Description

The present invention relates to a game system, a program, and the like.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, action games and shooting games have been known in which players can freely move in the world/space of a game or the like from a third person's point of view following the main character in the game, and fight using weapons or bare hands.

In addition, in such games, a plurality of players or teams participate in one game world, and the player or team that can continue the game to the end is recognized as the winner. Playing game type games (MMORPG: Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game) are known.

In addition, in such a game, if the player character is caught between objects in the game space and cannot move during the game, the game cannot be continued. There are also games in which, when a character is stuck, the player can manually escape from the stuck state (for example, Non-Patent Document 1).

Izanagi Online Official Site [Searched on August 8, 2018] (URL: https://izanagi.com/information/detail/?information_id=209)

However, in the game system described in Non-Patent Document 1, when the player is unable to move, the player can make an emergency escape and return to the original state by a manual operation of the player's choice. In addition, it is undeniable that the process may be used illegally, such as the player intentionally creating such a situation in order to execute an emergency escape. .

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its object is to reduce the psychological burden on the player by automatically determining whether or not it is difficult to continue the game due to being stuck. To provide a game system or the like capable of suppressing or preventing a decrease in the interest of a game by reducing misbehavior and preventing cheating.

(1) In order to solve the above problems, the present invention
A game system in which a plurality of player characters move and execute a game within a game field formed in a virtual space, and information about the game is provided to a terminal device, in accordance with player's movement operation instructions during the game. movement control means for controlling movement of the player character in the virtual space;
movement determination means for executing movement determination processing for determining whether or not the target player character, which is the target of the operation instruction, is moving in response to the player's movement operation instruction;
A case where it is determined by the movement determination process that the target player character is in a movement stop state in which the target player character is not moving in response to the player's movement operation instruction, and the movement stop state of the target player character satisfies a given condition. movement state determination means for executing a movement state determination process for determining that the target player character is in an immovable state when the
When the movement state determination process determines that the target player character is in the immovable state, a predetermined remedial process for relieving the immovable state that hinders movement of the player character in the virtual space is performed. remedial control measures to be implemented;
and has a configuration.

With this configuration, the present invention can automatically automatically move the player character when, for example, an error in the virtual space prevents the player character from moving in accordance with the player's movement operation instruction and becomes immovable in the current state. The immobility state can be determined, and the immobility state of the target player character can be easily resolved.

For example, according to the present invention, as a rescue control process,
(A1) moving the target player character to another position or area in the virtual space different from the position or area where the immobility state occurred, or
(A2) It is possible to give a privilege to the player who has the target player character.

Therefore, the present invention automatically determines when a player character becomes immobile due to a problem in a game, and easily resolves the immovable state. Since compensation can be simplified, the psychological burden on the player can be reduced, and cheating can be prevented, thereby suppressing or preventing the decrease in interest in the game.

Note that "according to the player's movement operation instruction" means, for example, not only an operation instruction for moving the player character in real time, but also an operation instruction for moving the player character after the operation instruction. For example, if the operation instruction involves movement of the player character, it also includes an action operation instruction for the player character such as an attack.

Further, the “movement determination process for determining whether or not the player character is moving” indicates, for example, determining whether or not the coordinates of the player character in the virtual space have changed.

In particular, whether or not the coordinates change is determined not only by whether or not the coordinates are the same, but also by whether or not the coordinates fluctuate within a predetermined range (reference coordinates (x, y, z)±predetermined values). and whether or not the actual movement amount is smaller than the movement amount when the movement is executed based on the movement operation instruction.

Furthermore, the "given condition" means, for example,
(B1) If the player character does not move for a predetermined period of time (for example, 1 minute),
(B2) When the player character cannot move in a disadvantageous situation, such as when the player character is attacked without changing its position in the virtual space,
(B3) Including the case where the player character cannot move in all possible directions in the virtual space, and (B4) two or more cases of (B1)-(B4).

In addition to the above, the "movement stop state" includes, for example, the case where the movement of the target player character is impeded by an obstacle object that hinders the movement of the target player character, and not only the case where movement in all directions is impossible, Indicates a state in which movement in at least one direction is immovable, but movement in other directions is possible.

The "immovable state" indicates a case where the player character cannot move in all directions.

In addition, in the "movement determination process" and the "movement state determination process", it is preferable to visualize various information related to these for the player who has the target player character. For example, whether the target player character is in a non-moving state by the movement determination process, or whether or not a given condition is satisfied in the movement state determination process, or if there are a plurality of conditions, the condition is satisfied. It is preferable to make the presence condition and the defect condition visible to the player who has the target player character.

Since the game being executed can be reset or terminated, it is possible to execute a process to resolve the situation where the player character is unable to move due to a problem in the game at will of the player.

