    About Z-removability

    Unloading a packed build platform can be challenging when parts are packed tightly. They may be obstructing each other in a way that would require you to move multiple parts at the same time. This test checks whether the current packing can be fully unloaded part by part by only moving one part at once, and by only removing them vertically.

    Example for two parts where neither can be removed along the z-axis without a collision
