Need Help Adding Synchronized Secondary CoreXY System Inside VCore 3.1
Thanks for the information! I actually did reach out to that person already but unfortunately wasn't successful in getting a solution.
My current challenge is specifically about the steppers' definition of the secondary CoreXY system. The main issue I'm facing is that while [manual_stepper] definitions work, they don't use proper CoreXY kinematics and Gcode. This means I can only move diagonally right now, as the steppers move sequentially (one motor at the time) instead of simultaneously with coordinated movements.
What I really need is a way to give the secondary motors a similar definition to the standard [stepper_x] and [stepper_y] configuration that RatOS uses, but without conflicting with or overwriting the primary system. With CoreXY kinematics, the system would automatically calculate when both motors need to move together for straight X/Y movements instead of just diagonal paths.
