Description#
You are a racer in the National Enduro, a long-distance endurance race. You must overtake a certain amount of cars each day to stay on the race. The first day you need to pass 200 cars, and 300 for each following day. The game ends if you do not meet your overtake quota for the day.
Detailed documentation can be found on the AtariAge page.
Actions#
By default, all actions that can be performed on an Atari 2600 are available in this environment.
However, if you use v0 or v4 or specify full_action_space=False during initialization, only a reduced
number of actions (those that are meaningful in this game) are available. The reduced action space may depend
on the flavor of the environment (the combination of mode and difficulty). The reduced action space for the default
flavor looks like this:
Num |
Action |
|---|---|
0 |
NOOP |
1 |
UP |
2 |
RIGHT |
3 |
LEFT |
4 |
DOWN |
5 |
UPRIGHT |
6 |
UPLEFT |

Observations#
By default, the environment returns the RGB image that is displayed to human players as an observation. However, it is possible to observe
The 128 Bytes of RAM of the console
A grayscale image
instead. The respective observation spaces are
Box([0 ... 0], [255 ... 255], (128,), uint8)Box([[0 ... 0] ... [0 ... 0]], [[255 ... 255] ... [255 ... 255]], (250, 160), uint8)
respectively. The general article on Atari environments outlines different ways to instantiate corresponding environments
via gym.make.
Rewards#
You get 1 point for each vehicle you overtake.
Arguments#
env = gym.make("ALE/Enduro-v5")
The various ways to configure the environment are described in detail in the article on Atari environments.
It is possible to specify various flavors of the environment via the keyword arguments difficulty and mode.
A flavor is a combination of a game mode and a difficulty setting.

You may use the suffix “-ram” to switch to the RAM observation space. In v0 and v4, the suffixes “Deterministic” and “Noframeskip”
are available. These are no longer supported in v5. In order to obtain equivalent behavior, pass keyword arguments to gym.make as outlined in
the general article on Atari environments.
The versions v0 and v4 are not contained in the “ALE” namespace. I.e. they are instantiated via gym.make("Enduro-v0").
Version History#
A thorough discussion of the intricate differences between the versions and configurations can be found in the general article on Atari environments.
v5: Stickiness was added back and stochastic frameskipping was removed. The entire action space is used by default. The environments are now in the “ALE” namespace.
v4: Stickiness of actions was removed
v0: Initial versions release (1.0.0)
