The information processing apparatus has a storage unit configured to store service-related information concerning the service provided by the vehicle, and a controller configured to select any of a first mode, in which the service power supply and the driving power supply are independently used, and a second mode, in which the service power supply and the driving power supply are shared, based on the service-related information.

Abstract: A first appearance region for a first group is set at or near a center of a game stage. A second and a third appearance region for a second and a third group are set closer to respective end portions of the game stage than the first appearance region is. A character is caused to perform an action more advantageously in a game when the character is in a region rendered in a color relating to the group to which the character belongs than when the character is not in the region. It is determined that the first group is a winner in a game when a first condition is satisfied based on actions performed by the characters, and that the second and third groups are a winner in the game when a second condition is satisfied based on actions performed by the characters.

Abstract: An information processing program contained in a non-transitory storage medium is executed by a computer of a first user terminal 30 among a plurality of networkable user terminals 30. The information processing program causes the computer to function as: string setting means 33 for setting an arbitrary string specified by a first user in association with the first user; status information acquisition means 34 for executing a specified application and, while executing the specified application, acquiring status information that is sent from second terminal of second user for whom the same string set in association with the first user is set and indicates a status of the specified application being executed on the second terminal; and notification presentation means 35 for presenting a notification based on the acquired status information to the first user.

Abstract: A program that causes a computer to execute an application based on communication between/among a plurality of users causes the computer to function as first game execution means for executing a first game that increases a first parameter, second game execution means for executing a second game when an execution condition is satisfied, and determination means for determining whether or not there is a record of a second application. When the first parameter is in a prescribed state or when there is a record, the execution condition is determined as being satisfied.

Abstract: In an example of an information processing system, in a case where a user character is present on an area in a first state on a wall surface, and while an input to an operation button is continued, the user character is caused to perform a preliminary action, and if at least the input to the operation button ends, the user character is moved to a boundary between the area in the first state and another area on the wall surface. If the user character reaches the boundary, the user character is caused to jump from the boundary.

Abstract: An information processing system includes a controller which receives an operation input of a user and an information processing unit which performs an information process based on the operation input received by the controller. The information processing unit includes a game progress unit which controls an own character in the virtual space based on the operation input of the user to draw the virtual space with the corresponding color of the own character and a battle determination unit which performs a battle determination based on a drawing state of a corresponding color of an enemy character, which is different from the corresponding color of the own character, to a virtual space and a drawing state of the corresponding color of the own character to the virtual space.

Abstract: A competitive game in which a user and an opponent participate is executed, and a rating based on a match record of the competitive game is stored. When an update condition that, after last update, the user wins the competitive game a predetermined number of times that is two or more or the user loses the competitive game a predetermined number of times that is two or more, is satisfied, a temporary change amount of a rating parameter is calculated on the basis of a match record of each competitive game until the update condition is satisfied this time after the last update. If the temporary change amount is equal to or larger than a predetermined threshold, the temporary change amount is determined as a change amount of the rating parameter, and if the temporary change amount is less than the predetermined threshold, the threshold is determined as a change amount of the rating parameter, and the rating is updated.
