Meanwhile, when one or more game conditions set for a specific input button among the one or more input buttons are met, the game action determination unit 220 selects a preset game action among one or more game actions set for the specific input button in response to the satisfied game condition. The highest priority game action can be determined as the game action to be executed by manipulating a specific input button.

The priority can be freely set by the operator of the game server 110 or the user of the gaming device 120. As an example, in the case of priority for game actions corresponding to when the user's character in the game is attacked, the use of a specific skill that increases defense is ranked first, and the use of a specific item that increases defense is ranked second. can be set. As another example, in the case of priority for game actions corresponding to the case where the physical strength of the user's character in the game falls below a set value, the use of a skill to teleport to a specific location is the first priority, and the use of a skill to instantly move to a specific location is the first priority, and the use of a skill that increases physical strength by a certain amount is the first priority. The use of items may be set as the second priority, and the use of skills to return to a specific village may be set as the third priority.

Meanwhile, the game action determination unit 220 determines whether the game action execution conditions for each of one or more game actions are met, and specifies the game action with the highest preset priority among the game actions for which the game action execution conditions are met. You can determine the game action to be executed by operating the button.

The game operation execution condition may be the cooldown time of the skill (the time to wait before using the same skill again after using the skill). However, the conditions for executing game operations are not limited to these. For example, the game action execution conditions include the user's character's predetermined physical strength or magical power required to use a specific skill, the separation distance between game objects required to use a specific skill, the user's character's predetermined level required to use a specific item, etc. This may vary from game to game.
