ML-Agent Dodgeball example environment setup instructions invalid

[HRJBart]

Dodgeball issues:

Env:

Linux Manjaro 21.1

Unity Hub 2.4.5

Unity Editor 2020.3.24f1 (LTS)

ML Agents 2.1.0-exp.1
ML Agents Extensions 0.5.0-preview

Git installs:

/home/xxxxx/Desktop/Unity/ml-agents/

/home/xxxx/Desktop/Unity/ml-agents/com.unity.ml-agents/
/home/xxxx/Desktop/Unity/ml-agents/com.unity.ml-agents.extensions/
/home/xxxx/Desktop/Unity/ml-agents/ml-agents-dodgeball-env/

Unity Projects currently working:

/home/xxxx/Desktop/Unity/ml-agents/com.unity.ml-agents/Project/Assets/ML-Agents/

Examples successfully installed into project and run in inference mode - no issues.

Instructions for the Dodgeball example environment followed (https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/ml-agents-dodgeball-env):

To open this repository, you will need to install the Unity editor version 2020.2.6 or later.

Clone the dodgeball-env branch of this repository by running:

git clone https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/ml-agents-dodgeball-env.git

Open the root folder in Unity. Then, navigate to Assets/Dodgeball/Scenes/TitleScreen.unity, open it,
and hit the play button to play against pre-trained agents. You can also build this scene (along with
the Elimination.unity and CaptureTheFlag.unity scenes) into a game build and play from there.

Opening the "root" folder in Unity? Please explain what this is.. for example is it:

a) open /home/xxxx/Desktop/Unity/ml-agents/ml-agents-dodgeball-env/ as a project? - does not work, results in too many errors to document.
b) open /home/xxxx/Desktop/Unity/ml-agents/ml-agents-dodgeball-env/Assets/Dodgeball/Scenes/TitleScreen.unity as a scene? - does not work either.

The promise of the tools available in Unity are immense and I look forward to using it it a
significant tool environment for some of my projects. I am not new to Machine Learning but
I am very new to Unity. Can you please provide a more detailed installation guide that may be
suitable for an Unity novice.

Cheers
Howard

Hey Howard, hope you figured this out yet. The "Root" folder is your option a). What are the errors, and do they clear if you restart Unity?

Thanks for the follow up. Got it working by experimentation - trial and error - not great but with a limited knowledge such as I have, it was the most effective approach to take. Cheers Howard
