im using the lgx lite extruder, 0.6 nozzle, 0.2 layer height, 0.7 line width and 60mm/s speed

Did you adjust tension on the lgx? Did you adjust nozzle size in both slicer and printer.cfg? Did you check if it works when manually extruding via Mainsail?

yes i did all that i put it to the far right on the lgx lite the nozzle size is adjusted and it extrudes fine when im extruding it via Mainsail the e steps are also correct thats why iam out of ideas my last guess is that its some stupid slicer setting that iam not seeing because im blind

Do you have a profile that worked before? Try using that with the adjusted temps for TPU And maybe restricted flow rate Start with 5mm³/s and go up in increments
