Filament track switch: Load both Main and Aux Nozzle at start of Print

Just had to cancel a print halfway through due to the Filament Track switch blocking the second/ aux in/ outlet for some reason. Cancelled the Print, undloaded the Main Nozzle Filament and now it seems to be working again.

It would’ve been just nice if both nozzles would be loaded at the start of the print once, instead of the aux nozzle to be loaded mid print for the first time when needed, so problems like these don’t occur mid print and potentially ruin a whole print.

You could force it right now by adding a small bit of primitive geometry in an unused corner of the build plate and setting it to the material you intend for the aux extruder to use.

I agree overall, though, pre-loading both filaments initially probably makes sense, although it’s only beneficial in some fairly specific circumstances.
