I installed Orca Slicer based on recommendations here. While checking Printer settings i realized there is one additional settings tab “multimaterial” which BS does not have. There is no OS wiki entry for these yet.
One of the settings i am interested in is "“purge into prime tower”. I think this can be possible in BS by manually selecting prime tower as “purge into this object” but can not be set as default.
The reason i am interested in is the volume of the poops which i have to get rid of. Prime towers are more compact that i will need less trips to common recycle bins which are four blocks away.
The cons i can guess may be;
Needs bigger prime tower>less build plate estate for printing.
Taller>more risk to topple>needs brim to avoid
More wasted filament if the dimensions are not set correct.
What is your experience?
