Does BobCad allow for chain cutting parts on a plasma table?

Sorry, but I can't help as I do not have the bobnest to test.

If what you are looking for is "same line" or "contiguous profile paths", then the answer is no. Currently the path generated for each shaope is an individual path, which results in a Retract and Plunge (or in the case of a plasma torch on and torch off), between each part. There may be a change to this later, but at this time that is how it works.
