Changes in version 0.1.8 (2025-09-15) - Add Matrix to Imports so lazy-loaded mesh data (survey_mesh, survey_lite_mesh) pass checks. No user-visible changes; API and results unchanged. Changes in version 0.1.7 (2025-08-22) - Minor improvements to documentation - Dropped dependence on magrittr pipe (%>%); now using native R pipe (|>) Changes in version 0.1.6 (2023-09-19) - Switch to dependence on the sf and stars package rather than the sp and raster package given the evolution of R spatial - Switch to new INLAspacetime functions for simulating from a barrier mesh Changes in version 0.1.5 (2022-04-06) - Add informative error if NaN values are generated using sim_distribution - Fix showscale problem in sim_distribution; was supplying a logical vector when length should have been 1 - Allow for more flexible simulation of sets by adding an argument to sim_sets called subset_cells and a custom_sets argument to sim_survey - Add number of fish available to the survey (I = N * q) to the sp_N object when running sim_survey Changes in version 0.1.4 (2022-01-26) - Add a "bezier" method to make_grid - Allow a vector of age-specific parameters to be supplied to sim_parabola plus add some options for defining a more asymmetric parabola - Speed up sim_sets and ensure sample call passes new error traps - Fix bug in plotting scripts; plotly returns an error if supplied xtabs class data - Improve vis_fit function Changes in version 0.1.3 (2021-01-13) - Simplify make_grid function to improve the splits of the divisions and strata - CRAN request: change doi in DESCRIPTION to preferred format Changes in version 0.1.2 (2020-09-09) - Initial release to CRAN Changes in version 0.1.1 - Initial release documented in Regular et al.
