Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[Outline of game system]
The game system 1 includes a management server 10 and a plurality of user terminals 30 communicably connected to the management server 10, as shown in FIG. The game system 1 is configured to be able to execute a game in which a plurality of game contents are played against each other, and the user can participate in the game by using the user terminal 30 .

Here, the game medium refers to any game medium that appears in the game. For example, game objects such as virtual characters, cards, pieces, etc., or decks containing a plurality of game objects, etc., perform actions in the game. Indicates the electronic data obtained. In addition, game media that act based on user instructions can be obtained, possessed, used, managed, exchanged, combined, enhanced, sold, discarded, gifted, etc. by the user in the game, and are in a state associated with the user. indicates electronic data that can perform an action based on a user's instruction. should be set. Each game medium includes, but is not limited to, parameter information (physical strength, attack power, defense power, etc.), ability information (skills, abilities, spells, jobs, etc.), status information (attack attribute, resistance, etc.), Game content information such as level information and rarity information is set, and a battle game is executed based on at least part of the game content information. Also, a game in which game contents are played against each other refers to a game in which game contents divided into two or more groups are played against each other. include.

When the user uses the user terminal 30 to play a competitive game, a game screen such as that shown in FIG. On the game screen, an icon PC of a player character (example of a second game medium) associated with the user is displayed together with an enemy character EC (example of a first game medium). Here, five icons PC01 to PC05 corresponding to five player characters A to E, respectively, are displayed as icons PC. The game screen also includes an icon EC01 of the enemy character EC, an HP gauge EC02 indicating the remaining physical strength of the enemy character EC, a WAIT gauge EC03 indicating the elapsed time with respect to the waiting time until the next action of the enemy character EC, and an enemy character EC. An icon EC04 indicating the state of is displayed in a state associated with the enemy character EC. Note that the number of player characters may be arbitrarily set according to game balance and the like, and is not particularly limited, but may be six, for example. In addition to the player character associated with the user, the player character side may include, for example, a player character associated with another user, an ally character who participates as an assistant, and the like.

The game system 1 provides the enemy character EC with an action opportunity according to the passage of time, and provides the player character with an action opportunity when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The game system 1 may be configured to execute a predetermined action game based on a user's operation during a battle game, for example, and to give action opportunities to the player character according to the game result of this action game. Not limited. The game system 1 may be configured, for example, to provide action opportunities to the player character as time elapses.

In the battle game, the battle progresses as the enemy character EC and the player character attack the opponent's character according to the action opportunity. Then, when either the enemy character EC or the player character runs out of remaining physical strength, the side with the remaining physical strength is regarded as the loser, and the battle ends.

Also, in the battle game, when the enemy character EC performs an action such as an attack on the player character, the waiting time until the next action is set for the enemy character EC. When the waiting time is set for the enemy character EC, the WAIT gauge EC03 increases according to the elapsed time. Then, when the waiting time set for the enemy character EC has elapsed, the WAIT gauge EC03 is filled up, and the enemy character EC is given an opportunity to act. The enemy character EC performs the next action according to the provided action opportunity.

The enemy character EC is set to be able to perform a specified action from among various actions, and is set to be able to perform a skill related to a speed up action (example of first specific action) as one of the actions. It is When the enemy character EC executes the speed increasing action, the waiting time scheduled to be set for the enemy character EC is changed so as to decrease by a predetermined first factor according to the speed increasing action, and the waiting time after the change is as follows. It is set to the enemy character EC as a waiting time until action.

On the other hand, the player character is set so as to be able to perform actions based on instructions from the user from among various actions, and as one of the actions, the player character can perform a skill related to a speed down action (example of the second specific action). is set to When the player character performs the speed DOWN action on the enemy character EC, the standby time already set for the enemy character EC is changed to increase by a predetermined second factor according to the speed DOWN action. On the game screen shown in FIG. 2, an icon EC04 is displayed to indicate that the speed DOWN action is being performed on the enemy character EC and the standby time of the enemy character EC is increasing.

In the battle game, the game system 1 can change the waiting time until the next action set for the enemy character EC according to the action of the enemy character EC and the action of the player character. The user can be made to consider the bargaining. In other words, the game system 1 can improve the strategic nature of the battle.

As the process of changing the action timing of the enemy character EC, a process of changing the remaining time from the execution timing of the skill related to the waiting time change until the execution of the action by a predetermined magnification is also conceivable. For example, a process of changing the action speed of the enemy character EC (increasing speed of the WAIT gauge EC03) after the timing when the skill is executed can be considered. However, if this process is adopted, the less the remaining time after the skill execution timing, the less effective the skill related to the waiting time change.

