+Local Evaluation
+----------------
+
+This document explains you how to locally evaluate your submissions before making
+an official submission to the competition.
+
+Requirements
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* **flatland-rl** : We expect that you have `flatland-rl` installed by following the instructions in  [README.md](README.md).
+
+* **redis** : Additionally you will also need to have  `redis installed <https://redis.io/topics/quickstart>`_ and **should have it running in the background.**
+
+Test Data
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+* **test env data** : You can `download and untar the test-env-data <https://www.aicrowd.com/challenges/flatland-challenge/dataset_files>`, at a location of your choice, lets say `/path/to/test-env-data/`. After untarring the folder, the folder structure should look something like:
+
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    .
+    └── test-env-data
+        ├── Test_0
+        │   ├── Level_0.pkl
+        │   └── Level_1.pkl
+        ├── Test_1
+        │   ├── Level_0.pkl
+        │   └── Level_1.pkl
+        ├..................
+        ├..................
+        ├── Test_8
+        │   ├── Level_0.pkl
+        │   └── Level_1.pkl
+        └── Test_9
+            ├── Level_0.pkl
+            └── Level_1.pkl
+
+Evaluation Service
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* **start evaluation service** : Then you can start the evaluator by running :
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    flatland-evaluator --tests /path/to/test-env-data/
+
+RemoteClient
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* **run client** : Some `sample submission code can be found in the starter-kit <https://github.com/AIcrowd/flatland-challenge-starter-kit/>`_, but before you can run your code locally using `FlatlandRemoteClient`, you will have to set the `AICROWD_TESTS_FOLDER` environment variable to the location where you previous untarred the folder with `the test-env-data`:
+
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    export AICROWD_TESTS_FOLDER="/path/to/test-env-data/"
+
+    # or on Windows :
+    #
+    # set AICROWD_TESTS_FOLDER "\path\to\test-env-data\"
+
+    # and then finally run your code
+    python run.py
+
+
+Technical Guidelines
+--------------------
+
+Clean Code
+~~~~~~~~~~
+Please adhere to the general `Clean Code <https://www.planetgeek.ch/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Clean-Code-V2.4.pdf>`_ principles,
+for instance we write short and concise functions and use appropriate naming to ensure readability.
+
+Naming Conventions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+We use the pylint naming conventions:
+
+`module_name`, `package_name`, `ClassName`, `method_name`, `ExceptionName`, `function_name`, `GLOBAL_CONSTANT_NAME`, `global_var_name`, `instance_var_name`, `function_parameter_name`, `local_var_name`.
+
+
+numpydoc
+~~~~~~~~
+
+Docstrings should be formatted using numpydoc_.
+
+
+.. _numpydoc: https://numpydoc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/format.html
+
+
+Acessing resources
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+We use `importlib-resources <https://importlib-resources.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_ to read from local files.
+    Sample usages:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        from importlib_resources import path
+
+        with path(package, resource) as file_in:
+            new_grid = np.load(file_in)
+
+    And:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        from importlib_resources import read_binary
+
+        load_data = read_binary(package, resource)
+        self.set_full_state_msg(load_data)
+
+
+
+    Renders the scene into a image (screenshot)
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        renderer.gl.save_image("filename.bmp")
+
+Type Hints
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+We use Type Hints (`PEP 484 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/>`_) for better readability and better IDE support.
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+        # This is how you declare the type of a variable type in Python 3.6
+        age: int = 1
+
+        # In Python 3.5 and earlier you can use a type comment instead
+        # (equivalent to the previous definition)
+        age = 1  # type: int
+
+        # You don't need to initialize a variable to annotate it
+        a: int  # Ok (no value at runtime until assigned)
+
+        # The latter is useful in conditional branches
+        child: bool
+        if age < 18:
+            child = True
+        else:
+            child = False
+
+Have a look at the `Type Hints Cheat Sheet <https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cheat_sheet_py3.html>`_ to get started with Type Hints.
