Description

[0001] APPARATUS AND METHOD CONTROLLING ACTION OF CHARACTER IN ONLINE GAME [0002]

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for controlling an operation of an online game, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for controlling an operation of an online game, And more particularly, to an apparatus and method for controlling an online game character.

Most of the online games currently being offered are providing characters. Users access a game server using a terminal of a user, select a character provided in an online game, and enjoy a game by operating a character.

In the existing online game, the operation of the character operating in response to the user's operation is basically set so that the operation for the entire part of the character is operated collectively. That is, in the existing character, the entire operation of the character is set collectively by a specific operation, and individual operation for each part is impossible.

For example, if a user manipulates a character to use an action using a user terminal, the character performs the action with a predetermined motion. For example, when a character is operated to run, the character continues to run only, and if the character manipulates to perform a particular attack technique, the character only performs the attack technique.

When the entire operation of the character is set in one operation in a single operation, there is an advantage that the user can easily manipulate the character. However, there is a problem that the variety of operation is restricted and the degree of freedom of the game is limited. Although online games have been increasing diversity by increasing the number of actions that characters can perform, there has been a limitation in the existing methods in which the behavior of a character is defined collectively.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a character motion control device which can divide a character into parts according to a structure of a character and control the operation of each part of the divided character.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a method of controlling a character operation of an online game.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus for controlling a character movement of an online game, the apparatus comprising: a selection menu detection unit for detecting a selection menu in response to a selection signal from a user terminal; A common action detecting unit for detecting another action menu of the online game character set in which at least one of the action parts of the game character used when executing the selection menu is set to be used; And a control unit for deactivating the another operation menu at the user terminal; .

And the operation menu of the online game character is displayed on the user terminal where the online game is played.

And the operation part of the game character used when executing the selection menu can be set by the user.

The range of the operating part of the game character which can be set by the user is characterized by being variable according to the user level or the reward item.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a character motion control apparatus for allocating a first partial motion for a first part of the online game character according to an input signal from a user terminal playing the online game A partial motion assignment unit; A determination unit for determining whether the first part of the online game character to which the first partial action is assigned by the partial action allocation unit overlaps with the second part of the online game character stored for another partial action; A partial action storage unit for storing the first partial action in the first part when the determination unit determines that the first part of the online character does not overlap the second part of the online character; And independently performing a first partial operation stored in a first portion of the online game character and a second partial operation stored in a second portion of the online game character in accordance with an input signal from a user terminal playing the online game Command section; .

And the first partial operation and the second partial operation can be performed simultaneously.

The partial operation storage unit does not store the first partial operation in the first part when the determination unit determines that the first part of the online character overlaps with the second part of the online character.

Wherein the online game character operation control apparatus further comprises: an overlap display unit for visually displaying the overlapping portion in the online game character when the determination unit determines that the first portion of the online character overlaps with the second portion of the online character; And further comprising:

Wherein the online game character operation control device comprises: a partial display part for visually displaying a part of the online game character in which the partial action can be stored in the user terminal; And further comprising:

The online game character operation control device includes: a change unit that changes the number or the area of the part of the online game character in which the partial action can be stored; And further comprising:

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of controlling an operation of a character in an online game, the method comprising: a game server of the online game detecting a selection signal for a selection menu from the user terminal; Determining a selection menu operation portion which is an operation portion of the game character used in the selection menu in which the selection signal is detected; Determining another operation menu in which at least one of the determined selection menu operation portions is used; And an operation menu in which at least one operation part of the selection menu operation part is judged to be used is changed so that the user selection in the user terminal is not possible; .

Another operation menu judged to use at least one operation part of the selection menu operation part is converted so that the user selection is not possible only at the execution of the selection menu.

And the converted operation menu is displayed so as to be distinguishable from the user terminal so that user selection in the user terminal is not possible.

