| consideration and it is used by various (but not all) | ||||

| situation could occur at the end of the planned bottom time at maximum depth. This OoG event forces | ||||
| the buddy team the share the gas of one diver and to stay at maximum depth for an additional | ||||
| time of n minutes (preferences option "problem solving time"). | ||||
| At the same moment the combined SAC of both divers is increased by a estimated factor (preferences option | ||||
