According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first block correction module 1341 selects a block including the coordinate information of the first selected position and blocks adjacent to the selected block, The area having the largest width (the largest number of overlapped blocks) can be corrected to be selected as the first block. The adjacent blocks may be blocks located in east, west, south, north, southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest based on the coordinate information of the selected location. Here, the predetermined area may vary depending on the needs of the person skilled in the art, but may be determined in consideration of the area of the finger to be touched on the touch screen, and the shape of the square, circle,

In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the first block correction module 1341 additionally determines whether or not a block in which a tile is arranged is present among blocks overlapping a certain area, The block in which the tiles are arranged can be corrected to be selected as the first block regardless of the width of the tiles. The first block correction module 1341 calculates a width of a region overlapped with a predetermined region based on only a block in which a tile is arranged, It is possible to correct a block in a much overlapped area to be selected as a first block. That is, the first block correction module 1341 allows the block having the padding to be selected among the blocks overlapping the predetermined region and the first region when the first block is selected. When there are two or more blocks in which the padding is arranged, The block in which the tiles are arranged is selected as the first block so that the correction is performed such that the block is the closest to the block that is supposed to be selected by the user.

The above-described neighboring block selection and the calculation of the width of the overlapping area can be performed while proceeding in a predetermined direction. The procedure is referred to as scanning, and the predetermined direction to be scanned may be zigzag from right to left or up and down from the upper left. May vary depending on the needs of the user.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, when there are a plurality of blocks having the same overlapping area among a certain area and overlapping areas, the first block correction module 1341 corrects the blocks or selected blocks on the game map Scanning in a predetermined direction, and correcting one of the scanned blocks, which satisfies a predetermined block selection criterion, to be selected as the first block. Here, the block selection criterion may be set so that a block of the first scanned area in a predetermined direction among the plurality of block areas having the same overlap area among the predetermined area and the overlapped area is selected to be the first block, Can be corrected to be selected as the first block. In the present embodiment, the preset block selection criterion is defined as the block of the first scanned area or the block of the last scanned area among the plurality of block areas having the same overlapping area among the predetermined area and the overlapping area. The present invention is not limited thereto and can be implemented so that one block can be selected by changing a block selection criterion according to the needs of a person skilled in the art.

Preferably, the first block correction module 1341 selects adjacent blocks on the basis of the coordinate information of the first selected position among the game maps provided by the game map providing module 133, If one of the blocks overlapped with the predetermined area is arranged, the block in which the corresponding block is disposed is selected as the first block, and if the block among the blocks overlapped with the predetermined area has a plurality of layout blocks, The width of the overlap area between the area of the plurality of arranged blocks and the predetermined area is calculated so that the block having the largest width of the overlap area is selected as the first block and the area of the overlap area between the finally selected blocks and the predetermined area When a plurality of blocks having the same area are present, a plurality of blocks having the same width of the overlapping area are scanned in a predetermined direction The blocks present in order to meet the block when a preset selection criteria may be selected as the first block.

Even if the user can not select the center of the block at the time of selecting the first block through such a correction, the block closest to the user's intention can be selected based on the coordinate information in the block, Convenience can be provided.

Hereinafter, the second block correction module 1342 will be described.

The second block correction module 1342 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include or include the corresponding position based on the coordinate information of the second selected position in the state where the first block is designated by the first block correction module 1341 It is possible to perform correction to designate an adjacent block as a second block. When a plurality of pieces of coordinate information corresponding to the touch region of the user's finger are received when the user selects the touch screen, for example, the second block correction module 1342, Can determine one coordinate information through a predetermined calculation method as described above.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the second block correction module 1342 selects a block including coordinate information of the second selected position and blocks adjacent to the selected block, And stores the blocks having the same shape as that of the first block designated by the first block correction module 1341 among the blocks overlapping the predetermined area, The most overlapped block can be corrected to be selected as the second block. Here, the predetermined area may have the same shape and width as the first block correction module 1341 as described above.

