===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] New - Now Handles Bends 180 Degrees or Greater ===
+
===[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] New - Bender Network List ===
  
Benderlink now automatically detects bends that have an angle of 180 degrees or more then performs a bisection into two smaller bend angles.   This overcomes the problem of an intersection point at an unsolvable intersection by creating two intersection points with two bends where there was one.
+
Benderlink now stores each benders NAME, PATH, and TIMEOUT permanently. This makes changing benders much easier.

Since Benderlink can now handle bend angles of 180 degree bends or greater, it is now also able to recombine adjacent bends from the centerline into single bends when exporting to bender files.
