*RC3 build. I'll give the latest 3.5 build & the M98 a try next week.

I have a MB6HC running 3.5beta3 in CNC mode and use a custom M6.g file to handle tool changes. My issue is with M291 commands not blocking as expected when M6 is called during a job. My macro has 3 M291 calls to pause the script at various points and allow me to manually change the tool and use a stationary bitsetter to adjust my WCS Z.

; M6 Call for tool change

G53 G1 Z{move.axes[2].max-1} F1200                              ; Move to Z Max-1
M11                                                             ;Turn off Vac
M291 P"Tool Change" R"Move to BtStr" S3     ;Start Confirmation
       ; 			---Move to BitSetter---
 G53 G1 X{global.BtStrXLoc} Y{global.BtStrYLoc} F4000       ; Move to BitSetter location
       ;			---Probing---
   M291 P"Tool Change" R"Probe new tool" S3 Z1               ;Start Bitsetter Probe Confirmation

     M208  S1 Z0                                                ; reset Z-axis limits before probe
     G38.2 K0 Z-120 F100                                        ;(BitSetter Probe 0)

     G10 L20 P9 Z{global.BtStrZTrig}                            ;Set SB-Z=0 in WCS 9

        ;   		---Set tool offsets---
     G91
     G1 Z15 F500                                                ;Clear the top
     G90                                                        ; Absolute positioning

     G10  K1 L20 Z{global.BtStrZTrig+15}                        ;Set WCS Z0

     G53 G1 X{global.BtStrXLoc+25} Y{global.BtStrYLoc+40} F4000 ;Clear the Button XY
     G53 G1 Z{move.axes[2].max-1.5} F1200                       ; Move to Z Max - 1.5

     M208 S1 Z{move.axes[2].workplaceOffsets[0]}                ; Set Zmin to Probe SB=0 From new WCS Z

  M291 P"Tool Change" R"Resume" S3                   ;CONFIRM SET WCS XY

  M10                                                            ;Turn on Vac

If the macro is run while the machine is idle It behaves as expected, but if it is called durning a job, the macro behaves as if only the last M291 is blocking, and the first two are run as if they where a non blocking type. I have tried various M400 calls without luck. I even split the macro into tfree,tpre, and tpost (instead of M6) each with it's own M291 and it behaves exactly the same. Is there some kind of formatting error I am missing? Why is this working while idle?

@baird1fa Any chance you can explain the second change to the post? I made the circular plane addition, but I can't quite follow what is described in the second image/change.

Thanks in advance!
