Snowball Fight ☃️, a multi-agent environment for ML-Agents made by Hugging Face
A multi-agent environment using Unity ML-Agents Toolkit where two agents compete in a 1vs1 snowball fight game.
👉 You can play it online at this link.
⚠️ You need to have some skills in ML-Agents if you want to use it if it's not the case check the documentation
The Environment
- Two agents compete in a 1 vs 1 snowball fight game.
- The goal is to hit the opponent team while avoiding the opponent's snowballs ❄️.
Observation Space
Ray-casts:
- 10 ray-casts forward distributed over 100 degrees: detecting opponent.
- 10 ray-casts forward distributed over 100 degrees: detecting walls, shelter and frontier.
- 10 ray-casts forward distributed over 100 degrees: detecting snowballs.
- 3 ray-casts backward distributed over 45 degrees: detecting wall and shelter.
Vector Observations:
- Bool canShoot (you can only shoot a snowball every 2 seconds).
- Float currentHealth: normalized [0, 1]
- Vector3 vertical speed
- Vector3 horizontal speed
- Vector3 "home" position
Action Space (Discrete)
- Vector Action space:
- Four branched actions corresponding to forward, backward, sideways movement, rotation, and snowball shoot.
Agent Reward Function (dependant):
- If the team is injured:
- 0.1 to the shooter.
- If the team is dead:
- (1 - accumulated time penalty): when a snowball hits the opponent, the accumulated time penalty decreases by (1 / MaxStep) every fixed update and is reset to 0 at the beginning of an episode.
- (-1) When a snowball hit our team.
Addendum
- There is no friendly fire, which means that an agent can't shoot himself, or in the future, in a 2vs2 game can't shoot a teammate.
How to use it
Set-up the environment
- Clone this project
git clone https://huggingface.co/ThomasSimonini/ML-Agents-SnowballFight-1vs1
- Open Unity Hub and create a new 3D Project
- In the cloned project folder, open
.\ML-Agents-SnowballFight-1vs1\packages
and copy manifest.json and package.lock.json - Paste these two files in
Your Unity Project\Packages
=> this will install the required packages. - Drop the SnowballFight-1vs1 unity package to your Unity Project.
Watch the trained agents
- If you want to watch the trained agents, open
Assets\1vs1\Scenes\1vs1_v2_Training.
place the\ML-Agents-SnowballFight-1vs1\saved_model\SnowballFight1vs1-4999988.onnx
into BlueAgent and PurpleAgent Model.
Train, the agent
- If you want to train it again, the scene is
Assets\1vs1\Scenes\1vs1_v2_Training.
Training info
- SnowballFight1vs1 was trained with 5100000 steps.
- The final ELO score was 1766.452.
