Just trying out the new "Order For Shorter Links" which is something I've been wanting for ages. But it doesn't seem to work how I would have expected it too. This is a very basic example, but I have a 50mm tool set to do 20mm stepovers. The first 'front' cut is correct, however the second 'back' cut ends up doing pretty much a full width of cut, ignoring the 20mm step over.
I assume it is essentially just generating the old style tool path which works from one side across, but then changing the order of the cuts? Rather than creating a new tool path that should be working from each side in, until it meets in the middle.
I have added some screenshots below. Hopefully this makes sense. I was looking forward to this new toolpath, but as it's currently implemented, I can't see it being useful at all, as you seem to have no control over that cut at the back!
