  In this case, the virtual camera can be controlled based on the information such as the position, rotation angle or speed of the object obtained by the movement processing unit 213. Alternatively, control may be performed to rotate the virtual camera at a predetermined rotation angle or to move the virtual camera along a predetermined movement path. Further, in this case, the virtual camera is controlled based on virtual camera data for specifying the position (moving path) or rotation angle of the virtual camera.

  When there are a plurality of virtual cameras (viewpoints), the above control process is performed for each virtual camera.

Manage).

  The drawing unit 220 performs drawing processing based on the results of various processing (game processing) performed by the processing unit 200, thereby generating an image and outputting the image to the display unit (display) 290. The image generated by the drawing unit 220 may be a so-called two-dimensional image or a so-called three-dimensional image. In particular, the drawing unit 220 generates an image that can be viewed from the virtual camera in the object space and displayed on the screen.

  Here, in the case of generating a two-dimensional image, the drawing unit 220 performs drawing in order from the objects with the set low priority, and when the objects overlap, drawing is performed by overwriting the object with high priority. .

  In addition, when generating a three-dimensional image, the drawing unit 220 of the present embodiment first calculates vertex data of each vertex of the object (model) (position coordinates of the vertex, texture coordinates, color data, normal vector or α value) Object data (model data) including (e.g.) is input, and vertex processing is performed based on vertex data included in the input object data. In addition, when performing vertex processing, vertex generation processing (tessellation, curved surface division, polygon division) for redividing a polygon may be performed as necessary.

  Also, in vertex processing, geometry processing such as vertex movement processing, coordinate conversion (world coordinate conversion, camera coordinate conversion), clipping processing, or perspective conversion is performed, and an object is configured based on the processing result. Modify (update, adjust) the given vertex data for the vertex group. Then, rasterization (scan conversion) is performed based on the vertex data after the vertex processing, and the faces of the polygon (primitive) are associated with the pixels. Then, following rasterization, pixel processing (fragment processing) is performed to draw pixels that constitute an image (fragments that constitute a display screen) (including light source processing and the like).

  In pixel processing, various processing such as texture readout (texture mapping), color data setting / modification, semitransparent composition, anti-aliasing, etc. are performed to determine the final drawing color of the pixels constituting the image, and perspective conversion is performed. The drawing color of the object is output (drawn) to the image buffer 272 (frame buffer, buffer capable of storing image information in pixel units. VRAM, rendering target). That is, in the pixel processing, per-pixel processing is performed in which image information (color, normal, luminance, α value, etc.) is set or changed in pixel units.

  This generates an image viewed from a virtual camera (given viewpoint) set in the object space. In addition, when multiple virtual cameras (viewpoints) exist, an image can be generated so that an image viewed from each virtual camera can be displayed on one screen as a divided image.

  Note that the vertex processing and pixel processing performed by the drawing unit 220 are performed by hardware that enables programmatic drawing processing of polygons (primitives) by a shader program described in a shading language, that is, so-called programmable shaders (vertex shaders and pixel shaders) It may be realized. With programmable shaders, it is possible to program vertex-based processing and pixel-based processing with a high degree of freedom in the contents of drawing processing, and the expressiveness can be significantly improved compared to fixed drawing processing by hardware .

  Then, when drawing an object, the drawing unit 220 performs geometry processing, texture mapping, hidden surface removal processing, α blending, and the like.

  In geometry processing, processing such as coordinate conversion, clipping processing, perspective projection conversion, or light source calculation is performed on an object. Then, object data (position coordinates of vertex of object, texture coordinates, color data (luminance data), normal vector, α value, etc.) after geometry processing (after perspective projection conversion) is stored in the storage unit 270.

In the texture mapping, processing is performed to map the texture (texel value) stored in the texture storage unit of the storage unit 270 to an object. Specifically, a texture (a surface property such as color (RGB) or α value) is read from the texture storage unit of the storage unit 270 using texture coordinates or the like set (assigned) to the vertex of the object, and a two-dimensional image Map the texture that is to the object. In this case, processing for associating pixels with texels, bilinear interpolation as texels interpolation, etc. are performed.

  In the present embodiment, a process of mapping a given texture may be performed when drawing an object. In this case, the color distribution (texel pattern) of the texture to be mapped can be changed dynamically.

  Also, in this case, textures with different color distributions (pixel patterns) may be generated dynamically, or textures with different color distributions may be prepared in advance to dynamically switch the textures to be used. May be Also, the color distribution of the texture may be changed on an object-by-object basis.

  In the hidden surface removal processing, hidden surface removal processing is performed by a Z buffer method (depth comparison method, Z test) using a Z buffer (depth buffer) in which the Z value (depth information) of a drawing pixel is stored. That is, when drawing a drawing pixel corresponding to a primitive of an object, the Z value stored in the Z buffer is referred to, and the Z value of the referred Z buffer and the Z value of the drawing pixel of the primitive are If the Z value at the drawing pixel is the Z value (for example, a small Z value) on the near side as viewed from the virtual camera, the drawing process of the drawing pixel is performed and the Z value of the Z buffer is newly added. Update to the correct Z value.