The "command for rescue" may be, for example, a move command to move the target player character from the position where the player character is unable to move to another position, or reset (continue) the game being executed by the player character. ) or a command to terminate.

When a "command for relief" is given and the target player's character is moved to another position, for example, a predetermined position (which may be an absolute position) and a position relative to the position where the movement is disabled) is determined, and if the other player character does not exist, a movement process of moving the target player character. is preferably executed.

Also, the destination of movement of the target player character may be a position designated by the player or an arbitrary position in the virtual space.

In particular, in the case of such an arbitrary position, for example, a predetermined position (including an area) in the virtual space where no other player characters exist, or a position where player characters of the same team exist (occupied positions of the same team). However, it may be a position where other player characters exist (for example, a non-battle area) as long as the target player character is not disadvantaged by movement.

Furthermore, as the "moving process", it is preferable that the object is dropped into the sea, washed away by water, carried by a moving object, or the like, and executed in accordance with the game effect or game event.

Based on the information transmitted from the server device 10, the display control unit 212 causes the display unit 290 to display information necessary for preventing recurrence of the immobility state within the game field.

The input reception processing unit 213 receives input instructions from the player input by the input unit 260, and outputs the received input instructions to the game control unit 214, the server device 10, or both.

The game control unit 214 cooperates with the server device 10 and executes game processing based on commands received by the input reception processing unit 213 .

In particular, the game control unit 214 receives various information related to the game transmitted from the server device 10 (game information, information related to movement of the player character (including information related to movement determination), information related to movement state, Information on relief processing to be rescued, or information on recurrence prevention when an immobile state occurs) and a command (that is, an input instruction) received by the input reception processing unit 213, a character to be operated. (ie, a player character), or the player characters of other players or other accompanying characters.

On the other hand, the game control unit 214 performs a movement calculation of a character object to be operated such as a moving object (in particular, a character object such as a player character or another player character) in the object space.

That is, the game control unit 214 operates in conjunction with the server device 10 to receive game information transmitted from the server device 10, and input data or programs (movement algorithms) and various data (motion data) input by the player through the input unit 260. ), etc., the moving object is moved within the object space, or processing for controlling the action (motion, animation) of the moving object is performed.

Specifically, the game control unit 214 of the present embodiment controls object movement information (movement direction, movement amount, movement speed, position, rotation angle, or acceleration) and motion information (position or rotation angle of each part object). ) is sequentially obtained for each frame. Here, a frame is a unit of time for object movement processing, motion processing (simulation processing), and image generation processing. In this embodiment, the frame rate may be fixed or may be variable according to the processing load.

Note that the game control unit 214 executes processing for moving the object based on the input direction in the three-dimensional object space.

The game calculation unit 215 is executed in conjunction with the server device 10 , but part or all of it may be formed in the server device 10 .

The virtual camera control unit 216 generates an image of the game space seen from a given viewpoint, which appears to have depth. In this case, the virtual camera control unit 216 performs virtual camera (viewpoint) control processing for generating an image viewed from a given (arbitrary) viewpoint in the object space. Specifically, processing for controlling the position (X, Y, Z) or rotation angle (rotation angle about the X, Y, Z axes) of the virtual camera (processing for controlling the viewpoint position and line-of-sight direction) is performed.

For example, when photographing an object (for example, a character, a ball, or a car) from behind with a virtual camera, the position or rotation angle of the virtual camera (virtual camera direction).

In this case, the virtual camera can be controlled based on information such as the position, rotation angle, or speed of the object obtained by the game control unit 214 . Alternatively, control may be performed to rotate the virtual camera at a predetermined rotation angle or to move it along a predetermined movement route. Also, 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.

Note that the virtual camera may be set as the viewpoint of the player character. Also, when there are a plurality of virtual cameras (viewpoints), the above control processing is performed for each virtual camera.

The game management unit 217 works in conjunction with the server device 10, and based on the player's operation input via the input unit 260, sets the player character and various items used by each player in a game such as a battle game, Register in the user information 273 .

The drawing unit 220 performs drawing processing based on various information relating to image generation transmitted from the server device 10 and the results of various processing (game processing) performed by the processing unit 200, thereby generating an image. , to the display unit (display) 290 .

In particular, the image generated by the rendering 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 to be displayed on the screen, which is an image seen from the virtual camera in the object space.

Here, when generating a two-dimensional image, the drawing unit 220 draws objects in descending order of set priority, and when the objects overlap each other, the drawing unit 220 overwrites the object with the higher priority. do.

When generating a three-dimensional image, the rendering unit 220 of the present embodiment first generates vertex data (vertex position coordinates, texture coordinates, color data, normal vector or α value) of each vertex of an object (model). etc.) is input, and vertex processing is performed based on the vertex data included in the input object data. When performing vertex processing, vertex generation processing (tessellation, curved surface division, polygon division) for redividing polygons may be performed as necessary.

