Documentation for SLiM function spatialMapColor, which is a method of the SLiM class Subpopulation. Note that the R function is a stub, it does not do anything in R (except bring up this documentation). It will only do anything useful when used inside a slim_block function further nested in a slim_script function call, where it will be translated into valid SLiM code as part of a full SLiM script.

spatialMapColor(name, value)

Arguments

name

An object of type string or numeric. Must be of length 1 (a singleton). See details for description.

value

An object of type string or numeric. See details for description.

Value

An object of type string.

Details

Documentation for this function can be found in the official SLiM manual: page 745.

This method has been deprecated, and may be removed in a future release of SLiM. In SLiM 4.1 and later, use the SpatialMap method mapColor() instead, and see that method's documentation. (This method differs only in taking a name parameter, which is used to look up the spatial map from those that have been added to the subpopulation.)
