Linear pattern not completely applied?

Hi, can anyone tell me why this linear pattern is not being applied in all cases?

    delete your mirror features that create the 5 hole pattern. just pattern the two holes and add 1 instance to each direction of your linear pattern.

    Also, make fillet before the pattern and include in pattern, then shell.

    looks like the regen time is faster if the fillet stays after the pattern.

    josh, if regen time is a concern at all, I'd also reccomend doing the pattern in 2 steps vs both directions at one time

    Thanks, it worked — but do you know why the mirror method wasn't working? Is it a bug?

    Not sure tbh. I suspect it has something do with the computer not knowing which hole overrides the other. Your basically telling OS to delete some of the holes multiple times with the way you did the mirror.