On the other hand, the game system 1 of this embodiment changes the standby time set for the enemy character EC by a predetermined magnification, and the remaining time until the enemy character EC executes the next action is changed by a predetermined magnification. It does not change. For this reason, the game system 1 allows the enemy character EC to perform the DOWN action even when the remaining time until the enemy character EC performs the next action is short. Action timing can be appropriately delayed.

[Configuration of game system]
As shown in FIG. 1, the game system 1 has a configuration in which a management server 10 and a plurality of user terminals 30 are connected via a network N. The management server 10 and the user terminals 30 each operate as an information processing device. , the battle processing related to the battle game is executed in parallel. In this embodiment, both the management server 10 and the user terminal 30 operate as the information processing device according to the embodiment. It may be a configuration that operates.

As shown in FIG. 1, the management server 10 has a control unit 11 that executes various calculations, a storage unit 12 that stores various programs and data, and a communication unit 13 that transmits and receives data to and from other devices. ing. When the management server 10 receives a competition start request for the competition game from the user terminal 30, it transmits competition data necessary for executing the competition game to the user terminal 30 and starts competition processing. A battle process is executed by receiving user operation information, information related to character actions, and the like. The battle data is stored in the storage unit 12, and includes, for example, data of users participating in the battle, data of enemy characters and player characters participating in the battle, a plurality of battle parameters associated with each of the characters, and data of the battle. Contains various data such as setting data for action games executed during the game.

The user terminal 30 is an information processing device used by a user, and is connected to the management server 10 via the network N. FIG. The user terminal 30 includes a control unit 31 that executes various calculations, a storage unit 32 that stores various programs and data, a communication unit 33 that transmits and receives data to and from other devices, and a liquid crystal display or organic EL display, for example. and an operation unit 35 configured by, for example, a touch panel.

When the user's operation information is acquired by the control server 10, the battle processing is executed using the acquired operation information, and the operation information and information related to the behavior of the character are transmitted to the management server 10. FIG.

[Enemy character data details]
Here, the data of the enemy character participating in the battle will be described in detail. Battle data including enemy character data is stored in the storage unit 12 of the management server 10. When the battle game is started, the battle data is transmitted from the management server 10 to the user terminal 30 and stored in the storage unit 32 of the user terminal 30. remembered. As a result, the management server 10 and the user terminal 30 can execute the battle process in parallel using the enemy character data stored in their respective storage units. The game system 1 stores battle data including enemy character data in a predetermined database (not shown in FIG. 1). 30 and stored in the storage unit 12 of the management server 10 and the storage unit 32 of the user terminal 30 .

The enemy character data includes data indicating the relationship between the remaining HP of the enemy character and the mode shown in FIG. 3, data associated with the enemy character shown in FIG. 4, and data associated with the action shown in FIG. include. The data structure of the enemy character data is not particularly limited to those illustrated in FIGS. 3 to 5. FIG.

The enemy character is set to transition to different modes according to the ratio of remaining HP to total HP. The mode defines the action pattern of the enemy character in the battle, and the enemy character performs actions according to the action pattern defined by the selected mode. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, when the percentage of remaining HP is between 100% and over 90%, the enemy character performs an action based on mode A, and when the percentage of remaining HP is between 90% and over 70%, the enemy character performs an action based on Mode B, and if the percentage of remaining HP is between 70% and 40%, the enemy character performs an action based on Mode C, and if the percentage of remaining HP is between 40% and 0%, The enemy character performs actions based on Mode D. Note that the correspondence relationship between the remaining HP ratio and the mode may be different for each enemy character.

As shown in FIG. 4, each enemy character is associated with an enemy character ID, a mode that can be set for the enemy character, and the HP of the enemy character in each mode. Each mode also has an action number that indicates the order in which the enemy character's actions are selected in the selected mode, and a waiting time (specific waiting time) that indicates the time (seconds) from when the action is selected until the action is executed. are associated with actions to be executed. As shown in FIG. 5, the action to be executed is associated with action content, which is the action execution content, and a line spoken by the enemy character when executing the action.

