I have played with mach's trajectory planner when rob started working on the new TP. I actually used linuxcnc to show what mach was doing. I used the step/dir output from mach -> mesa 7i80 encoder input -> linuxcnc. Not only was there acceleration constraint violations - its path following show

I'll take a look at this tonight. I've made a few changes to how the optimization works that may have had some unintended consequences. Blends behaving like exact stop mode sounds like what would happen if the optimization was aborted early. With any luck it will be a simple fix, since I haven't ch
