Update an sdmTMB model

Description

This method updates an sdmTMB model with new arguments while automatically handling the mesh object to avoid environment issues when loading models from saved files.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'sdmTMB'
update(object, formula., ..., evaluate = TRUE)

Arguments

object	An sdmTMB model object.
formula.	Optional updated formula.
...	Other arguments to update in the model call.
evaluate	If TRUE (default), the updated call is evaluated; if FALSE, the call is returned unevaluated.

Value

An updated sdmTMB model object (if evaluate = TRUE) or an unevaluated call (if evaluate = FALSE).

Examples

mesh <- make_mesh(pcod_2011, c("X", "Y"), cutoff = 20)
fit <- sdmTMB(density ~ 1, data = pcod_2011, mesh = mesh,
  family = tweedie(link = "log"))
fit2 <- update(fit, family = delta_gamma())
