indeed the problem is that the information is kept (at least in part) in
several data structures (model (i.e. UI), struct dive, dive plan and in the
deco part as well in a list of depth at which something happens). We should
come up at least with a good decision which is the primary place that gets
copied to the others. I have to admit I haven’t understood this model thing
well enough to have an informed opinion if that is a good primary place as you
seem to suggest.
I am happy to look into that but it might take some time. So, if somebody else
wants to look into that, great. If not, it’s one of the things on my todo list
for the planner.
