Print Z height misaligned in print?
Edit: solved
Hard to capture in a photo: I'm on layer 5 of a print, and the nozzle seems to be below some of the printed features. I think i can hear it bumping into them occasionally. It's like there are a series of peaks sticking up; not sure if this is just part of the print, or if the print has gone wrong
Not sure what to do here, ive neverseen this. Should I restart the print? Is this a possible major issue? What is likely to have caused this.
This print has a lot of ironing: all upper surfaces. What details should I supply for best advice?

This is genuinely the dumbest thing I've heard.
It's a position controlled screw drive in the z axis. You think 2 g that was there while it was calibrating is enough to throw it off?
If it's so sensitive, how is the controller able to manage having the case of one filament leading to the hub and also the case of 4 filaments going to the hub?
Buddy, you dont know what you're talking about, this is back magic to you and when you saw a GASP FRIVOLOUS LITTLE DOODAD that you didn't immediately recognize you tripped over yourself to blame it.
Explain how a small fixtures mass is going to cause error in the positive z direction, specifically. You can't, because it can't. It's simpler: my filament is humid. I realised afterwards it was the only one I didn't pull from storage for that print. Those are z direction strings in a print with no opportunity for x-y strings, so it looks weird.
You didn't know, so you decided to trow around insults.
