Best I can tell, my z-seam after a hop is under extruding? I tried looking at all3dp's troubleshooting page, but couldn't find this specific issue. Can someone fill me in on the name of this so I can best Google it? I'd also be happy to take pointers, but I do try to be self sufficient.

I can’t quite tell but it looks to me like it’s doing a turn-around there? Like instead of doing a complete circle for the inner wall it’s turning to do a continuous path for the rest of the print.

What slicer are you using? I only know cura and have never had this problem but I’d try doing less than 100% fill rate which seems to have an indirect effect to cause it to prefer cleaner paths for walls. I’m sure there are some other wall related settings to play with.

I'm using cura. There's actually one seam on the inner and one on the outer. Attaching a pic of one half of the outer seam. The other is on a corner that was kinda hard to get a pic of. I'm printing another copy of it now, so I'll try to watch it while it hits that seam.
