After regenerate selected toolpath OR regenerate all toolpath.

The result of the output is every time different.

When pushed for example 2 or 3 times this button.

I've noticed that the offset paths are not always generated. This problem has been fixed for the next release.

The random order stems from the fact that the contours are made up of loose entities and not polylines. That in combination with enabling the toolpath option "Always use start point of polylines" causes the random order. To fix, either convert the contours to polylines and set the start points at the desired locations or disable the toolpath option "Always use start point of polylines".
