Downloading a file it did stop with not enough par2 vols to repair which is excellent this I like. Although I decided to continue to the end of the download, knowing not enough par2 vols to repair.

After download I again selected the same nzb to download again where all files again still green. Downloading each one didn't add any extra parts to the ones missing in the File.Name.part###.rar list. I searched on another sever found same file again didn't add any missing parts. So I looked at the settings and disabled 'Skip if file already downloaded' now it is taking the same amount of time that originally took to download the first time. It is finding missing parts 5/7 6/7 etc but not filling in quickly as would be done with setting 'When incomplete, position parts on correct position in file (yenc only)' which I disabled as it wasn't filling in the missing parts.

Question can the same be done for nzb as yenc with 'When incomplete, position parts on correct position in file (yenc only)'

When incomplete, position parts on correct position in file (nzb only) ?

Where last download completed file is named .part006.1.rar the reason for taking time is actually downloading again. As mentioned same nzb from another server as download completes more parts. First nzb show on download list expanded all green. The second search engine  nzb 1 red the rest are all green the par2.vols are complete but not enough to repair.

Right now with juggling the download queue manually I can get it to repair sooner with all par2.vols by moving the most incomplete parts to the top x2 that are are 0/7 a few 2/7 3/7 etc which the newer nzb is downloading complete. Though better if all this was manual so not having to mess around doing this. There was no indication with the first nzb except when it stopped that not enough par2 to fix this one. I did continue this one as a test to see if was fixable and what would be needed. Which turned into feedback and a request :)
