BTW: You could be one of the best candidates for testing my latest changes around cylinder handling in the planner. It would be great to hear from your side if this improves or breaks s.th. for you. Robert merged the changes already but the PR was this one:

Stefan,

I have been trying out a lot of things around dive planning today this afternoon to test your patches within my dive context. I could not find any problem. Attached one of the dives I worked with. I loved it when changing the gas of the first segment of the dive, the cylinder table changed to put the gas first used at the top. I added segments at the bottom of the dive planner points table and these were placed at the start of the profile if the runtime was set appropriately. I really messed around, deleting cylinders, changing cylinders and adding cylinders and everything remained coherent and stable. I also see that all the cylinders used in the dive planner points table are marked as non-removable from the dive. Ok, Good.

About minimum pressures, you can see that the minimum pressure is given for the final bottom gas. As planned, there are 34 bars of bottom gas required to from the start of ascent complete the dive. If I double the deco SAC (SAC factor = 2) I would need 41 bars of back gas for the ascent. If I took one minute for problem solving I would need 30(litres/min=2*deco SAC)*9(atm) = 360 litres of air = 11 bars of D12 cylinders. That is 45 bars in total. But the problem solving would have been at the bottom depth (80m) before ascent, therefore the problem solving need is possibly better defined in terms of the bottom SAC, not the deco SAC (i.e. 15 bars and not 11 bars). But, I am very slowly getting to understand the argument.

Kind regards,
willem
