Possible bug in 12

I was using a 4mm endmill in aluminium and the cutting tool was used for the trochoidal for the main cutting, but also the same tool used for drilling. When it came to the drilling section the set depth of 0.5mm was ignored and did a full depth cut of 7mm, stalling my machine. I had to re-program the CAM file to add another tool (same tool, different settings) just for drilling and set the depth to 0.5mm and ignored the tool change when it came up during the machining. I was lucky that no dam…

edit, you beat me to it LOL
