missing layers in 5.0.2, but not in 4.1.2

Hello,
I was having so many prints look like it was missing layers. I thought maybe time to change the nozzle, nope.
The I took a closer look at the sliced model in 5.0.2 and notice that the sliced model was missing layers.
I put the same model in 4.1.2 and they were no missing layers..
the 1st pic is 4.1.2 (green) which is fine and the 2nd pic is 5.0.2 (blue) missing layers.
I added red markers to show thw problem area.


Is this a bug or am I missing something?

I always recommend starting with the suggestions in this article:

In short - check the model for errors and utilize some of the different repair options already in S3D

Changing Slicing Behavior from Positive Fills to Alternating Fill seemed to fix the problem.
Thanks.
