Actions#

Koolaid has the action space Discrete(9) with the table below lists the meaning of each action’s meanings. As Koolaid uses a reduced set of actions for v0, v4 and v5 versions of the environment. To enable all 18 possible actions that can be performed on an Atari 2600, specify full_action_space=True during initialization or by passing full_action_space=True to gymnasium.make.

Observations#

Atari environment have two possible observation types, the observation space is listed below. See variants section for the type of observation used by each environment id.

  • obs_type="rgb" -> observation_space=Box(0, 255, (210, 160, 3), np.uint8)

  • obs_type="ram" -> observation_space=Box(0, 255, (128,), np.uint8)

Additionally, obs_type="grayscale" cause the environment return a grayscale version of the rgb array for observations with the observation space being Box(0, 255, (210, 160), np.uint8)

Variants#

Koolaid has the following variants of the environment id which have the following differences in observation, the number of frame-skips and the repeat action probability.

  • v4: Stickiness of actions was removed

  • v0: Initial versions release
