Universal game state control system and method

Abstract

The invention discloses a universal game state control system and method. The system comprises a behavior relation storer, a configuration file converter, a behavior state manager and a logic processor. The method includes that game behavior rules that can be edited in a user-defined mode and predefined behavior state test function fields are stored and then converted into configuration files that can be directly loaded by a Lua script engine of a game program, the Lua script engine of the game program is called to analyze configuration files that are output by the configuration file converter, game behaviors, behavior state functions and behavior state test function ports that are already configured are recognized and managed, a logical relationship between to-be-tested behaviors and about-to-happen behaviors is determined, and a behavioral control command is output. The universal game state control system and method has the advantages that a behavior description table is merely required to be modified and then a game is restarted so that newly modified game behaviors and logics can directly come into effect, thereby, the game developing efficiency is greatly increased, and the conditions of program errors caused by human code modification can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the application field of computer games, in particular to a general game state control system and method. Background technique [0002] In traditional role-playing games, the behavioral state design of player characters is usually implemented in a hard-coded way. For example, when only attacking and walking are dealt with initially, the behavior of the avatar is described as: it can attack while walking, but cannot walk while attacking. In order to restrict the player to operate the character to walk when attacking, the usual practice is to add the following program judgment code: [0003] Function bool move() [0004] { [0005] If(is in attack) [0006] Msg("can't walk"); [0007] Return false. [0008] Else [0009] / / todo: walk [0010] Return true; [0011]} [0012] The disadvantage of this conditional structure is that when more behaviors and logical judgments are added, the entire code needs to...

Problems solved by technology

To control these behaviors and deal with their logic, such as prohibiting most of the player's behaviors when the player dies and only allowing resurrection-related behaviors, a large number of complex logic processing is required, and a little carelessness of game developers when writing code will cause Program bugs that lead to disordered behavior of game characters