Accordingly, the apparatus and method for controlling an operation of an online game according to the present invention can maximize the degree of freedom of a game by allowing the operation of the character to be individually operated for each part of the character body, instead of collectively applying the operation of the character to the entire body of the character So that it is possible to increase the interest and immersion of the user in the game.

In the present invention, a character refers to all characters appearing in a game in which a user can experience a single item during an online game. The character appears on the game screen and performs a certain action in the game according to the user's manipulation. Also, the character can be raised in level by accumulating a certain experience value according to the result of the game, and the character's ability value becomes stronger as the level increases. The shape of the character can be variously set according to the kind of the game, and can be set as, for example, a person, an animal, a car, an airplane, or the like.

In the present invention, a map means a virtual space in which a user operated by a user operates to perform a given mission. Maps are provided in various sizes and shapes, depending on the type of game. Depending on the type of game, the map can be displayed as the ground of the real world, or it can be expressed as a forest, a mountain, or a city. It may also be displayed in sky, in the sea, or in outer space in other kinds of games. That is, the map does not refer to a specific space, and any type of virtual space can be provided as a map according to the type of game.

FIG. 1 shows a concept of a character part operation of an online game according to an embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 1 shows a partial motion of a character, wherein (a) shows a left-hand stab technique, which is a partial motion of a character, (b) shows a motion of a character adding a right- .

In an existing online game in which there is no partial action concept of the character, as described above, the operation for the character is set to be applied collectively to the entire operation of the character. Therefore, when the user manipulates the left-hand stabbing technique with respect to the character in the existing online game, the character simply performs the left-hand stabbing technique as shown in (a), returns to the basic posture in which the user has not operated, And then takes a posture corresponding to the next operation input by the user. That is, once the operation command is inputted, another operation can not be taken until the operation is completed, or the operation corresponding to the previously inputted operation command is canceled and the newly inputted operation is taken.

 On the other hand, in the character part operation according to the present invention, when an operation command for right-hand stabbing is input through the user terminal of the user while the left-hand stabbing shown in (a) is being performed, You can add a right-hand stab to the character to perform an action in the form of a two-hand stab. That is, it is possible to input a separate operation command for each part of the body of the character.

In FIG. 1, different commands are input for the left and right hands as a simple example of the character part operation. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is possible to divide each part of the character, . That is, the user can input operation commands, such as running or kicking, to both legs of the character while the character is performing the sticking operation with both hands as shown in (b). If the user manipulates only two-handed stabbing, the character performs both-hand stabbing in place as shown in (b), but if the user further inputs a running command, the character may be able to run in both-hand stabbing positions and assault the opponent.

Therefore, when the character according to the present invention further inputs another operation command while performing the specific operation corresponding to the previous operation command of the user, the character responds to the further input operation command while maintaining the operation corresponding to the previous operation command Thereby further performing an operation.

Therefore, the user can individually manipulate each part of the character, so that the character can be given a very high degree of freedom when operating a character in an online game.

In the above description, the character performing the specific operation has been described as performing the other operation in addition to the existing operation in response to the user's additional operation command, but such additional operation may not always be performed.

In an online game, a character is set to perform various operations. Among these operations, not only an operation using only a specific divided portion but also an operation using a plurality of portions together exist. For example, if a user has entered a running skill with a previous manipulation command, the character will perform a running skill. And the character must use both feet to run the technique. Therefore, the running technique is a technique in which a partial action for at least two feet (or lower body) is set. If the user inputs a right kick command in this state, the character can not perform a right kick or a right kick after stopping the running. That is, the two partial operation control commands have a contradiction in that they control the operations on the same part of the character differently, so that it is impossible to simultaneously execute the two operation commands. Also, two commands using the same part of the character, such as when a left-handed operation command is input during the left-handed stab execution shown in (a), can not be performed together.

Therefore, it is necessary for the character part of the online game according to the present invention to store the information of each part of the character performing the operation according to the operation command in advance so as to prevent the partial action using the same part from overlapping.

