no you cannot (and it changes direction using some weird algo... I would love to at least be able to tell it to always go in one direction
) ...
you have issue with priming the nozzle, just before you change layer you probably retract and then there is not enough pressure in the nozzle when it starts new layer ... reducing retraction or introducing nozzle prime (afaik s3d don't know how to prime nozzle but there are firmwares where you can setup auto retract and prime so that might work for you) or using firmware that knows how to do a pressure advance (linear advance) can help .. for start reduce retraction significantly and maybe turn on wipe/coasting if you get blobs with retraction lowered
