G-code M117 ':' incompatible with Ender 3 Pro 1.1.6.2 LCD about autotowersgenerator HOT 5 CLOSED

Great catch! I've removed the ':' character from the output strings. If nothing else, it makes the strings shorter, which is better for limited displays.

I'll wait to put out another release for now until one of us gets this plugin working on Cura 5.

Thank you again!

This is something I wasn't aware of. This may be why @5axes made the M117 commands in his scripts optional. I'll have to do the same or remove them altogether.

Thank you for the update, @Fishhooks1945! I'll try to address this.

For what it's worth, M117's in the gcode will cause a dremel 3D45 printer to end prematurely. It will say 'build completed' when it hits this line, and stop. Not really a problem with AutoTowers, but I'm commenting so if someone with my machine has this problem, they will find it with enough googling.

ironically, @5axes doesn't have that option to turn off M117's in TempFanTower.py, which might have saved me some frustration if I saw that option.

Oh, jeez. I just realized I never responded to this.

I've added an option to turn off LCD display messages (M117). This should be available in my latest release (2.4.1), which you can access here: https://github.com/kartchnb/AutoTowersGenerator/releases/tag/v2.4.1

Just download the .curapackage that corresponds to your version of Cura and drag and drop it onto a running Cura window to install it. You will then be able to turn off the LCD messages by going to the AutoTowersGenerator settings menu.

If you don't mind letting me know that it worked, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!
