Hello, I'm quite puzzled. I downloaded a few weeks ago a OpenSCAD model from Thingiverse for a box with a lid (Thingiverse #2821985 <https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2821985>). In the past I created a few models from this script without any problems. Suddenly, when trying it for another sized box, I'm getting a very strange result. misformed boxFast-CSG, and fast-csg-faster) but curretnly they are off. Sine the last (successful use), I downloaded a new version of OpenScad (OpenSCAD <https://www.openscad.org/>version 2025.02.16.ai23471 (git 3d6fec950) The model was rendered in OpenSCAD <https://www.openscad.org/>version 2024.08.18.ai20248 (both versions are Appimages). I experimented a bit with some settings (fast-csg, and fast-csg-faster) but currently they are off. I'm wondering what could influence the result of a rendering in such a manner? The code is unaltered from the original. I'll attach the script I'm using. Any help is much appreciated

Here is a quick update. I just found an older version of OpenCAD (2012.01 also AppImage) on my system and rendered the same script and surprisingly, the rendering and STL creation was successful. Curious what the reason could be that the new versions 'screwing' the script up (libraries perhaps)? Any explanation w/o diving too deep?

No actual solution, but I'm using 2025.03.02 (git ce2b6f207) and it builds ok with that, so perhaps try a later build?
