See below image of the 2024 and 2022 versions. I haven't tested with all versions but this should show that there is something wrong in the latest. The 2024 version doesn't seem to subtract the infill from the part just creates it around the part.</p><p>You should be able to replicate this yourself. I have used the skull which I simply used the shell with 2mm wall thickness and a basic hex infill.
