Typically a timelimit, but could also be used to indicate agent physically going out of bounds.

It also can contain information that distinguishes truncation and termination, however this is deprecated in favour of returning two booleans, and will be removed in a future version. (deprecated) done (bool): A boolean value for if the episode has ended, in which case further :meth:`step` calls will return undefined results.
