Description

  The present invention relates to a ball game machine such as a pachinko machine, an arrangement ball machine, or a sparrow ball game machine, and in particular, to provide a notice effect when a plurality of holding balls are held continuously over a plurality of symbol variations. It relates to what was made.

  Conventionally, in a ball game machine such as a first type of pachinko machine, in addition to a normal winning means, a normal symbol starting means (so-called gate means) and a special symbol starting means (so-called electric tulip) are added to the game board. 1) a normal symbol display means capable of variably displaying one or more normal symbols; a special symbol display means capable of variably displaying a plurality of special symbols; and a large prize opening means called an attacker (opening and closing type prize means). When the game ball launched into the game area of the game board by the launching means wins the special symbol starting means, a plurality of special symbols on the special symbol display means change for a predetermined variation time.

  At this time, if the result of the lottery at the time of winning the special symbol starting means of the game ball is a big win, the stop symbol after the change becomes a specific symbol mode (a so-called “777” or other big hit symbol mode) and a big prize is won. The mouth means repeats the opening / closing operation up to a set number of times (for example, 16 rounds) based on a predetermined condition, and a special game that is a profit state advantageous to the player is generated. In this case, a plurality of game balls can be won while the special winning opening means is opened, and a great profit is returned to the player.

  By the way, when a plurality of game balls that have passed through the gate means are sequentially detected during the variation of the normal symbol, or when a plurality of game balls that have won the special symbol starter are sequentially detected during the variation of the special symbol, Each of the reserved balls is stored up to a preset upper limit number (for example, 4), and every time the symbol variation ends, the number of reserved balls is reduced by 1 and digested. The symbol variation is repeated until the sphere is gone.

  In this case, for example, when the lottery value regarding the reserved ball that has won the special symbol starting means as the fourth hold is a big hit, the symbol that digests the fourth hold from the symbol variation that digests the first hold. For each change over the change, a notice effect is continuously performed so that a player has a great sense of expectation for a big hit, and the player's ball game is excited.

For this purpose, in the control device, the game control means that controls the game board side gives the notice control display to execute the notice effect display at each point of time when the continuous notice is given to the effect control means that controls the symbol variation and the effect display. A production command is transmitted. Therefore, every time the notice control command transmitted from the game control means is received, the effect control means faithfully performs the notice effect indicated by the notice effect command.

  The main control board 39 and the other control boards 40, 42, 45 are electrically connected through a connector with a plurality of signal lines, and a predetermined number is sent from the main control board 39 to each control board 42 (40), 45. Various control commands for executing the game operation can be basically transmitted by one-way communication. By adopting the one-way communication of the control command, it is possible to reliably prevent fraud related to the stop of symbols of normal symbols and special symbols. However, the main control board 39 can receive a payout completion signal, an error signal, and the like from the payout control board 45.

  Next, various functions achieved through a plurality of control programs stored in advance in the control device of the pachinko machine 2B will be described with reference to the functional block diagrams of FIGS. However, these various functions are achieved by these control means 50B, 90B, 80, 100 and 106 by the various control microcomputers described above and various control programs stored in the ROM.

  The main control means 50B (which corresponds to the game control means) configured on the main control board 39 controls the game operation according to the game mode and the behavior of the game ball, that is, various games provided on the game board 5. It mainly controls game control of the game board 5 related to input / output of signals with respect to the ball detection switches and the like provided in the parts 20 and 21 and various game ball winning means 18 to 21 and the like. A control command is transmitted and output as necessary to the control means 90B, the payout control means 100, and the like.

  The symbol control means 90B (this corresponds to the effect control means) configured on the symbol control board 40 is a normal pattern variation pattern designation command transmitted from the main control means 50B via the sound lamp control means 80, etc. Based on the above, fluctuation control is performed on the normal symbols of the display units 24a and 24b, and the fluctuation stop is controlled so as to display the designated normal symbol mode. The symbol control means 90B further controls the variation of the special symbols of the display units 23a to 23c based on the received variation symbol designation command for the special symbols, and stops changing so as to display the designated special symbol mode. Effect display control is executed to display the background or the like on substantially the entire screen of the display means 22 excluding the normal symbol display means 24.

