Pull request overview
This PR improves GPS scheduling behavior when repeated GPS searches fail to obtain a fix, aiming to reduce power drain in hostile/indoor environments by backing off retry cadence and shortening subsequent search dwell time.
Changes:
- Track consecutive GPS search failures and reset the counter on successful lock.
- Add a failure-based backoff in
msUntilNextSearch()to avoid retrying more frequently than the position broadcast interval (with a 1-hour cap). - Reduce maximum GPS search dwell time after a prior failure.

Can this be updated so the double button click (of screenless devices) not only forces the standard position ping but ALSO forces a new lock if within the new cool down period. Basically you know youve been spelunking all day and as soon as you exit the cave, you want to manually force a new position lock. :) |
