Post Gondola moves double in the x direction

Hello all,

So I went to messing with some settings to be able to have more drawing area. The actual machine width is all the same but now its acting very strange. I am using an 8ft(2438.4mm) x 8ft(2438.4mm) mounting board. From mounting the motors I have a machine width of 2337mm and a machine height of 2388mm. I am drawing on 4ft(1219mm) sheets of paper. All of these are correct. I have been using this same set up and it has been working very well for me. But since I messed with it and then tried putting it back the gondola is more or less moving double the distance and I cannot figure it out.

I'm sure it's just something simple as per usual.
I am saving and then uploading which seems to be the way it is supposed to be done.

PolargraphSDs usually have 200 steps per rev, rather than 400.

Best off editing your default.properties.txt file directly, and changing the 400.0 to 200.0.
