From a4188c580f6a3bd47b533aa1cdf9edbde422ac6f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Robert C. Helling" Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2015 17:40:47 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Pref. to ascent to next stop only when stop is below ceiling Usually, we try to ascent to the next stop and check if we break the ceiling while doing that. This patch adds a preference value to rather check if the ceiling is above the next stop before attempting to ascent. The difference if off-gasing during the ascent is taken into account. Logically, it does not sound like it could be relevant to ignore that off-gasing but it leads to more conservative schedules and it seems the original Fortran VPM-B implementation does just this. So one could argue it is part of that model (if it makes sense or not), so we should at least give users the possibility to turn this on. Maybe we should even make this the default for VPM-B. This patch just addes the code to have the value in the preferences and the planner to act accordingly. There is no UI for it, yet. To test, you have to set it in the code. There could be a later patch with a UI if people like to have it. Signed-off-by: Robert C.
