v 1.0.0 (27 Sep 2024)

Enhancements

A vignette has been added using epizootic to model house finch conjunctivitis.
Examples have been added to two of the functions.
aspatial_siri now runs much faster.
check_aspatial_siri_inputs now checks inputs much more thoroughly.
There are now unit tests to ensure that no dispersers are created or destroyed.
New tests have been added for DiseaseModel.

Broken links to other packages have been fixed.
siri_model functions can now handle one active population.
disease_simulator no longer breaks when demographic rates are given as lists and masks are given as vectors.
Non-breeding season length is now calculated correctly.
disease_dispersal can now handle the case when dispersal does not change over time.
disease_dispersal was not working properly when there was density dependent dispersal and matrix-formatted dispersal data. This is now fixed.

Important bug fix: the number of occupied indices now updates more frequently within the disease_simulator function, which allows species range to expand properly.
Documentation update: all references to features in development that are not yet implemented have been removed.

The aspatial_siri function now kills off populations at or below the abundance threshold (previously it killed off populations below the abundance threshold only)
The disease_dispersal function can now handle the case when one or more segments of the population does not disperse.