Also, in vertex processing, geometry processing such as vertex movement processing, coordinate transformation (world coordinate transformation, camera coordinate transformation), clipping processing, perspective transformation, or light source processing is performed. It changes (updates, adjusts) the given vertex data for the constituent vertices. Then, rasterization (scan conversion) is performed based on the vertex data after vertex processing, and polygon (primitive) surfaces and pixels are associated with each other. Then, following rasterization, pixel processing (fragment processing) is performed to draw the pixels that make up the image (fragments that make up the display screen).

In pixel processing, texture reading (texture mapping), color data setting/change, semi-transparency composition, anti-aliasing, etc. are performed to determine the final drawing color of the pixels that make up the image, and perspective transformation is performed. The drawn color of the object is output (rendered) to the image buffer 272 (frame buffer, buffer capable of storing image information in units of pixels, VRAM, rendering target). That is, in pixel processing, per-pixel processing is performed in which image information (color, normal, brightness, α value, etc.) is set or changed on a pixel-by-pixel basis.

This generates an image seen from a virtual camera (given viewpoint) set in the object space. Note that when there are a plurality of virtual cameras (viewpoints), images can be generated so that the images viewed from each virtual camera can be displayed as divided images on one screen.

Note that the vertex processing and pixel processing performed by the drawing unit 220 are performed by a shader program written in a shading language, which is hardware that enables the drawing processing of polygons (primitives) to be programmed, that is, a so-called programmable shader (vertex shader and pixel shader). may be implemented. Programmable shaders offer a high degree of freedom in drawing processing by making it possible to program vertex-based processing and pixel-based processing, and can greatly improve expressive power compared to fixed drawing processing by hardware. .

The lock-on processing unit 218 has a condition for preferentially selecting an object that is close to the player character from among a plurality of objects that appear in the game space, and preferentially selects an object that is close to the central axis when aiming. Lock-on processing is executed to determine (lock-on) an object having a lock-on condition such as a condition to be selected as a selection target.

The drawing unit 220 performs geometry processing, texture mapping, hidden surface removal processing, α-blending, etc. when drawing an object.

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

In texture mapping, a process of mapping textures (texel values) stored in the texture storage unit of the storage unit 270 to objects is performed. Specifically, the texture (surface properties such as color (RGB) and α value) is read out from the texture storage unit of the storage unit 270 using texture coordinates set (given) to the vertices of the object, and a two-dimensional image is generated. maps a texture to the object. In this case, processing for associating pixels with texels and bilinear interpolation for interpolating texels are performed.

Note that 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 mapped texture can be dynamically changed.

In this case, textures with different color distributions (pixel patterns) may be dynamically generated, or a plurality of textures with different color distributions may be prepared in advance and the textures to be used may be dynamically switched. may Alternatively, the texture color distribution may be changed for each object.

In 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 drawing pixels is stored. That is, when drawing pixels corresponding to primitives of an object, the Z value stored in the Z buffer is referenced, and the Z value of the referenced Z buffer and the Z value of the drawing pixel of the primitive are combined. If the Z value of the drawing pixel is the Z value on the front side as seen from the virtual camera (for example, a small Z value), the drawing processing of the drawing pixel is performed and the Z value of the Z buffer is updated. update to a valid Z value.

In α-blending (α-blending), the rendering unit 220 performs translucency synthesis processing (normal α-blending, additive α-blending, subtractive α-blending, etc.) based on the α value (A value). Note that the α value is information that can be stored in association with each pixel (texel, dot), and is, for example, additional information other than color information. The α value can be used as mask information, translucency (equivalent to transparency and opacity), bump information, and the like.

Then, the drawing unit 220 in this embodiment may generate an image to be displayed in the display area corresponding to the contact 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 sounds such as BGM, sound effects, or voices, and outputs the game sounds to the sound output unit 292 .

[4] Method of this embodiment [4.1] Overview Next, referring to FIGS. processing) will be described.

FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the outline of the relief processing for rescuing the player character from the immobility state in this embodiment, and FIG. 5 is the outline of the recurrence prevention processing of the immobility state in this embodiment. It is a figure for explaining.

The server device 10 of the present embodiment works in conjunction with the terminal device 20 operated by each player to form, for example, one game space (that is, a game field in a virtual three-dimensional space). It has a configuration in which a fighting game such as a shooting game or an action game is executed by a plurality of player characters each controlled by a player.

The server device 10 has a configuration in which a plurality of player characters move within a game field formed in the game space to execute the game, and information about the game is provided to the terminal device 20 .

