max buffer units change

[philip]

Hi Gal

Yes, it was this week, and no, it’s not universal.

Your do more (and other) goals still have both retro-ratchet and max-buffer settings in days. But ratcheting do less goals less likely to do the ‘right’ thing when, and the fix turned out to be to change the setting to be in buffer units.

This means, for instance, that I can specify on my drink-less goal that I don’t want more than, say, 5 drinks of safety buffer, without worrying about the relation to a changing slope.

I couldn’t find the announcement in a quick search, but there’s at least one very happy user:

Thanks for fixing the retro-ratchet on the do-less goals! It now works perfectly, allows us to use “max units” as the buffer, and makes clear that this is what’s being used in the dialogues. Loving this fix!
