Your root problem is insufficient bed adhesion rather than the print path. Possible solutions are to increase bed temperature for 1st layer, increase 1st layer height but decrease Z zero height slightly to "squish" the plastic against the bed, or use a better bed material. Coating the bed with an ABS/acetone solution or solvent cement (as used to join plastic pipes) works well for me.

Hey, it worked pretty well, the first layer was laid down nicely. Also I have increased extruder temp for the first layer a bit.Quote

It results in a "lip" around the edges of the base of the print, but in most cases this is easily filed off afterwards.