  The sound lamp control means 80 configured on the sound lamp control board 42 receives the variation pattern designation command from the main control means 50B, and makes a number of decoration lamps and effects provided on the game board 5, the front frame 4 and the like. In addition to controlling lighting of the lamp group 87 including lamps and the like, the speaker 88 provided on the back side of the ball tray 8 is driven and controlled to control sound output. The sound lamp control means 80 further receives a reserved ball number information command from the main control means 50B, and controls lighting of the four reserved ball lamps 87a to 87d for special symbols provided in the center case 25.

  The payout control means 100 configured on the payout control board 45 receives a payout control command from the main control means 50 and controls payout of game balls by the payout / ball lending means 35. An external interface substrate 48 is further accommodated inside the substrate case 43, and external interface means 105 is configured on the external interface substrate 48. The launch control means 106 configured on the launch control board 47 controls the launch of the game ball by driving the launch motor 13. Here, from the external output board 32, the number of fluctuations related to the special symbol, information on the stop symbol, and the like are transmitted and output to an island computer (not shown) provided in the pachinko hall.

  The main control means 50B includes a random number generating means 51 having both special symbols and ordinary symbols, an extracting means 52, a holding means 53, a determining means 54, a symbol variation determining means 55B, and a probability varying means 56. And a normal profit state generating means 57, a special profit state generating means 58, a command transmission / reception means 59, a winning counting means 60, a winning command creating means 61, a special effect updating means 62, and the like. Here, the random number generation means 51, the extraction means 52, the determination means 54, and the like constitute lottery means for normal symbols and special symbols, respectively.

  Of the plurality of control random numbers (0 to 108) generated cyclically by the random number generation means 51, the extraction means 52 is 1 when the game ball passes through the normal symbol starting means 18 on either the left or right side for the normal symbol. One control random number is extracted, and for the special symbol, one control random number when the game ball wins the special symbol starting means 20 is extracted. The holding means 53 temporarily stores the number of game balls passed through the normal symbol starting means 18 regardless of whether or not the normal symbol is changing, and stores it as a holding ball only when the normal symbol is changing. With respect to each of the holding balls, up to four control random numbers extracted for normal symbols can be stored and held as hitting random numbers.

  The holding means 53 temporarily stores the number of game balls won in the special symbol starting means 20 regardless of whether or not the special symbol is changing, and stores it as a holding ball only when the special symbol is changing. At the same time, up to four control random numbers extracted for special symbols can be stored and held for each of the holding balls as a jackpot determination random number value. Then, each time the symbol variation of the normal symbol is completed, the holding unit 53 supplies the pending hit determination random number one by one to the determining unit 54 by first-in first-out, so that the symbol variation of the special symbol is changed. Each time it is completed, the pending jackpot determination random number value is supplied to the determination means 54 one by one in a first-in first-out manner.

  The determination means 54 is either “win” or “off” that matches the specific random number (hit determination value) at the time before the fluctuation of the normal symbol for the normal symbol hit determination random number supplied from the holding means 53. Determine if there is. Further, the determination unit 54 further determines that the jackpot determination random number value for the special symbol supplied from the holding unit 53 is a “big hit” or “off” that matches the specific random number (the jackpot determination value) before the change of the special symbol. It is determined whether it is “includes reach reach”.

  The determination means 54 also makes a determination regarding the probability variation type jackpot, and if it is determined that the probability variation type is determined, after the special game in the profit state is finished, until the next or one after another, or Until the special symbol fluctuates a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times), the number of specific random numbers (big hit judgment value) that is a big hit is set to the probability changing means 56 via the special profit state generating means 58 from the normal time. Command to increase the probability of jackpots higher than usual. The judging means 54 has three jackpot judgment values in the low probability state and has twenty jackpot judgment values including three jackpot judgment values in the low probability state in the high probability state.

  When the probability variation mode is set, the probability variation means 56 instructs the ordinary profit state generation means 57 described later to give a predetermined profit. This is also a profit state advantageous to the player. When the normal profit state generating means 57 receives the above-described probability fluctuation instruction from the probability fluctuation means 56, the normal electric means 20a of the special symbol starting means 20 is opened at the normal time on condition that the normal symbol is “winning”. The player is given a profit state in which the game ball can easily enter, for example, by opening it for a time (for example, about 3 seconds) longer than the time (for example, about 0.5 seconds).

