Can't add new method to modify model settings #15

Hello,

I've been trying to change the betamultiplier in the maxent settings with the function add() but without success. Here is my workflow:

maxent_dif <- sdm::getmethod('maxent','sdm')
maxent_dif@fitSettings$beta <- 5
sdm::add(x=maxent_dif, w='sdm')

Error in (function (classes, fdef, mtable)  : 
  unable to find an inherited method for function ‘add’ for signature ‘"sdmCorrelativeMethod", "character"’

Do you have any solution to this? Best wishes,

Matteo

Hi,

Currently, the add function works only with a list. I will update it but meanwhile, you may use the following code:

maxent_dif <- sdm::getmethod('maxent','sdm')

maxent_dif@fitSettings$beta <- 5 maxent_dif@name <- "maxent_dif" maxent_dif@aliases <- "maxent2"

sdm:::.sdmMethods$addMethod(maxent_dif) # add the method

sdm::getmethodNames(alt=F) # check if it is added to the list of methods

Hope this helps,

Babak