  In alpha blending (alpha combining), the drawing unit 220 performs semitransparent blending processing (usually alpha blending, addition alpha blending, or subtraction alpha blending, etc.) based on the alpha value (A value). The α value is information that can be stored in association with each pixel (texel, dot), and is, for example, information of plus alpha other than color information. The α value can be used as mask information, translucency (equivalent to transparency and opacity), bump information, and the like.

  In particular, the drawing unit 220 in the present embodiment may generate an image to be displayed in the display area corresponding to the touch detection area. The image displayed in the display area may be, for example, an image including an object.

  The sound processing unit 230 performs sound processing based on the results of various processes performed by the processing unit 200, generates game sound such as BGM, sound effects, or voice, and outputs the game sound to the sound output unit 292.

  The terminal device 20 according to the present embodiment may be a system dedicated to a single player mode in which only one player can play, or may be a system including a multiplayer mode in which a plurality of players can play.

  In addition, when a plurality of players play, a game image or a game sound to be provided to the plurality of players may be generated using one terminal device 20, a network (transmission line, communication line), etc. It may be generated by distributed processing using a plurality of terminal devices 20 or server devices 10 connected in

  In particular, in the present embodiment, since it is possible to request the strategic eye of the player, including at which timing and from which base (in other words, whether or not to dispatch), strategic points of the player are required. It is possible to make the player advance the game by making it possible for the player to determine the changing advantageous situation.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, in the battle game in which the bases are attacked with each other, it is possible to provide a battle game in which players need a high strategic eye, so that the interest of the game can be improved. It has become.

  In the present embodiment, the "plural players" includes a computer, and the player characters also include non-player characters.

  Also, as described above, the “base” may be an area such as a base or a position (including a building object such as a castle) formed in the game space, or a dynamic such as a battleship or a mother ship It may be an object.

  In particular, the plurality of bases may be different types such as a mother ship, a warship, or a main circle, a castle, a fortress, etc., or may be the same type, move or change in the game space during the game. It may be fixed or fixed. However, in the following description, it will be described using a plurality of bases composed of a mother ship and two carrier ships.

[4.2] Match Game Next, a match game according to the present embodiment will be described.

  In the battle game of this embodiment, a player character is placed (that is, inserted) in the game space for each player, and a plurality of bases (for example, 1) belonging to other players having predetermined parameters (for example, energy parameters) In a game in which each player is attacked (for example, when the energy parameter becomes “0”, the outcome is determined)). is there.

  In particular, in the battle game of the present embodiment, a plurality of (for example, five) players that can be selected during the battle game from among player characters possessed by the player based on the player's operation before the start of the battle game. A character (that is, designated player character candidate) is set as a deck.

  Then, in the competition game of this embodiment, during the competition game, one or more designated player characters are designated from the designated player character candidates set in the deck by the player, and the designated player characters thus designated are designated as the game space. While attacking each other's bases.

  In particular, in the battle game of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4A described above, bases such as a mother ship and a warship are arranged in the game space for each player at the start of the battle game, and each base The base area is set around the base in association with the above.

  Further, in the battle game of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4B described above, the player character of each player is arranged at a predetermined position in the base area of each player, and each player is placed in the game space The player character of is inserted, and the inserted player character attacks the base of the other party.

Then, in the battle game of this embodiment, the characters of the respective players are input until the game is decided.

  On the other hand, in the battle game of the present embodiment, energy parameters as predetermined parameters are respectively set to each base, and the energy parameter of the base belonging to the other player is attacked by the attack of the player character. When it becomes "), the said base is made to disappear.

  Then, in the battle game of this embodiment, when the energy parameters of all bases of the opponent become the limit value (specifically, “0”), or the main bases among a plurality of bases of the opponent When the energy parameter of (for example, a mother ship) becomes (specifically "0"), the outcome is decided.

  On the other hand, the battle game of this embodiment is a parameter managed on a player-by-player basis, and the parameter for action which is consumed each time a player character is inserted is managed while increasing with the lapse of time of the game. .

  For this reason, in the battle game of this embodiment, since the type and timing of insertion of the designated player character is important, a highly strategic eye by the player is required, and the interest of the game can be improved. ing.

[4.3] Base Setting Process Next, a base setting process for setting a base and a base area in the present embodiment will be described using FIGS. 5 to 7. 5-7 is a figure for demonstrating the base setting process which sets the base and base area in this embodiment.

As described above, the base management unit 214 performs, prior to the start of the match game and for each player, the pre-processing of the placement processing.
(A) For example, processing of arranging a plurality of bases such as one mother ship and two cooperative ships arranged on both sides in the game space and setting each base (hereinafter, “base allocation processing”),
(B) For example, processing (hereinafter, also referred to as “dispositionable area control processing”) of setting a base area (including a distributable area and a disallowed area described later) around the base such as the periphery of a mother ship and a cooperative Execute the site setting process to be executed.