In particular, the server device 10 of the present embodiment automatically detects when the player character cannot move in accordance with the player's movement operation instruction due to an error in the game space and cannot move in the current state. It is determined that the target player character is in an immobility state immediately, and the immobility state of the target player character is easily resolved.

Normally, during the execution of such a game, the player character cannot move according to the player's movement operation instruction due to an error in the game space, such as the player character being caught in a terrain object and unable to move. In the state of , it may become impossible to move, and the game may not be able to progress.

Under such circumstances, it is possible for the player to make an emergency escape and return to the original state by any manual operation, but it may be difficult to determine whether the situation is a game malfunction or a game trap. In addition, it is undeniable that such processing may be illegally used, such as the player intentionally creating such a state in order to execute an emergency escape.

Therefore, the server device 10 of the present embodiment automatically determines when the player character becomes unable to move due to a problem in the game, and easily resolves the state or moves the player character. It has a structure that makes it easy to compensate for the disabled state, reduces the psychological burden on the player, and prevents cheating to suppress or prevent the decline in the interest of the game. can be done.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, the server device 10 of the present embodiment controls the movement of the player character in the game space according to the player's movement operation instruction during the game.
(1) executing a movement determination process for determining whether or not the target player character P, which is the target of the operation instruction, is moving in response to the player's movement operation instruction;
(2) When it is determined by the movement determination process that the target player character P is not moving in response to the player's movement operation instruction, and the movement stop state of the target player character satisfies a given condition. executing movement state determination processing for determining that the target player character is in an immovable state when the target player character is equipped;
(3) If the target player character P is determined to be in an immobile state by the movement state determination process, a predetermined relief process for relieving the immovable state that hinders movement of the player character in the virtual space is performed. Execute,
have a configuration.

Note that FIG. 4 shows a case where the target player character P, which is moving in the game space, stops moving at the point A in response to the player's movement operation instruction. there is

In Case 1 of FIG. 4, a terrain object is formed in the direction of travel, and the object player character P can be moved by changing the direction of movement (opposite to the direction of movement in FIG. 4) (that is, , not in an immobile state).

Further, in case 2 of FIG. 4, terrain objects are formed in all directions of the target player character P by falling from a predetermined terrain object, and the target player character cannot move even if the movement direction is changed. The case of the state (that is, immobile state) is shown.

Case 2 in FIG. 4 shows a case in which, in the immovable state, the robot is forcibly moved to another point by forced movement processing as relief processing.

With this configuration, in the present embodiment, it is possible to automatically determine a state in which the player character is unable to move based on a problem in the game, and to easily resolve the state, or can be easily compensated for, so that the psychological burden on the player can be reduced, and cheating can be prevented to suppress or prevent the decline in the interest of the game. It has become.

On the other hand, the server device 10 of the present embodiment, instead of or in addition to the relief processing, restores the immobilized state of each player character in the position in the game space where the movement is disabled or in the area including the position. It has the structure which performs the recurrence prevention process which prevents recurrence.

As described above, when the player character is rendered immobile due to an error in the game space, the game can be restarted if the rescue process is executed.

However, as described above, even if the player is rescued from the immobility state, being in the immobility state itself often reduces the player's interest in the game.

Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, the server device 10 of the present embodiment, in addition to the above configuration, prevents the occurrence of the immobility state at least at the position in the game space determined to be the immobility state. It has a configuration for executing recurrence prevention processing to prevent.

Note that in FIG. 5, terrain objects are formed in all directions of the target player character P by falling from a predetermined terrain object, and the target player character cannot move even if the direction of movement is changed (that is, , immovable state), as a recurrence prevention process, a display object OB10 is installed around the position where the immovable state has occurred, and the display object OB10, which the player character is prohibited from entering, hesitates to move ahead. showing.

With this configuration, in the present embodiment, it is possible to automatically prevent the reoccurrence of an opportunity for the player character to become immobile due to a problem in the game. , so that it can be prevented.

In this embodiment, the other player character may be a character operated by the player, or an NPC (non-player character) that is controlled according to game processing such as a program and is not operated by the player. good too.

Further, in the present embodiment, the "movement stop state" includes, for example, the case where the movement of the target player character is hindered by an obstacle object that hinders the movement of the target player character, and only the case where movement in all directions is impossible. It indicates a state in which movement in at least one direction is impossible, but movement in other directions is possible.

The "immobility state" indicates a case where the player character cannot move in all directions.

[4.2] Relief Processing Next, referring to FIGS. 6 to 8, processing executed when the target player character is in an immobile state according to the present embodiment, and relieving the target player character from the immovable state. A relief process for doing so will be described. 6 to 8 show processing executed when the target player character is in an immobile state according to the present embodiment, and relief processing (invalidation processing, relief processing) for rescuing the target player character from the immovable state. FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining command setting processing and forced movement processing;

(Basic Principle of Relief Treatment)
In the rescue process of the present embodiment, movement determination processing and movement state determination processing are executed as a prerequisite for its execution.

