Re: Proposition of a feature in simulator

Well, no deco dives are only a few % of all dives for the majority of the users of OSTC. the feature you are talking about is included in most recreational diving computers (as suunto) and is useless for most technical divers, imho. In fact, one CRITICAL feature missing in the computer planner and t...

Re: NDL staying at 0 for a while after deco completion

Im afraid I explained the problem incorrectly. The problem is not "since there was almost no difference in pressure, the NDL stayed at 0". The problem was: "even there was difference in pressure, and my NDL was rising in my other computer, the OSTC showed me an incorrect "0 NDL&q...

Yeah, but... Safety stop is 3-6m or 3-5m? And is 3min or 5 min?... Is essential to know that ;)

Re: CNS% ?

I'll try again when I arrive home, but last time I did this planification, OTSC 2N gave me 22%

OSTC Planner (Pc-Mac software) gives you correct CNS%.

I'll report tomorrow.

Re: Safety Stop/Sicherheits Stop

And, if you transgress the safety stop, the return to safe zone, what happens? (i.e. you ascend to -2m, and the return to -3m). Countdown continues, or it disappears?

Re: Safety Stop/Sicherheits Stop

I`ll rather prefer the same way it goes on suunto and other devices: Countdown stop (+/- disappears ?¿?) until you go back between 3-6m, then resumes. I think it's not useful to show the violated time on screen when you surface. No other computer does, as far as I know.

Re: Safety Stop/Sicherheits Stop

In most computers (suunto, mares, uwatec, oceanic...) going below 6m or swallower than 3m does not reset countdown, just "freezes". If you go again to the 6-3m zone, countdown continues from where it was left.

Countdown only reset if you go deeper than 10-12m.
