How to get Z offset to stay for full layer

Im working with a few projects where I need to move the Z for each layer. When I set this as a Z offset, the head moves to the start of the object, drops the table, finishes the vector move, and raises the table again.

This makes a quick 25 second promo item cut into 2 minutes each. I have another project that would require similar moves, but would need to move to the layer height at the start of the layer in order to cut out items we start on the vacuum table.

Lightburn 1.3.01, Thunder Laser Nova 35 (100w with rudia controller)

Ive searched the forum and not found answers to this issue, other than options that seem to have been removed or do not show up in my version (material setting, relative move Z, Optimize Z).

Don´t know for now if 1.3.01 has the same options under device settings