Also, according to an embodiment of the present invention, when there is one block having the same padding as the first block designated by the first block correction module 1341, the second block correction module 1342 converts the block into a second block If a plurality of blocks having the same padding as the first block designated by the first block correction module 1341 are to be calculated, the width of a region overlapped with a predetermined region is calculated from a plurality of blocks, , It is possible to correct the block having the largest overlap area to be selected as the second block.

Also, according to an embodiment of the present invention, when a plurality of blocks having the same padding as the first block among the blocks overlapping a certain area and the widths of the overlapped areas are also the same, The block including the coordinate information of the second selected position and the blocks adjacent to the block are scanned in a predetermined direction so that one block that satisfies the preset block selection criterion among the scanned blocks is selected as the second block Can be corrected. At this time, since the second block correction module 1342 stores blocks having the same shape as the paddle designated by the first block designated by the first block correction module 1341, It is preferable that one block satisfying the block selection criterion set in advance is selected to be selected as the second block.

Preferably, the second block correction module 1342 selects adjacent blocks based on the coordinate information of the second selected position in the state where the first block is designated by the first block correction module 1341, After setting a certain area centered on information, a block having the same shape as a padding designated as a first block among the blocks overlapped with the predetermined area is stored. If there is one stored block, the corresponding block is converted into a second block The block having the largest width is selected as the second block, and if the block having the same width of the overlapping area is selected, When there are a plurality of blocks, a block selection criterion set in advance in scanning in a predetermined direction with respect to a plurality of blocks having the same width A block existing in a satisfying order can be selected as a second block.

Even if the user can not select the center of the block at the time of selecting the second block through the correction, the block closest to the user's intention can be selected based on the coordinate information in the block, Convenience can be provided.

The matching determination module 1343 according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured such that the first block and the second block selected by the first block correction module 1341 and the second block correction module 1342 satisfy the block removal condition Or not. Here, for example, in the case of a mahjong game, a case where the shortest path connecting the first block and the second block selected by the user terminal device 300 in the game map is broken down to two or less is referred to as a first block and a second block May be removed, and different conditions may be applied in the case of other games according to the rules of the game.

The block removal module 1344 may remove the selected first block and the second block on the game map if the block removal condition is satisfied by the matching determination module 1343. [

Although the game server 130 includes four modules 131, 132, 133, and 134 in the present embodiment, the four modules may be functionally integrated or separated, The game server 130 may be composed of one or more modules instead of four. In addition, the channel management module 131 may not be used in the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and the remaining modules of the game server 130 may be installed in the user terminal 300 to be operated. In this case, if the game client and the game progress module 134 in each of the user terminal devices 300 exchange information necessary for the progress of the game and can play the game and the same game is played on the communication network with other users, 132, the player can play the game by exchanging information necessary for the game progress with another user terminal device.

3 to 7, the coordinate recognition correction method according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail.

Coordinate recognition correction method

3 is an operational flowchart for explaining a coordinate recognition correction method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, the game server 130 provides a game map including a plurality of blocks to the user terminal 300 through the communication network 200 (S101). The game server 130 may provide the game map as shown in FIG. 7 to the user terminal 300, and the blocks displayed on the provided game map may be displayed on the game terminal 300 in consideration of the screen size and resolution of the user terminal 300 Lt; / RTI >

The game server 130 receives the coordinate information of the first selected position among the plurality of blocks displayed on the game map from the user terminal 300 (S103).

Next, the game server 130 performs correction to designate the first block based on the block including the coordinate information and blocks adjacent to the block based on the received coordinate information (S200).

Referring to FIG. 4, the game server 130 determines whether there is a plurality of coordinate information of the first selected position from the user terminal 300 (S201).

If it is determined in step S201 that there is a plurality of pieces of coordinate information of the first selected position, the game server 130 calculates one piece of coordinate information by a predetermined calculation method (S202).

