Error in if (file.exists(over_cache) && file.exists(bbox_cache))

Hi there, I updated to version 0.1.3 and both on my Ubunto 20.04 and Windows 10 machines rayvista is not working anymore. I get the above error message just by running the sample from the plot_3d_vista example from the documentation. Many thanks in advance for having a look at it.

Here's the output of my sessioninfo:

Rats, I may have rushed something out too quick. I was trying to improve the handling of cached data. Can you try specifying a folder with the cache_dir argument, please? It should create the folder for you now...

Thanks for this!

[h-a-graham]

So I think I've patched this now. Stupid me put the return inside the check for thunderforest data sources and so unless you requeste thunderforest it was returning NULL: https://github.com/h-a-graham/rayvista/commit/31eabbb3d6e4297dff4f742fedafc9c2d159799d

Can you restart you R session, reinstall and let me know if things are working again please? Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks again for letting me know!

Perfect, this solved the issue, it's working now again. Many thanks!
