Probe points offset - unaffected by beacon x/y offset override
I just finished my 3.1 upgrade including a beacon probe. I'm currently running through the initial configuration. I noticed the 3 probe points used for z-tilt adjustment are shifted backward by several centimeters so that the probe point in the back is such that the beacon hangs halfway off the printbed.
First, i checked my 0,0 point and that is where it needs to be.
I didn't want to touch the kinematics variables since it's a stock V-core. So I added a beacon section to my user overrides in the printer.cfg:
[beacon]
x_offset: 0
y_offset: 22.5
I started playing with the y_offset and strangely, this does not seem to change anything. No matter what value I assign to y_offset, the position of the probe points remain unchanged.
Puzzled right now ...
Why could that be, what am I missing?
And second, is that the right approch to correct for the "probe point triangle" shifted to the back?
Version is RatOS-v2.1.0-RC3

Solution
Yeah the default config assumes the default hardware on the default toolhead, which is/was a superpinda on EVA3 so the z_tilt points and positions and bed_mesh min/max is all tailored to the EVA offsets for superpinda.
You should change those when swapping to beacon, unfortunately i currently don't have a great way to automatically adjust those as there's too much information missing.
