R: changing x-axis tick mark labels in forestplot

I have a forestplot, and my x-axis tick mark labels are spaced a bit strangely, and I would like to change it to having each tick mark be 0.1 apart from each other. Also, does anyone know how forestplot decides how the ticks are spaced?

From the forestplot documentation (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/forestplot/vignettes/forestplot.html#ticks-and-grids), you have two options.

1. you can set manually in your forestplot() expression your ticks, e.g. xticks = c(-.1, -0.05, 0, .05)
2. you can create a sequence, e.g. xticks <- seq(from = -0.08, to = 2.50, by = 0.1) and add it to your forestplot() expression with xticks = xticks
