# EMbC 2.0.0

## Major improvements

  - Some core functionalities have been implemented using Rcpp. This results in a significant increase in computational speed when using large datasets.

  - With the aim of enhancing the *EMbC* R-package as a real general purpose algorithm, the dependency with respect to the *move* R-package has been dropped. Thus, potential users coming from domains other than ecology are not forced to install packages that are not desired. However, *Move* objects from the *move* R-package can still be used directly as input data.

## Bug fixes

  - the *bg* parameter of the *sctr* function is working properly now.


# EMbC 1.9.4

## Bug fixes

  - When working with *move* objects, version 1.9.3 was picking GMT timestamps instead of using study local timestamps. This has been changed in version 1.9.4. Of note: the example in the vignette illustrating the use of *move* objects was affected by this error.

## Minor improvements

  - The command *view* was depicting the trajectory without taking into account the proportionality of the axes. This has been corrected in version 1.9.4.

  - In the multivarite case, commands *view()* and *sctr()* depict plots with a light-grey background colour to enhance the visibility of the data points. We added a *bg* parameter to allow changing this default behaviour.
