Weird behaviour with Pause At Height plugin / Cura 2.61 (same with 2.5) / UM2+

Posted (edited) · Weird behaviour with Pause At Height plugin / Cura 2.61 (same with 2.5) / UM2+

Any and all help appreciated, as I really need to get this working!

The Pause At Height plugin seems to do this weird thing where it skips layers after the resume, has anybody else seen this?

This little test model is just a simple cylinder. Does the code look right? Or is it 1mm out? Or should this not matter seeing as LAYER21 has the correct Z value?

Also check out what it looks like when the gcode is loaded back into Cura - it has this strange really thick layer which extends down into the already printed part. This may just be graphical, however I thought I'd mention it in case it's relevant.