Enemy characters participating in the battle game automatically act according to the calculations of the control units 11 and 31 based on the above data. For example, for an enemy character with an enemy character ID of EC001, mode A is selected according to the ratio (100%) of the remaining HP to the total HP at the start of battle processing, and actions are taken in order from action number 01 associated with mode A. is selected. Also, the selected action is executed when the waiting time associated with the action has elapsed. Specifically, the enemy character performs action 01 (○○ damage attack) at the start of the battle process (waiting time 0 seconds), and then action 02 (△△% speed up) after the waiting time of 7 seconds has passed. to run. Note that when the enemy character executes the action 03, a process of returning to the action number 03 is executed in the action number 04, and the process related to the action 03 is executed again.

When the enemy character executes the △△% speed up action associated with action 02, the waiting time until the action 03, which is the next action, is executed is changed by a factor defined by 1/△△%. Specifically, the standby time is set to the enemy character by multiplying the unique standby time (10 seconds) associated with the action 03 by 1/ΔΔ%, which is the change magnification of the standby time. A process to change the time is executed. For example, when the 200% speed up action is executed, that is, when 1/ΔΔ% is 0.5, the waiting time until the enemy character executes action 03 is 10 seconds×0.5=5 seconds. The changed standby time of 5 seconds is set for the enemy character as the standby time until action 03 is executed.

If the HP of the enemy character in Mode A becomes 0 or less due to an attack from the player character while the enemy character is acting based on Mode A, the mode set for the enemy character will be changed to that of the enemy character. Mode A is changed to mode B according to the ratio of remaining HP to total HP (90% or less). When the mode set for the enemy character is changed to mode B, the enemy character executes action 04 according to action number 01 associated with mode B. From mode B onward, actions are selected according to the action numbers associated with the modes, as in mode A.

[Management server functional configuration]
As shown in FIG. 6, the management server 10 includes a battle processing unit 110 that executes battle processing related to the battle game, an action processing unit 120 that causes the enemy character to act based on the data of the enemy character, and the enemy character to perform the following actions.

The management server 10 is configured to receive, from the user terminal 30 via the communication unit 13, user operation information, character action information, and the like in the battle process, thereby executing the battle process.

Upon receiving a battle start request for a battle game from the user terminal 30, the battle processing unit 110 transmits the battle data stored in the storage unit 12 to the user terminal 30, starts battle processing, and determines the opponent based on the battle data. A character and a player character are played against each other. Also, the battle processing unit 110 receives user operation information in the battle process, information related to the action of the character, etc. from the user terminal 30, and calculates the action results of the enemy character and the player character. to execute the battle process. The battle processing unit 110 also executes processing related to an action game that is executed during the battle game.

The action processing unit 120 causes the enemy character to act based on the enemy character data stored in the storage unit 12 . The action processing unit 120 causes the enemy character to perform a predetermined action when the enemy character is given an opportunity to act.

After causing the enemy character to perform a predetermined action, the waiting time setting unit 130 sets the waiting time for the next action for the enemy character and stores it in the storage unit 12 .

The standby time management unit 140 manages the elapsed time from when the standby time for the next action is set for the enemy character until the standby time is reached, and gives the enemy character an action opportunity according to the passage of time. Specifically, the waiting time management unit 140 repeatedly calculates remaining time=waiting time already set for the enemy character−elapsed time, and when the remaining time becomes 0 or less, an action opportunity is given to the enemy character. to give

The waiting time change unit 150 performs processing for changing the waiting time scheduled to be set for the enemy character so as to decrease it by a predetermined first factor and for increasing the waiting time already set for the enemy character by a predetermined second factor. Do at least one of the processes that change to Specifically, when the standby time change unit 150 changes the scheduled standby time set for the enemy character so as to reduce it by a predetermined first factor, the standby time set for the enemy character=the next action. The standby time is changed so as to be the associated unique standby time×the first magnification. In addition, when the waiting time change unit 150 changes the waiting time set for the enemy character so as to increase the waiting time set for the enemy character by a predetermined second factor, the waiting time set for the enemy character = the unique waiting time associated with the action. × Change the standby time so that it becomes the second magnification. If the number of seconds of the waiting time after the change is a fraction, it is preferable to round up the fraction.