If the character portion operations corresponding to the respective operation commands do not overlap with each other, the user may manipulate the character to perform two or more partial operations at the same time. For example, a sitting command using the lower body of the character, an HR command using the right hand, and an item using command using the left hand may be simultaneously applied.

Although FIG. 1 shows a human character as an example of a character, the online game according to the present invention can use various characters such as an animal and an object as well as a human character.

FIG. 2 illustrates a character operation system of an online game according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The online game character operation control system 10 according to the present invention includes at least one user terminal 110 to 130, a network 200, a game server 300, and a character operation control device 400.

At least one user terminal 110 to 130 is provided with a game client for performing a game and displays game data received from the game server 300 including a display unit to a user, And transmits it to the game server 300 and the character operation control device 400 through the network 200. [

In the present invention, at least one user terminal 110 to 130 includes a display unit capable of displaying a game progress state to a user and input means for receiving a command of a user, As shown in FIG. For example, the at least one user terminal 110-130 may be implemented as a computer, a tablet PC, a mobile communication terminal, or a dedicated game machine.

The network 200 provides communication between the at least one user terminal 110-130 and the game server 300 and the character motion control device 400. [ The network 200 may be used interchangeably with communication and communication networks, and the network 200 of the present invention includes both wired and wireless networks. The network 200 may also include both a local area network and a remote wide area network.

The game server 300 is a server computer to which users are connected and connected to use game contents. The game server 300 provides a client program including game contents that can be executed by the user terminals 110 to 130 to the user terminals 110 to 130. The user terminal 110 ~ 130 may provide a web page to which the user terminal 110 ~ 130 can access, and may store user information of users using the game. In addition, the game server 300 may provide various service functions to the user terminal as an additional service so that users can increase their interest in the game. In addition, the game server may store information on various items that can be used at the time of game progress, and may provide a payment means if necessary. Although only one game server 300 is shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of game servers 300 may be provided, and a plurality of game servers 300 may be classified according to functions to provide different services. The plurality of game servers 300 may independently provide game services, and a predetermined number of game servers 300 may provide a game service as a group. The game server 300 or the game server group that provides the game service to the user terminals 110 to 130 is referred to as a channel. The channel is applied to distribute excessive network traffic and the load of the game server 300 in an online game. Generally, game progress information of each of a plurality of channels is processed independently in an online game. That is, each channel provides game service independently. Here, the game service means a service for providing game contents that the user terminals 110 to 130 execute by driving the client programs.

The game server 300 may provide a plurality of characters and a plurality of map information as game contents. A character is any character that appears in a game in which a user can experience a game during an online game. The character appears on the game screen and performs a certain action in the game according to the user's manipulation. Also, the character can be raised in level by accumulating a certain experience value according to the result of the game, and the character's ability value can be strengthened as the level rises.

A map is a virtual space on a game in which a character operated by a user operates to perform a given mission. Maps are provided in various sizes and shapes, depending on the type of game. Depending on the type of game, the map can be displayed as the ground of the real world, or it can be expressed as a forest, a mountain, or a city. It may also be displayed in sky, in the sea, or in outer space in other kinds of games. That is, the map does not refer to a specific space, and any type of virtual space can be provided as a map according to the type of game.

The character operation control device 400 receives game progress information from the user terminals 110 to 130 or the game server 300 during the game progress. Here, the game progress information may include partial information for each of a plurality of characters used in the game and partial operation information for utilizing each of the characters. Then, the character operation control device 400 receives a partial operation operation command from the user terminals 110 to 130.

When a partial operation operation command is received from the user terminals 110 to 130, the character operation control device 400 assigns the partial operation according to the received partial operation operation command to the character, and if the assigned partial operation is the previous partial operation operation command To check whether there is a part of the character superimposed on the part operation currently performed by the character. If there is a portion of the overlapping character, the assigned partial operation is not performed, and if not overlapped, the character is allowed to perform the assigned partial operation in addition to the currently performed partial operation. That is, when an operation command for a new partial operation is input while the character is performing a partial operation, the character operation control device 400 does not perform a new partial operation immediately but discriminates whether there is a character portion overlapping a previous partial operation , It is possible to additionally perform a new partial operation only when there is no part of the overlapping character so that the contradiction of the character operation by the partial operation command of the character can be prevented.

