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?

Now that my question has been answered, I'm turning my attention to the PID portion and creating a new topic.