[Functional configuration of user terminal]
As shown in FIG. 7, the user terminal 30 includes a battle processing unit 310 that executes battle processing related to the battle game, an action processing unit 320 that causes the enemy character to act based on the data of the enemy character, and the enemy character to perform the following actions. A standby time setting unit 330 for setting a standby time related to an action; a standby time management unit 340 for managing the elapsed time from setting the standby time to the standby time; A waiting time changing unit 350 for changing the waiting time set for the character is provided. Each of these functions is implemented by the control section 31 that operates based on the programs stored in the storage section 32 . The user terminal 30 receives the battle data necessary for executing the battle game from the management server 10 via the communication unit 33, and then acquires the user's operation information via the operation unit 35, thereby executing the battle process. is configured as

The battle processing unit 310 transmits a battle start request relating to the battle game to the management server 10, and when receiving battle data from the management server 10, stores the received battle data in the storage unit 32, starts battle processing, and starts the battle. An enemy character and a player character are played against each other based on data. Further, the battle processing unit 310 acquires user operation information via the operation unit 35, calculates the action results of the enemy character and the player character, and executes battle processing based on the calculation results. It transmits to the management server 10 information about the user's operation in the process, information about the action of the character, and the like. The battle processing unit 310 also executes processing related to an action game that is executed during the battle game.

The action processing unit 320 causes the enemy character to act based on the enemy character data stored in the storage unit 32 . The action processing unit 320 causes the enemy character to perform a predetermined action when the enemy character is given an opportunity to act.

After causing the enemy character to perform a predetermined action, the waiting time setting section 330 sets the waiting time for the next action for the enemy character and stores it in the storage section 32 .

The standby time management unit 340 manages the elapsed time from when the standby time for the next action is set for the enemy character until the standby time is reached, and gives the enemy character an action opportunity according to the passage of time. Specific processing by the standby time management unit 340 is the same as that of the standby time management unit 140 .

The waiting time change unit 350 performs processing for changing the waiting time scheduled to be set for the enemy character so as to decrease it by a predetermined first factor and for increasing the waiting time already set for the enemy character by a predetermined second factor. Do at least one of the processes that change to Specific processing by the standby time changing unit 350 is the same as that of the standby time changing unit 150 .

As described above, in the game system 1, each of the management server 10 and the user terminal 30 concurrently executes the battle process related to the battle game. Therefore, the game system 1 can verify whether or not there is an inconsistency in the battle process by comparing the results of the battle process of the management server 10 and the user terminal 30, for example.

[Enemy Character Action Processing in Battle Processing]
The battle process related to the battle game executed by the management server 10 and the user terminal 30 provides action opportunities to the enemy characters as time elapses and causes the enemy characters and the player characters to battle each other. Here, action processing of the enemy character in the battle processing will be described in detail. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an example of action processing of the enemy character in the battle processing relating to the battle game. It explains action processing.

When the battle processing section starts the battle, the enemy character starts acting according to the action pattern defined in the selected mode.

First, the action processing section causes the enemy character to perform an action (first action) based on the data of the enemy character (first action step).

When the speed increasing action (first specific action) is executed as the enemy character's first action (SA100 YES), the action processing unit causes the enemy character to execute the speed increasing action (SA102). Then, the waiting time change unit sets a first magnification for changing the scheduled waiting time set for the enemy character (waiting time for the second action, which is the next action) so as to decrease it (SA104). On the other hand, if the first action is not the first specific action (SA100 NO), the action processing unit causes the enemy character to perform another specified action (SA106).

Next, the standby time setting unit sets the standby time for the enemy character for the second action, which is the next action after the first action, and stores it in the storage unit (SA108, setting step). Here, when the first magnification is set in SA104, the standby time change unit changes the standby time set for the enemy character by the first magnification (first change step), and the standby time setting unit , the changed standby time is set for the enemy character and stored in the storage unit.

Then, the standby time management unit manages the elapsed time so as to wait the execution of the second action of the enemy character until the elapsed time from setting the standby time reaches the standby time (SA110, standby step). . Note that the enemy character may be set to perform an action other than the second action until the elapsed time reaches the standby time. For example, the enemy character may be set to automatically perform a predetermined action regardless of the elapsed time at the timing of being attacked by the player character or at the timing when the enemy character's remaining HP becomes equal to or less than a predetermined value. good.

While the waiting time management unit is managing the elapsed time, that is, while the execution of the enemy character's second action is on standby, the battle processing unit causes the player character to perform a speed DOWN action (second action) on the enemy character. 2 specific action) is executed.

If the speed DOWN action (second specific action) is executed by the player character acting on the instruction of the user while waiting for execution of the second action of the enemy character (SA112 YES), the waiting time change unit sets a second magnification for increasing the standby time set for the enemy character (SA114). Then, the waiting time changing unit changes the waiting time set for the enemy character by the second magnification (SA116, second changing step).

