Description

This release fixes minor bugs found after the 0.4.0 release. Some examples were slightly outdated in syntax, the new "probe particle" EveryNthCell initialization functor was broken when not used with equal spacing per dimension. In some rare cases, sliding could occur twice in moving window simulations.

Please refer to our ChangeLog for a full list of features, fixes and user interface changes before getting started.

Thanks to Axel Huebl, René Widera, Richard Pausch and Andrei Berceanu for contributions to this release!
