Execute wait should really be done in a Mcode only. It will stop the Lua chunk from running. Please tell me a bit more how you have this setup. How and where are you calling this script?

Lol , what part seems to be an issue?  Many things can make something like that happen that are not software related. Vectric was originally done by another Brian.. he invented ArtCam for Delcam . Next time I see him I will be sure to tell him the software industry (artistic CNC software) he invented is no good... actually last time I talked to him he was getting ready to retire.. way smarter than me.

Sorry I am just having a little fun. This stuff can be a bit of a pain. Zoom in on the toolpath and see if you can see the height change. I have had that happen.  Coming out and throwing stones will not get you help.

Hey is that one of the Arduino but not really ESP866 boards? if so... I just got a few of them I was going to goof around with. I am way more than happy to code the TCP on my side and help with the source code. I know I can make this all work in Lua! I was able to talk to JRMI from MAch4 to run my son's train layout

At the top of the screen in screen edit mode you can mouse over the icons. The 2nd one from the right looks like a stopwatch. That is an on screen timer object. Place that on the screen and you can use that to call your code at your intervals you would like.

This had no ill effects so it is now in the versions after 4690 . We are testing for release so we should have this on the web if all goes well in testing. All features are cut off for now.

Update... The Xbox controller plugin is part of the hobby installer as of version 4690. So no need to go looking and installing
