Not following G-codes?

I very clearly have a G30 at the start of my Gcode file, but it isn't doing it? Skipping straight to printing. Canceled and tried again and it did the same thing. Full startup bit copied below:

G90
M83
M106 S0
M104 S200 T0
M109 S200 T0
;G28 ; home all axes
M107
M83 ; relative extruder mode
T0 ; select extruder 0
M116 ; wait?
;M98 Pbed.g
G1 X0 Y0 Z4 F4000
G30
G1 Z0.35 F4000
G1 E-3.2000 F3000
G1 Z0.600 F15000

I recreated the file for other reasons and now it is fine. All of my other files have been fine on this issue. Strange.

Did you exported it with Slic3r?

Sometimes, when I upload the g-code (from Slic3r) to the printer, the reported height of the object is not correct, sometimes even missing.
I export it again and re-upload it and it's correct.

Now I take attention to the upload reported variables, and have no fail since.

I am using S3D. Thanks for the heads-up. Yeah, sometimes I get all 3 time estimates, sometimes I only get 1. Sometimes the first layer time is the same as the print duration. Haven't had the thing with skipping G30 again so far. The robot.g from RRP has the same issue on time estimates for me, that is from SLic3r.
