Version 2.4.0, now available on CRAN, adds significant new capability and fixes some critical bugs
• Parallel processing with multiple cores on one machine is now possible in some contexts, and sometimes saves time; the only user action required is to specify the argument "ncores" where ncores > 1 (see the help page ?Parallel).
• Radiotelemetry data may be incorporated in a spatially explicit capture–recapture analysis (see help page ?addTelemetry)
• Time-varying detector covariates are documented for the first time (see help page ?timevaryingcov)
• RMarkInput() handles individual covariates
Significant bugs fixed
o secr.fit() k, K models did not work with multi-session data
o secr.fit() individual covariate problems with multi-session data
o derived() sometimes failed with varying number of traps per session
o fxi.contour() and fxi.secr() failed with normal = FALSE
o RMarkInput() added a spurious occasion when grouped = FALSE
o simulate.secr() could fail with multi-session model when mask size varied between sessions
