The "I" value that I'm getting in the G76 is too large, and the simulation is showing passes at the proper depth. The CAD/CAM is showing the thread peak at 5.884, which is where the profile finishing pass leaves off, but the code I'm getting has a thread peak of 6.816 so I'm cutting mostly air with the threading tool.

I guess I wasn't understanding that I value. I thought it was a diameter value. It looks like that G76 code is correct. It must be an issue with how linuxcnc expects the tool X touchoff.
Nice that you got the G30 sorted. I've been busy with other projects, so haven't had yet time to get back to this.
The I value in G76 is a bit weird one indeed. Took me a while to understand it.
I is a thead peak offset from the drive line. But as the drive line can be whereever you say it is, I value changes accordingly.
Actual code to calculate the I value looks like this:
var peakOffset = (getParameter("operation:outerClearance_value") * 2) - ((x * 2)+ (threadDepth * 2)); peakOffset = (getParameter("operation:turningMode") === "outer") ? -peakOffset : peakOffset;
My post is failing. "Unsupported drilling orientation." I tried the tormach post and it worked.

I didn't use my lathe for a few months, and now for some reason I'm getting an M4 where I should have an M3 and it doesn't put in the D4000 into the G96 Line. I had to re-download the post, but I don't know what else could have changed. When I drill I get an M3, but all the other turning tools I get M4. I haven't changed those tools in the library at all, and the simulation shows everything in the proper orientation.
