Release notes:

Environment Pak Files

Added Qualifier pakfiles. Tier 1 and 3 are in the soccer field environment, in the same pak file. Tier 2 track is in the ZhangJiaJie environment in a different pakfile.

Release notes:

We are introducing a validation submission pipeline so that participants can see how they are performing w.r.t. others, and for us to get feedback on how easy or hard the race tracks are currently.
Please note that this leaderboard is not for the qualification rounds. This is effectively a dry run for you to gauge your performance and for us to gather feedback. The qualification binaries with new race tracks will be released next month.
Website updates:

- API doc page
- Upload validation log files
- Validation Leaderboard

Environment Pak Files

LoadLevel() is neater in that drones don't fall from the sky.
Fixed disqualify bug - https://github.com/microsoft/AirSim-NeurIPS2019-Drone-Racing/issues/43
Optimized performance of ZhangJiaJie and Building 99 environments

APIs

New APIs
- Sim / Race APIs:
- Set controller gain APIs:
Changes in existing APIs:
- setTrajectoryTrackerGains(): Earlier, the signature was setTrajectoryTrackerGains(gains, vehicle_name=''), where gains was a list of floats, obtained by calling TrajectoryTrackerGains().to_list().
  Now, you just need to pass a TrajectoryTrackerGains object, akin to the above set*ControllerGains() APIs: setTrajectoryTrackerGains(gains=<airsimneurips.types.TrajectoryTrackerGains instance>, vehicle_name='')
- moveOnSpline() and moveOnSplineVelConstraintsAsync() have a bug fix, some new features, and some param name changes
  - Fixed a bug which was causing moveOnSpline*() APIs to fail randomly while replanning with multiple waypoints.
  - Plan from lookahead point - see replan_from_lookahead(bool) and replan_lookahead_sec(float) params.
  - Trajectory visualization
    - works for multiple drones (viz_traj bool param)
    - plots requested waypoints automatically (no need for extraneous plot_transform() calls.
    - supports user-defined color with the new viz_traj_color_rgba param, which takes a list of four floats to specify RGBA.
  - Trajectory stitching constraints:
    - Stitch trajectories with acceleration using new add_acceleration_constraint bool param.
    - add_curr_odom_position_constraint has been renamed to add_position_constraint(bool).
    - add_curr_odom_velocity_constraint has been renamed to add_velocity_constraint(bool)
  - path param has been renamed to waypoints param

Release notes:

Environment Pak Files

Environments contain the same levels as the previous release, but now include the necessary fabric to create and perform races

APIs

simStartRace() - Starts a race event when applicable
simResetRace() - Resets all elements of current race (gates passed, penalties, and time is cleared, racers are returned to start position)
simGetObjectScale(object_name) - Get 3D scale Vector3r of specified object
simSetObjectScale(object_name, scale_vector) - Set the scale of the specified object using a Vector3r input

Bug fixes:

Fixed a bug in moveByAngleRatesZAsync and moveByRollPitchYawrateZAsync, which was causing the sent commands to latch on indefinitely, instead of being timed out after duration (function parameter) seconds had elapsed.
