Fixing "G-code path conflicts" slicer errors

Fixing G-code path conflicts slicer errors

A G-code path conflict means the slicer found a toolpath that collides with another object, a wipe tower, the print bed boundary, or another generated path.

This most often happens on crowded plates, multi-color prints, or models placed very close to the edge of the bed.

Quick fixes

Try these first:

Move the model farther away from other objects.
Move the model away from the edge of the build plate.
If the print uses a wipe tower, give the wipe tower more space.
Remove crowded duplicate objects and try slicing again.
If the model has thin or broken geometry, repair it and re-upload the file.

Multi-color prints

Multi-color prints can create extra purge and travel paths. If the error appears after adding more filament slots, check the wipe tower position and the space around painted models.

For wipe tower and flush settings, see How to configure wipe tower and flush volumes.

Crowded plates

Automatic arrange can help when objects are too close together, but it may not fix every conflict. If slicing still fails:

Delete unnecessary duplicates.
Split the job across multiple plates.
Rotate tall or awkward models before arranging.
Slice one plate at a time.

If it still fails

If the same model keeps failing after you move it and reduce crowding, contact support and include:

The file you tried to slice.
The selected slicer engine.
The selected machine, print, and filament profiles.
The slice error text or task ID.