Next, the standby time management unit determines whether or not the standby time has passed (SA118). If the waiting time has not elapsed (SA118 NO) and if the battle has not ended (SA120 NO), the battle processing unit continues monitoring execution of the second specific action by the player character. On the other hand, if the waiting time has elapsed (SA118 YES), the action processing section causes the enemy character to perform an action (second action) based on the data of the enemy character. That is, after the elapsed time managed by the standby time management unit reaches the standby time set for the enemy character, the action processing unit causes the enemy character to perform the second action (second action step).

After causing the enemy character to perform the second action, the waiting time setting unit resets the waiting time for the next action of the enemy character (resetting step). These processes are repeated until the battle ends.

[Communication processing in a raid battle]
The game system 1 is configured such that a plurality of user terminals 30 are connected via a network N so that a plurality of users can cooperate to execute a raid battle against a powerful enemy raid character. In addition, the game system 1 is configured so that a user of another user terminal 30-2 can participate in the middle of a raid battle started by a user of one user terminal 30-1. Although the remaining HPs of the raid characters in the raid battle are matched, the timings of actions performed by the raid characters are not synchronized, and the battle game is executed. That is, the game system 1 provides the raid character with an action opportunity according to the lapse of time that differs for each user terminal 30, and provides a plurality of raid characters and at least one of which each of the users of the plurality of user terminals 30 operates. It is configured to be able to execute an online game in which the player character is played against.

In the raid battle in which a plurality of users cooperate, when a player character operated by one user performs an action that has an advantageous effect on the user side, the advantageous effect spreads to the player characters operated by other users. designed to However, the game system 1 does not execute the process of matching the timings of the actions executed by the raid characters in the raid battle. For this reason, when a player character operated by one user performs a speed down action (second specific action) on a raid character, what is the waiting time of the raid character on the user terminal 30 of the other user? Need to consider changing. Therefore, in the game system 1, when the second specific action is executed by a player character acting based on an instruction from one of the users, the raid character is set as a raid character that acts according to the passage of time, which differs for each user terminal 30. A method of changing each of the standby times by a second magnification is adopted.

FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an example of communication processing in a raid battle. In the following description, it is assumed that the user terminal on the left side of the drawing is the user terminal 30-1 and the user terminal on the right side is the user terminal 30-2.

When the user terminal 30-1 transmits a battle start request to the management server 10 (SB300), the management server 10 executes the battle start processing for the raid battle (SB100), and sends the battle data necessary for the battle processing to the user terminal 30-1. 1 (SB102), and battle processing is started in which the raid character and the player character operated by the user of the user terminal 30-1 compete (SB104). The user terminal 30-1 also receives the battle data from the management server 10 and starts battle processing (SB302).

When the user of the user terminal 30-2 participates in the middle of the raid battle executed in response to the battle start request of the user terminal 30-1, the user terminal 30-2 transmits the battle participation request to the management server 10 (SB500 ). When the management server 10 receives a battle participation request from the user terminal 30-2 during the battle process, the management server 10 executes the battle participation process to allow the user of the user terminal 30-2 to participate in the raid battle midway (SB106). battle data is transmitted to the user terminal 30-1 and the user terminal 30-2 (SB108), and the raid character and the player character operated by the user of the user terminal 30-1 and the player character operated by the user of the user terminal 30-2 A battle process is started (SB110). Also, the user terminal 30-1 and the user terminal 30-2 also receive the battle data from the management server 10, and start the battle process in which the player character operated by the user of the user terminal 30-2 participates (SB304 and SB502).

Next, when the player character operated by the user of the user terminal 30-1 executes the second specific action, the user terminal 30-1 transmits information on the second specific action to the management server 10 (SB306). When the management server 10 receives the information related to the second specific action from the user terminal 30-1, the management server 10 sends change information (waiting time change instruction) for changing the waiting time set for the raid character by the second magnification to the user terminal 30-1. -1 and the user terminal 30-2 (SB112). When the user terminal 30-1 and the user terminal 30-2 receive the standby time change instruction from the management server 10, each of the standby times set for the raid character at the time of receiving the standby time change instruction is increased by the second magnification. change (SB308 and SB504).

As described above, the game system 1 provides action opportunities to raid characters independently (without synchronizing) among a plurality of user terminals 30. Therefore, when a large number of user terminals 30 are connected via the network N, Even so, it is possible to prevent the concentration of communication on the management server 10 and suppress the processing load of the management server 10 . In addition, since the user terminal 30 does not execute synchronization processing related to the actions of the raid characters, the processing load on the user terminal 30 is suppressed.

