idea for multimaterial purged blocks

Hi, i'm a ultimaker 2 user, i recently watched multi material prusa 3 videos...
impresive but waste blocks is very downside of this issue..

but it could be better solution to this... maybe the purging priming blocks g-coded as a lego type bricks or something to connecteble blocks.. so people can connect it to do something new... better ideas can thinkable....
what do you think?

Re: idea for multimaterial purged blocks

It would take some very clever g code to make something useful without adding to the waste volume.

The sparse fill elements would not be very productive whilst colour change at lego bump levels may be over productive.

To average this out the model and waste pile heights would have to be different. Further complicating the g code. Also the waste pile real estate would be larger

When will you have a demo version ready lol