(Base placement processing)
The base management unit 214 of this embodiment is a combination of a player's instruction, base type, base, and each base belonging to the same player, such as a mother ship and a battleship, a main circle and a two circle registered by the player before the start of the battle game. , Based on the type of game stage, the player's game level, and the registered formation information (information of formation formed by a predetermined formation or a card or item acquired by the player during the game) .

  For example, in the case of setting 1 main base 50 such as a mother ship and 2 sub-bases 51 such as a warship, when the base is arranged based on the type of the base, the base management unit 214 is shown in FIG. As shown in the left view of (A) (the view to the left of the page), the main base 50 is disposed slightly behind the center of the own position of the main base 50, and the enemy base is located relative to the arrangement position of the main base 50. Arrange sub bases 51 such as two carrier ships diagonally forward to the (hereinafter, also referred to as "reference formation").

Also, for example, similarly, in the case of setting one main base 50 such as a mother ship and two sub bases 51 such as a cooperative ship, base management is performed when arranging bases based on the game level of the player. When the player's game level is low, the section 214 is farther from the enemy base than the reference position (hereinafter also referred to as "reference position") as shown in the right diagram of FIG. 5A. The respective bases of the main base 50 and the sub base 51 are disposed at a position (hereinafter, also referred to as a “reverse position”).

  Furthermore, for example, similarly, in the case of setting one main base 50 such as a mother ship and two sub bases 51 such as a cooperative ship, in the case of arranging the bases based on predetermined formation information, As shown in FIG. 5B, the base management unit 214 arranges the main base 50 and the sub base 51 in a row in the attack direction according to the game stage (hereinafter also referred to as “horizontal formation”). (See the left figure in Fig. 5 (B)), place the main site 50 and the sub site 51 in a row vertically to the attack direction, or the main site 50 in a diagonal row to the attack direction And a sub base 51 (hereinafter, also referred to as “diagonal formation”) (see the right figure in FIG. 5B).

  FIG. 5 is a view showing an example of the game screen 70 in which the bases are arranged by a predetermined formation, and in an actual battle game, base areas are set in the bases.

(Placeable area control processing)
When the base management unit 214 sets a base, if the base moves as described later according to the attributes of each base and the designated player character for each base, the base management unit 214 responds to the movement or the corresponding player. Depending on the arrangement of the multiple bases in the game space (the arrangement based on the above formation information),
(A) Set a base area in a predetermined area centered on each base that has been arranged, or
(B) While setting the base area, set an area where the designated player character can be arranged (hereinafter referred to as “arrangeable area”) within the set base area.
Execute placeable control processing.

  In particular, the attribute of the base includes the type of the base, the attack power or defense power of the base, the characteristics or capabilities of the equipment or function, and the level set in association with the base, and the base management unit 214 The base area or the distributable area is set in accordance with the attributes of these bases.

  In addition, the attribute of the designated player character includes the type of the designated player character, the offensive power or defensive power of the character or the characteristics or abilities such as equipment (a single ability of equipment such as a weapon, the ability of the equipment and the characteristics of the designated player character Or a combination of abilities may be included), and a level set in association with the character, etc., and the base management unit 214 can be set as the base area or the position according to the attribute of these designated player characters. Set the area.

  Further, the base management unit 214 may set the base area or the allocable area according to the combination of the base attribute and the designated player character attribute.

  For example, in the case where the characteristic category of the input base is "water" and the characteristic category of the designated player character is also "water" (that is, when the characteristics match), the base management unit 214 is preset. The size of the existing base area is changed larger (eg, 1.25 times) than the reference value.

Also, for example, in the case where the base management unit 214 sets the locatable area of the designated player character separately from the base area where the locatable player character can set, with the size and the shape of the base area maintained, If the attribute of the designated player character is "water" (that is, if the attribute is the opposite attribute), the base management unit 214 determines that the size of the base area is half the size of the base area set in advance. The area may be set as the arrangeable area, and the other area may be set as the arrangement prohibited area.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, by performing placement possible control, for example, the player's attack is controlled to be advantageous by increasing the placement possible area, or the placement possible area is set. By reducing the size, the player's attack can be controlled to be disadvantageous.

  Therefore, during the game, the game can be advanced by providing the player with a bonus element or controlling the degree of difficulty, so that the player's interest in the game can be improved. It has become.

  On the other hand, when the base moves as described later, the base managing unit 214 according to the present embodiment responds to the movement, or according to the arrangement in the game space of a plurality of bases belonging to the corresponding player. A placeable control process may be executed to set a place where the designated player character can be placed in the area or the set base area.

In particular, the site management unit 214 of this embodiment
(1) Based on the arrangement (relative positional relationship) formed on the game space, each base belonging to the same player, such as one horizontal row, one diagonal row or one vertical row, etc.
(2) According to the distance to the base belonging to another player,
(3) According to the distance on the game space with other bases belonging to the same player,
(4) Depending on the movement distance, movement speed or movement direction during movement of the base or movement of another base belonging to the same player, the arrangement enable control process may be executed.

