I printed a Method X slice, the fans behaved as expected.

Looks good !
In the future, could you consider making a base extruder definition for all Method printers, and inherit from it ? Their definition looks extremely similar. I don't see any inheriting extruder definition though, so maybe there is a reason for not doing it ?

@pkuiper-ultimaker I rebased the changes on 5.9 branch. If you have future PRs, please don't forget to base them on 5.9 |
I assumed that inheriting extruder ptofiles was not possible, because I have not seen examples. But perhaps it works. I will give it a try. |
The Method machines actively cool the nozzle at the end of a layer switch. Use the new cool_during_extruder_switch feature to enable this behavior and remove it from the start and end GCode template.
We also command the extruder to go to the standby temperature at the end of a layer to start cooling down. Lastly the heatup and 5 seconds wait has been removed from the start extruder GCode. This behavior is redundant and is already managed by the switch over logic.

Test together with this Cura 5.9 test version that contains fixes to the cooling logic: https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/actions/runs/11254215837
