Technical Field

Background

Many game applications that construct virtual scenes currently have a function of controlling the movement of virtual objects.

The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with aspects of the application as detailed in the accompanying claims.

Virtual scene: is a virtual scene that an application displays (or provides) while running on a terminal. The virtual scene can be a simulation environment scene of a real world, a half-simulation half-fictional three-dimensional environment scene, or a pure fictional three-dimensional environment scene. The virtual scene may be any one of a two-dimensional virtual scene, a 2.5-dimensional virtual scene, and a three-dimensional virtual scene, and the following embodiments are exemplified by the virtual scene being a three-dimensional virtual scene, but are not limited thereto. Optionally, the virtual scene may also be used for virtual scene fight between at least two virtual characters. Optionally, the virtual scene may also be used to fight between at least two virtual characters using a virtual firearm. Optionally, the virtual scene may be further operable to use the virtual firearm to fight between at least two virtual characters within a target area range that is continuously smaller over time in the virtual scene.

Virtual object: refers to movable objects in a virtual scene. The movable object may be at least one of a virtual character, a virtual animal, a virtual vehicle. Alternatively, when the virtual scene is a three-dimensional virtual scene, the virtual object is a three-dimensional stereoscopic model created based on an animated skeleton technique. Each virtual object has its own shape, volume, and orientation in the three-dimensional virtual scene and occupies a portion of the space in the three-dimensional virtual scene.

Virtual scenes are typically presented by application generation in a computer device such as a terminal based on hardware (such as a screen) in the terminal. The terminal can be a mobile terminal such as a smart phone, a tablet computer or an electronic book reader; alternatively, the terminal may be a notebook computer or a personal computer device of a stationary computer.

Referring to fig. 1, a schematic structural diagram of a terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 1, the terminal includes a main board 110, an external input/output device 120, a memory 130, an external interface 140, a touch system 150, and a power supply 160.

Wherein, the motherboard 110 has integrated therein processing elements such as a processor and a controller.

The external input/output device 120 may include a display component (such as a display screen), a sound playing component (such as a speaker), a sound collecting component (such as a microphone), various types of keys, and the like.

The memory 130 has stored therein program codes and data.

The external interface 140 may include a headset interface, a charging interface, a data interface, and the like.

The touch system 150 may be integrated in a display component or key of the external input/output device 120, and the touch system 150 is used to detect a touch operation performed by a user on the display component or key.

The power supply 160 is used to power the other various components in the terminal.

In an embodiment of the present application, the processor in the motherboard 110 may generate a virtual scene by executing or calling program codes and data stored in the memory, and present the generated virtual scene through the external output/input device 120. In the process of displaying the virtual scene, the capacitive touch system 150 can detect the touch operation performed when the user interacts with the virtual scene.

The virtual scene may be a three-dimensional virtual scene, or the virtual scene may be a two-dimensional virtual scene. Taking an example that the virtual scene is a three-dimensional virtual scene, please refer to fig. 2, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a display interface of the virtual scene provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, the display interface of the virtual scene includes a scene screen 200, and the scene screen 200 includes a virtual object 210 currently controlled, an environment screen 220 of the three-dimensional virtual scene, and a virtual object 240. Wherein, the virtual object 240 may be a virtual object controlled by a corresponding user of other terminals or a virtual object controlled by an application program.

In fig. 2, the currently controlled virtual object 210 and the virtual object 240 are three-dimensional models in a three-dimensional virtual scene, and an environmental screen of the three-dimensional virtual scene displayed in the scene screen 200 is an object observed from a perspective of the currently controlled virtual object 210, and as illustrated in fig. 2, an environmental screen 220 of the three-dimensional virtual scene displayed under the perspective of the currently controlled virtual object 210 is the ground 224, the sky 225, the horizon 223, the hill 221, and the factory building 222, for example.

The currently controlled virtual object 210 may be moved instantaneously under the control of the user. For example, the screen of the terminal supports touch operation, and the scene picture 200 of the virtual scene contains a virtual control, so that when the user touches the virtual control, the virtual object 210 currently controlled can move in the virtual scene.

In the embodiment of the application, the virtual object which is currently controlled can move under the control of the terminal and execute operations such as specified actions.

For example, please refer to fig. 3, which illustrates a schematic diagram of a virtual object control flow in a virtual scene according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 3, a terminal running an application program corresponding to the virtual scene (such as the terminal shown in fig. 1) may control the virtual object in the virtual scene to move by performing the following steps.

