Access to screen_descriptions observation key

NeurIPS 2021 - The NetHack Challenge
,
#1

The screen_descriptions observation key is not accessible in the NethackChallenge class and it’s not possible to enable it for submissions ( or is it ?? ). Also the HELP ( “?” ) function is disabled even if it’s available in the game and it’s the only way to know if the dog is tame and if a monster is peaceful.

Is it possible to enable the key for the challenge ?

Hey Olivier,

I believe GLANCE (;) should work for that purpose?
