Three calibration plugins for PrusaSlicer 3.0
Fan tower, speed tower and tolerance test plugins for PrusaSlicer 3.0's new Lua plugin system, with most of the code written by Claude.
The full story
PrusaSlicer 3.0 alpha added a Lua plugin system that ships with flow and temperature towers. This maker added three more: a fan tower that steps fan speed by height, a speed tower that steps print speed using modifier volumes, and a tolerance test plate of holes with a matching pin.
The maker says most of the code was written with Claude. Because the plugin API is barely documented, the real work was reading PrusaSlicer's source to find out what exists, which is written up in the repository; alone, they say, it would have taken weeks instead of days.
