Autocalibrate getting skipped

We run a calibration routine at the beginning of each program, buy have been running into an issue of it being randomly skipped. IT gets into the Case just fine, Load the probe & set the tip angle. Then it skips the auto calibrate line and goes straight to the Increment move (where it errors out for axis limits). But it seems to be completely random, same program / same machine, it will work fine one time, then fail the next run, with no rhyme or reason apparent to me.

The parameter sets are typically set up for each program specifically (copied this snippet out of a template).

I believe you can use all tips and set to used in program. This will miss any tips in the program hidden in a group or as a variable in a loop (at least in the versions currently in use here).

If a group is closed, the program won't recognize the probefile during calibration, but the program will alert me if the tip is hidden and uncalibrated? Interesting to know.
