Using 1.8 Extruder in a 0.9 Delta Setup

Hey guys

Actually I am bit stranded. I am building a Delta myself and now I´m quite near to the first print. But I cant figure out how to configure the steps/mm seperately for the Extruder in the actual nightly of Marlin 2.0.

Older versions seemed to have these options. Some saying configuring E_STEPS in configuration_adv.h and others mentioned rows in configuration.h that dont exist anymore.

I am using a 32bit board with no eeprom support, so it would be kinda handy to set the steps/mm in the firmware.
The workaround would be adding a M92 in the startcode of my slicer but I want to stay indipendent with my printer.

Cheers

Nevermind.

I figured it out.

I added:

#define E_FULL_STEPS_PER_ROTATION 200
#define E_MICROSTEPS 16

to my config and then calculated the steps/mm needed for my geared drive. Seems to work

Cheers