+
+Caveat: We discourage the usage of Type Aliases for structured data since its members remain unnamed (see `Issue #284 <https://gitlab.aicrowd.com/flatland/flatland/issues/284/>`_).
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+        # Discouraged: Type Alias with unnamed members
+        Tuple[int, int]
+
+        # Better: use NamedTuple
+        from typing import NamedTuple
+
+        Position = NamedTuple('Position',
+            [
+                ('r', int),
+                ('c', int)
+            ]
+
+
+
+NamedTuple
+~~~~~~~~~~
+For structured data containers for which we do not write additional methods, we use
+`NamedTuple` instead of plain `Dict` to ensure better readability by
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+        from typing import NamedTuple
+
+        RailEnvNextAction = NamedTuple('RailEnvNextAction',
+            [
+                ('action', RailEnvActions),
+                ('next_position', RailEnvGridPos),
+                ('next_direction', Grid4TransitionsEnum)
+            ])
+
+Members of NamedTuple can then be accessed through `.<member>` instead of `['<key>']`.
+
+If we have to ensure some (class) invariant over multiple members
+(for instance, `o.A` always changes at the same time as `o.B`),
+then we should uses classes instead, see the next section.
+
+Class Attributes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+We use classes for data structures if we need to write methods that ensure (class) invariants over multiple members,
+for instance, `o.A` always changes at the same time as `o.B`.
+We use the attrs_ class decorator and a way to declaratively define the attributes on that class:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+        @attrs
+        class Replay(object):
+            position = attrib(type=Tuple[int, int])
+
+.. _attrs: https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs
+
+
+Abstract Base Classes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+We use the abc_ class decorator and a way to declaratively define the attributes on that class:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+        # abc_base.py
+
+        import abc
+
+
+        class PluginBase(metaclass=abc.ABCMeta):
+
+            @abc.abstractmethod
+            def load(self, input):
+                """Retrieve data from the input source
+                and return an object.
+                """
+
+            @abc.abstractmethod
+            def save(self, output, data):
+                """Save the data object to the output."""
+
+
+
+
+And then
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        # abc_subclass.py
+
+        import abc
+        from abc_base import PluginBase
+
+
+        class SubclassImplementation(PluginBase):
+
+            def load(self, input):
+                return input.read()
+
+            def save(self, output, data):
+                return output.write(data)
+
+
+        if __name__ == '__main__':
+            print('Subclass:', issubclass(SubclassImplementation,
+                                          PluginBase))
+            print('Instance:', isinstance(SubclassImplementation(),
+                                          PluginBase))
+
+.. _abc: https://pymotw.com/3/abc/
+
+
+
+Currying
+~~~~~~~~
+We discourage currying to encapsulate state since we often want the stateful object to have multiple methods
+(but the curried function has only its signature and abusing params to switch behaviour is not very readable).
+
+Thus, we should refactor our generators and use classes instead (see `Issue #283 <https://gitlab.aicrowd.com/flatland/flatland/issues/283>`_).
+
+    .. code-block:: python

+
+### What are the deadlines for the flatland challenge?
+- The beta round starts on the 1st of July 2019 and ends on the 30th of July 2019
+- Round 1 closed on Sunday, 13th of October 2019, 12 PM. UTC +1
+- Round 2 closes on Sunday, 5th of January 2020, 12 PM. UTC +1
+
+### How is the score of a submission computed?
+The scores of your submission are computed as follows:
+
+1. Mean number of agents done, in other words how many agents reached their target in time.
+2. Mean reward is just the mean of the cummulated reward.
+3. If multiple participants have the same number of done agents we compute a "nomralized" reward as follows:
+```
+normalized_reward =cumulative_reward / (self.env._max_episode_steps +self.env.get_num_agents()
+```
+The mean number of agents done is the primary score value, only when it is tied to we use the "normalized" reward to determine the position on the leaderboard.
+
+### How do I submit to the Flatland Challenge?
