    So, I built this thing: 2606897 and this is basically 3D printer. It haves 4 materials to print with and 8 commands, skip 1 pix., skip 5, start new layer, print with 1 material, 2 material, 3 material, 4 material and finish print. Anyway, I want to write those commands into filt memory by changing filt ctype but then memory bank will be same size as printing area, which is not acceptable. Since Im newbie idk how I can write few commands into one pixel.

    You can have multiple commands packed into 1 FILT cell. You have 8 commands, so each one would take up 3 bits. A FILT cell is 30 29 bits wide, so you can pack 9 instructions into each cell. In order to extract each packed command, you can use red/blue shifts in FILT.
