· GCODE Scripts for OctoPrint and the UM2+?
UltiGCode uses volumetric e-values, i assume, that you have changed the GCode-Flavor in Cura to "Reprap/Marlin", right?
The remaining problem is, that Octoprint has (obviously) no clue about the temperatures that you have defined in Cura (as Mark Walker said: this part is executed after the start script from Octoprint).
You can add values for M109 and M190 to your Octoprint script, but only with fixed values that you have to change for different materials.
As an alternative: you can (pre-) heat buildplate and nozzle manually with Octoprint before you start the print.
But that's sooo inconvenient..., and i'm still not sure about your intention...?
It's so much easier to use the start/end-code from within the slicer.

Yes I did set to regular Reprap/Marlin.
And you are right - manually heating up defeats the purpose of having a remote device taking care of the print. If I resort to that I could as well walk up to the printer and start the print from the sd card.
Maybe I'll do something in between. Like set a fixed value in OctoPrint and let the gcode heatup value override it when the print begins. It will only break when the difference between my fixed temp and the gcode temp differ greatly, but ok, you can't have it all
In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