+Follow the instructions in the [starter kit](https://github.com/AIcrowd/flatland-challenge-starter-kit) to get your first submission.
+
+### Can I use env variables with my controller?
+Yes you can. You can access all environment variables as you please. We recommend you use a custom observation builder to do so as explained [here](http://flatland-rl-docs.s3-website.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/03_tutorials.html#custom-observations-and-custom-predictors-tutorial).
+
+### What are the time limits for my submission?
+If there is no action on the server for 10 minutes the submission will be cancelled and a time-out error wil be produced.
+
+If the submissions in total takes longer than 8 hours a time-out will occur.
+
+### What are the parameters for the environments for the submission scoring?
+The environments vary in size and number of agents as well as malfunction parameters. The upper limit of these variables for submissions are:
+- `(x_dim, y_dim) <= (150, 150)`
+- `n_agents <= 250` (this might be updated)
+- `malfunction rates` this is currently being refactored
+
+## Questions about the Flatland Repository:
+This section provides you with information about the most common questions around the Flatland repository. If your question is still not answered either reach out to the contacts listed on the repository directly or open an issue by following these [guidlines](http://flatland-rl-docs.s3-website.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/06_contributing.html).
+### How can I get started with Flatland?
+Install Flatland by running `pip install -U flatland-rl` or directly from source by cloning the flatland repository and running `python setup.py --install` in the repository directory.
+
+These [Tutorials](http://flatland-rl-docs.s3-website.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/03_tutorials.html) help you get a basic understanding of the flatland environment.
+### How do I train agents on Flatland?
+Once you have installed Flatland, head over to the [baselines repository](https://gitlab.aicrowd.com/flatland/baselines) to see how you can train your own reinforcement learning agent on Flatland.
+
+Check out this [tutorial](https://gitlab.aicrowd.com/flatland/baselines/blob/master/torch_training/Getting_Started_Training.md?_ga=2.193077805.1627822449.1571622829-1432296534.1549103074) to get a sense of how it works.
+
+### What is a observation builder and which should I use?
+Observation builders give you the possibility to generate custom observations for your controller (reinfocement learning agent, optimization algorithm,...). The observation builder has access to all environment data and can perform any operations on them as long as they are not changed.
+This [tutorial](http://flatland-rl-docs.s3-website.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/03_tutorials.html#custom-observations-and-custom-predictors-tutorial) will give you a sense on how to use them.
+### What is a predictor and which one should I use?
+Because railway traffic is limited to rails, many decisions that you have to take need to consider future situations and detect upcoming conflicts ahead of time. Therefore, flatland provides the possibility of predictors that predict where agents will be in the future. We provide a stock predictor that assumes each agent just travels along its shortest path.
+You can build more elaborate predictors and use them as part of your observation builder. You find more information [here](http://flatland-rl-docs.s3-website.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/03_tutorials.html#custom-observations-and-custom-predictors-tutorial).
+### What information is available about each agent?
+Each agent is an object and contains the following information:
+
+- `initial_position = attrib(type=Tuple[int, int])`: The initial position of an agent. This is where the agent will enter the environment. It is the start of the agent journey.
+- `position = attrib(default=None, type=Optional[Tuple[int, int]])`: This is the actual position of the agent. It is updated every step of the environment. Before the agent has entered the environment and after it leaves the environment it is set to `None`
+- `direction = attrib(type=Grid4TransitionsEnum)`: This is the direction an agent is facing. The values for directions are `North:0`, `East:1`, `South:2` and `West:3`.
+- `target = attrib(type=Tuple[int, int])`: This is the target position the agent has to find and reach. Once the agent reaches this position its taks is done.
+- `moving = attrib(default=False, type=bool)`: Because agents can have malfunctions or be stopped because their path is blocked we store the current state of an agent. If `agent.moving == True` the agent is currently advancing. If it is `False` the agent is either blocked or broken.
