Why no simulation? Will it cut anyway?

Yea, having same value for initial and final basically tells CC there is no Z movement. Unless carving inside a pocket, I always have my initial at 0. Becareful setting a large “initial” as your bit will plunge to that depth to start out, and could result in broken bits, dislodged or ruined material, machine damage or worse. Not knowing what learing you’ve done thus far, and not to offend, but I would recommend some of the great videos for using CC that are in both this community and elsewhere on a popular video service. They may utilize older versions, but the basics are the same. Another option is to click on Help/Help from inside CC and view the Carbide3D “Getting Started” series.