  The special profit state generation means 58 further receives a determination result of the jackpot from the determination means 54, or the predetermined profit included in the game control on condition that the stop symbol after the change of the special symbol display means 23 becomes the jackpot symbol. The opening / closing plate 21a of the special winning opening means 21 is opened / closed as described above by the profit state generation routine. The symbol variation determining means 55, according to the determination result from the determining means 54, with a predetermined lottery program, when the symbol is “winning”, the variation symbol designating command for the normal symbol relating to the winning, the left symbol and the right symbol The symbol designating command for this is determined by lottery.

The winning command creation means 61 includes an effect mode flag table TB1 shown in FIG. 6, a winning command determination table TB2 shown in FIG. 7, a mode selection table 1TB3a shown in FIG. 8A, and a mode selection shown in FIG. 8B. A table 2TB3b, a winning status command 1 table TB4a shown in FIG. 9A and a winning status command 2 table TB4b shown in FIG. 9B, and a control program for winning command creation control at the time of winning shown in FIG. is doing. Here, the two effect modes corresponding to the values “6” and “7” of the effect mode flag set by the effect mode flag table TB1 shown in FIG. 6 correspond to a plurality of types of the notice effect modes. The notice effect mode includes a mode in which no notice effect is performed.

  Therefore, each time the game ball wins the special symbol starting means 20, the winning command creating means 61 uses the tables TB1 to TB4 to change the symbols a plurality of times by the winning command creating control program described later. A winning state command for determining whether or not to make a character appear and which character to appear and produce when it appears is created. The special effect update means 62 has a mode determination table TB5 shown in FIG. 10, and updates the value of the effect mode flag as the special symbol changes sequentially to the next symbol change, thereby It performs effect update control for switching effect contents, and has a special effect update control program shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the symbol variation determining means 55B comprises a stop symbol determining means 55a, a variation pattern switching means 55b, and the like, and in particular, determines a special symbol stop symbol or variation pattern. The stop symbol determining means 55a stops the jackpot in the case of a big hit based on the big hit determination random number value in the held ball information immediately before the change of the symbol change corresponding to the winning of the special ball for the game ball to the special symbol start means 20 A symbol is determined, and in the case of disengagement, a disengagement stop symbol (including disengagement reach stop symbol) is determined.

  Therefore, the stop symbol determining means 55a includes the jackpot symbol table TB6 shown in FIG. 12, the jackpot offset table TB7 shown in FIG. 13, the off-right special stop symbol creating address table TB8 shown in FIG. Off-right special stop symbol creation table (1-11) TB9 shown in a) to (k), a special off-stop symbol creation address table TB10 shown in FIG. 16, and FIGS. 17 (a) to (h) and FIG. (I)-(p) It has a special stop symbol creation table (1-16) TB11 during detachment, a special stop symbol creation control program shown in FIGS.

  The winning counting means 60 counts the game balls to be won in the normal winning means 19, the special symbol starting means 20, and the special winning area 21 b and the normal winning area 21 c included in the big winning opening means 21. Therefore, the command transmission / reception means 59 transmits a payout command command for instructing the payout of game balls based on the number of game balls received by the winning counting means 60 to the payout control means 100, and from the payout control means 100. Receives the confirmation command, the payout completion command, and the error occurrence command received from the command.

  The command transmission / reception means 59 further transmits and outputs to the control means 80, 90B, 100 to which various control commands such as a hold number information command related to the number of game balls held and a probability change information command indicating a probability change state are to be sent.

Next, the symbol control means 90B of the ball game machine 2B will be described.
As shown in FIG. 19, the symbol control means 90B includes a command transmission / reception means 91, a fluctuation pattern storage means 92, a fluctuation pattern determination means 93, a random number generation means 94, an effect control means 95, and a display device control means. 96, a liquid crystal driver 97, a notice effect selection control means 98, and the like.

  The command transmission / reception unit 91 receives a variation pattern designation command and a symbol designation command from the command transmission / reception unit 81 of the sound lamp control unit 80 and can transmit various control commands to the command transmission / reception unit 81. . The variation pattern storage unit 92 stores variation pattern information related to symbol variation in which variation contents (including variation time) are associated with each of a plurality of variation pattern designation commands for normal symbols and special symbols.

  The variation pattern determination unit 93 selects variation pattern information corresponding to the variation pattern designation command, and when a plurality of options are provided in the variation pattern information, a predetermined number of random number generation unit 94 generates a predetermined number. One of the control random numbers is extracted, and one option is determined based on the extracted control random number. The effect control means 95 can execute a special effect specified by the above-described variation pattern and a specific effect specific to the present application.

