I only recently built a Kossel mini for a friend but am planning a Delta machine for myself.
Perhaps this is a noobish question to which the answer should be obvious but it has me perplexed.
It makes sense that a cartesian printer uses G codes to send the extruder to X,Y and Z positions but not a Delta.
It seems that a lot of calculations are being done at run time by using them. It would make more sense to me to have the delta parameters input to the slicer which then outputs codes for the A,B and C carriage positions to be used at run time. Or have I missed something?
