I wanted to print a temperature tower, but the custom Gcode entered in prusa slicer doesn't seem to actually change the temperature of the nozzle? It just uses the temperature that's configured on "other layers" under the filament tab.

I'm attempting gaaZolee's temperature tower, using the custom Gcode supplied with it, in the "before layer change" part of custom Gcode in prusa slicer.

Have you looked in the generated g-Code? Is it actually there on layer change?

I tried a different tower from the prusa website, with similar Gcode (but not identical) for layer change, and that worked just fine. So I'm thinking something is messed up in the code example of the other.

Again, look in the generated g-Code. Just open it with a normal text editor and search for the Z value where you expect a change. See if it is there.