  The display device control unit 96 transmits and outputs various symbol display signals related to symbol variation received from the variation pattern determination unit 93 to the liquid crystal driver 97, and transmits and outputs the effect control signal received from the effect control unit 95 to the liquid crystal driver 97. To do. Therefore, the special symbols are displayed in a variable manner on the display portions 23a to 23c of the special symbol display means 23, and the normal symbols are displayed in addition to the normal symbols in the display portions 24a and 24b of the normal symbol display means 24. Various effects are displayed on substantially the entire display screen of the liquid crystal display 16 excluding the means 24.

  The notice effect selection control means 98 includes a continuous notice determination table TB12 shown in FIG. 20, a notice effect data selection table 1 (normal use) TB13 shown in FIG. 21, and a notice effect data selection table 2 (continuous notice shown in FIG. 22). 32) and the advance notice selection control program shown in FIG. 32, etc., and based on the winning state command transmitted from the main control means 50B, the effect control is performed while the character appears over a plurality of symbol variations. Execute.

Next, winning command creation control at the time of winning will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG. This winning command creation control is called and executed when the game ball wins the special symbol starting means 20 and the reserved ball information related to winning is created.
When this control is started, first, when the value of the effect mode flag for setting the presence / absence of the effect and the content of the effect is other than “0”, that is, when the game ball is awarded to the special symbol starting means 20, the effect has some contents. If there is an unfinished notice effect that has been executed (S121: No), this control is terminated and the process returns to the main routine. Therefore, the overlap of the notice effects is prevented so that the notice effects are not duplicated.

  If no performance is currently being performed and the value of the performance mode flag is “0” (S121: Yes), based on the winning command determination table TB2, the big hit determination disorder of the reserved ball information created by the current winning is It is repeatedly determined up to 9 times whether the numerical value matches any of the nine specific determination values including the three jackpot determination values “271”, “607”, and “907” (S122). Here, the winning command determination table TB2 includes the determination count “9”, three jackpot determination values, and specific numerical values “270”, “272”, “606”. Nine specific determination values consisting of “” are preset.

  Therefore, if the current jackpot determination random number value matches one of the specific determination values (S123: Yes), when the determination count value is 7 or more, that is, the determination processing count is within 3 times and the jackpot When the determination random number value matches any of the three jackpot determination values, which is advantageous to the player (S124: Yes), the mode selection table 1TB3a is selected (S125), but the determination count value is 6. If it is less than that and the jackpot determination random number value coincides with a mere specific value other than the jackpot determination value (S124: No), the mode selection table 2TB3b is selected (S126).

  Next, the number of times of processing N stored in the selected mode selection tables 1 and 2 is read and set (S127), and further, the winning status values in the mode selection tables 1 and 2 are read (S128). Next, one of the effect selection random values (0 to 96) is extracted and set as a random value (S129). Next, this random number value is updated to the numerical value of the subtraction result obtained by subtracting the first subtraction value “29” from the random number value (S130), and when the random number value is not a negative number (when no carry occurs) (S131: No), the process count N is decremented by 1 (S132), and if the process count N is "0" (S133: Yes), the process returns.

  However, if the processing count N is not “0” (S133: No), the random value is updated to the subtraction result obtained by subtracting the next subtraction value from the random value (S134), and the random value is not a negative number. (S131: No), S131 to S134 are repeatedly executed. When the random number value becomes a negative number (S131: Yes), the reserved ball number of the current special symbol is set as the value of the effect counter (S135), and the value of the effect mode flag is set based on the reserved ball number. (S136).

  In this case, when the mode selection table 1TB3a is selected, the value of the effect mode flag when the subtraction value “29” is negative when the subtraction value “29” is subtracted is when the number of reserved balls of the special symbol is “1” Is “2”, “1” when the number of reserved balls of the special symbol is “2”, and “1” when the number of reserved balls of the special symbol is “3 or 4” is there. In addition, the value of the effect mode flag when the subtraction value “23” is negative when the subtraction value “23” is subtracted is “7” when the number of reserved balls of the special symbol is “1”, and the special symbol is reserved. When the number of balls is “2”, it is “6”, and when the number of reserved balls of the special symbol is “3 or 4”, it is also “6”.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 6, when the effect mode flag value is “0”, it is normal, no effect is given, and the effect mode flag values “1” to “2” are continuous. It is a design slip effect, when the effect mode flag value is “3” to “5”, it is a two-continuous reach notice effect, and when the effect mode flag value is “6” to “7”, it is a notice effect that causes a continuous character to appear. is there.

