Hi, I am using the DynamicalSystems.jl function `mapper = AttractorsViaRecurrences(ds, grid)` and `mapper(x0)` to find a limit cycle of my dynamical system `ds` for some initial condition `x0`.  
Indeed, an attractor is found ( `Info: AttractorsViaRecurrences found new attractor with id: 1`) but how do I access the information about its location?

The command I needed was: `mapper.bsn_nfo.attractors`
