gobblet-rl

Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning Environment for the Gobblet board game board game using PettingZoo.

Installation

Using pip (recommended)

pip install gobblet-rl

Local

git clone hhttps://github.com/elliottower/gobblet-rl.git
cd gobblet-rl
pip install -e .

Usage

Setting up a basic environment

In a Python shell, run the following:

import pettingzoo
from gobblet gobblet_v0

-rl
env = gobblet_v0.env()

Train a basic agent with Tianshou

In the terminal, run the following:

python gobblet/example_tianshou.py

This will train a DQN model from Tianshou for 50 epochs, and then render the trained agent playing against a random agent in an example match.

Playing a game with a random agent

In the terminal, run the following:

python gobblet/example_random.py --render_mode="human" --agent_type="random"

Command-line arguments

--render_mode="human" will render a 3x3 board only showing the topmost pieces (pieces which are covered by others, or 'gobbled', are hidden):

AGENT: player_1, ACTION: 50, POSITION: 5, PIECE: 6
       |       |       
  -    |   -   |   -   
_______|_______|_______
       |       |       
  -    |   -   |   -   
_______|_______|_______
       |       |       
  +5   |   -6  |   -   
       |       |       

--render_mode="human_full" will render three different 3x3 boards representing the small, medium and large pieces. This gives full information about pieces which are covered or 'gobbled' by other pieces. :

AGENT: player_0, ACTION: 42, POSITION: 6, PIECE: 5
         SMALL                     MED                     LARGE