  For example, when the designated player character can be arranged in the entire base area, the base management unit 214 sets bases having the same size and shape for each base when the bases belonging to the same player are arranged in a horizontal row. Set the area.

  Further, when the designated player character can be arranged in the entire base area, the base management unit 214 combines the base areas of the bases when the bases belonging to the same player are arranged in a single row. Set the base area of.

  Furthermore, in the case where the designated player character can be arranged in the entire base area, the base management unit 214 sets the central base far from the enemy base and the other bases are arranged at equal distances from the enemy base. Set the base area of another base whose size is larger than that of the base of.

  In particular, when the designated player character can be arranged in the whole of the base area 52, the base management unit 214 of the present embodiment performs, for example, each base 50 or 51 as the arrangeable area control processing of (A). As shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, according to the attribute of the designated player character, the base area 52 in which the size (large or small), the shape (including the combination with another base) or both of them is changed Set

Further, the base management unit 214, in the base area 52, forms an area prohibited to be placed in the base area 52 (hereinafter referred to as "placement prohibited area") 53 or an available area 54 as the process for controlling the available area (B). In this case, for example, as shown in FIGS. 6 (C) and 6 (D), the placement prohibited area 53 or the possible placement area 54 according to the attribute of each of the bases 50, 51 or the designated player character to be placed.
Set

  Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, in the case of a formation in which each base is disposed within a certain distance, the base management unit 214 combines the base area or the distributable area of each base. You may

  7 (A) and 7 (B) show the case of the possible arrangement area control processing of (2A) described above, and FIG. 7 (A) shows the case where a base area is set for each base. 7B shows an example in the case where the base areas are merged due to the bases being disposed within a certain distance.

In addition, although each base area of the present embodiment is formed around the position of each base in the game space, it may be formed in another area of the game space if it is associated with each base. In order to display the game by two screens, it may be formed in different screens.
[4.4] Arrangement Process Next, the arrangement process for arranging in the base area of the designated player character in the present embodiment will be described using FIG. FIG. 8 is a view for explaining arrangement processing for arranging in the base area of the designated player character in the present embodiment.

(Basic placement process)
When the competitive game is started, the game processing unit 215 of the present embodiment causes the player to specify (A1) a player character that can be designated from among the designated player character candidates registered in the deck.
(A2) processing for selecting a designated player character designated as a base (hereinafter referred to as an “input base”) from among a mother ship and a cooperative ship, and
(A3) processing for specifying an arrangement position where the specified player character is arranged in the base area corresponding to the insertion base;
Run.

  For example, while interlocking with the display control unit 212, the game processing unit 215 executes a display prompting the designation of the player character, a display prompting the selection of the insertion base, and a display prompting the designation of the arrangement position.

Then, when the game processing unit 215 receives the designation of the designated player character, the selection of the base, and the designation of the arrangement position by the operation detection processing unit 211, as shown in FIG.
(A1) Move the designated player character 60 from the predetermined position of the deck (second display area 72) to the insertion base (main base 50) or in the vicinity thereof
(A2) The designated player character 60 is moved to the placement position 62 in the designated base area 52 from the insertion base (main base 50) or the vicinity thereof,
Entry of the designated player character 60 into the game space, that is, the placement process is completed.

  At this time, as shown in FIG. 8, the display control unit 212 displays an effect image for producing movement and arrangement of the designated player character as the game screen 70 on the display 12.

  When the designated player character is placed at the placement position, the movement processing unit 213 determines a route from the placement position to the enemy base in the game space based on the characteristics of the designated player character, and the determined route The movement control to move the designated player character to the enemy base is executed along.

  Then, the game processing unit 215 causes the designated player character to attack the enemy base while moving along the moving route, and, when the designated player character reaches the enemy base, execute an attack on the enemy base from that position.

(Modification 1 of arrangement processing: direct specification of arrangement position)
In the present embodiment, when the game processing unit 215 designates the arrangement position on the base area based on the player's operation without specifying the insertion base, the base area to which the arrangement position is specified belongs. The specified base may be specified and selected as the input base.

Specifically, when the competitive game is started, the game processing unit 215 causes the player to specify (B1) a player character that can be designated from among the designated player character candidates registered in the deck.
(B2) a process of designating an arrangement position in a specific base area where the designated player character designated is arranged;
Run.

Then, when the game processing unit 215 receives the designation of the designated player character and the designation of the arrangement position by the operation detection processing unit 211,
(B1) determine the base to which the base area of the specified arrangement position belongs as the input base;
(B2) Move the designated player character from the predetermined position of the deck to the insertion base or in the vicinity thereof, and
(B3) The designated player character is moved to an arrangement position in the designated base area from the insertion base or the vicinity thereof,
Entry of the designated player character into the game space, that is, the placement process is completed.