Further, in the game system 1, when the player character operated by the user of the user terminal 30-1 executes the second specific action, the game system 1 is set as a raid character that acts according to the passage of time on the user terminal 30-1. Along with changing the waiting time, the waiting time set for the raid character that acts according to the passage of time on the user terminal 30-2 is also changed. For example, the second specific action is an action that increases the standby time set for the raid character by 1.5 times, and the action A is set for the raid character waiting for action according to the passage of time on the user terminal 30-1. If the standby time is 10 seconds and the standby time set for the raid character waiting for action in action B is 6 seconds according to the passage of time on the user terminal 30-2, then the raid character on the user terminal 30-1 is changed to 10 seconds×1.5=15 seconds, and the standby time set for the raid character on the user terminal 30-2 is changed to 6 seconds×1.5=9 seconds. For this reason, the game system 1 allows the player character operated by the cooperative user to operate without disturbing the game balance, even in a battle game in which the enemy character is given an opportunity to act according to the passage of time, which differs for each terminal. It can spread beneficial effects.

[Other embodiments]
The invention is not limited to the above embodiments.

Although the game system 1 includes the management server 10 and the user terminal 30 in the above embodiment, the configuration of the game system 1 is not limited to this. For example, a single information processing device that includes all the components included in game system 1 may be employed.

Further, in the above embodiment, each of the management server 10 and the user terminal 30 executes the battle processing related to the battle game in parallel. It is not limited to one that includes all of the action processing unit, standby time setting unit, standby time management unit, and standby time change unit. For example, each of the battle processing unit, the action processing unit, the waiting time setting unit, the waiting time management unit, and the waiting time changing unit may be provided in either one of the management server 10 and the user terminal 30 . That is, some or all of the functions realized by the management server 10 may be realized by the user terminal 30, and some or all of the functions realized by the user terminal 30 may be realized by the management server 10.

In the above embodiment, an enemy character is used as the first game medium, and a plurality of player characters are used as the second game medium. Not limited. For example, a battle game may be employed in which player characters are used as both the first game medium and the second game medium, and the player characters battle each other. Also, the number of first game media is not limited to one, and may be multiple.

In the above embodiment, the waiting time changing unit changes the waiting time to be set for the enemy character so as to decrease it by a predetermined first factor (first changing step) and the waiting time already set for the enemy character. is increased by a predetermined second magnification (second changing step), but the waiting time changing unit executes only one of the above processes. may be That is, it is not limited to executing both the first changing step and the second changing step, and the first changing step or the second changing step may be executed. However, it is preferable that at least the second change step is executed from the viewpoint of improving the strategy in the battle.

Also, the first magnification may not be a magnification that reduces the standby time, and the second magnification may not be a magnification that increases the standby time.

Also, the period during which the waiting time is continued to be changed may be, for example, the period until the first game medium executes the second action (period of execution only once), or the period until the end of the competitive game. (permanent period). However, from the viewpoint of improving the strategic nature of the match, the period during which the waiting time will continue to be changed is a predetermined time (effective time) that is predetermined according to the action content of the first specific action or the action content of the second specific action. It is preferable that it is a period (fixed effective period) until the That is, it is preferable that the first change step or the second change step change the waiting time until at least the predetermined time has passed. For example, the action content of the first specific action or the action content of the second specific action may be the content of reducing (increasing) the standby time of the enemy character by ΔΔ% for 60 seconds.

In addition, if the first change step or the second change step changes the waiting time until at least a predetermined time has passed, the waiting time should be designed so that the change continues over a plurality of actions. can be done. That is, if the waiting time changed in the first changing step or the second changing step is shorter than the predetermined time, in the resetting step, the multiplying factor obtained by changing the waiting time in the first changing step or the second changing step is used to obtain the following It can be designed to change the standby time related to the action and reset the changed standby time to the enemy character.

In addition, it is possible to design so that when both the first changing step and the second changing step are executed, the waiting time changes overlap. That is, when both the first change step and the second change step are executed, the waiting time is set to a value obtained by multiplying the unique waiting time by a multiplying factor corresponding to the sum of the first multiplying factor and the second multiplying factor. You can change the time. For example, when the waiting time changing unit simultaneously validates the waiting time change by the first changing step and the waiting time change by the second changing step once, the waiting time already set for the enemy character is associated with the action. The standby time may be changed so as to be the given unique standby time×(first multiplier+second multiplier−1).

In the above embodiment, after causing the enemy character to perform the first action, the waiting time is set for the enemy character based on the second action, which is the next action after the first action. Such waiting time is not limited to being determined based on the second action, and for example, the waiting time may be set for the enemy character based on the executed first action.