  Next, when the command transmission determination value of the selected mode selection tables 1 and 2 is “0” (S137: Yes), this control is terminated and the process returns, so that the winning status command is not transmitted. However, since the command transmission determination value is “1” only when the subtraction value “23” is negative when the subtraction value “23” is subtracted, that is, when the character effect is performed (S137: No), the winning state If the value of “1” is “1”, that is, if the jackpot determination random number value is advantageous to the player who matches any of the jackpot determination values, a winning state command 1 corresponding to the number of held balls is set (S139).

  On the other hand, when the value of the winning state is “2”, that is, when the jackpot determination random number value is not advantageous to the player who matches a mere specific value other than the jackpot determination value, the winning state command corresponding to the number of held balls 2 is set (S140). As shown in FIG. 9 (a), the winning state command 1 table TB4a is provided with four types (B201 [H] to B204 [H]) according to the number of reserved balls (1 to 4). Yes. Further, as shown in FIG. 9B, the winning status command 2 table TB4b is provided with four types (B301 [H] to B304 [H]) according to the number of reserved balls (1 to 4). It has been. Here, S129 to S134 correspond to a predetermined mode determination theory, S136 corresponds to a mode determination means, and S139 and S140 correspond to a production command creation means.

  Thus, as a winning state command created when a game ball wins the special symbol starting means 20, it is provided for each of the maximum number of retained balls “4” when a profit state occurs and is advantageous to the player. There are 8 types, 4 types, and 4 types provided for each of the maximum number of reserved balls “4” in the case where the profit state does not occur and it is not advantageous to the player. If it is advantageous to the player based on the number of balls, one of these four types (B201 [H] to B204 [H]) of winning status commands 1 can be selected and transmitted. If it is not advantageous to the player, any one of these four types (B301 [H] to B304 [H]) of winning status commands 2 can be selected and transmitted.

Next, the special stop symbol creation control will be described based on the flowcharts of FIGS. This control is executed immediately before the symbol change corresponding to the winning of the game ball to the special symbol starting means 20 is executed and after the determination means 54 determines whether or not it is a big hit.
When this control is started, first, the jackpot symbol random number value (0 to 29) included in the reserved ball information regarding the reserved ball subjected to the symbol variation is set as an offset value (S141).

  Next, as a result of the jackpot determination, if the jackpot flag is set and the jackpot flag is set (spotter flag data = 1) (S142: Yes), first, the jackpot symbol table TB6 shown in FIG. 12 is set in S141. Based on the offset value, the left special symbol number is set (determined) (S143), the middle special symbol number is set (determined) (S144), and the right special symbol number is set (determined) (S145). The right special symbol number is set (determined) (S146), and special symbol determination data is set (S147).

  Here, the special symbol at the right end is a symbol that does not look very good to the player, and even if it is confirmed in the even symbol mode, it is controlled to set the probability variation state or non-probability variation state. It is provided to do. In the special symbol determination data, “0” indicates a non-probability variation state, and “1” indicates a probability variation state.

  Next, the value of the production mode flag (0 to 7) is set as the offset value (S148), and the offset value and the value of the state flag (0: low probability state, 1: normal symbol variation time) from the jackpot offset table TB7. Based on the shortened state, 2: high probability state), a special symbol stop offset value is set (S149), and this control is terminated and the process returns.

  That is, for the special symbol, the jackpot variation pattern selection table for selecting the variation pattern for jackpot is switched based on the value of the special symbol stop offset. In this way, the variation pattern selection table is switched, and the symbol sliding effect is continuously performed according to the value of the effect mode flag (0 to 7) or continuously over two symbol variations. Reach notice directing is performed.

  On the other hand, if it is not a big win (S142: No), as shown in FIG. 27, first, as the rightmost special stop symbol number, one numerical value extracted from the random numbers (0 to 2) for generating the special symbol for losing is set. (Determined) (S150), one numerical value extracted from random numbers (0 to 9) for generating special symbols for losing is set as the left special stop symbol number (S151). Thereby, the right end special stop symbol and the left special stop symbol for detachment are respectively determined. Next, the value of the effect mode flag is set as the offset value (S152), and the off-right special stop symbol creation table (1) based on the state flag value and the offset value from the off-right special stop symbol creation address table TB8. To 11) are selected (S153).

