Is there any way to get the agent's location, i.e. (x,y,z) coordinates during the simulation?

Hey! If you create this environment, you should see more entries in the obs than just the image (or in the info variable), which should also contain position information somewhere in there. Sorry for lack of details, stopping by atm ^^

Thanks for the reply. Is there any easy way to enable the position info in some pre-defined environment?

For example: In the tutorial: Hello World: Your First Agent (https://minerl.readthedocs.io/en/stable/tutorials/first_agent.html)

env = gym.make('MineRLBasaltFindCave-v0')

Is it possible to insert several lines of code to enable the position info?

You would have to modify the MineRL code a bit and copy stuff from here (in HumanSurvival env) to here in a right way, but that should do the trick.

PS: Just for clarity, modifying environment in the BASALT competition is not allowed. Highlighting this as the competition is currently ongoing :)