That is, as a premise of the relief processing, the movement determination unit 105 of the present embodiment determines that the target player character has not moved in response to the movement operation instruction by the movement determination processing. Execute movement state determination processing.

Then, the moving state determination unit 106 determines that the target player character is in the immovable state when the state in which the target player character is not moving satisfies a given condition by the movement determining process.

Further, the relief processing unit 107 executes relief processing when it is determined that the target character is in the immovable state.

Specifically, the relief processing unit 107 performs, as relief processing,
(A1) Nullification processing for nullifying attacks from other players against the target player character who is in an immobile state;
(A2) A process of setting an instruction command, which is a command for rescuing the target player character from an immovable state and which can be instructed by the corresponding player who operates the target player character, to be operable by the player (hereinafter referred to as "rescue command setting process"), or
(A3) Movement processing (hereinafter referred to as "forced movement processing") for forcibly moving the target player character to at least a position in the game space different from the position in which the target player character is unable to move. ,
to run.

(Movement determination processing)
The movement determination unit 105 determines whether or not the target player character is moving within the game space (that is, whether or not it is in a movement stop state) in accordance with an operation instruction regarding movement received by the terminal device 20. Execute the process.

In particular, the movement determination unit 105 determines whether or not the target player's character moves up and down, back and forth, or left and right in the game space according to an instruction to move up and down, back and forth, or left and right, which is input in real time. do.

Further, the movement determination unit 105 accepts not only an operation instruction for moving the player character in real time, but also an operation instruction accompanied by movement of the player character, such as an operation instruction for moving the player character after the operation instruction such as a movement attack. In this case, it is determined whether or not the target player character moves up and down, back and forth, or left and right in the game space according to the operation instruction.

Then, the movement determining unit 105 determines whether the target player character can move in the game space by determining whether or not the coordinates in the game space have changed.

In the movement determination process, the movement determination unit 105 determines that not only the coordinates in the game space are the same, but also that the coordinates are within a predetermined range (reference coordinates (x, y, z)±predetermined values). Even if it is determined that the player character is in a movement stop state in which the player character is not moving when it fluctuates and when the actual movement amount is smaller than the movement amount when the movement is executed based on the movement operation instruction. good.

(Movement state determination processing)
The movement state determination unit 106 executes the movement state determination process when it is determined in the movement determination process that the target player character has not moved in response to the movement operation instruction.

Specifically, when it is determined in the movement determination process that the target player character has not moved in response to the movement operation instruction, the movement state determination unit 106 determines whether the target player character has moved based on a given condition. It is determined whether or not it is in the disabled state.

In particular, given conditions, even though the player has given a move operation instruction,
(B1) If the player character does not move for a predetermined period of time (for example, 1 minute),
(B2) When the player character cannot move in a disadvantageous situation, such as when the player character is attacked without changing its position in the game space,
(B3) When the player character cannot move in all possible directions in the game space, and
(B4) If 2 or more of (B1)-(B4),
including.

That is, the movement state determination unit 106 executes the movement state determination process, and determines that the player character is in a state in which the player character cannot move, assuming that a given condition is satisfied when it is determined that one of (B1) to (B4) is satisfied. do.

(Remedy processing 1: Invalidation processing)
As a relief process, the relief processing unit 107 executes a disabling process of disabling attacks from other players on the target player character that is in the immobile state.

In other words, the rescue processing unit 107 can protect the target player character in the immobilized state from attacks from other player characters, and avoid the disadvantage of the target player character due to the immobilized state. configuration.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6A, the relief processing unit 107 arranges an object constituting a barrier around the target player character to protect against invasion and attacks by other player characters. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 6B, a process of rendering the target player character invincible for a certain period of time or until the target player character is rescued.

(Relief Processing 2: Relief Command Setting Processing)
As a relief process, instead of or in addition to the above-described invalidation process, the relief processing unit 107 outputs a command for relieving the target player character from the immovable state. A relief command setting process may be executed to set an instruction command (relief command) CM10 that can be instructed by the corresponding player who operates it so that it can be operated by the player.

In addition, when a relief command is selected, the relief processing unit 107 moves the target player character to a predetermined position (including any position within a specific area), or The target player character is moved to a position preset by the player (including any position within a specific area).

That is, the relief processing unit 107 may have a configuration capable of executing processing for automatically resolving the state in which the player character is unable to move due to the player's will. .

