Poor implementations #1

Interesting script. But why is it implemented in such a way that it adds empty passes instead of modifying the coordinates directly to ensure smooth extrusion? The current approach, unfortunately, is not useful due to the lack of compensation for nozzle leakage during empty head travel. And it doesn't matter that it's only about 0.1mm, it will still be very visible on the print.

What do you mean by modifying the coordinates directly ? The only way I thought would make sense is to move the toolhead that 0.1mm each time it needs to change direction. Could you suggest a way to apply that movement without that leakage or any other artifacts that may happen when applying the backlash compensation during the actual print move?

This project is basically abandoned, so I can still try to make the necessary changes you suggested, but I'll appretiate a PR if you feel good with python
