Rework Dual Extrusion Wizard

Is there any chance the dual extrusion wizard/prime pillar could be updated to support more extruders? Currently when trying to print with 3 colors (3in1 mixing hotend), after setting up all 3 processes, if prime pillar is enabled, it will only prime up to 2 colors, if a layer has 3 colors, it only primes one of them.

This is a fantastic idea. I've seen that, at least with the Prusa MMU, the purge block idea is pretty inefficient even if it's more adaptable than the S3D prime pillar. I thought their support team had helped others in the past with a script that can be run to optimize with the MMU. Is the MMU the machine you're specifically wanting better priming with?

It becomes truly annoying.
At the price of the license we should get better.
This software is unable to print more than two colors.

It is heartbreaking that S3D is so inefficient.
Problems solved using Filaswitch.
I will not advertise for S3D. :cry: :cry:

Not only does it need to be updated to work with more colors, it needs to be updated to do color mixing. Hopefully, they're working on it.