  Next, as the random number value, one numerical value extracted from the random numbers for generating a special symbol for detachment (1 to 100) is set (S154), and the random number value is selected from the random number value to the right of the selected one. It is updated to the numerical value of the subtraction result obtained by subtracting the first subtraction value in the special stop symbol creation table (S155). If the random number value is not a negative number as a result of the operation (S156: No), the random value is calculated from the random value. The value is updated to the subtraction result obtained by subtracting the next subtraction value (S157). If the random value is not a negative number (S156: No), S156 to S157 are repeatedly executed.

  When the random number value becomes a negative number (S156: Yes), the symbol value at this time is set (S158). Next, as the symbol value, a value obtained by adding the left special stop symbol number to the symbol value is set (S159), and when the symbol value of the addition result is “10” or more (S160: Yes), the symbol value is calculated. A numerical value obtained by subtracting “10” is newly set (S161), and this symbol value is set as the right special stop symbol number (S162). Therefore, the right special stop symbol is determined at this point.

  Next, the middle symbols are determined in substantially the same manner through S163 to S173. First, in the selected right special stop symbol creation table, an offset value when the random number value becomes a negative number is set (S163), and based on the offset value from the special stop symbol creation address table TB10 during detachment, The special stop symbol creation table (1-16) during removal is selected (S164). Next, as the random number value, one numerical value extracted from the random numbers for generating special symbols for deviating (0 to 102) is set (S165).

  Next, the random number value is updated to the subtraction result value obtained by subtracting the first subtraction value included in the selected special out-of-shift special stop symbol creation table from the random number value (S166), and the random number value is obtained as a result of the calculation. Is not a negative number (S167: No), the random value is updated to the subtraction result obtained by subtracting the next subtraction value from the random value (S168), and if the random value is not a negative number (S167: No) , S167 to S168 are repeatedly executed. If the random number value becomes a negative number (S167: Yes), the symbol value at this time is set (S169).

  Next, as the symbol value, a value obtained by adding the left special stop symbol number to the symbol value is set (S170). When the symbol value of the addition result is “10” or more (S171: Yes), Then, a value obtained by subtracting “10” from the symbol value is newly set (S172), and this symbol value is set as the middle special stop symbol number (S173). Therefore, the middle special stop symbol is determined at this point. Thereafter, the special symbol stop offset value corresponding to the symbol value when the symbol value becomes a negative number is set from the special stop symbol creation table during detachment (S174), and this control is terminated and the process returns.

  Here, the symbol in the “off right special stop symbol creation table 9” selected when the offset value (value of the effect flag data) is “3” and the value of the state flag is “2” or “1”. Since the value and the symbol value in the “off right special stop symbol creation table 4” selected when the value of the state flag is “0” are both other than “0”, the left value determined in advance Since the right special symbol is determined to be shifted from the special symbol by the symbol value with respect to the special symbol, there cannot be a reach state.

  On the other hand, the symbol value in the “off-right special stop symbol creation table 10” selected when the offset value (the value of the effect flag data) is “5” and the value of the state flag is “2” or “1”. And the symbol value in the “off right special stop symbol creation table 6” selected when the value of the status flag is “0”, both are “0”, so the left special symbol previously determined On the other hand, since the right special symbol is determined to be the same symbol as the left special symbol, the reach state always occurs.

Next, the special effect update control will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. This control is executed following the special stop symbol creation control shown in FIG.
When this control is started, first, when the value of the effect counter is “0” (S181: Yes), the value of the effect mode flag is set to “0” and the effect mode flag is cleared (S184). ). However, when the value of the effect counter is not “0” (S181: No), the value of the effect counter is decremented by one (S182).

  As a result, even when the value of the effect counter becomes “0” (S183: Yes), the effect mode flag is similarly cleared (S184). By the way, as a result of decrementing the value of the effect counter, if the value of the effect counter is other than “0” (S183: No), the loop number L “4” in the mode determination table TB5 shown in FIG. 10 is set ( S185) When the first effect counter determination data does not match the value of the effect counter (S186: No), the loop number L is decremented by 1 (S189), and when the loop number L is “0”. (S190: Yes), return.