For example, as shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, the relief processing unit 107, as a rescue command (that is, a relief command) CM10, moves the target player character from the immovable position to another position. or a command to reset (including continue) or terminate the game being executed by the player character on the game screen of the corresponding player's terminal device 20 as part of the interface , to display.

Then, when the "relief command" is instructed, the relief processing unit 107 sets a predetermined position (which may be an absolute position or a relative position from the position where the movement is disabled). ) is determined, and if the other player character does not exist, a movement process is executed to move the target player character.

In addition, the relief processing unit 107 is placed at a predetermined position in a non-combat area such as a hospital or a front line base of the team to which the target player character belongs, or at a predetermined position in the game space where no other player character exists. A movement process for moving the target player character may be executed.

The relief processing unit 107 may move to a position preset by a specific player as a destination, or may randomly select from a plurality of destinations when movement is instructed by a relief command. good.

The destination of movement is not particularly limited as long as it is within the virtual space. Positions where characters exist (including areas such as occupied territories owned by the same team) are preferred. However, the movement destination may be a position where other player characters exist as long as the target player character is not disadvantaged by the movement processing.

Furthermore, the rescue processing unit 107 may move to any position or area regardless of whether or not another player character exists. Furthermore, in the same way as described above, a nullification process may be executed to nullify attacks from other player characters.

That is, in this case, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the relief processing unit 107 prevents other player characters from entering or attacking the target player character, which has been moved to an arbitrary position by the movement processing. or a process of rendering the target player character invincible for a certain period of time or until the target player character is rescued.

In the command setting process, the rescue processing unit 107 can be instructed by the corresponding player who operates the target player character, and instead of setting a command for moving the target player character, the target player character A relief command may be set for notifying the game manager of the information on the position in the game space where the player has become immobile.

For example, in this case, when the rescue command is operated by the player, the rescue processing unit 107 sends an in-game notification (log), an email notification to the administrator, or a web page that provides support information. to notify the game administrator.

(Remedy processing 3: Forced movement processing)
As a relief process, instead of the relief command setting process, the relief processing unit 107 forces the target player character to at least a position different from the position in the game space where the target player character has become immobile. A forced movement process may be executed to move the object.

That is, the relief processing unit 107 forcibly moves the immobile player character from the immovable position in the game space to another position in the game space. It may have a configuration capable of automatically and forcibly resolving the state in which the player character is unable to move.

Specifically, when the immovable state occurs, the relief processing unit 107 determines a predetermined position (which may be an absolute position or a position relative to the immovable state). ) is determined, and if the other player character does not exist, a movement process is executed to move the target player character.

For example, as shown in FIG. 8(A), when the target player character P becomes immobile at point A in the game space, the relief processing unit 107 performs the following operations as shown in FIG. 8(B): Forcibly move to point B in the game space.

In addition, the relief processing unit 107 is placed at a predetermined position in a non-combat area such as a hospital or a front line base of the team to which the target player character belongs, or at a predetermined position in the game space where no other player character exists. A movement process for moving the target player character may be executed.

The relief processing unit 107 may move to a position preset by a specific player as the destination, or may randomly select from a plurality of destinations when the forced movement processing is executed. .

Also, the destination is not particularly limited as long as it is within the game space, but for example, a predetermined position within the game space where no other player character exists is preferable. However, the movement destination may be a position where other player characters exist as long as the target player character is not disadvantaged by the movement process.

Furthermore, the rescue processing unit 107 may move to any position or area regardless of whether or not another player character exists. Furthermore, in the same way as described above, a nullification process may be executed to nullify attacks from other player characters.

That is, in this case, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the relief processing unit 107 prevents other player characters from entering or attacking the target player character, which has been moved to an arbitrary position by the movement processing. or a process of rendering the target player character invincible for a certain period of time or until the target player character is rescued.

[4.3] Recurrence Prevention Processing Next, referring to FIGS. 9 to 11, the processing executed when the target player character is in an immobile state according to the present embodiment. A recurrence prevention process for preventing the recurrence of the position and area will be described.

FIGS. 9 to 11 show processing executed when an immobility state occurs in the target player character in this embodiment. FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining recurrence prevention processing (recurrence prevention notification processing, intrusion impossibility processing, and terrain change processing).

(Basic principle of recurrence prevention treatment)
The recurrence prevention processing unit 108 of the present embodiment, instead of or in addition to the relief processing described above, performs at least , recurrence prevention processing is executed to prevent the occurrence of the immobility state at the position determined to be the immobility state in the game space.

Then, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 performs, as recurrence prevention processing,
(A1) recurrence prevention notification processing for notifying a player who has a target play character or another player character different from the target player that the corresponding position or area is an area in which the player character cannot move;
(A2) intrusion impossibility processing for changing the position where the immobility state occurred and the area around it to a state in which the player character cannot enter, or
(A3) Change the terrain object that forms the position or area where movement is impossible to another state (replace with another terrain, delete the terrain, move the terrain to another area, etc.) area change) terrain change processing,
It has a configuration that executes

Note that the server device 10 may execute the recurrence prevention notification process together with the terrain change process or the intrusion prevention process.

