Just a question about steppers. If I tell it to move 10 steps, and then on the very next loop the conditions are met for it to move -5 steps, will it finish out the 10 before going back 5 steps in the other direction, or will it stop what it is doing and follow the newest command?

Stepper motor, do new commands override old ones before they are complete?