  However, when the loop number L is other than “0” (S190: No) and the next effect counter determination data does not match the value of the effect counter (S191: No), S189 to S191 are repeatedly executed. . By the way, when the effect counter determination data and the value of the effect counter match (S186: Yes or S191: Yes), it is determined whether or not the effect mode determination data and the effect mode flag match this time. If not (S187: No), S189 to S191 and S187 are executed repeatedly.

  If the effect counter determination data matches the value of the effect counter, and the effect mode determination data and the effect mode flag match (S187: Yes), the effect contents to be displayed at the next symbol change are advanced. Thus, the effect mode flag is incremented by 1 (S188), this control is terminated, and the process returns to the main routine. For example, when the effect counter value decremented by 1 is “1”, if the value of the effect mode flag is “1”, the effect mode flag “2” is advanced. "Last" can be produced.

  Also, for example, when the effect counter value is “1” and the effect mode flag value is “6”, the value of the effect mode flag is advanced to “7”, so that “ “Continuous Character Appearance Advance / Last” can be produced.

  Next, winning state command 1 reception control executed by the command transmission / reception means 91 of the symbol control means 90B will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. In this case, by receiving any of the four types (B201 [H] to B204 [H]) of winning state commands 1 transmitted from the main control means 50B, the winning state command 1 reception control is started. .

  When this control is started, first, only the lower-order event data (XX [H]) consisting of 1 byte of the winning command 1 (B2XX [H]) received by the command transmission / reception means 91 is set as a set value. It is set (S201). Next, the set value is set in the continuous notice counter (S202). Next, one set value is decremented (S203), a set value is set as the value of the continuous notice flag (S204), this control is terminated, and the process returns to the main routine.

  In this case, the event data “01 [H]” of B201 [H] of the winning command 1 is decremented by one, so the value of the continuous notice flag is “0”. Similarly, the event of B202 [H] of the winning command 1 is performed. The value of the continuous notice flag is “1” based on the data “02 [H]”, and the value of the continuous notice flag is “2” based on the event data “03 [[H]]” of B203 [H] of the winning command 1. ”, The value of the continuous notice flag is“ 3 ”based on the event data“ 04 [H] ”of B204 [H] of the winning command 1. Therefore, the continuous notice flag value in this case is set to any one of “0-3”.

  On the other hand, receiving any one of the four types (B301 [H] to B304 [H]) of winning status commands 2 transmitted from the main control means 50B starts the winning status command 2 reception control shown in FIG. Is done. When this control is started, first, only the low-order event data (XX [H]) consisting of 1 byte of the winning command 2 (B3XX [H]) received by the command transmission / reception means 91 is set as a set value. It is set (S211). Next, the set value is set in the continuous notice counter (S212). Next, the set value is incremented by 3 (S213), the set value is set as the value of the continuous notice flag (S214), this control is terminated, and the process returns to the main routine.

  In this case, the event data “01 [H]” of B301 [H] of the winning command 2 is incremented by three, so the value of the continuous notice flag is “4”. Similarly, the event of B302 [H] of the winning command 2 is performed. The value of the continuous notice flag is “5” based on the data “02 [H]”, and the value of the continuous notice flag is “6” based on the event data “03 [H]” of B303 [H] of the winning command 2. Based on the event data “04 [H]” of B304 [[H]] of the winning command 2, the value of the continuous notice flag becomes “7”. Therefore, the value of the continuous notice flag for removal is set to any one of “4 to 7”.

Next, the notice effect selection control executed by the notice effect selection control means 98 will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. However, this notice effect selection control is executed when a variation pattern command transmitted at the start of variation is received from the main control means 50B.
When this control is started, first, based on the value of the continuous notice counter created by calculation in FIG. 30 or FIG. 31, when the value of this continuous notice counter is “0” (S221: Yes), The notice effect data selection table 1TB13 (for normal use) is selected (S225).

  Next, based on the selected notice effect data selection table 1 and one numerical value extracted from the notice selection random number values (0 to 106), any effect notice data of “0 to 3” is selected. Is set (S228), the control is terminated, and the process returns to the main routine. For example, when the change pattern number is “1” and the notice effect data selection table 1 is selected and the notice selection random number value is “100”, the first value from the notice selection random number “100” is the first. As a result of the subtraction of the first subtraction value “104”, the notice selection random number value becomes a negative number, and therefore the notice effect data “0” when it becomes a negative number is set.

