Installation

Install docker, nvidia-docker, and nvidia-container-runtime. You can refer to this document for installation instructions.

Execute the following commands in your Linux terminal to build the docker image:

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/j3soon/dfac.git
cd dfac
# Download StarCraft 2.4.10
wget http://blzdistsc2-a.akamaihd.net/Linux/SC2.4.10.zip
# Extract the files to StarCraftII directory
unzip -P iagreetotheeula SC2.4.10.zip
mv SC2.4.10.zip ..
# Build docker image
docker build . --build-arg DOCKER_BASE=nvcr.io/nvidia/tensorflow:19.12-tf1-py3 -t j3soon/dfac:1.0

Launch a docker container:

docker run --gpus all \
    --shm-size=1g --ulimit memlock=-1 --ulimit stack=67108864 \
    --rm \
    -it \
    -v "$(pwd)"/pymarl:/root/pymarl \
    -v "$(pwd)"/results:/results \
    -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY \
    --device /dev/snd \
    j3soon/dfac:1.0 /bin/bash

Run the following command in the docker container for quick testing:

cd /root/pymarl
python3 src/main.py --config=ddn --env-config=sc2 with env_args.map_name=3m t_max=50000

After finish training, exit the container by exit, the container will be automatically deleted thanks to the --rm flag.

The results are stored in ./results.

We chose to release the code based on docker for better reproducibility and the ease of use. For installing directly or running the code in virtualenv or conda, you may want to refer to the Dockerfile. If you still have trouble setting up the environment, open an issue and describe your encountered issue.

If you want to modify the algorithm, you can modify the files in ./pymarl directly, without rebuilding the docker image or restarting the docker container.

Compare Baseline code with DFAC code

The code of DFAC is organized with minimum changes based on oxwhirl/pymarl for readibility. You may want to compare the baselines with their DFAC variants with the following commands:

# Configs
diff pymarl/src/config/algs/iql.yaml pymarl/src/config/algs/diql.yaml
diff pymarl/src/config/algs/vdn.yaml pymarl/src/config/algs/ddn.yaml
diff pymarl/src/config/algs/qmix.yaml pymarl/src/config/algs/dmix.yaml
# Agent
diff pymarl/src/learners/q_learner.py pymarl/src/learners/iqn_learner.py
diff pymarl/src/modules/agents/rnn_agent.py pymarl/src/modules/agents/iqn_rnn_agent.py
# Mixer
