Auto Coolant after tool change.

Ok guys. Probably another dumb question but since I can't find the answer anywhere I'll have to ask here.
ATC system.
What does the Flood designation actually do in the tool library. ? I assumed it caused a M8 to continue after tool change and spindle start but it appears I'm wrong. Been having to add a M8 after each tool change with all my programs I ported over from a Haas mill that does it without a M8 after each tool swap. Don't see anything else parm wise I can effect that. Am I thinking about this wrong. Running standard umbrella atc plc . Will post report if needed.
