Is it possible to move several motors “simultaneously” in klipper externally or internally, and in what ways? For example, I have 3 Z-axis motors, and I want to move 2 of them by 10 mm, without waiting for each of them to travel this distance. Thanks!

Do not [stepper\_z1](https://www.klipper3d.org/Config_Reference.html#stepper_z1) do the trick?

Yes, that’s how I have them configured.