Step 31, displaying a display interface of an application program, wherein the display interface comprises a scene picture of a virtual scene, and the scene picture comprises a first virtual object; the first virtual object is at least one other virtual object than the second virtual object controlled by the terminal.

Step 32, in the display interface, displaying a first trigger control corresponding to each candidate virtual object in the first virtual object; the respective candidate virtual objects are all or part of the first virtual object.

And step 33, determining target virtual objects in the candidate virtual objects according to the triggering operation of the first triggering control which is respectively displayed for the candidate virtual objects.

Step 34, controlling the second virtual object to automatically move to the specified relative position of the target virtual object.

Alternatively, the specified relative position may be a certain position with respect to the target virtual object. For example, the specified relative position of the target virtual object may be the back or side of the target virtual object, and so on.

In the embodiment of the application, when the terminal displays the scene picture of the virtual scene, the trigger control can be displayed corresponding to other virtual objects on the scene picture, and when the user clicks the trigger control, the terminal can determine the target virtual object according to the trigger operation of the user and automatically control the current virtual object (namely the second virtual object) to move to the vicinity of the target virtual object, for example, automatically control the current virtual object to move to the back of the target virtual object. In automatically controlling the current virtual object to move to the vicinity of the target virtual object, the user is not required to perform other control operations.

Alternatively, the controlling the second virtual object to automatically move to the specified relative position of the target virtual object may be controlling the second virtual object to directly appear at the specified relative position.

Optionally, the second virtual object is controlled to move to the designated relative position of the target virtual object at a target speed, where the target speed is greater than the moving speed of the second virtual object under the control of the virtual rocker.

The virtual rocker is a virtual control for receiving a manual control operation, and the manual control operation is an operation for controlling the moving direction of the second virtual object.

For example, please refer to fig. 4, which illustrates a display interface schematic diagram of a virtual scene according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 4, the virtual scene display interface 40 includes a scene screen 41 and at least one main virtual control 42 (two virtual controls are shown in fig. 4), where the scene screen 41 includes a virtual object 41a that is currently controlled, and a virtual object 41b that is controlled by another terminal or artificial intelligence. The user can control the currently controlled virtual object 41a to move in the virtual scene or perform a specified action through the main virtual control 42. When the user controls the virtual object 41a to move through the main virtual control 42, the virtual object 41a moves at a first speed. And when the user controls the virtual object 41a to automatically move to the virtual object 41b through the first trigger control displayed corresponding to the virtual object 41b, the terminal will control the virtual object 41a to move to the body side of the virtual object 41b at the second speed. Wherein the second speed is greater than the first speed.

In summary, the solution shown in the embodiment of the present application displays, by displaying a display interface of an application program, a first trigger control corresponding to each candidate virtual object in a first virtual object in the display interface, then performs a trigger operation on the first trigger control displayed by each candidate virtual object, determines a target virtual object in each candidate virtual object, and then controls a second virtual object to automatically move to a specified relative position of the target virtual object, thereby implementing automatic control of movement of the virtual object to another virtual object according to operation of a user in a scene interface of a virtual scene, improving flexibility of control of the virtual object, improving movement efficiency of the virtual object in the virtual scene, and further saving electric quantity and data flow consumed by a terminal.

Referring to fig. 5, a method flowchart of a virtual object control method in a virtual scene according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 5, a terminal running an application program corresponding to the virtual scene (e.g., the terminal shown in fig. 1) may control movement of a virtual object in the virtual scene, perform a specified action, and the like by performing the following steps.

Step 501, a terminal displays a display interface of an application program, wherein the display interface comprises a scene picture of a virtual scene, and the scene picture comprises a first virtual object; the first virtual object is at least one other virtual object than the second virtual object controlled by the terminal.

For example, please refer to fig. 6, which illustrates a display interface diagram according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 6, the virtual scene display interface 60 includes a scene screen 61, a first virtual object 62, and a second virtual object 63. Wherein the first virtual object 62 may be a virtual object controlled by other users or a virtual object controlled by an application (such as artificial intelligence), the first virtual object 62 may be one or more virtual objects. The second virtual object 63 may be a virtual object controlled by a current user, the second virtual object 63 may be moved to a designated position controlled by the user, and the second virtual object 63 may perform an attack or the like on the first virtual object 62.

In step 502, the terminal determines, as each candidate virtual object, a virtual object whose distance from the second virtual object is smaller than a specified distance threshold value from among the first virtual objects.