(Recurrence prevention processing 1: Recurrence prevention notification processing)
As the recurrence prevention notification processing, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 performs a recurrence prevention notification process in which the target player character who has become immobile is placed in the immovable state (or in an area including the position) in the game space. A display control process is executed to display a display (image (game screen)) indicating the state position on the terminal device 20 of the player having the player character.

In other words, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 prevents the player character from recurring an opportunity to become immobile due to a problem in the game. It has a configuration for executing a process of displaying a game screen on each player's terminal device 20 for making each player aware that there is a possibility that a state may occur.

Specifically, when the game space is displayed on the terminal device 20, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 causes the target player character in the game space to be in an immovable state so that the display object is displayed as a result. A display object indicating the immovable state is formed at the position (or the area including the position) where the movement becomes impossible.

For example, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 may set the position in the game space where the target player character has become immobile as shown in FIG. A display object such as "area" or "number of accidents in the area" is set up to make the player character hesitate to move.

On the other hand, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 displays the immovable state on the item displayed on the terminal device 20, such as the map or rater owned by each player, at the position corresponding to the position where the immovable state occurs in the game space. Display control may be performed to display the message.

For example, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 places a map shown in FIG. As shown, the player character is made to hesitate to move, such as "no entry area", "accident area", or "number of accidents in the area".

It should be noted that the recurrence prevention processing unit 108, when an arbitrary player character enters a position in the game space where the target player character is in an immovable state, notifies the relevant terminal device of the "accident occurrence area". 20 predetermined game screens may be displayed.

(Recurrence prevention processing 2: intrusion prevention processing)
As the intrusion prevention processing, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 may form a specific object into which the player character cannot enter at a position in the game space where the target player character is in an immobile state.

That is, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 physically prevents the player character from entering the position in the game space where the immobility state occurred or the area including the position, for example, as shown in FIG. A specific object (barrier object) 20 is additionally formed to serve as a barrier for entry into the system.

(Recurrence prevention process 3: Terrain change process)
As the terrain change processing, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 changes the state of the constituent objects that make up the immovable state at the position in the game space where the target player character is immobile (or in the area containing that position). , may be changed to a predetermined state.

Specifically, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 performs the
(B1) For example, as shown in FIG. 11A, a terrain object as a constituent object that constitutes a position (or an area including that position) in the game space where the target player character is unable to move is Processing (including adding) to replace the player character with another terrain object such as a sea of trees object or a poison swamp object that cannot survive if the player character falls, or
(B2) For example, as shown in FIG. 11B, a terrain object as the constituent object, or a position in the game space where the target player's character has become immobile (or in an area including that position) A process of moving or deleting (by burying underground in the game space, etc.) moving constituent objects (dynamic objects) that can be moved, such as trees and cars, that are the cause of the disabled state. (Including erasing from the player character's movement range.)
may be executed.

Note that FIG. 11A shows an example in which a Sea of Trees object OB30 that cannot survive when the player character falls to an immovable position is added, and FIG. Here is an example of deleting some terrain objects so as not to be immobile at the position of the state.

Further, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 replaces or in addition to the process of replacing the terrain object, replaces the position in the game space where the target player character becomes immovable (or the area including the position). ) may be replaced with a terrain object for allowing the player to obtain a predetermined item used in the game.

In addition to the above, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 may cause the movement or deletion of configuration objects, such as dropping a meteor to delete a terrain object as described above, even if it is executed in conjunction with game effects or game events. good.

[4.4] Modification Next, a modification of the relief processing or recurrence prevention processing of this embodiment will be described.

(Modification 1: relief processing)
The relief processing unit 107 moves the target player character, which has become immobile, to another position based on the instruction of the relief command, or forcibly moves the target player character to another position. , the process of falling into the sea, the process of being swept away by water, or the process of being carried by a moving object such as a bird or an airplane, etc., may be executed in association with game effects or game events.

(Modification 2: relief processing)
The relief processing unit 107 may give a given benefit to the player having the target player character instead of or in addition to the relief processing.

For example, if the player character is unable to move due to a game malfunction, the relief processing unit 107 may restore in-game currency (including points), items (including gacha lottery tickets), or Benefits such as life points may be given.

(Modification 3: recurrence prevention processing)
As recurrence prevention processing, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 may notify the game administrator of information regarding the position in the game space where the target player character has become immobile.

