Obstacle Tower can be configured in a variety of ways both when launching the environment and on episode reset. Below are a list of parameters, along with the ranges of values and what they correspond to. Pass these as part of a config dictionary when calling env.reset(config=config), or pass them as part of a dicitonary when launching the environment in ObstacleTowerEnv('path_to_binary', config=config).
Note: The config passed on environment launch will be the default used when starting a new episode if there is no config passed during env.reset().
