Game Stance Control via Continuous Operation Amount

The patent applies dynamics by making the player character's stance continuous and adjustable rather than fixed. The stance control module dynamically adjusts the stance variation parameter based on user operation amount, allowing the player character to transition smoothly between various stances (crouching, standing, jumping, etc.) rather than being restricted to discrete predetermined stances. This enables versatile action adaptation while maintaining relatively simple control through continuous parameter adjustment.

The patent changes the stance parameter from discrete values to continuous variation. By introducing a stance variation parameter that can take any value within a range based on user operation amount, the system achieves diverse player character actions without requiring complex control logic for each discrete stance. The stance is determined by combining reference stance data with stance variation data, creating a flexible parameter-based control system.

The patent makes the single operation unit serve multiple functions: it controls both player character movement and stance variation. By using the operation amount from the same input device for both movement direction and stance adjustment, the system achieves multi-functionality without requiring additional control inputs. This universal control approach increases stance variation while maintaining operational simplicity.

The patent merges the control of movement and stance adjustment into a single operation system. The operation amount detected from the user's input is simultaneously used to determine both the movement direction and the stance variation, combining what would traditionally require separate controls into one unified operation mechanism. This reduces operational complexity while achieving diverse stance variations.
