Slicer printing organic supports in different colors?

I'm currently torturing my MK4/MMU3 by printing a 5 color Minion Dave, and I'm watching it go to the trouble of switching filament colors to print the organic supports. Wouldn't it be a lot fewer color changes if it just printed the supports in whatever color happens to be already loaded? Have I missed a setting?

If you disable the Wipe Tower under "multiple extruders", you should get what you want.

I guess I only imagined seeing it load green filament for the supports. Apparently in the model part that only has blue and yellow, when it alternates layers it looks green, but I watched it for a while and it definitely didn't load the green filament even though the supports currently look green :-).

🙂 When playing with the setting, I noticed the same. Sometimes the sliced model was displayed with colorful supports, sometimes these looked solid. The number of filament changes didn't change, though.
