Currently the formula works only for lengths of 100. If you do anything other than 100 the formula breaks and you will get a bad esteps calculation. the formula is this:
(steps taken) / (actual length extruded) = (new steps/mm value)
where:
(steps/mm value) x (length of filament extruded) = (steps taken)
(length from extruder to mark pre extrusion) – (length from extruder to mark after extrusion) = (actual length extruded)
Currently the length of filament extruded is hard coded to 100 in your formula. I found this because my printer is under extruding due to this formula