The character operation control device 400 may provide an operation menu for the partial operation operation to the user terminals 110 to 130 as occasion demands. The character operation control device 400 can provide an operation menu to the user terminals 110 to 130 so that the user can easily input an operation command for each partial operation through the user terminals 110 to 130 . If the character operation control device 400 is also performing an operation corresponding to an operation command in a specific part of the character according to a previous operation command of the user, the character operation control device 400 may perform a partial operation May be deactivated. If the operation menu is deactivated in the operation menu in this manner, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of contradictions in the character operation because the partial operation command requiring the same site can not be input at the same time.

2, the character operation control device 400 may be included in the game server 300 or the user terminals 110 to 130 and may be implemented in software .

Fig. 3 shows an example of the configuration of the character operation control device of Fig.

The character operation control apparatus 400 of FIG. 3 includes a menu display unit 410, a selection menu detection unit 420, a common operation detection unit 430, and a control unit 440.

The menu display unit 410 transmits a plurality of operation menus to the user terminals 110 to 130 so that various commands for partially operating the character are displayed by being divided into character regions. When the user selects one of the operation menus through the user terminals 110 to 130, the selection menu detecting unit 420 receives the selection signal from the user terminals 110 to 130 and confirms the selected operation menu. The common motion detecting unit 430 determines a part of the character using the partial operation according to the selection menu and analyzes another operation menu using at least one part of the determined character. The control unit 440 controls the menu display unit 410 to deactivate all the other operation menus using the same region as the site used by the selection menu in the common operation detection unit 430. [ The menu display unit 410 disables some operation menus of the operation menu according to the control of the controller 440 so that the user can not select the operation menus and transmits them to the user terminals 110 to 130.

Fig. 4 shows an example of a character part operation method of the character operation control device of Fig.

The character operation control apparatus 400 generates an operation menu in which various commands for partially operating the character are displayed in a divided manner according to the character regions, and transmits the generated operation menu to be displayed on the user terminals 110 to 130 (S110). The user selects a partial operation command to be performed by the character in the operation menu displayed on the user terminals 110 to 130. The user terminals 110 to 130 generate a selection signal corresponding to the selected menu, To the device (400).

Thereafter, the character operation control device 400 determines whether a selection signal is received from the user terminals 110 to 130 (S120). If the selection signal is not received, the character operation control device 400 waits until a selection signal is received. However, when the selection signal is received, the selection menu corresponding to the selection signal is detected and the user selects the partial operation command (S130). The partial operation of each operation menu displayed on the user terminals 110 to 130 is analyzed (S140). And to confirm the operation part of the character corresponding to the partial operation according to each operation menu.

In operation S150, the common operation part common to the operation part of the character according to the selection menu is analyzed in the operation part of each analyzed character. Here, the common operation section means a partial operation in which a character's part operating according to the selection menu should be utilized.

When the common operation part is analyzed, the operation menu having the common operation part is detected as the common operation menu, the common operation menu is deactivated and transmitted to the user terminal 110-130 (S160). Therefore, since the common operation menu among the plurality of operation menus is displayed in the user terminal, the user can not select the common operation menu.

Fig. 5 shows another example of the configuration of the character operation control device of Fig.

The character operation control apparatus 500 of FIG. 5 includes a partial operation allocation unit 510, a determination unit 520, a partial operation partial operation storage unit 530, a partial operation combination unit 540, an instruction unit 550, A display section 560, a partial display section 570, and a changing section 580. [

The partial operation allocation unit 510 receives a partial operation command signal from the user terminal 110 to 130 and allocates a partial operation for a specific part of the character necessary for the partial operation corresponding to the partial operation command signal.