In the embodiment of the application, the specified distance threshold may be a preset fixed distance value, the terminal uses the second virtual object controlled by the current user as a circle center, uses the specified distance threshold as a radius to make a circle, and the first virtual object in the circle or on the circle may be determined as the candidate virtual object.

For example, please refer to fig. 7, which illustrates a schematic diagram of determining candidate virtual objects according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 7, a circular area range 73 is obtained with the second virtual object 71 as a center and the specified distance threshold 72 as a radius, and the terminal detects that four first virtual objects, namely, an a virtual object 74a, a b virtual object 74b, a c virtual object 74c and a D virtual object 74D exist in the scene. The C virtual object 74C and the D virtual object 74D are within the circular area 73, and the a virtual object 74a and the B virtual object 74B are outside the circular area 73, and the terminal can confirm that the C virtual object 74C and the D virtual object 74D within the circular area 73 are candidate virtual objects.

And step 503, the terminal displays a second trigger control in an overlapping manner in the display interface.

In the embodiment of the application, the second trigger control is a virtual control used for switching the movement and attack modes of the second virtual object. Wherein the second trigger control may be one or more.

The second trigger control may be displayed according to a preset condition. For example, the second trigger control is not displayed in the display interface in an overlaid manner at the beginning. And when the terminal detects that the second virtual object currently controlled meets the preset condition, displaying the second trigger control.

Optionally, when the second virtual object has the specified virtual prop, the second trigger control is displayed in an overlaid manner in the display interface.

For example, in one possible implementation, when the second virtual object has a specified virtual prop, the terminal superimposes and displays a second trigger control in the display interface, where the second trigger control is used to switch the movement mode of the second virtual object.

For example, please refer to fig. 8, which illustrates a second trigger control display interface according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 8, when the second virtual object 83 controlled by the user obtains the designated virtual prop and the designated prop is a virtual dagger, a second trigger control 84 is added to the display interface 80 of the current virtual scene, in addition to the scene picture 81, the first virtual object 82 and the second virtual object 83, where the second trigger control 84 is used to control the movement mode of the second virtual object 83 and execute the attack action on the target use dagger.

And step 504, when receiving the triggering operation of the second triggering control, displaying one first triggering control corresponding to each candidate virtual object in the display interface.

The execution sequence of the steps 502 and 503 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. For example, the above step 502 may be performed before step 503, that is, the terminal may continuously determine and update the candidate virtual object; alternatively, the step 502 may be performed after the step 503, that is, the terminal may determine the candidate virtual object after displaying the second trigger control; alternatively, the step 502 may be performed after receiving the triggering operation of the second triggering control and before displaying the first triggering control.

In the embodiment of the application, the first trigger control may be located above each candidate virtual object, and the first trigger control is used for selecting the target virtual object.

For example, please refer to fig. 9, which illustrates a first trigger control display interface according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 9, when the terminal receives the triggering operation of the user on the second triggering control 94, it may be determined according to the specified distance threshold that the a virtual object 92a and the B virtual object 92B are not in the circular area range 95, the C virtual object 92C and the D virtual object 92D are candidate virtual objects, and one first triggering control 96 is displayed above the corresponding positions of the C virtual object 92C and the D virtual object 92D respectively.

And 505, the terminal determines the target virtual object in each candidate virtual object according to the triggering operation of the first triggering control which is respectively displayed for each candidate virtual object.

In the embodiment of the application, the target virtual object may be the only one virtual object, or the target virtual object may also be at least one virtual object (such as two or more virtual objects).

Alternatively, when the target virtual object is only one virtual object, the target virtual object may be a candidate virtual object corresponding to a single first trigger control that receives the trigger operation.

The user can select one first trigger control from the first trigger controls displayed by the terminal to trigger, and accordingly, the terminal selects the candidate virtual object corresponding to the first trigger control as the target virtual object.

For example, in fig. 9, if the user selects only the first trigger control corresponding to the C virtual object 92C, the terminal determines the C virtual object 92C as the target virtual object.

Optionally, the target virtual object includes at least two virtual objects, where the at least two virtual objects are candidate virtual objects corresponding to at least two first trigger controls that receive the trigger operation respectively.

For example, the user may perform a triggering operation on the plurality of first triggering controls in the first triggering controls displayed by the terminal, and correspondingly, the terminal selects, according to the user operation, candidate virtual objects corresponding to the plurality of first triggering controls as the target virtual objects.

For example, in fig. 9, if the user selects the first trigger controls corresponding to the C virtual object 92C and the D virtual object 92D, respectively, the terminal determines both the C virtual object 92C and the D virtual object 92D as target virtual objects.

