Known issues: https://github.com/PredictiveEcology/SpaDES.tools/issues

version 0.3.6

Dependency changes

• none

Bugfixes

• update a test to deal with forthcoming raster changes.

Enhancements

• none

version 0.3.5

We have identified a non-trivial bug in spread when using allowOverlap = TRUE. Until we can patch this bug, using this argument value will generate an error. We are currently working on a fix, which may take some time.

Dependency changes

• removed orphaned package bit; its reverse dependencies, ff and ffbase, moved to Suggests

Bugfixes

• none

Enhancements

• New values for returnIndices arg in spread, allowing for numeric. New option, 2 allows for the fastest return possible, only pixelIndices

version 0.3.4

Dependency changes

• none

Bugfixes

• fix issues with failing tests on CRAN

Enhancements

• none

version 0.3.3

Dependency changes

• Requires R >= 3.5
• Added animation since it is used in the spread3 example.
• Added backports for R-oldrel support
• Removed profvis and microbenchmark from Suggests: all benchmarking is removed from automated tests

Bugfixes

• minor bug fixes

Enhancements

• spread2 speed enhancements

version 0.3.2

Dependency changes

• Added animation, fasterize, and sf to suggests (used in examples)

Bugfixes

• minor bug fixes

Enhancements

• spread2 now takes a numeric for allowOverlap, to allow for 1 more scenario of overlapping, namely, allow between event overlapping, and within event overlapping only if the overlap occurs in the same iteration, otherwise, do not allow overlap within event.
• new function spread3 for simulating e.g., insect spread
• pointDistance is now exported

version 0.3.1

Dependency changes

• RandomFields moved to Suggests to prevent clashes with data.table multithreading

Enhancements

• randomPolygon now has area argument, instead of hectares (deprecated), and it now succeeds for more cases.
• mergeRaster now accepts a function passed by the user when mosaic is triggered (#55, @tati-micheletti)
• initiateAgents example fixed to work with newer raster package versions (@rhijmans)

version 0.3.0

New features

• splitRaster defaults to in-memory rasters when no file path specified (#47, @ianmseddy).

Removed features

• Previously deprecated functions removed to fix CRAN check WARNINGs. These are now located in the reproducible package.
• compiler package no longer used; is automatic in R >= 3.5

version 0.2.0

New features

• new arguments added to gaussMap (#20, @ianmseddy).
• move fastMask to reproducible package

Deprecated functions

• fastCrop(): raster::crop is faster than velox::crop under many tests.
• fastMask(): moved to the reproducible package.

Bug fixes

• minor bug fixes (spread2)
• minor test fixes.

Dependency changes

• dplyr and mgcv added to Suggests because they are used in tests.

version 0.1.1

• add more detailed information to package Description, per CRAN.
• add randomPolygon function for single random polygon.
• speed improvements with spread2 when asymmetry used.
• minor bug fixes.

version 0.1.0

• A new package, which takes all auxiliary modelling functions out of the SpaDES package:

  • see ?SpaDES.tools::SpaDES.tools for an overview of included functionality.