  At this time, the display control unit 212 displays an effect image for producing the movement and the arrangement of the designated player character as the game screen 70 on the display 12 as described above.

  When the designated player character is placed at the placement position, the movement processing unit 213 determines a route from the placement position to the enemy base in the game space based on the characteristics of the designated player character, and the determined route The movement control to move the designated player character to the enemy base is executed along.

  Then, the game processing unit 215 causes the designated player character to attack the enemy base while moving along the moving route, and, when the designated player character reaches the enemy base, execute an attack on the enemy base from that position.

  In addition, in the processing of (b1), the game processing unit 215 may determine a base different from the base to which the base area of the designated arrangement position belongs as the insertion base when determining the insertion base.

  For example, in the case where there are main bases in a plurality of bases such as a mother ship and a warship carrier, an aircraft carrier and an escort ship, or a main circle, a two circle and a three circle, a different base from the main locations such as a small ship When an arrangement position is designated in the base area set in, the game processing unit 215 may determine a main base such as a mother ship or an aircraft carrier as an insertion base.

That is, in the case where the arrangement position in the base area is directly specified without determining the input base according to the operation of the player, the directly specified arrangement position is a base different from the main base. The game processing unit 215
(B1x) Determine the main base as the input base,
(B2x) move the designated player character from the predetermined position of the deck to the insertion base or in the vicinity thereof, and
(B3x) move the designated player character to the placement position in the base area of the other base designated from the insertion base or the vicinity thereof,
Entry of the designated player character into the game space, that is, placement processing may be completed.

(Modification 2 of placement processing: Automatic placement based on selection of input base)
In the present embodiment, when the insertion base is designated based on the player's operation, the game processing unit 215 automatically specifies the position in the arbitrary base area of the insertion base, and sets the position to the specified position. The designated player character may be arranged.

Specifically, when the competitive game is started, the game processing unit 215 causes the player to specify a player character that can be designated from among the designated player character candidates registered in the (C1) deck. as well as,
(C2) a process of selecting a designated designated player character from among a mother ship and a cooperative ship as an insertion base to which the player character is inserted;
Run.

When the game processing unit 215 receives the designation of the designated player character, the selection of the base, and the designation of the arrangement position by the operation detection processing unit 211,
(C1) Set an arbitrary position in the base area associated with the selected base as an arrangement position,
(C2) The designated player character is moved from the predetermined position of the deck to the insertion base or in the vicinity thereof, and
(C3) The designated player character is moved to an arrangement position in the base area set from the insertion base or the vicinity thereof,
Entry of the designated player character into the game space, that is, the placement process is completed.

  At this time, the display control unit 212 displays an effect image for producing the movement and the arrangement of the designated player character as the game screen 70 on the display 12 as described above.

  When the designated player character is placed at the placement position, the movement processing unit 213 determines a route from the placement position to the enemy base in the game space based on the characteristics of the designated player character, and the determined route The movement control to move the designated player character to the enemy base is executed along.

  Then, the game processing unit 215 causes the designated player character to attack the enemy base while moving along the moving route, and, when the designated player character reaches the enemy base, execute an attack on the enemy base from that position.

  In addition, the game processing unit 215 determines, in the process (c1), as an arbitrary arrangement position in the base area set in association with the selected insertion base, the same position in the base area correlated with the insertion base. The position in the overlapping area overlapping with the other base belonging to the player, the position closest to the enemy base, the position according to the base attribute and the attribute of the designated player character (the position where the attack of the designated player character is optimum Place in).

In particular, in the case where the formation based on the arrangement of a plurality of bases belonging to the same player described later can be set by the player and the position in the overlapping area is automatically set as the arrangement position, the player's will It is also possible to set an overlapping area, in which case various variations in the game can be provided.

  Further, when the game processing unit 215 designates a plurality of designated player characters, and executes the selection of the insertion base and the designation of the arrangement position within the base range, the designation with the plurality of designated designated player characters is specified. Designate the placement position where the player character is placed.

[4.5] Movement Control Processing of Base Next, the movement control processing of the base in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 to 11 are diagrams for explaining the movement control processing of the base in this embodiment, and the movement targets displayed on the screen when the movement control processing of the base in this embodiment is executed. It is a figure for demonstrating the game space containing a base.

(Basic principle)
The base management unit 214 of the present embodiment moves the base within the game space of each base according to the game situation such as the elapsed time or the status of parameters related to the win / loss determination or the player's operation during the competitive game. Control.

  Specifically, the base management unit 214 simultaneously controls movement of all bases. In particular, when one base among a plurality of bases belonging to the same player is moved as a first base, the base management unit 214 makes the first base different from the first base belonging to at least the same player as the first base. Follow the movement of the base to move.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, in the case where three bases of one mother ship (main base 50) and two ministerial ships (sub base 51) are arranged, within the mother ship game space In the case where movement of L is performed (moving distance L), as shown in FIG. 9 (B), the base management unit 214 causes each carrier to follow the mother ship at the same moving speed and at the same moving distance L. Move.

