Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I changed the feeder and now the filament gets pulled from the opposite direction of the gear si it extrudes backwards.

Are you looking for hardware support?

No response

Describe the feature you want

Just an option in the menu to invert the extrusion direction.

You can inverse the stepper motor directiong by changing its wiring: https://printingit3d.com/how-to-reverse-the-direction-of-an-extruder-motor/
That might be much easier than implementing this in the firmware (if possible at all).

That's what I did, but couldn't this be implemented by multiplying the extrusion by -1?
It can be done by editing the G-code and multiplying the extrusion by -1, so it should be easy to implement.

I could try to add the code, but I don't know where the code that controls the extrussion is.
