Claims

A gaming machine that performs a game using a predetermined game medium,
During the game, a plurality of types of effect devices used for audio-visual effects shown to the player,
A payout device for paying out the game medium to a player under predetermined conditions;
A main control device for integrated control of the progress of the game;
An effect control device that controls the plurality of types of effect devices according to the gaming state of the game, based on a command output from the main control device;
The main control device and the production control device are connected, and has a unidirectional signal line for transmitting signals in a single direction from the main control device to the production control device,
The main controller is
A determination unit for determining success or failure of a predetermined condition related to payout of the game medium during the game ;
Based on the game state including pre SL determination result, and a command output unit for outputting the main board command instructing effect contents to be executed by the presentation device to the effect control device,
The production control device
An input unit for inputting the main board command from the main controller ;
Of the plurality of processes for controlling the effects in each of the effect devices, including what does not involve the output of a signal to the effect device, which process the effect control device should execute in what manner An effect data storage unit for storing a plurality of types of effect data stored in the order in which a function for instructing the function and information necessary for processing the function is stored, and a plurality of types of effect data;
According to the gaming state specified based on the main board command, select any one of the effect data, according to the function stored in the selected effect data and the parameters set for the function, and directing a scheduler unit that controls the respective presentation equipment,
Effect control execution for selecting any of the effect content setting data according to the gaming state specified based on the main board command, and controlling the effect of each effect device according to the selected effect content setting data And
An operation information storage unit for storing a correspondence relationship between the schedule data and the output scheduler unit for each of a plurality of events prepared in advance to represent a gaming state in the gaming machine;
An event management unit that determines on / off of each event based on the main board command, and determines activation / stop of each output scheduler unit according to the correspondence based on the determination result;
An event management information storage unit that stores ON / OFF of each of the plurality of events and a determination result of start / stop of the output scheduler unit as management information;
The production scheduler unit
When a predetermined main board command is input from the main controller, one of the effect data is selected by lottery,
Executing the control based on the selected effect data;
The effect content setting data includes a function for instructing a predetermined process to be executed among a plurality of processes required for performing the effect control, and a sequence for executing a parameter defining information necessary for the process of the function. Have multiple data structures stored in
The function is not constrained by the order of the functions stored in the effect content setting data, and instructs the execution of the function stored at an address different from the series of functions stored in the order to be executed. Can include call functions,
The effect control execution unit sequentially reads the functions included in the effect content setting data, executes the process specified by the read function and parameters set for the function, and executes the call function Sometimes, after sequentially executing the functions stored at the address specified by the call function parameters, the processing after the call function is continued,
The output scheduler unit is a gaming machine that starts and stops based on management information in the event management information storage unit.
