Thanks for sharing your thoughts on that. I fully agree that it's a fair split that R and Python have their own places in `.R` and `.py` files, respectively. With...

In my case, the solution provided by @nickitalyano [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50745431/trying-to-use-r-with-mysql-the-used-command-is-not-allowed-with-this-mysql-vers?rq=1) solved the issue.

When downloading higher-level MODIS products using [`runGdal`](https://github.com/MatMatt/MODIS/blob/master/R/runGdal.R) (or [`getHdf`](https://github.com/MatMatt/MODIS/blob/master/R/getHdf.R)) from **MODIS**, users are currently required to + either specify horizontal and vertical tile indices in accordance with the [MODIS Sinusoidal...

It works every now and then, but then again, it fails at least as often...

Oh, I'm really sorry to hear that. Do you know if there is any chance to add local tiles using XYZ Tiles from QGIS core? This has been quite straightforward...
