Check whether a scenario is running #43

Open duyminh1998 opened 9 months ago

duyminh1998 commented 9 months ago

Why

As a

user of pyCMO

I want

to be able to check when a scenario is running or paused

So that

I can make decisions to either resume or pause the scenario. In addition, the pyCMO environment would also benefit from knowing this information more explicitly.

Acceptance Criteria

Given

we currently do not check when a scenario is running or paused (we make certain assumptions about the state). The closest we get is the script to check if the "Incoming message" window exists, which implies the scenario is paused.

When

we implement a check for whether the scenario is running or paused

Then

we will improve the reliability of the pyCMO environment

Notes

duyminh1998 commented 9 months ago

This is important because currently CMOEnv::step is slow because of the repeated calls to window_exists(window_name="Incoming message") to check when the scenario has paused after we stepped the environment forwards. If we can implement a quicker check then this will improve the speed that pyCMO can control the game.
