Override PrusaSlicer Layer Height and Extrusion Width Limits and Ratio checks

Hello,

I'm doing some experimental work using my MK3S as the motion system for extruding a liquid resin into a gel support bath. In my work I've discovered that the geometry of a single extrusion of this material is different to how 3D printed extrusions are normally modelled. My material has a typical ratio of extrusion width/layer height of ~0.67 which is opposite to how we normally model 3d printer extrusions where the width is larger than the height.

I know this will limit the geometries I can produce but I am wondering if it possible to override the safety/print quality checks in PrusaSlicer in order to allow me to model a more representative extrusion geometry for this application? I will also keep in mind to maintain reasonable modelled volumetric flow rates to avoid stressing the extruder stepper driver.

Thanks,

Ben.

You need to post over on the Prusa slicer GitHub for this sort of thing, you will probably get much more help there. This is a user to user forum and while there are guys here who can compile the firmware the devs ‘live’ over there.
