Autocalibration and bed mesh compensation issues

[buggy]

Hey guys I feel really bad for flooding the forums with posts but i just can not seem to get a successful print after my upgrade. Im trying to solve the issue of getting a good first layer using auto calibration and bed mesh compensation but it doesnt seem to be working for me. Ive changed the radius as well as probe spacing but still when i go to print it seems too close to the bed in spots (see photo).

Ive been trying for days trying to figure it out and its extremely frustrating because i know how amazing this setup (duet wifi and fsr with trick laser plate) should be but i feel like im missing something. I will attach the bed height map and a photo of my first layer to see if someone can help me out. my auto calibration returns a consistent deviation of .02 and i have checked the trigger height of my fsr across all the probing spots for the auto calibration. This ranged from -.180 near fsr to -.265 max. the center of z had a trigger height of -.242 which im using as a z offset. Should i instead use a average of all the trigger heights ive calculated and use that as my z offset?

Why is your probe radius only 100? If you've got a v2 or v3 that you're working with, that should be 135. Also, try doing a 16 point calibration - 10 on the outer, 6 on the inner.

With all the headaches ive been having with my first layer i shrank the bed mesh radius and added more probe points to see if that would improve the accuracy, i will add more probe points for the auto calibration.
