cartographr 0.2.4 (2025-09-18)

• Functions using the Overpass API now fail gracefully with an informative message; network-dependent tests are skipped on CRAN or when the API is unavailable.
• Improved handling of empty or invalid inputs, safer subsetting of OSM features, and consistent use of cli::cli_abort().
• Buffers and crop boundaries now use a local metric CRS (UTM/UPS) for more accurate results; combined layers keep only polygon geometries.
• plot_map() now returns a ggplot2 object; hatch pattern generation and frame borders are more reliable.
• Bug fixes: Various small fixes in crop(), get_osmdata(), and palette handling.