  Note that the base management unit 214 may move only one base among a plurality of bases belonging to the same player as shown in FIG. 10A, as shown in FIG. 10B. The order of the enemy direction may be changed and moved, or the enemy direction may be moved in the opposite direction.

  On the other hand, when the base management unit 214 moves a base, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the base area corresponding to the base to be moved (a base area having a allocable area and a layout prohibited area). Control movement in the game space. In particular, the base management unit 214 makes the base area follow the base

  When making the base area follow the base, the base management unit 214 may move while maintaining the size and shape of the base area, or reduce the size of the base area when moving or It may be deformed into an elliptical shape having a long axis along the direction.

(Movement ability value)
The base management unit 214 manages, using the player information storage unit 273 for each player and for each base, a movement capacity value indicating a capacity related to movement of each base, and based on the movement capacity value, each base You may control the movement of

Specifically, the base management unit 214 uses, as the movement ability value, a movement distance in which the user can move in the game space during the match game, and a movement speed indicating the speed at the time of movement (for example, movement distance for each frame) Or movement distance per second), level of the base (hereinafter, also referred to as “base level”), strength value of the base which is consumed at the time of movement and indicates that movement is not possible without the value
Also referred to as “base energy”. Control movement of each base based on).

  In particular, the base management unit 214 sets the base according to the type of base such as a mother ship or a warship, or according to the game situation such as the level of the player, the number of dispatches of the designated player or the value of the energy parameter of each base. Depending on the level set in and the pre-set abilities (including the ability added during the game and the ability added by acquiring items), or based on these two or more pieces of information, The movement ability value of each base is determined, and the determined movement ability value is stored in the player information storage unit 273.

  Then, at the time of movement control of each base, the base management unit 214 reads out the movement capacity value of the corresponding base from the player information storage unit 273, and based on the read movement capacity value, the movement speed when moving the corresponding base. , Moving direction and moving distance are controlled.

  For example, the base management unit 214 determines the mobile ability of each base to be a higher mobile ability value, for example, as the level set for the base and the capability of the equipped item are higher, than for a subsidiary base such as a warship. The main base such as a mother ship is determined as the movement ability value.

  In addition, the base management unit 214 may manage the movement capacity value of each base according to a plurality of capacity values such as quickness, movement speed, and movement distance capacity, or may manage it as a representative movement capacity value. You may manage individual abilities, such as quickness, movement speed, and movement distance ability, which are determined by the movement ability.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 11A, the base management unit 214 causes the player information storage unit 273 to set the movement capability value (eg, level, quickness, etc.) of each base for each player, for each base, and for each capability. The movement speed, movement distance ability, etc.) may be managed, or, as shown in FIG. 11B, in the player information storage unit 273, one movement ability value is managed for each player and each base. It is also good.

  In particular, when the base management unit 214 manages one movement capability value for each player and each base, the movement amount capability value is associated with the movement capability value in the game data storage unit 274. Based on table data in which each ability value is determined, individual abilities such as quickness, moving speed, and moving distance ability are managed.

  In addition, since the movement capacity value is different for each base, even when moving in accordance with the movement of another base, each base is controlled for movement based on the movement capacity value set for each base. Be done.

  Therefore, for example, when the movement ability value is set for each base, the movement amount is "5" according to the movement ability value of the mother ship, and the movement amount is "4" according to the movement ability value of the first cooperative ship. In the case of “1”, the base management unit 214 moves the first cooperative ship following the movement of the mother ship, but moves the movement amount “5” for the mother ship while moving the movement amount for the first cooperative ship. Control movement to "4".

(Movement control based on Forment information)
When the base management unit 214 moves one base instead of the movement control of the following movement based on the other base based on the current position and movement capacity of each base, the base to which the movement target belongs belongs. The other base belonging to the same player as the base to be moved may be moved in conjunction with one another based on the Forment information stored in association with the player.

In this case, the player information storage unit 273 stores, as formation information, foration information indicating relative positions in the game space at a plurality of bases belonging to the same player. .

  In addition, when one piece of formation information is set from among the formation information stored in advance by the player's instruction or the like before the start of the battle game, the base management unit 214 sets each piece of formation information based on the set formation information. Place bases in the game space.

  Then, when the base management unit 214 moves one base during the competition game, based on the set formation information, another base belonging to the same player different from the base to be moved is the target to be moved. Move while maintaining the relative position on the game space with the base.

(Movement of virtual camera viewpoint during movement control processing)
The base management unit 214 may move the viewpoint of the virtual camera when imaging the game space as the base moves in conjunction with the virtual camera control unit 216. In particular, even if all the bases are moving targets as described above, the viewpoint movement of the virtual camera may be executed even if only one base is a moving target.