+- `speed_data = attrib(default=Factory(lambda: dict({'position_fraction': 0.0, 'speed': 1.0, 'transition_action_on_cellexit': 0})))`: This contains all the relevant information about the speed of an agent:
+    - The attribute `'position_fraction'` indicates how far the agent has advanced within the cell. As soon as this value becomes larger than `1` the agent advances to the next cell as defined by `'transition_action_on_cellexit'`.
+    - The attribute `'speed''` defines the travel speed of an agent. It can be any fraction smaller than 1.
+    - The attribute `'transition_action_on_cellexit'` contains the information about the action that will be performed at the exit of the cell. Due to speeds smaller than 1. agents have to take several steps within a cell. We however only allow an action to be chosen at cell entry.
+- `malfunction_data = attrib(default=Factory(lambda: dict({'malfunction': 0, 'malfunction_rate': 0, 'next_malfunction': 0, 'nr_malfunctions': 0,'moving_before_malfunction': False})))`: Contains all information relevant for agent malfunctions:
+    - The attribute `'malfunction` indicates if the agent is currently broken. If the value is larger than `0` the agent is broken. The integer value represents the number of `env.step()` calls the agent will still be broken.
+    - The attribute `'next_malfunction'` will be REMOVED as it serves no purpose anymore, malfunctions are now generated by a poisson process.
+    - The attribute `'nr_malfunctions'` is a counter that keeps track of the number of malfunctions a specific agent has had.
+    - The attribute `'moving_before_malfunction'` is an internal parameter used to restart agents that were moving automatically after the malfunction is fixed.
+- `status = attrib(default=RailAgentStatus.READY_TO_DEPART, type=RailAgentStatus)`: The status of the agent explains what the agent is currently doing. It can be in either one of these states:
+    - `READY_TO_DEPART` not in grid yet (position is None) 
+    - `ACTIVE` in grid (position is not None), not done
+    - `DONE` in grid (position is not None), but done
+    - `DONE_REMOVED` removed from grid (position is None)
+
+### Can I use my own reward function?
+Yes you can do reward shaping as you please. All information can be accessed directly in the env.
+### What are rail and schedule generators?
+To generate environments for Flatland you need to provide a railway infrastructure (rail) and a set of tasks for each agent to complete (schedule).
+### What is the max number of timesteps per episode?
+The maximum number of timesteps is `max_time_steps = 4 * 2 * (env.width + env.height + 20)`
+### What are malfunctions and what can i do to resolve them?
+Malfunctions occur according to a Poisson process. The hinder an agent from performing its actions and update its position. While an agent is malfunctioning it is blocking the paths for other agents. There is nothing you can do to fix an agent, it will get fixed automatically as soon as `agent.malfunction_data['malfunction'] == 0` .
+You can however adjust the other agent actions to avoid delay propagation within the railway network and keeping traffic as smooth as possible.
+
+### Can agents communication with each other?
+There is no communitcation layer built into Flatland directly. You can however build a communication layer outside of the Flatland environment if necessary.
+
+## Questions about bugs
+### Why are my trains drawn outside of the rails?
+If you render your environment and the agents appear to be off the rail it is usually due to changes in the railway infrastructure. Make sure that you reset your renderer anytime the infrastructure changes by calling `env_renderer.reset().
+`

+- `(x_dim, y_dim) <= (150, 150)`
+- `n_agents <= 250` (this might be updated)
+- `malfunction rates` this is currently being refactored
+
+### How can I experiment locally before submitting?
+You can follow the instruction in the [starter kit](https://github.com/AIcrowd/flatland-challenge-starter-kit) and use the [provided example files](https://www.aicrowd.com/challenges/flatland-challenge/dataset_files) to run your tests locally.
+
+If you want to generate your own test instances to test your solution you can either head over to the [torch baselines](https://gitlab.aicrowd.com/flatland/baselines/tree/master/torch_training) and get inspired by the setup there.
+Or you can generate your own test cases by using the same generators as used by the submission test set.
