Can I change the speed of render?

[keenranger]

I want to know my agent works well by watching game, but game speed is so fast that I dont know whats happening.

I know that I can change the in-game speed by '+' and '-' key, but even if I slow down in-game speed, game is still too fast to watch.

Is there any command or something to slow down game speed??

You can control the rate at which the agents train using the sc2.yaml config file: pymarl/src/config/envs/sc2.yaml

adjust the step multiplier to 1x. step_mul: 8

watch agents train.

I prefer to set to evaluate mode in the default.yaml and watch through there after I have completed training but this is the quicker way to view agent actions.

@GJHall step_mul actually corresponds to the number of game steps per agent step. Changing it should have a big impact on the policy.

@keenranger what you can do is you can import time and put a time.sleep(ms) in the step() function of the StarCraft2Env. This is probably the fastest way watching the agents' performance. Alternatively, you can safe a replay and then rewatch it.

Hope this helps.
