I am new to Therion and as far as I know the only one in Greece
currently trying to use it. This is my first attempt to use it for
real data from a larger cave. I have many friends here in the Greek
topo community waiting for me to learn how to use Therion well enough
to pass on the knowledge. I have many questions which I will be
asking over the course of time.

This is because there are no survey stations with known Z coordinate in these
parts of your scraps - therefore therion is not able to determine
"altitude" of
these parts and they are therefore in some average scrap altitude (obviously
wrong in this case). If you will add station points with
corresponding names to
your scraps, they should be placed in correct altitude.
OK - the passage in question was done by diving, and was never yet
surveyed. I will have to make up some survey points and include them
for the loch image over the next few days. If this fixes the problem
I will re-post.

Hmmm, this is a known bug, that happens if single scrap goes over multiple
altitude levels. Splitting cave into multiple scraps within single altitude
level usually helps in this case, but it is still a bug that needs
to be fixed.
When you write altitude levels, how do you mean - the whole cave only
has 160m in it, how many scraps should that be split into? There is
one case of spiking to the south where a passage at -40m is trying to
reach the surface, the cases at the far east, where some of the
lowest chambers are growing upwards, a case of a downward spike in
the northern route a little after the level section in cyan, and a
few others here and there.

This would help me to find out, where the problem is. Last time I
was trying to
fix this on Wookey's 80km mulu scrap and obviously - this was not possible. So
some small cave where it appears is welcome.
.th and .th2 files attached. I am not sure about how simple their
syntax is - it is my first time with multiple scraps, and I know my
first .th2 has very badly drawn bezier curves, but I am learning still :)
Many thanks for your time.