The determination unit 520 analyzes the other partial operation previously stored in the partial operation storage unit 530 and determines whether the assigned partial operation overlaps with the character's part according to another partial operation previously stored.

The partial operation storage unit 530 stores the assigned partial operation when it is determined that there is no overlapping part of the character between the partial operation assigned by the determination unit 520 and another previously stored partial operation. Also, the partial operation storage unit 530 deletes the partial operation that has been completed during the stored partial operation. That is, the partial action storage unit 530 stores only the partial action that the character is currently performing or is scheduled to perform.

Although the partial operation storage unit 530 is shown as one storage unit in FIG. 5, the partial operation storage unit 530 includes a plurality of partial storage units corresponding to the respective parts of the predetermined character, It is also possible to clarify whether the partial operation is performed or not.

As a result, the determination unit 520 determines whether the partial operation requested by the user through the user terminals 110 to 130 overlaps the same part of the character and the partial operation performed by the current character, The partial action storage unit 530 stores the assigned partial action so that no contradiction occurs in the entire movement of the character.

The partial action combining unit 540 combines all the partial actions stored in the partial action storage unit 530 to determine the movement of the character. As described above, in the partial operation storage unit 530, only partial operations that can be performed by the character at the same time are stored according to whether the determination unit 520 is overlapped. The partial action combination unit 540 may combine the partial actions stored in the partial action storage unit 530 to determine the movement of the entire character, thereby expressing the movement of the natural character.

The instruction unit 550 generates a command signal corresponding to the combined partial action in the partial action combination unit 540 and transmits the generated command signal to the user terminal 110 to 130 or the game server 300 to perform a partial action To perform an operation corresponding to "

The partial action combining unit 540 may be omitted because it is added to produce a natural movement of the character in the game. If the character part operation control device 500 does not include the partial operation combination unit 540, the instruction unit 550 independently generates a command corresponding to each partial operation stored in the partial operation storage unit, 110 ~ 130) or the game server (300).

The overlap display unit 560 compares the partial operation assigned by the determination unit 520 and the pre-stored partial operation, and displays the overlapped portion, which is a character portion used in both partial operations, on the user terminals 110 to 130. [ The overlap display unit 560 generates a character utilization portion display region in a part of the game screen displayed on the user terminal, and displays the overlapping region in the character utilization portion display region. Therefore, the user can confirm the overlapped portion between the partial operation command applied by the user and the previously applied partial operation instruction, so that the cause of the partial operation can be analyzed.

The partial display unit 570 displays the part of the character used by the partial operation stored in the partial operation storage unit 530 to the user terminal. Similar to the overlap display unit 560, the partial display unit 570 generates a character utilization part display area on the game screen, displays all the parts used by the character in the character utilization part display area, So that the rest of the character can be visually confirmed.

The changing unit 580 changes the number or area of the part (or part) to be distinguished from the character. That is, you can change the character's partial action attribute. A partial operation in which a user operates each part of a character individually in a game increases the degree of freedom of the user, making it difficult to manipulate the character. That is, the degree of difficulty of the game increases. This makes it difficult for a user who is not familiar with the game to enjoy the game. Therefore, the changing unit 580 can use the partial operation only when the level of the user or the character is equal to or higher than a preset level, or can increase the number of partial operations that can be operated according to the level. That is, as the user becomes more familiar with the game, the user can be set to have a higher degree of freedom. This allows a novice user with a low level to easily operate the character with a simple operation.

And the changing unit 580 may set the partial operation to be performed only by use of the item. That is, the partial action may be provided as a special technique generated by use of the item, rather than a technique basically provided in the game.

In FIG. 5, the overlap display unit 560, the partial display unit 570, and the change unit 580 are components that are additionally provided for the difficulty control of the game and the user's convenience in the character part operation control device.

 Fig. 6 shows an example of a method of operating the character part of the character operation control device of Fig.

