Hi.
I am using a 50% deco bottle, but i can't see a way to add the information ???
The tank change at 70ft does show in the dive profile graph though.

Is there anything I am missing.

PS: just took me an hour to put in the dive numbers only 358 to do ... ha ha ha!!! :roll: Thanks ...

Well, MacDive doesn't support multi-tank dives yet. Do you think you could run the instructions here:

http://www.mac-dive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=407

...using the "vyper2" test. That way I could look at your data and use it to start working on multi tank support.


The best you could do for now is just create a new tank and add it as a piece of gear, but.. it's not going to factor into your SAC rate or anything.


If you're adding dive numbers for your HelO2 dives, go to Gear and select the HelO2, then choose your starting dive and click "Renumber" and it will do it for you.

This feature would be a major enhancement to MacDive for me. Not only for a second gas but also a third and a fourth!!!!!

All us crazy tech dives need our multigas support :D

Second that! Being able to use multiple tanks (and factor the information into the SAC calculations) would be neat.
Adding additional tanks for a dive works fine. But then it will mess up the SAC calculations and there is no way to enter the gas used per tank yet.
Needless to say, having full multi-tank support would be awesome...
