Tab generation for conveyor on complex compound vectors

Hi,

I have some extremely complex compound vectors that I need to cut out on a large scale (35cm by 70cm, this is a prototype, the final one will be 50cm x 2m).

I tried adding tabs by distance but it doesn't seem to generate anything at all.

The compound vector can be looked at as a huge rectangle with around a 100 of cutout pieces in it.

My question here is if i do it by number how would xcs place my tabs? I can select a max of 50 tabs by number but over the whole board it will never be enough (that's why I hoped spacing would be an option).
Is this number for the whole compound vector or rather for each individual closed vector inside the compound one?

Overall I'm very confused on how tabs are generated in compounded vectors, anyone got a good guide to read for me?

Added an image to the ticket, it's not this one I try to burn but it resembles quite well the issue. 
I would like to achieve the pieces not falling through (conveyor getting stuck issue) so let's say 2 tabs on each inner vector in the compounded one would be ideal.
