Description

従来、複数の設定値のうちのいずれかに設定可能であり、設定された設定値にもとづいて遊技者にとって有利な有利状態の制御を実行可能なパチンコ遊技機があった。このようなパチンコ遊技機において、設定値を確認するための設定確認処理では、実行中のメイン処理が全て終了したときにしか次の処理へ移行できなかった（例えば、特許文献１参照）。 Conventionally, there has been a pachinko gaming machine that can be set to any of a plurality of set values and can control an advantageous state that is advantageous to the player based on the set set value. In such a pachinko gaming machine, in the setting confirmation process for confirming the set value, the process can be shifted to the next process only when all the main processes being executed are completed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

特開２０１０−２００９０２号公報JP-A-2010-200902

しかしながら、特許文献１にあっては、設定確認をすぐに行いたい状況のときに、実行中の全ての処理が終わるまで待たねばならず、好適に設定確認作業を実行することできないという問題がある。However, Patent Document 1 has a problem that when it is desired to confirm the setting immediately, it is necessary to wait until all the processing being executed is completed, and the setting confirmation work cannot be appropriately executed. ..

Game value giving means to give game value and
An information display means (for example, a display monitor) capable of displaying information (for example, a base value) regarding the game value given by the game value giving means is provided.
When the power supply to the game machine is stopped while the change period is timed, and then the power supply to the game machine is restarted and controlled to the setting confirmation state, the setting confirmation state ends. The timekeeping of the change period is interrupted until, and when the setting confirmation state ends, the time measurement of the change period is restarted (for example, the CPU 103 is set when the special variable winning ball device 7 is changed to the open state. Stops the timekeeping of the attacker open time timer period based on the control of the confirmation state, and restarts the timekeeping of the attacker open time timer period based on the end of the setting confirmation state),
When the power supply to the game machine is stopped while the normal variable display period is clocked, and then the power supply to the game machine is restarted and controlled to the setting confirmation state, the setting confirmation state is changed. The time measurement of the normal variable display period is interrupted until the end, and when the setting confirmation state ends, the time measurement of the normal variable display period is restarted (for example, when the CPU 103 is executing the variable display of the normal symbol). Stops the timekeeping of the normal map fluctuation time timer based on the fact that it is controlled to the setting confirmation state, and restarts the timekeeping of the normal figure fluctuation time timer based on the end of the setting confirmation state),
The information display means can display information about a set value set by the setting means in the setting confirmation state (for example, when the setting confirmation state is controlled, the setting value is displayed on the display monitor). It is characterized by that. According to this feature, the setting confirmation work can be suitably executed when the setting confirmation is desired to be performed immediately.
Further, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the gaming machine according to the means 1 of the present invention is

With
The game control means can control a game incapable state in which a game cannot be played in response to the occurrence of a specific event (for example, the occurrence of a game stop error shown in FIG. 9-2) (for example, the occurrence of a game stop error). The part in which the CPU 103 cannot execute the processes S21 to S27 shown in FIG. 9-1 due to the game stop flag shown),
When the information display means is controlled to be in the non-game state, the display of numerical information is restricted (for example, the CPU 103 executes the process of 011SGS304 because the game stop flag indicating the occurrence of a game stop error is set. The part that becomes impossible and the part that executes the processing of 011SGS305 and turns off all the segments that make up the display monitor 207SG029),
further,

Based on the establishment of a predetermined condition (for example, the setting change operation is executed), the setting change means (for example, the CPU 103) that can control the setting change state in which the setting value can be changed executes the setting change value change process. Part) and
The effect control means can cause a predetermined effect means (for example, an image display device 5) to execute an operation based on information (for example, a variation pattern designation command) that specifies that variable display is to be executed.
The predetermined effect means does not execute an operation based on the information that specifies that the variable display is to be executed when the setting is changed (for example, as shown in FIG. 12-3, for effect control. The CPU 120 does not execute control based on the reception of the fluctuation pattern designation command because it discards the fluctuation pattern designation command even if it receives the fluctuation pattern designation command while being controlled to the setting change state). It is characterized by that.
According to this feature, it is possible to prevent confusion caused by displaying information in a non-gaming state. Further, even if an irregular command is received during the setting change state, it is possible to prevent the predetermined effect means from malfunctioning.
