abstract: Flexible, mechanistic, and spatially explicit simulator of metacommunities.
  It extends our previous package - 'rangr' (see <https://github.com/ropensci/rangr>),
  which implemented a mechanistic virtual species simulator integrating population
  dynamics and dispersal. The 'mrangr' package adds the ability to simulate multiple
  species interacting through an asymmetric matrix of pairwise relationships, allowing
  users to model all types of biotic interactions — competitive, facilitative, or
  neutral — within spatially explicit virtual environments. This work was supported
  by the National Science Centre, Poland, grant no. 2018/29/B/NZ8/00066 and the Poznań
  Supercomputing and Networking Centre (grant no. pl0090-01).
