Our MachSim support is very tightly integrated into our post, so to do it right, we only offer our MachSim implementations using our own post products.

Also noting that the post in question would work in the version of Mastercam for which it was created. So I'm aware that Maintenance and added costs are generally unpopular, but it becomes difficult for us to chase the impact on the post from Mastercam version updates without a program in place to account for the extra work.

Just noting that we have enhanced our post engine over the past few years to overcome these rounding issues that we feel are native to NCI/MP. So we consider our methods an engine enhancement vs. a bug correction and therefore available to clients who are active on our PostCare maintenance program.

From that Docs page @crazy^millman listed, I just want to highlight that we have videos that explain all the standard misc values used in our post engine https://postability.com/miscvalues

This was a rough-in to handle 2 end of line special characters in a simple way. Mastercam MP has a way of easily adding an end of line character, and if memory serves a way of adding a 2nd end of line character that is less than intuitive. This was done to allow 2 characters or more and/or a character and a special UNIX end of line format easier to handle. While Windows uses CR/LF, Unix was LF only. You can suppress the CR/LF then add the LF back in, but what is you need the LF and a $ at the end of every line, etc. Did someone just whisper Biesse RT480 in my ear? I thought this was a clean way to rough-in special end of line character and line feed handling. And I'm not sure it's ever been used. So, I agree it looks ridiculous, but a lot of careful thought and planning went in there.

As a follow up on this, while Programinator is a Postability post user, his company has not licensed our optional MachSim add-on, so the issues are related to the internal simulation.

Generally if your toolpath has enough data to go cleanly "over the top" our post would have B will switch solutions.

You can certainly reach out to me using the contact email on our website if you've like us to offer suggestions on your issue. I don't often stop by here, but happened to see your post today.

Just wanted to mention that Postability is more than just me, although that title made me smile. We've assembled a great team here including a senior applications specialist who you should meet Bill. Message me if you would like an introduction.

I don't believe this is a Postability post.

Stick to Peck with G83. Complex deep-hole G69 is not in the G-Code set for the 8065.