  In this case, the virtual camera control unit 216 moves the viewpoint of the virtual camera in the same direction and distance as the movement direction and the movement distance in which the base moves. Therefore, in the game space displayed on the screen of the terminal device 20, the game is scrolled in the direction opposite to the moving direction.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 12A, when the bases 50 and 51 to be moved are moved to the upper side of the screen by the movement control processing of the base management unit 214, the virtual camera control unit 216 controls the game of the virtual camera. The viewpoint in space is also moved in the same direction as the upper part of the screen. It is assumed that the designated player character 60 and the enemy character 63 in FIG. 12A have not moved.

  As a result, as shown in FIG. 12 (B), the screen of the terminal device 20 scrolls downward, and the screen hides above the screen before moving the bases 50 and 51 to be moved. The area (including the enemy character 63) is displayed together with the movement of the bases 50 and 51 to be moved. Then, the display area displayed at the lower side of the screen before the movement of the movement target bases 50 and 51 is hidden.

[4.6] Consumption of Behavioral Parameters Next, consumption of behavioral parameters in the present embodiment will be described.

  The parameter control unit 217 manages a parameter for action (that is, an action parameter) which is a parameter assigned to each player and is consumed when the designated player character is inserted.

  Specifically, the parameter control unit 217 according to the present embodiment is set in advance each time the designated player character is inserted while recovering the value of the parameter for action according to the elapsed time during the execution of the battle game. The constant value or the predetermined value is consumed (subtracted) from the value of the action parameter.

In particular, the parameter control unit 217
(1) For example, in a predetermined player, it is determined whether or not the value of the parameter for action at the time of being inserted into the game space of the designated player character is equal to or more than the consumption amount of the designated player character to be inserted.
(2) If the amount of consumption of the player character to be inserted is equal to or more, the player character to be inserted is inserted,
(3) If it is smaller than the consumption amount of the player character to be inserted, the insertion of the player character to be inserted is stopped,
(4) Control the value of the action parameter according to the insertion or the cancellation of the insertion.

  The parameter control unit 217 is predetermined when designating at least one player character from among the designated player character candidates, or designating designating the designated designated player character in the base area. The constant value or the predetermined value is consumed (subtracted) from the value of the action parameter.

  Note that the parameter control unit 217 may subtract a certain amount of consumption from the value of the action parameter regardless of the type of the designated player character, or the arrangement position of the designated player character, the attribute of the designated player character, The consumption amount of the parameter for action may be changed according to at least one or more pieces of information of the base to which the base area where the designated player character is placed belongs.

  For example, the parameter control unit 217 consumes the consumption amount of the designated player character having an attribute with high attack power and defensive strength higher than that of the other designated player characters.

  Also, the parameter control unit 217 consumes from the value of the action parameter according to the arrangement in which the designated player character is arranged in the base area, such as increasing the amount of consumption as the arrangement position becomes closer to the base of the enemy player. The amount of consumption to be subtracted may be varied.

  Furthermore, the parameter control unit 217 consumes (subtracts) from the value of the action parameter from the other sub base when the designated player character is inserted from the main base belonging to the same player such as a mother ship or a main circle. The amount of consumption to be consumed (subtracted) from the value of the action parameter may be changed according to the attribute of the base, such as increasing the amount.

  In particular, the parameter control unit 217 is table data stored in the game data storage unit 274, and the consumption amount of action parameters according to the attribute of the designated player character, the distance between the arrangement position and the enemy base, or the attribute of the base The table data in which is defined is read out, and the consumption is determined according to the table data and the attribute of the designated player character, the distance between the arrangement position and the enemy base, or the attribute of the base.

  On the other hand, when the game processing unit 215 designates a plurality of designated player characters and executes the selection of the insertion base and the designation of the arrangement position within the base range, a predetermined constant is set for each designated player character. The value of or the predetermined value is consumed (subtracted) from the value of the parameter for action.

  The game processing unit 215 executes the process of arranging the plurality of designated player characters, and when the predetermined combo conditions such as the number, the type, and the arrangement position of the designated player character are satisfied, the game processor 215 arranges the designated player characters. Activate combo attack on the character.

  In addition, when the game processing unit 215 can not arrange in the allocable area in the base area of the designated player character during the execution of the arrangement processing, that is, on the area other than the base or the base area which can be designated by the player. If it is detected that the placement processing has been canceled at step S5, the placement processing is stopped.

On the other hand, the parameter control unit 217 not only consumes the action parameter based on the designated player character, but in addition to the consumption, as described above, according to the arrangement where the designated player character is arranged in the base area. The value is consumed (subtracted) from the value of the action parameter
You may

  That is, the parameter control unit 217 consumes the consumption which fluctuates based on the constant consumption or the attribute of the designated player character, as described above, when the designated player character is designated or when the input base is designated. At the same time as the placement of the designated player character in the base area, the consumption amount according to the placement position of the designated player character may be consumed (subtracted) from the value of the action parameter, as described above.

  In addition, when executing the complex consumption of the above-described action parameter, the parameter control unit 217 may consume (subtract) a value calculated using two variables from the value of the action parameter.

