4 axis drill issue

Recommended Posts

Trying to do a 4 axis drill(rotary axis, axis control, rotary axis positioning) in 2018 and it will not accept half of my holes when I click them. I tried going back to X8, and it is doing the same thing. I don't remember this being an issue in X7, or previous versions. What's going on here? I have 13 holes equally spaced at 22.5° and Mcam is only acknowledging 7 of them. Not even in the order clicked.

Here's what posts out if I do 2 ops to get all 13 holes:

It looks like it is breaking the WCS at the point that it goes to the bottom. Is this a post issue? If so how do I fix it? I've never had this issues with this post in previous versions of Mcam.
