Requirements

• Python 3
• Python package manager (pip)

Installation

Use the package manager pip to install the requirements.

Usage

1. Head to simulation folder
2. Run python main.py

How to change the amount of sensors

Quick note: The amount of sensors can only be: 3, 4, 5, 9 or 11

1. Go to simulation folder
2. Edit the file .env and change the value of NUM_SENSORES to how many sensors you'd like
3. Save changes and close the file
4. While still in the folder, edit the file config-feedforward.txt
5. Go to line 48 and change the value of num_inputs to match the amount of sensors in step 2
6. Save changes and close the file
7. Run python main.py

How to change the map

Quick note: The map can only be 1, 2 or 3. 1 is the easiest map, meanwhile 3 is the hardest.

1. Go to simulation folder
2. Edit the file .env and the value of MAP to the difficulty of the map you'd like
3. Save changes and close the file
4. Run python main.py
