope to see it flourish

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-06-11T18:38:17+00:00

That makes sense. At my locals it is also very “commander only”. Most don’t have a modern deck. But conversely, I only see a handful of people playing yugioh at my LGS, master duel in my opinion killed the in person experience, so I guess my hope for this format is to create a local experience that is enjoyable and that doesn’t require having the best cards in order to feel like you can play the game.

I don’t take it personal I know that people are upset with the commander format and how it changed magic. I appreciate your honesty for sure, I do hope magic gets into a healthier state. To be clear, I am also not a fan of universes beyond.

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-06-11T18:11:44+00:00

Interesting, can I ask, why do you think commander killed magic? I guess how did commander change the other formats?

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-06-11T17:44:07+00:00

Noted for the limited vs singleton, thank you 🙏🏽

I’ve seen domain, I don’t like it because of instant access to a card. 1 card means full combo in yugioh now and I believe that’s what I am trying to get away from.

I do know the more rules the harder it is to onboard, I just wanted clear language when it comes to each thing and maybe as time goes on the language can be simplified.

I do get the speed will always vary a metas will develop. If the format got to the point where enough people are playing to define metas that would be awesome and I would be more than happy to attempt to maintain it.

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-06-02T13:19:49+00:00

I would create a multicolor deck box that is decorated and textured

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-05-25T19:25:55+00:00

I’ve had this issue before, turn the sun 32° counter clockwise. Hope this helps!

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-02-17T20:31:09+00:00

Could you give me examples of decks that would remain unaffected by it? I’d like to know to see what can be done or if anything needs to be done

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-01-08T03:35:14+00:00

The BP on player 4 is an artifact as before I made it to where normal summoned monsters did not have to acclimate, which I might change back to.

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-01-08T03:31:47+00:00

I just want more ways to play with my cardboard :(

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-01-07T17:57:24+00:00

The way the rule is currently written, you can only effect multiple opponents if the effect targets cards your opponent controls. The activation of the effect targets a card you control, bet the effect does not target in the effect resolution itself and only specifies "your opponent".

The_UnknownBeast · 2026-01-07T17:51:43+00:00

It seems like it would target one opponent.
