99% of the "magic" in 3D printing happens in the slicer. All the printer controller needs to do is move the steppers in a very stupid way.Acceleration limits and such are all done in the slicer. Notice that the g-code files for some parts are MILLIONS of lines of g-code that do very tiny movements
I still argue that the only thing LCNC lacks is "works out of the box".
