* added broadcast to the player and heuristic brain.
Allows the python API to record actions taken along with the states and rewards
* removed the broadcast checkbox
Added a Handshake method for the communicator
The academy will try to handshake regardless of the brains present
Player and Heuristic brains will send their information through the communicator but will not receive commands
* bug fix : The environment only requests actions from external brains when unique
* added warning in case no brins are set to external
* fix on the instanciation of coreBrains,
fix on the conversion of actions to arrays in the BrainInfo received from step
* default discrete action is now 0
bug fix for discrete broadcast action (the action size should be one in Agents.cs)
modified Tennis so that the default action is no action
modified the TemplateDecsion.cs to ensure non null values are sent from Decide() and MakeMemory()
* minor fixes
* need to convert the s...
* More efficiently allocate memory when sending states
* Code clean-up
* Additional changes
* More GC reduction
* Remove state list initialization from example environments
* Use built-in json tool to serialize state message
* Remove commented code
* Use more efficient CompareTag
* Comments before code
* Use type inference where appropriate
* On Demand Decision : Use RequestDecision and RequestAction
* New Agent Inspector : Use it to set On Demand Decision
* New BrainParameters interface
* LSTM memory size is now set in python
* New C# API
* Semantic Changes
* Replaced RunMDP
* New Bouncer Environment to test On Demand Dscision
* [AddVectorObs] Converted the Examples to use the new AddVectorObs
* [AddVectorObs] Converted the Reacher to use the new AddVectorObs
* [Improvement] One liner for adding the rotation
This PR makes the following changes:
* Moves clipping of continuous control model into model itself. Output is now always [-1, 1].
* Internal model values are now clipped between [-3, 3] before being rescaled to [-1, 1] for output. * This improves training performance by providing a wider range of values within which the pdf of the gaussian can fall. Output of [-1, 1] is used to be more environment-creator friendly.
* Fixes issue where epsilon was erroneously being used to reconstruct old probabilities during PPO update, leading to reduced learning performance.
* Introduce ScaleAction() function within python to easily rescale values from [-1, 1] to arbitrary range.
* Re-train all CC models using improved algorithm. All performance levels are equal or improved. In the case of Crawler, improvement is drastic.
* Update documentation appropriately.
* Made miscellaneous minor code style and optimization improvements within environments.
* [WIP] Side Channel initial layout
* Working prototype for raw bytes
* fixing format mistake
* Added some errors and some unit tests in C#
* Added the side channel for the Engine Configuration. (#2958)
* Added the side channel for the Engine Configuration.
Note that this change does not require modifying a lot of files :
- Adding a sender in Python
- Adding a receiver in C#
- subscribe the receiver to the communicator (here is a one liner in the Academy)
- Add the side channel to the Python UnityEnvironment (not represented here)
Adding the side channel to the environment would look like such :
```python
from mlagents.envs.environment import UnityEnvironment
from mlagents.envs.side_channel.raw_bytes_channel import RawBytesChannel
from mlagents.envs.side_channel.engine_configuration_channel import EngineConfigurationChannel
channel0 = RawBytesChannel()
channel1 = EngineConfigurationChanne...

* Deprecating Academy.Instance.FloatProperties
* Made the registered side channels a static property and created the sideChannelUtils class to handle side channel stuff
* Clearing the sending message queue in the Academy when the communicaor is not on
* addressing comments
* Make EnvironmentParameters a first-class citizen in the API
Missing: Python conterparts and testing.
* Minor comment fix to Engine Parameters
* A second minor fix.
* Make EngineConfigChannel Internal and add a singleton/sealed accessor
* Make StatsSideChannel Internal and add a singleton/sealed accessor
* Changes to SideChannelUtils
- Disallow two sidechannels of the same type to be added
- Remove GetSideChannels that return a list as that is now unnecessary
- Make most methods except (register/unregister) internal to limit users impacting the “system-level” side channels
- Add an improved comment to SideChannel.cs
* Added Dispose methods to system-level sidechannel wrappers
- Specifically to StatsRecorder, EnvironmentParameters and EngineParameters.
- Updated Academy.Dispose to take advantage of these.
- Updated Editor tests to cover all three “system-level” side channels.
Kudos to Unit Tests (TestAcade...