As a result of the determination in step S201, if there is one coordinate information of the first selected position or if one coordinate information is determined through step S202 described above, the game server 130 generates a block including the coordinate information, Blocks are selected (S203). 6, the game server 130 includes a block B including coordinate information P at a selected position through the user terminal 300 and a block B adjacent to the block B, (C) can be selected. The recognized blocks (C) are marked with a hatch. The blocks B adjacent to the block B may be blocks located in east, west, south, north, southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest based on the block B including the coordinate information.

Next, the game server 130 sets a certain area around the coordinate information (S205). In FIG. 6, a certain area A is shown as a rectangle in consideration of the coordinate information as a center and the area width of a block overlapping a certain area. However, the present invention is not limited to this, May also be employed. The size of the rectangle can be freely set, but it is preferable to set the size of the contact area to a size that the touch screen touches with a finger.

Next, the game server 130 determines whether one or more blocks among the blocks overlapping the preset area are scanned in a predetermined direction (S207).

If it is determined in step S207 that there is one block in which the tiles are overlapped with the predetermined area, the game server 130 determines that the block in which the tiles are arranged is selected as the first block regardless of the width of the overlapping areas (S208).

If it is determined in step S207 that there are a plurality of blocks in which the tiles are laid out among the blocks overlapping the predetermined area, the game server 130 calculates the width of the overlap area overlapping the predetermined area with reference to the block in which the tiles are arranged S209).

Next, the game server 130 determines whether a plurality of blocks having the same width of the calculated overlapping area exist (S211).

If it is determined in step S211 that there is no plurality of blocks having the same width of the overlapping area, the game server 130 corrects the block having the largest width of the overlapping area to be selected as the first block in step S212.

If it is determined in step S211 that there is a plurality of blocks having the same width of the overlapping area, the game server 130 sets a block selection criterion preset at the time of scanning in a predetermined direction for a plurality of blocks having the same width of the overlapping area A block existing in a satisfying order is selected to be selected as the first block (S213).

In this case, since scanning is performed while proceeding in a predetermined direction at the time of selecting the adjacent blocks and the width of the overlapping area described above, one block satisfying the block selection criterion set in advance based on the predetermined direction scanned, As shown in FIG. The predetermined direction to be scanned may be zigzag from upper left to upper and lower or up and down, but is not limited thereto.

Through such correction, when the first block is selected by the user, it is corrected to be closest to the block that is supposed to be selected by the user based on the coordinate information of the selected position among the plurality of blocks displayed on the game map, It is possible to provide convenience in block selection on the touch screen.

3, the game server 130 receives the coordinate information of the second selected position from the user terminal 300 in the state where the first block is designated (S301).

Next, the game server 130 performs correction to designate a block including the position or adjacent thereto as a second block based on the coordinate information of the second selected position (S400).

Referring to FIG. 5, in operation S400, the game server 130 determines whether there is a plurality of coordinate information of a second selected position from the user terminal 300 (S401).

If it is determined in step S401 that there is a plurality of pieces of coordinate information of the second selected position, the game server 130 calculates one piece of coordinate information by a predetermined calculation method (S402).

If it is determined in step S401 that the coordinate information of the second selected position is one, or if one coordinate information is determined in step S402, the game server 130 may include a block including the coordinate information, (S403).

Next, the game server 130 sets a certain area centered on the coordinate information (S405). It is preferable that a certain area is centered on the coordinate information and that a shape considering, for example, a rectangular area is determined for calculating the area width of a block overlapping a certain area, but other shapes can also be adopted. Preferably, the touch screen may be set to a size corresponding to a width of a touch when touching the touch screen with a finger.

Next, the game server 130 stores a block having the same shape as the paddle designated as the first block among the areas of the blocks overlapping with the predetermined constant area (S407).

Next, the game server 130 determines whether there is one or more blocks having the same shape as the stored blocks, that is, the blocks designated by the first block (S409).

If it is determined in step S409 that there is one stored block, the game server 130 corrects the selected block to be the second block (S410).

If it is determined in step S409 that there is a plurality of stored blocks, the game server 130 calculates the width of the overlap area with a plurality of blocks and a predetermined area (S411).

