STS2: Simple Team Sports Simulator
STS2 is a multi-agent reinforcement learning environment for generic team sports games. While preserving a gym-like interface, this environment adopts a compact state abstraction which is a lower-dimensional engineered representation of game state rather than frame buffer.
Future updates to this document will incoude additional descriptions of how the game works and will cover its probabilistic model, physics, goal, rules, POMDP, etc.
Installation
Python
Requirements: Python 3.6+
pip install -r requirements.txtConda (recommended)
conda create --name sts2 python=3.6
conda activate sts2
pip install -r requirements.txt Quick Start
The following code will launch a 3 vs 3 game with all players as NPC (heuristic AI, driven by probabilistic model).
from sts2.environment import STS2Environment
env = STS2Environment(num_home_players=3, # Number of home-team players
num_away_players=3, # Number of away-team players
num_home_agents=0, # Number of home-team agent players
num_away_agents=0, # Number of away-team agent players
with_pygame=True, # Turn on pygame feature, so that you can `render()`
timeout_ticks=1e3) # Max-length of one round of game
obs, info = env.reset()
while True:
obs, r, done, info = env.step(None)
env.render()Game State

}Action Space
Action space will each player will have two parts: discrete action and continuous input (image you are playing the game with a xbox controller).
Discrete action: SHOOT, PASS_1, PASS_2, PASS_3, PASS_4, PASS_5, BLOCK, NONE
Continuous input defines accelerations in x-z plane. The accelerationin the game is normalized to 1 so that
A sample action input:
{
"h_ai_1": {
"action": "NONE",
"input": [1, -1]
},
"a_ai_1": {
"action": "NONE",
"input": [-1, 1]
},
