Rogue Tool Path on Finish Pass

I am hoping some one can help me out here.

I have a program written in BobCam for a 2-Axis milling operation. The program simulates perfectly in the Bobcam simulator. But when I save the G-Code and load it into my Hurco VM-10 you can see where it just cuts through part. Now I have done some trouble shooting already. The program currently has no peck depths, and no other ops to it, just the end milling of the scroll shape to keep it simple. I have confirmed by dry run on the hurco that this rogue path happens on the finish path.

Any Ideas on what is causing this rogue path? It looks like a blend move or something, but honestly I am just starting to learn the details of Bobcam. All suggestions are welcome!! Pictures below to clarify the above.

Are you using ARC FIT in your toolpath?

Do you know where ARC FIT setting is within the BobCAM software?

Depending what type of toolpath you are using (advanced rough, z level rough, pencil, ect..) under the "Posting" well, here picture is worth a thousand words.

anyway, is that box checked? If it is try computing and posting the toolpath without arcfit checked and see if the rouge path doesn't go away
