Hmm this seems just right. But I think the feedrate should be taken into acount and then used some normalized value.
So if we Have G1 move 10mm long with F10 that should be equal to G1 move 100mm long with F100. And if we precalculate total length(normalized) we can in runtime predict time to end (or percentage). With this the estimated time can be precise even if speed override is used. This should work until some probe cycle is involved. Canned cycles isn't problematic and subs too.. (just need to execute it) But Probe cycle and some other ones can be problematic. Slavko.
