"pin z2_uart_pin is an alias for z1_uart_pin"

Trying to get an SKRat board to work on a VC3.

front left Z is backwards when using this, blindly subbed in the new config without checking directions and snapped of the rod bearing strut while homing! Doh!

Why didn't you just update and use the 3z config? deleted the other message to avoid future confusion

thats what i did, and tried to home immediately after I should have checked directions before doing so stepper dir that is minion z0 might run in the opposite direction, in case the new config needs a tweak , I'm not sure since i have a V-core

Yeah because that's not the configs fault. The default v-core-3 template has them all run in the same direction. so that means one of your wires is reversed 🙂 That's not a property of the board config, that would be a printer.cfg thing. the stepper direction does not change because the board config changes. (you can't invert pins in an alias. An alias is only an alias)
