Function to predict an evolutionary time series given some initial values

[ScottClaessens]

Erik mentioned this in an email:

Maybe the last feature I’d like to add before submission is to predict a time series given some initial values (which could for example be the model inferred ancestral states). I feel like this can really make the model’s behavior more transparent before introducing the equilibrium analyses. And it will generalize visualizing coevolution beyond the 2x2 case by using a common y-axis.

Here's an example of what this might look like:

I mentioned this in my email reply, but I think a good default for this plot would be to use the model-implied ancestral states as the starting values. Users could manually set their own starting values.

I have drafted an initial version of a function to predict coevolutionary time series given some fit model and initial states on the associated branch. To be added is an associated plot function.

Thanks! Are you happy to also work on the plotting function?

Yep, just pushed the function to the branch.
