Extruder Runtime error

[jTr]

Runtime error '9': Subscript out of range.
Have successfully used extruder in the past, but don't recall this problem before.
- Tried a couple versions of Post Processor, all "inch" no "arcs"
- Tried different Zzero points

no luck yet...

Any clues?

Two factors to consider:
- Profile is very deep- up to .77" variance from max to min height
- Profile position used to work with max height of profile at 0, and all other levels in the negative zero range as viewed in VCPro, as illustrated in the help data for the extruder.
- Tried centering the profile vectors on the zero, leaving some vectors in the -.375 range and max height sections in the +.375 range.

Upon shifting profile into the centered or fully positive range, the extruder successfully converts file. Now having issues getting height set - did a short test and found it is not cutting into work piece properly - Zzero'd to top of workpiece, and profile only is cut for what fell into the negative zone on VCPro screen. While this makes some sense, it also suggests to work properly, the full profile should fall at "0" or less on the screen, but consistently triggering the error message when I vector in that position. (at least with this profile)

Manually targeted/nudged Zzero to fool it into cutting proper depth,
so yay, it is working now, but wondering what parameters are throwing the "subscript out of range".
Is it simply too exessive a profile depth? some correlation between bit selection/depth of cut? Would love to know for future reference so I can avoid burning an hour or two of guess work again.
