remove broken parts when printing

[ma00aem]

Hi!
It would be great if multiple parts are printing at once, there would be a option to remove parts with problems during the print. One way would to generate multiple g-code fils with combinations of parts that are disabled.
So you could on the fly change the g-code file...

So you want to rewrite the g-code file while the part is printing leaving out all code for the failed part - and then have the printer seamlessly pick up printing the rest of the parts from where it left off using a new G-Code file?

That's going to be a REAL tall order, if you ask me. Granted, I don't write the code and there's no harm in asking ...

if the part is printing one layer per part and then moving to the next part i dont see that it would be impossible to change it to skip a part? but yes that is my vision.

How does the printer know the part is broken during printing? Need a sensor or some QC... Impossible without human intervention.

If you just want to Pause the print and remove, then Resume I think that's possible... but it wouldn't automatic.

"If you just want to Pause the print and remove, then Resume I think that's possible... but it wouldn't automatic." yes i´m thinking manually, but still a good feature

I had that same idea in mind, so will be queuing for this one to come real.

I was just thinking about asking for this feature. Simplify3D already does the generation of gcode to send to the printer so it has everything already calculated from the model. If I am printing 12 of something and notice the 4 and 8 objects are not printing properly, I should be able to hit a "Pause and Adjust" button that takes me back to the "main view screen" (Simplify3D could save the last print position sent to printer). From there I could delete or mark objects 4 and 8 for not printing (and clean the print bed of debris from the failed prints) and then click resume. I'm a developer and it doesn't sound impossible