In this case, the parameter control unit 217
(1) When the designated player character is designated or designated, the given first variable is calculated by a predetermined operation such as the attribute of the designated player character.
(2) Calculate a given second variable according to the arrangement position where the designated player character is arranged in the base area,
(3) The consumption amount of the action parameter is determined according to the calculated first variable and the second variable, and (4) consumption of the determined consumption amount is executed when the arrangement process is performed.

[4.7] Arrangement Process and Movement Control Process Using Touch Panel Next, the arrangement process and movement control process in the case of using the touch panel of the present embodiment will be described using FIGS. FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining the placement process when the touch panel of the present embodiment is used, and FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining the movement control process when the touch panel of the present embodiment is used It is.

(Placement process using touch panel)
In the present embodiment, basically, a game controller provided with a cross key, an input pointing device such as a mouse or a track ball, a keyboard, or an operating means such as a joystick can be realized by a touch panel is there.

  In this case, the display control unit 212 according to the present embodiment includes a first display area 71 for displaying the deck on the touch panel, and a second display area (so-called game space display area) 72 in which the game space is imaged. ,Form.

  Specifically, the display control unit 212 causes the first display area 71 in which the deck is displayed to display a plurality of player characters to be designated by the player registered in advance as the designated player character candidate 61, and In the display area 72, the game space is visualized and displayed.

  Further, as described above, the operation detection processing unit 211 performs the first detection process for detecting a state in which a touch operation is input to the touch panel, and after the first detection process, the first detection. When the touch operation input at the position where the process is detected is continued and the slide operation is performed on the touch panel, a second detection process of detecting the input in the operation as the slide operation input is executed.

And, as shown in FIG.
(1) A touch operation input is detected on the designated player character candidate 61 displayed in the deck display area by the first detection processing.
(2) The second detection process is performed from the position on the designated player character candidate 61
The slide operation input is detected to the arrangement position 62 in the base area formed in relation to the base via the base 51 displayed in the display area 72,
(3) When it is detected that the slide operation input has been canceled at the arrangement position 62 in the base area 52 (that is, a non-contact state),
Execute placement processing.

  In particular, the game processing unit 215 moves the designated player character 60 from the base 51 to which the base area 52 where the specified player character 60 is located belongs to the placement position 62 in the base area as the placement processing, as described above. While, the placement process for placing in the base area is executed.

(Movement control processing using touch panel)
Base management unit 214 executes movement control processing (control of movement distance and movement direction) for controlling movement of the base based on the touch operation and the slide operation on the touch panel.

In particular, the base management unit 214 is a case where the base to be subjected to the movement control is specified in advance by the operation of the player or the processing on the game.
(1) A touch operation input is detected at a given first position on the display area (for example, the first display area) by the first detection process described above,
(2) The slide operation input is detected from the first position to a given second position by the second detection process described above,
(3) When the third detection process for detecting the non-contact state at the second position is performed,
The movement of the base specified in advance in the game space is controlled in accordance with at least one of the distance from the first position to the second position and the movement direction.

  Specifically, the base management unit 214 calculates the slide direction from the first position and the second position, and moves the corresponding base with the calculated slide direction as the movement direction.

  Further, the base management unit 214 calculates the slide length on the touch panel at the time of the slide operation from the first position and the second position, and the calculated slide length or the length determined by the slide length (for example, the first The base to be moved is moved based on the length of a predetermined multiple of the distance from the position to the second position.

  Then, the base management unit 214 sets the touch operation input of the first detection process to a given first position in the area within the game space where the player character can be arranged and the player character is not arranged. When the slide operation input to the second position and the non-contact state at the second position are detected, at least the distance from the first position to the second position and the movement direction The movement of the base in the game space is controlled according to one of them.

  In particular, in the present embodiment, when touch operation input is performed on a position where a player character such as a designated player character is arranged, the processing may overlap with the execution of the above-described arrangement processing, as described above. In addition, in the processing related to the base movement control processing, when the position where the player character is arranged is detected by the touch operation input, the processing is ignored.

For example, as shown in FIG. 14 (A), a touch operation is detected at the first position, and the slide operation is performed from the first position, in the case where the base α (51) to be moved is selected. It is assumed that the slide operation is performed along the direction A and the slide operation of the slide length B is performed to the second position. Here, it is assumed that no player character is arranged at both the first position and the second position.

  In this case, as shown in FIG. 14B, the base management unit 214 executes movement control of the movement distance corresponding to the length of the slide length B in the slide direction A in the base α.

  As described above, the site management unit 214 may simply follow and move according to the other base different from the base to be moved, or may move according to the capability value and the comment. You may

  Also, the base management unit 214 may calculate the slide direction from the first position and the second position, and move the corresponding base with the given direction determined by the calculated slide direction as the movement direction.

  For example, in this case, the base management unit 214 divides the game space at predetermined angles (for example, 60 degrees around the north, south, east, and west directions) around the first position, and the directions of the respective divided areas The base is moved in the direction corresponding to the area to which the second position belongs, in association with (for example, east-west, north-south, northeast, northwest, southeast, and southwest).
