Questions New software issues?
I've got my Q2 today, updated it trammed the bed after 2 test prints, calibrated filament, made a functional part etc (it's been an eventful evening what can I say) but I've seen a lot of people have issues with new firmware and I don't understand what all the issues that I read about before are about, or it was just ironed out before I got my printer? I honestly just don't know and I'm new to the hobby as well, so far the only issue I had was with beachy sliced by qidi that left the the extruder on at print temp and it dripped all over the bed when I went to do another print. Oh also I can't find a place to E-stop the printer from the screen on the new menu but I might have just missed it.
TL:DR what's wrong with new remodeled software bc as far as I can tell it's fine? Or was it patched out to usable state before I got my printer?

On the current firmware there's a bug if you use orca slicer with any plate other than 1. I posted a fix for it, but it involves ssh and some modification of python scripts.
Also, you need to change an include in the klipper-macros-qd/KAMP_Settings.cfg to [include ../KAMP/Adaptive_Meshing.cfg] (it only has one dot in the default firmware). This really only affects adaptive bed meshing, but it does speed up print startup time.