Referring to FIG. 5, a character operation control method of the character operation control device 500 of FIG. 6 will be described. The character operation control device 500 receives an input signal from the user terminals 110 to 130 (S210). Wherein the input signal includes a partial motion manipulation command.

If the input signal includes a partial operation operation command, the character operation control device 500 allocates a partial operation corresponding to the partial operation operation command (S220). Thereafter, the part of the character to be used by the assigned partial operation and the predetermined partial operation is analyzed (S230). As a result of the analysis, the character motion control device 500 determines whether there is a character portion, that is, an overlapping portion, which should be utilized for both the assigned partial motion and the predetermined partial motion (S240). As a result of the determination, if there is an overlapping part, the partial operation is not stored as overlapping partial operation. However, if there is no overlapping part, since the two partial operations do not overlap with each other, the allocated partial operation is stored (S250). Subsequently, an instruction corresponding to all the stored partial operations is generated (S260). Then, the created command is transmitted to the user terminal 110-130 or the game server 300 to allow the character on the game to perform corresponding partial operations. Here, the instruction corresponding to the partial operation may independently generate an instruction for each of the plurality of partial operations when there are a plurality of partial operations, and may combine a plurality of partial operations into one operation, One command may be sent.

7 is a detailed view of the input signal receiving step of FIG.

The input signal receiving step of FIG. 7 shows an operation in the case where the character operation control device 500 includes the partial display portion 570 of FIG.

 The character motion control device 500 first analyzes the currently stored preset motion (S211). Then, the part (region) of the character to be utilized in each of the predetermined partial action is extracted. When a portion of the character utilized by each partial operation is extracted, a character utilization portion display screen is generated to display the portion of the character utilized by the entire partial operation (S213). Then, the created utilization part display screen is transmitted to the user terminals 110 to 130 so that the user can visually check the part currently used in the character. Thereafter, the character operation control device 500 receives an input signal from the user terminals 110 to 130 (S215). That is, the user can confirm the part utilized in the current character, and then transmit the partial operation operation command to the character operation control device 500. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the user inputs an incorrect partial operation operation command.

Fig. 8 shows an example of a character utilization portion display screen.

In FIG. 8, the character-shaped character is displayed. The character-used-portion display screen may be displayed on the entire game screen, but is preferably displayed on a partial area of the game screen. In Fig. 8, the right arm of the character is indicated by the utilization part AP. That is, the current character only uses the right arm as a partial action. Therefore, the user can additionally input a partial motion operation command for the left arm, the left leg, and the right leg, but intuitively understand that the motion control commands for using both arms or the entire body should not be input.

FIG. 9 is a detailed view showing a step of discriminating superposition with the preset part operation in FIG.

The step of distinguishing overlapping with the predetermined part operation in Fig. 9 shows an operation in the case where the character operation control device 500 includes the overlap display part 570 in Fig.

First, the character operation control device 500 analyzes the currently stored preset operation (S231). Then, the assigned partial operation is compared with the previously determined partial operation (S232). It is checked whether there is an overlapping part between the assigned partial operation and the preset partial operation through comparison (S233). Here, the overlapping portion means a portion of a character that utilizes a plurality of partial operations equally as described above. Thereafter, the character motion control device 500 generates an overlapping portion display screen for displaying the overlapped portion of the character (S254). Then, the generated overlapping portion display screen is transmitted to the user terminals 110 to 130.

10 shows an example of the overlapping portion display screen.

In Fig. 10, a human character is shown in the same manner as Fig. 8, and the character overlapping portion display screen may be displayed on the entire game screen, but is preferably displayed on a part of the game screen. In Fig. 10, the utilization part AP is displayed as the entire upper half of the character. That is, the current character is using the entire upper body as a partial action. At this time, if the assigned partial action utilizes the right arm, the right arm is displayed as the overlapping portion (OP) as part of the character that should be utilized in both the predetermined partial action and the assigned partial action. Therefore, the user can easily confirm that the input partial operation command is not performed by generating the overlap portion OP.