Step 506, controlling the second virtual object to automatically move to the specified relative position of the target virtual object.

In the embodiment of the application, after the user selects the target virtual object, the terminal controls the second virtual object to move to the position where the target virtual object is located.

When the target virtual object is the only one of the candidate virtual objects, the terminal controls the second virtual object to directly move to the position of the target virtual object; and when the target virtual object comprises at least two candidate virtual objects, the second virtual object can be sequentially moved according to the sequence of the triggering operation of the first triggering control by the user.

For example, as shown in fig. 9, when the user performs a trigger operation on the first trigger control 96 corresponding to the D virtual object 92D and then performs a trigger operation on the first trigger control 96 corresponding to the C virtual object 92C, the terminal may control the second virtual object 93 to move to the position corresponding to the D virtual object 92D and then to the position corresponding to the C virtual object 92C. When the user performs the triggering operation only on the first triggering control 96 corresponding to the C virtual object 92C, the second virtual object directly moves to the position corresponding to the C virtual object 92C.

Optionally, when controlling the second virtual object to automatically move to the specified relative position of the target virtual object, the terminal further controls the second virtual object to execute the specified operation on the target virtual object.

Wherein the specified operation may be an attack operation or the like.

In step 507, if the number of times the second virtual object moves does not reach the number threshold, a new target virtual object is determined, where the new target virtual object is a virtual object within a preset range around the second virtual object.

The number of times of the movement refers to the number of times that the terminal controls the movement of the second virtual object after the user executes the triggering operation on the first triggering control. The terminal controls the second virtual object to move to the appointed relative position of one target virtual object, and the terminal is regarded as controlling the second virtual object to move once.

In the embodiment of the present application, the frequency threshold may be a frequency preset by an application program, where the frequency threshold specifies a maximum value of the number of times that the second virtual object may move using the virtual prop.

Alternatively, the number of times threshold value may be determined by the kind of virtual prop used by the second virtual object.

For example, when the virtual prop is a virtual dagger, the number of times threshold may be set to 4 times, and when the virtual prop is a virtual short sword, the number of times threshold may be set to 3 times.

For example, when the second virtual object 71 shown in fig. 7 moves to the positions corresponding to the second virtual object 74d and the second virtual object 74c in sequence, and attacks on the second virtual object 74d and the second virtual object 74c using the virtual props, and finally stays at the corresponding positions of the second virtual object 74c, the second virtual object moves twice in total, and when the virtual props used are virtual daggers, the number of times threshold is set to 4, and the number of times the second virtual object moves this time is twice and is smaller than the number of times threshold, at this time, the terminal can confirm the new target virtual object. Referring to fig. 10, a schematic diagram of a determination target virtual object according to an embodiment of the application is shown. As shown in fig. 10, a circular area range 1003 is obtained by detecting a first virtual object within a preset range around a second virtual object 1001, centering around the second virtual object 1001, and centering around a specified distance threshold 1002, detecting that a B virtual object 1004B is located in the circular area range 1003, and determining that a new target virtual object is the B virtual object 1004B.

Step 508, controlling the second virtual object to automatically move to the specified relative position of the new target virtual object.

In the embodiment of the application, when the new target virtual object is at least two virtual objects, the second virtual object is controlled to sequentially move to the appointed relative positions of the at least two virtual objects.

Optionally, when the second virtual object moves to the new target virtual object, the second virtual object may move in the order from the near to the far of the target virtual object from the second virtual object, or may move in the order in which the user selects the first trigger control corresponding to the target virtual object.

Optionally, when the second virtual object moves to the position of the corresponding target virtual object, the viewing angle direction of the display interface is the viewing angle direction of the second virtual object.

Wherein the viewing angle direction is a direction in which the virtual object is observed by a camera model located over a rear portion of the virtual object in the virtual scene.

The scene screen in the display interface may be a screen when a virtual object (such as a virtual character or a virtual carrier) in the virtual scene is observed in a certain view angle direction in the virtual scene, and the view angle direction is a direction when the virtual object is observed in the virtual scene through a camera model.

The camera model is a three-dimensional model located around the virtual object in the virtual scene. When the first person perspective is employed, the camera model is located at a viewing location of the virtual object, such as near or within the cockpit of the virtual vehicle when the virtual object is a virtual vehicle, and near or within the head of the virtual character when the virtual object is a virtual character. When a third person viewing angle is adopted, the camera model can be positioned behind the virtual object and bound with the virtual object, and can also be positioned at any position with a preset distance from the virtual object, and the virtual object in the virtual scene can be observed from different angles through the camera model. Optionally, the camera model is not actually displayed in the virtual scene, i.e. the camera model cannot be recognized in the virtual scene displayed by the user interface.