Next, the game server 130 determines whether there is a plurality of blocks having the same width of the calculated overlapping area (S413).

If it is determined in step S413 that there is not a plurality of blocks having the same width of the overlapping area, the game server 130 corrects the block having the largest width of the overlapping area to be selected as the second block (S414).

If it is determined in step S413 that there is a plurality of blocks having the same width of the overlapping area, the game server 130 determines the order of satisfying the block selection criterion preset when scanning in a predetermined direction on a plurality of blocks having the same width Is selected to be the second block (S415). Since the predetermined direction and the block selection criterion have been described above, the description thereof will be omitted.

Through such a correction, the user can be provided with convenience in selecting the second block.

When the first block is selected by the user, the block is corrected to be closest to the block that is supposed to be selected by the user based on the coordinate information of the selected position among the plurality of blocks displayed on the game map, Can be provided.

If the first block and the second block are selected in FIG. 3 through FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the game server 130 determines whether the block removal condition is satisfied (S501). For example, in the case of a mahjong game, the block removal condition is a condition that the first block and the second block are removed when the shortest path connecting the first block and the second block selected by the user terminal device 300 is broken down to 2 or less However, in the case of other games, different block removal conditions may be applied according to the rules of the game.

If it is determined in step S501 that the block removal condition is satisfied, the game server 130 removes the first block and the second block on the game map (S503). If it is determined in step S501 that the block removal condition is not satisfied, the game server 130 terminates the process. In this embodiment, the process is terminated when the block removal condition is not satisfied. However, the game server 130 may provide at least one of a message informing the discrepancy between the first block and the second block and a warning sound, The process can be moved to step S103 for selecting the first block again.

As described above, a game map for an online game, particularly a mah-jong game, is provided to provide a user with convenience in selecting a block through a correction at a first selected position and a correction at a second selected position.

Hereinafter, a coordinate recognition correction method according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described.

8 is a flowchart illustrating an operation for explaining a coordinate recognition correction method according to another embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 8, the game server 130 receives coordinate information of a selected position from a user terminal 300 (not shown) (S601). At this time, the user terminal 300 may be provided with a touch screen, and the touch point on the touch screen may be coordinate information of the selected position. In this embodiment, a method of performing correction for a touch point on a touch screen will be described. However, the method is not limited to this, and correction can be performed even when arbitrary coordinates are selected through an input means such as a keyboard or a mouse.

Next, the game server 130 determines whether there are a plurality of pieces of coordinate information of the selected position from the user terminal device 300 (S603).

If it is determined in step S603 that there are a plurality of pieces of coordinate information of the selected position from the user terminal 300, the game server 130 applies one or more pieces of coordinate information to a predetermined calculation method to determine one piece of coordinate information S602).

If it is determined in step S603 that the coordinate information of the selected location is not a plurality of coordinates from the user terminal 300, the game server 130 may include the coordinate information of the selected location or the one coordinate information determined in step S602 And regions adjacent to the region are selected (S605). At this time, the touch screen of the user terminal device 300 may be constantly divided into a plurality of areas, and execution information may be included in a plurality of areas. The adjacent areas may be located in east, west, south, north, southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest based on the area containing the coordinate information of the selected location.

Next, the game server 130 sets a certain area centered on the coordinate information (S607). The predetermined region may be defined as a region having a space spaced apart from the coordinate information by a predetermined distance based on the coordinate information.

Next, the game server 130 calculates the width of the overlap area between the predetermined areas and the predetermined area (S609).

Next, the game server 130 corrects the area having the largest width of the overlap area, that is, the overlapped area, as the user selection area, among the calculated overlap areas (S611).

Through such a correction, even if the center of an arbitrary area can not be selected on the touch screen, the execution information of the corresponding area closest to the intention of the user can be executed only by receiving the coordinate information within an arbitrary area, It is possible to provide convenience in menu selection.

The above function may be performed in the user terminal device 300 by providing the related module to the user terminal device 300 rather than through communication between the game server 130 and the user terminal device 300. [
