Zipper merging also always seems to assume that there are no trucks/buses/trailers and that everyone isn't tailgating so closely that they can read the Vin# of the car in front of them...

I was referring to the waveyness in the center, though the warping on the esges is partly caused by both the oils and the cooling shrinkage, I believe.
The uniform buckling of the layer in the middle of the sheet is what I'm leaning on, but I don't believe that your fan speed is too high, or there would be more seperation between layers as the filament would cool too much before adhering to the layer below.
I believe there are test STLs that assist in Dialing in your settings for printing plates in particular, but I'm avoiding printing surfaces that large until I get an enclosure built.
I'd say your print time per layer might be too high, aince the filament looks to be contracting off of the plate as it cools. I'd see if there was a way to speed-up the print time of each layer, or break up the plate's large surface area with holes or other features to dissapate the stress as it cools.
According to my lore, a couple of species were picked up with the migratory fleet that ended up in the remote world that is my current setting. Since landing, starting a mega-terraforming project, and the collapse of both the galactic civililization as a whole, and of the local variety, what's left of each species is more or less in survival mode.
Of the 4, there are humans, spread out among the many lands and islands of the world.
The Vabvva, a moth-like race that no-one has h#ard from since tge collapse, as they were the only ones capable of breathing the miasma that covers the lower altitudes.
The other 2 races have since formed a symbiotic relatiinship and are called the Rru & Tarryu. While within their secluded homeland, the small Lizards half of the species run things, but the wolf-like Tarryu people run things while within their nomadic ships, as the Rru are needed to run their Storm Engines.
Other Sapient apecies have begun to emerge, many since the Great Collapse. Human once, they've under several transformations to become what they are today, namely Chimerics.
Chimerics generally fall into 2 catagories, those that seem to have maintained some semblance of what made them people, and the Dire, who are little more than beasts. Of those still welcome in polite society, there are the Nephlan, the Tephjan, and the Vaizan.
The Nephlan are varied in appearance, but tend to be shorter in stature and have rough, scaled hides that resemble a pengolin. They are quite resistant to the wayward energies of the world.
The Tephjan are often referred to as 'Harpies', but are quite varied in their bird-like appearances. Many tend to fued with themselves based on whichever type of bird groups they belong to, but are usually quite welcome in ports and on ships that sail between the islands.
The Vaizon never leave their Forest-home, making them quite like elves in that regard, but with an extreme amount of various animal features that they seem to be able to change at a whim. They have an almost unnerving determination to serve their deity, Fuengthyrith'ta. Literally: She Whose Eyes Beheld the Stars, the being who enabled the creation of all chimerics through a ritual that the Vaizon oversee and enforce,
That's the main ones, anyway. The setting lets me create new chimerics as needed, each leaning between Dire and civilized based on how disruptive they are to their immediate environment.
"Dicks out for Jesus Any%" runs, when?
Nothing says "Death Cult" quite like the prominant display of the murder weapon used against their leader.
It's almost like it's a suicidal death-cult.
I mean, the Israelis kind of had something similar for a bunch of pagers, but instead of bricking the device, they just violently exploded.
Pretty sure most of the Walking Dead cast would never have survived an initial outbreak of gingivitis, let alone zombies...
