Introduction to the Minecraft environment

The original OpenAI Gym does not contain the Minecraft environment. We need to install a Minecraft environment bundle, available at https://github.com/tambetm/gym-minecraft. This bundle is built based on Microsoft's Malmö, which is a platform for AI experimentation and research built on top of Minecraft.

Before installing the gym-minecraft package, Malmö should first be downloaded from https://github.com/Microsoft/malmo. We can download the latest pre-built version from https://github.com/Microsoft/malmo/releases. After unzipping the package, go to the Minecraft folder and run launchClient.bat on Windows, or launchClient.sh on Linux/MacOS, to launch a Minecraft environment. If it is successfully launched, we can now install gym-minecraft via the following scripts:

python3 -m pip install gym
python3 -m pip install pygame

git clone https://github.com/tambetm/minecraft-py.git
cd minecraft-py
python setup.py install

git clone https://github.com/tambetm...