Describing the camera model as being located at any position at a preset distance from the virtual object, optionally, one virtual object corresponds to one camera model, and the camera model may rotate with the virtual object as a rotation center, for example: the camera model is rotated by taking any point of the virtual object as a rotation center, the camera model rotates in an angle and also shifts in a displacement in the rotation process, and the distance between the camera model and the rotation center is kept unchanged during rotation, namely, the camera model rotates on the surface of a sphere taking the rotation center as a sphere center, wherein any point of the virtual object can be a virtual object or any point around the virtual object, for example, any point of the virtual object can be any point around the center of a cabin, a front seat, a rear seat or a virtual object of a virtual carrier, or any point of the virtual object can be any point around the head, the trunk or the virtual character of a virtual character, and the embodiment of the application is not limited to the above. Optionally, when the camera model observes the virtual object, the view angle direction of the camera model is that the perpendicular on the tangent plane of the sphere where the camera model is located points to the direction of the virtual object.

Optionally, the camera model may also observe the virtual object at a preset angle in different directions of the virtual object.

Referring to fig. 11, a schematic diagram of a camera model according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. A point in the virtual object 111 is determined as a center of rotation 112 around which the camera model rotates, optionally configured with an initial position that is a position posterior and superior to the virtual object (e.g. a posterior position of the brain). Schematically, as shown in fig. 11, the initial position is position 113, and when the camera model is rotated to position 114 or position 115, the viewing angle direction of the camera model is changed with the rotation of the camera model.

In fig. 11, the virtual object is exemplified as a virtual character object, and in the embodiment of the present application, the virtual object 111 may be a virtual carrier in a virtual scene, or may be any other virtual object that may be controlled by a user, such as a virtual animal.

Referring to fig. 12, a flowchart of controlling movement of a virtual object and performing an attack in a virtual scene according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 12, the flow of controlling the virtual object to move and perform the attack action in the virtual scene may be as follows:

s121, when the current weapon of the virtual object controlled by the user has instantaneous attack skills, the user uses the instantaneous attack skills through the trigger control.

And S122, after the user triggers the control to use the instantaneous attack skill, the terminal judges whether a target object exists in the detection range of the virtual object controlled by the current user.

And S123, if judging that the target object does not exist in the detection range of the virtual object controlled by the current user, canceling the use of the instantaneous attack skill by the terminal.

And S124, if the target object exists in the detection range of the virtual object controlled by the current user, displaying a control which can be triggered and selected at the position of the terminal on the target object head in the detection range.

S125, the terminal judges whether the user triggers any one of the position display controls on the target object head in the detection range. If the trigger is not generated, waiting for the user to perform the trigger operation, and then executing the next step.

And S126, after the user triggers the control displayed at the position on the head of the target object, under the control of the terminal, the virtual object controlled by the user instantaneously moves to the position of the target object corresponding to the control triggered first according to the sequence of triggering the control, and attacks the target object.

S127, under the control of the terminal, the virtual objects controlled by the user sequentially and instantly move to the positions of the target objects in sequence and attack the target objects.

And S128, the terminal judges whether the current attack quantity of the target object reaches the preset attack quantity upper limit, if so, the transient attack is stopped and the virtual object controlled by the user stays at the current position.

S129, if the current attack quantity of the target object does not reach the preset upper limit of the attack quantity, the terminal judges whether the target object can be selected in the detection range of the position of the virtual object controlled by the current user. If the fact that the target object can be selected in the detection range of the position of the virtual object controlled by the current user is judged, the transient attack operation is continued until the fact that no target object can be selected in the detection range of the position of the virtual object controlled by the current user is judged.

S1210, if the terminal judges that no target object can be selected in the detection range of the position of the virtual object controlled by the current user, the transient attack action is stopped, and the virtual object controlled by the user stays at the position of the target object of the final transient attack.

S1211, the terminal ends the use of the transient attack skill, and the virtual object controlled by the user is restored to a state before the use of the skill.

According to the scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, in the virtual scene of the game, the user can trigger the current virtual object to move instantaneously or quickly to the vicinity of other virtual objects and execute the attack action by selecting the trigger control on the top of the other virtual objects, so that the control efficiency of the movement and attack of the virtual objects is greatly improved, the game duration can be greatly shortened, and the electric quantity and the data flow consumed by the terminal are saved.