That is, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 can urge the administrator to eliminate the error of the position where the movement is impossible at an early stage, so that the recurrence of the chance that the player character becomes immobile due to the game defect can be quickly prevented. It has a configuration that can prevent it.

For example, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 implements the "notification" by in-game notification (log), email notification to the administrator, posting on a web page that provides support information, or the like.

(Modification 4: Recurrence prevention processing and relief processing based on the number of occurrences of immobility)
The recurrence prevention processing unit 108 counts the number of occurrences of an immobility state for each position in the game space where the target player character has become immobile (or an area including that position), and based on the number of occurrences, A process of controlling (changing) the display regarding the immobility state may be executed.

Specifically, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108
(A1) Each time it is determined to be in an immobile state, obtain information on the position in the game space determined to be in the immobile state;
(A2) Detecting the number of determinations that the immovable state is determined for each of the acquired positions, and
store in 40,
(A3) When the immobility state is newly determined, the position in the game space (or or area) to control (change) the display regarding the immobility state, and execute recurrence prevention processing.

Specifically, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 does not display the movement-impossible state when the number of determinations is equal to or less than a certain number of times, and strengthens the content of the warning as the number of determinations increases.

For example, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108
(B1) If the number of determinations is up to 2, the display regarding the immobility state is not executed,
(B2) If the number of judgments is 3 to 5, display "under construction",
(B3) If the number of judgments is 6 to 8, display "No entry",
(B4) If the number of determinations is 9 or more, display "Dangerous, potentially life-threatening".

On the other hand, the relief processing unit 107, as relief processing, performs relief processing based on the number of determinations at the position (or area) in the game space determined to be in the immobility state when it is newly determined to be in the immobility state. You may change the contents of

Specifically, similar to the recurrence prevention process, the relief processing unit 107 does not perform relief processing when the number of determinations is less than a certain number of times, and strengthens the content of the relief processing as the number of determinations increases. do.

For example, the relief processing unit 107
(C1) If the number of judgments is up to two, no relief processing is executed;
(C2) If the number of determinations is between 3 and 5, the above forced movement processing is executed,
(C3) If the number of determinations is 6 to 8, in addition to the forced movement process described above, a nullification process of setting a barrier object to prevent the player character from entering the position or area where movement is impossible. and run
(C4) If the number of determinations is 9 or more, in addition to the forced movement process, the invalidation process of making the target player character invincible is executed after the forced movement process.

It should be noted that the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 determines the content of the recurrence prevention processing according to the probability of being in an immobility state by using not only the number of determinations but also the action history of each player character at the position where the immobility state occurred. You can change it.

Similarly, the relief processing unit 107 uses not only the determination count but also the action history of each player character at the position where the immobility state occurred to determine the content of the relief processing according to the probability of becoming immobile. may be changed.

(Modification 5: Visualization of movement determination processing and movement state determination processing)
The movement determination unit 105 of the present embodiment may visualize information indicating whether or not the movement is in a stopped state for the player having the target player character.

That is, the movement determination unit 105 may provide the terminal device 20 of the corresponding player with information indicating whether or not the movement is in the stopped state.

In addition, the movement state determination unit 106 of the present embodiment determines whether or not information indicating whether or not the immobility state exists, and a given condition also used when determining the immobility state. If there is a condition of (1), the information of the condition and the imperfection may be visualized for the player who has the target player character.

That is, the movement state determination unit 106 provides the terminal device 20 of the corresponding player with information indicating whether or not the player is in a movement-impossible state and information indicating whether or not a given condition is met. good too.

[5] Operations in this Embodiment Next, operations of relief processing and recurrence prevention processing including movement determination processing and movement state determination processing executed by the server device 10 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 12 .

A movement determination process is executed to determine whether or not the player character is moving within the game space (step S102).

At this time, if the movement determination unit 105 determines that the target player character, which is the target of the operation instruction, is moving within the game space in response to the player's movement operation instruction, the movement determination unit 105 ends this operation.

On the other hand, when the movement determination unit 105 determines that the target player character, which is the target of the operation instruction, has not moved within the game space in response to the player's movement operation instruction, the process proceeds to step S103.

Next, when the movement determination process determines that the target player character is not moving, the movement state determining unit 106 determines whether or not the target player character is not moving satisfies a given condition. Then, the movement state determination process is executed (step S103).

At this time, if the moving state determining unit 106 determines that the target player character does not move and does not satisfy the given condition, the movement ends.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the target player character does not move, the movement state determination unit 106 determines in advance that the movement state that prevents the player character from moving in the game space is remedied. Then, the relief processing is executed (step S104).

Finally, the recurrence prevention processing unit 108 executes recurrence prevention processing for preventing the occurrence of the immobility state at the position in the game space determined to be the immobility state or in the area containing the position (step S105). end the action.