  For example, when the change pattern number is “1” and the notice effect data selection table 1 is selected, and the notice selection random number is “72”, the notice selection random number “72” is used. As a result of the first subtraction value “62” being subtracted and the second subtraction value 15 being subtracted, the notice selection random number value becomes a negative number, so the notice effect data “1” when it becomes a negative number is obtained. Is set.

  By the way, when the value of the continuous notice counter is other than “0” (S221: No), since the number of held balls is reduced by one due to the current symbol fluctuation, the value of the continuous notice counter is decremented by one (S222). ). Here, the random number value for selection of notice is “106” at the maximum, and when all these four subtraction values (first subtraction value to fourth subtraction value) are added, the total subtraction value becomes “107”. The random number value for selection is always a negative number when any one of the first subtraction value to the fourth subtraction value is subtracted.

  Next, a determination value is set based on the value of the continuous notice flag and the value of the continuous notice counter from the continuous notice time determination table TB12 shown in FIG. 20 (S223). Next, the determination value is determined (S224). If the determination value is “0” (S224), the notice effect data selection table 1TB13 is selected as shown in FIG. 23 (S225). ), Any production notice data of “0-3” is set (S228).

  Here, as shown in FIG. 24, when the effect notice data is “0”, no character appears during the change of the symbol. However, when the production announcement data is “1”, “2”, and “3”, the production in which the characters A, B, and C appear during the change of the design is performed. These characters A to C are different from each other. Next, when the determination value is “1” (S224), the notice effect data selection table 2TB14 is selected (S226), and any effect notice data of “0 to 3” is set (S228).

  By the way, when the determination value is “2” (S224), the process returns without changing the contents of the effect. That is, as shown in FIG. 23, since the same notice effect data selected at the previous change is selected, the same character as the character that appeared at the last change appears. Next, when the determination value is “3” (S224), the notice effect data is incremented by one (S227), and when the value of the notice effect data is “4” (S229: Yes). Then, “1” is set as the value of the notice effect data (S230).

  That is, while the determination value is “2” and the effect is performed by the character B in the previous symbol variation, the determination value is changed to “3” in the current symbol variation, so the character C Production is made. In addition, while the determination value is “3” and the effect is performed by the character C in the previous symbol variation, the determination value is changed to “1” in the current symbol variation, so that the character A Production is made.

  Here, in the notice effect data selection table 1, since the first subtraction value is set to a relatively large value and the second subtraction value is set to the next largest value, “0” is set as the notice effect data. It becomes easy to set, and the character often does not appear. On the other hand, in the notice effect data selection table 2, the first subtraction value is “0”, and the second subtraction value to the fourth subtraction value are set to substantially the same numerical values. ”Is easily set, and the appearance rate of any of the characters A to C is high from the next symbol variation.

  In this way, when the winning state command 2 that is not advantageous to the player is received from the main control means 50B, and in the case of B303 [H], the value of the continuous effect flag is “6”. As shown in the figure, as the value of the continuous notice counter advances from “2” → “1” → “0”, the determination value is set to “1” → “1” → “1”, so that the character appears. However, it is in a state where it is not known which character appears.

  In the case of B304 [H], since the value of the continuous performance flag is “7”, the determination is made as the value of the continuous notice counter advances from “3” → “2” → “1” → “0”. Since the value is set from “1” → “1” → “2” → “3”, when the character appears, the same character as the previous character appears at the determination value “2”. The effect is such that when “3”, a character different from the previous time appears.

  However, when the winning state command 1 advantageous to the player is received from the main control means 50B, and in the case of B204 [H], since the value of the continuous effect flag is “3”, the continuous notice counter As the value advances from “3” → “2” → “1” → “0”, the determination value is set to “1” → “2” → “2” → “2”, so when the character appears The same character appears as the first appearing character over a plurality of symbol variations.

  Thus, in the case of the winning state command 2 which is not advantageous to the player, even if the character does not appear or when it appears only once, it is an effect state in which it does not know which character appears. On the other hand, in the case of the winning state command 1 advantageous to the player, the character appears continuously, and the same character appears repeatedly every time the symbol changes. Can be provided, and the player's expectation for the jackpot can be increased.
