One function in Onecnc that is really neat is the circle clean function. Even though my Shadow controller has it's own spiral pocket milling Gcode, I find the circle clean function in Onecnc has superseded my mill's built in function, because I can be sure that Onecnc's code will give me the correct hole depth and diameter and this will also show up correctly in the simulation, whereas a special custom machine cycle like that will not.
Onecnc does do a good job of simulating both its own automatic drill cycles, as well as your own machine's drilling cycles.
