发明名称 Enhanced system and method for dynamically connecting virtual space entities
摘要 A system and method for connecting virtual space entities are disclosed. Information regarding virtual space entities may be obtained. The obtained information may include information indicating one or more actions and/or effects associated with the virtual space entities. The associated effects may indicate the associated actions may be caused in the virtual space by actions of other virtual space entities. Users may be enabled to specify action connections between actions of different virtual space entities. The user specified action connections may provide causal relationships between a first action and a first effect associated with a second action. Occurrence of the first action within a given instance of virtual space may be determined. Based on the user specified action connections, the first effect may be executed to cause the second action to be performed in the virtual space.

主权项 1. A system configured to connect entities present in an instance of a virtual space, the system comprising: one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to: register information regarding individual virtual space entities present in the instance of the virtual space, the virtual space comprising a simulated space having a topography, the topography describing a surface that runs through at least a substantial portion of the virtual space, the topography including surface features of the surface, the virtual space including virtual space entities positioned within the topography that are capable of locomotion within the topography, the virtual space expressing ongoing real-time interaction by users of the virtual space, the registered information indicating actions and/or effects for the individual virtual space entities, the registered information including: information indicating a first action associated with a first virtual space entity, the first action being an action performed on the first virtual space entity by a second virtual space entity, the second virtual space entity being associated with a user of the virtual space;information indicating a first effect associated with a third virtual space entity; andwherein the first virtual space entity and third virtual space entity are not associated with the user;obtain user specified action connections between virtual space entities and register the user specified action connections, the obtained action connections specifying causal relationships between actions and effects, wherein the obtained action connections include a first action connection between the first action and the first effect;receive information indicating one or more actions that have occurred in the virtual space;detect occurrences of actions specified in action connections in the virtual space by comparing the actions indicated by the received information with the actions specified in the user specified action connections; and generate commands for effects to be executed in the virtual space, such that responsive to a detection that the first action has been performed on the first virtual space entity by the second virtual space entity within the virtual space, generate a command for the first effect by the third virtual space entity to be executed in the virtual space.