+
+In order to generate the appropriate levels you need to import the `malfunction_generator`, `rail_generator` and `schedule_generator` as follows:
+
+```
+from flatland.envs.malfunction_generators import malfunction_from_params
+from flatland.envs.rail_env import RailEnv
+from flatland.envs.rail_generators import sparse_rail_generator
+from flatland.envs.schedule_generators import sparse_schedule_generator
+```
+
+Then you can simply generate levels by instantiating:
+
+```python
+stochastic_data = {'malfunction_rate': 8000,  # Rate of malfunction occurence of single agent
+                   'min_duration': 15,  # Minimal duration of malfunction
+                   'max_duration': 50  # Max duration of malfunction
+                   }
+
+# Custom observation builder without predictor
+observation_builder = YourObservationBuilder()
+
+width = 16 * 7  # With of map
+height = 9 * 7  # Height of map
+nr_trains = 50  # Number of trains that have an assigned task in the env
+cities_in_map = 20  # Number of cities where agents can start or end
+seed = 14  # Random seed
+grid_distribution_of_cities = False  # Type of city distribution, if False cities are randomly placed
+max_rails_between_cities = 2  # Max number of tracks allowed between cities. This is number of entry point to a city
+max_rail_in_cities = 6  # Max number of parallel tracks within a city, representing a realistic trainstation
+
+rail_generator = sparse_rail_generator(max_num_cities=cities_in_map,
+                                       seed=seed,
+                                       grid_mode=grid_distribution_of_cities,
+                                       max_rails_between_cities=max_rails_between_cities,
+                                       max_rails_in_city=max_rail_in_cities,
+                                       )
+# Different agent types (trains) with different speeds.
+speed_ration_map = {1.: 0.25,  # Fast passenger train
+                    1. / 2.: 0.25,  # Fast freight train
+                    1. / 3.: 0.25,  # Slow commuter train
+                    1. / 4.: 0.25}  # Slow freight train
+
+# We can now initiate the schedule generator with the given speed profiles
+
+schedule_generator = sparse_schedule_generator(speed_ration_map)
+
+# Construct the enviornment with the given observation, generataors, predictors, and stochastic data
+env = RailEnv(width=width,
+              height=height,
+              rail_generator=rail_generator,
+              schedule_generator=schedule_generator,
+              number_of_agents=nr_trains,
+              obs_builder_object=observation_builder,
+              malfunction_generator_and_process_data=malfunction_from_params(stochastic_data),
+              remove_agents_at_target=True)
+```
+
+For the testing of you submission you should test different levels in these parameter ranges:
+
+- `width` and `height` between `20` and `150`
+- `nr_train` between `50` and `200`
+- `n_cities` between `2` and `35`
+- `max_rails_between_cities` between `2` and `4`
+- `max_rail_in_city` between `3` and `6`
+- `malfunction_rate` between `500` and `4000`
+- `min_duration` and `max_duration` in ranges from `20` to `80`
+- speeds you can keep more or less equally distributed.
+
+
+With these parameters you should get a good feeling of the test cases your algorithm will be tested against.

+Flatland is a open-source toolkit for developing and comparing Multi Agent Reinforcement Learning algorithms in little (or ridiculously large!) gridworlds.
+
+[The official documentation](http://flatland.aicrowd.com/) contains full details about the environment and problem statement
+
+Flatland is tested with Python 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8 on modern versions of macOS, Linux and Windows. You may encounter problems with graphical rendering if you use WSL. Your [contribution is welcome](https://flatland.aicrowd.com/misc/contributing.html) if you can help with this!

-Flatland is a opensource toolkit for developing and comparing Multi Agent Reinforcement Learning algorithms in little (or ridiculously large !) gridworlds.
-The base environment is a two-dimensional grid in which many agents can be placed, and each agent must solve one or more navigational tasks in the grid world. More details about the environment and the problem statement can be found in the official docs `here <http://flatland-rl-docs.s3-website.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/>`_.
