Simplify3D Tool Change Script

Simplify3D Tool Change Script This script is based on a thread at the Simplify3D forum, specifically a post by user blaknite7. My version of Simplify3D doesn't parse placeholder variables for tool temperatures in the tool change script, so I used my absolute printing temperatures instead. A clear benefit of this approach is near full elimination of oozing and drips on prints. However, print time on multicolour layers are near doubled in printing time. Be warned! There are two versions of the script here. I've used the M133 script on my Sailfish firmware Wanhao Duplicator 4S printer because it doesn't honor the M109 command. So, I use two M104 commands followed by a M133 command. The second version uses a M109 command as designed by blaknite7. I highly recommend using MakeALot's two colour calibration cubes to calibrate your dual nozzle printing. The objects enclosed here are just dummies.
