# โ„๏ธ **PPO Agent on SnowballTarget**

This repository contains a trained **Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO)** agent that plays the **SnowballTarget** environment using the [Unity ML-Agents Library](https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/ml-agents).

---

## ๐Ÿ“Š Model Card

**Model Name:** `ppo-SnowballTarget`  
**Environment:** `SnowballTarget` (Unity ML-Agents)  
**Algorithm:** PPO (Proximal Policy Optimization)  
**Performance Metric:**  
- Achieves stable performance in target-hitting tasks  
- Demonstrates convergence to an effective policy  

---

## ๐Ÿš€ Usage (with ML-Agents)

Documentation: [ML-Agents Toolkit Docs](https://unity-technologies.github.io/ml-agents/ML-Agents-Toolkit-Documentation/)

```bash
mlagents-learn <your_configuration_file_path.yaml> --run-id=<run_id> --resume
```

```python
# Example: loading the trained PPO model
# (requires Unity ML-Agents setup)
model_id = "KraTUZen/ppo-SnowballTarget"
# Select your .nn or .onnx file from the repo
```

---

## ๐Ÿง  Notes
- The agent is trained using **PPO**, a robust on-policy algorithm widely used in Unity ML-Agents.  
- The environment involves **throwing snowballs at targets**, requiring precision and timing.  
- The trained model is stored as `.nn` or `.onnx` files for direct Unity integration.  

---

## ๐Ÿ“‚ Repository Structure
- `SnowballTarget.nn` / `SnowballTarget.onnx` โ†’ Trained PPO policy  
- `README.md` โ†’ Documentation and usage guide  

---

## โœ… Results
- The agent learns to consistently hit targets with snowballs.  
- Demonstrates stable training and effective policy convergence using PPO.  

---

## ๐Ÿ”Ž Environment Overview
- **Observation Space:** Continuous (agent position, target position, environment state)  
- **Action Space:** Continuous (throwing angle, force)  
- **Objective:** Maximize hits on targets with snowballs  
- **Reward:** Positive reward for successful hits, penalties for misses  

---

## ๐Ÿ“š Learning Highlights
- **Algorithm:** PPO (Proximal Policy Optimization)  
- **Update Rule:** Clipped surrogate objective to ensure stable updates  
- **Strengths:** Robust, stable, widely used in Unity ML-Agents  
- **Limitations:** Requires careful tuning of hyperparameters (clip ratio, learning rate, batch size)
