Mid Air Skirt in 4.1.1

Greetings,
Just letting you know I found a strange bug.
I just recently updated to 4.1.1 from 4.1.0 and discovered that in the new version, I have started to print a mid-air skirt between process layers.

Before in 4.1.0 I never had to worry about unchecking "skirt" option after printing the first layer and moving onto multiple processes. Now it has become an issue.

Just letting you know that it also appears to not be every layer that is an issue, just random layers. The current thing I am doing I am using 4 separate processes on, and only one of the layers has a "skirt" that's floating in mid air.

Unchecking the skirt from the 4th and final process does make the skirt go away, but it is a surprise that it happens where it did not ever do this before.

Blue Process = Base printing .3mm height
Green Layer, surface finish, slow print .2mm height
Yellow Layers, Walls around object
Red Layers clips and snaps. (The layer I had to uncheck the skirt option)

Thanks

Re: Mid Air Skirt in 4.1.1

Maybe not related, but I came here because I noticed my prints will try to do what looks like the skirt outline (default values), and then work on the actual print. It isn't printing the skirt, just going through the motions. Then, after a bit of time working on the actual print base, it then does the skirt outline. Very odd.

I'm having tremendous issues on my Monoprice Mini Delta that I last used with no issues back in October. Lots of initial spaghetti on the print surface trying to get started with strands where they shouldn't be. I am searching to see if something happened with the latest update (the only thing that has changed between now and my October usage) or if my printer has just lost its mind.
