With reference to the above noun brief introduction and description of implementation environment, a method for operating a virtual throwing object according to an embodiment of the present application is described, referring to fig. 3, which shows a flowchart of a method for operating a virtual throwing object according to an exemplary embodiment, and the method is described by taking the method as an example when applied to a terminal, and the method includes:

step 301, displaying a virtual object of the handheld virtual throwing object.

And the terminal displays a virtual environment interface, wherein the virtual environment interface comprises a picture for observing the virtual environment based on the visual angle of the virtual object. Optionally, the picture is a picture for observing the virtual environment at a first person perspective of the virtual object, or a picture for observing the virtual environment at a third person perspective of virtual awakening. The user can control the virtual objects in the virtual environment through the terminal to implement various activities in the virtual environment through the virtual objects, including but not limited to: the virtual object may be a simulated character or an animated character by adjusting at least one of body posture, crawling, walking, running, riding, jumping, driving, skill use, and attack.

The virtual object is in a virtual environment, the virtual object possessing a virtual projectile. Illustratively, the virtual throwing object may be obtained by picking up a virtual object from a virtual environment, or may be obtained by equipping the virtual object in a preset interface before entering the virtual environment, where the virtual object entering the virtual environment carries the virtual throwing object. In one example, as shown in fig. 4, before starting a virtual match, a user enters an equipment interface 400, a virtual item list 410 is displayed in the equipment interface 400, the virtual item list 410 includes a plurality of virtual items that can be equipped by a virtual object, including the virtual throwing object 411, the user can select the virtual throwing object 411 from the virtual item list 410 and equip the virtual throwing object 411 to a virtual object corresponding to a user account through an equipment control 420, and when the user controls the virtual object to enter the virtual match, the virtual object carries the virtual throwing object 411.

The virtual throwing object is a prop which displays a virtual obstacle in a virtual environment after being thrown, wherein the virtual throwing object can display the virtual obstacle when the throwing time reaches a preset time length, or can display the virtual obstacle when a collision event exists in the virtual environment after being thrown. In the embodiment of the application, the virtual throwing prop can realize both tactical effect and combat effect.

Optionally, the virtual throwing object may be a prop thrown to the ground in the virtual environment, may also be a prop thrown to a designated location, and may also be a prop thrown to any other location. Illustratively, the virtual projectile may be thrown in a virtual environment on any one of a virtual floor, a virtual desktop, a surface of a virtual object, and the like.

In the embodiment of the application, the virtual object of the handheld virtual throwing object is displayed through the terminal. Illustratively, when the virtual throwing object is in a pre-equipped state (the virtual throwing object display equipment is arranged at the waist position of the virtual object), the virtual throwing object is switched to an equipped state through the throwing object equipment control/shortcut key, namely, the virtual object holding the virtual throwing object is displayed in the virtual environment picture. When the virtual throwing object is in the virtual backpack, a user can display a virtual object of the handheld virtual throwing object after using and operating the virtual throwing object in a backpack interface corresponding to the virtual backpack; or the virtual throwing object is switched to an equipment state through a virtual throwing object switching control on the virtual environment interface.

Optionally, the virtual throwing object may trigger the target function when the thrown duration reaches the preset duration, or may trigger the target function when the virtual throwing object is thrown and there is a collision condition, where the target function is triggered when the thrown duration reaches the preset duration is described as an example. Optionally, the thrown duration is divided into two phases: the method comprises a pre-throwing stage and a throwing stage, wherein the pre-throwing stage refers to a stage that a virtual object holds a virtual throwing object in hand and determines the throwing direction of the virtual throwing object, the throwing stage refers to a stage that the virtual throwing object is thrown to a corresponding position and triggers a target function after the virtual object throws the virtual throwing object along the throwing direction, and the thrown duration can be timed from the starting time of the pre-throwing stage or the starting time of the throwing stage.

Step 302, receive a pre-cast operation.

The pre-cast operation is used for casting and aiming a virtual throwing object in a virtual environment. The pre-throwing operation corresponds to the pre-throwing stage in the throwing duration, that is, when the user determines to throw the virtual throwing object in the current throwing direction through the pre-throwing operation, the virtual throwing object has a falling point position in the virtual environment, the falling point position can be a virtual ground, a virtual wall, the surface of a virtual object and the like in the virtual environment, and the falling point position and the position triggering the virtual throwing object can be the same or different. The user can prejudge the target position of the virtual throwing object triggering function based on the drop point position.

Illustratively, after receiving the pre-throwing operation, the user can also cancel the throwing aiming of the virtual throwing object through the throwing canceling operation, and the virtual throwing object is not consumed.

The pre-throwing operation and the throwing canceling operation can be realized through a preset control and can also be realized through a preset shortcut key, and the limitation is not carried out.

Step 303, displaying the trajectory indication information of the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment based on the pre-throwing operation.

The trajectory indication information is used to indicate a flight trajectory of the virtual projectile in the virtual environment. Illustratively, the throwing indication information is determined by the corresponding throwing direction and throwing angle of the virtual throwing object under the pre-throwing operation. In one example, the trajectory indication information is displayed in a virtual parabola of a preset transparency in the virtual environment.

Illustratively, the drop point indication information of the virtual throwing object is determined through the track indication information, and the drop point indication information is used for indicating the drop point condition of the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment. In one example, a position of a drop point is determined according to a collision point of a virtual parabola corresponding to the trajectory indication information and a virtual object in the virtual environment, and the drop point indication information is displayed in the virtual environment based on the position of the drop point, for example, when the virtual parabola corresponding to a virtual throwing object in the pre-throwing operation generates a collision point with a virtual wall, the drop point position information is displayed at the collision point.

In response to receiving the throwing operation, the virtual throwing object is thrown to a target location in the virtual environment, step 304.

The throwing operation is used to instruct throwing of the virtual throwing object through the virtual object to a target location in the virtual environment.

Illustratively, a throwing control part is included in the virtual environment interface, and a user can control a virtual object to use the virtual throwing object through the throwing control part; the user may also control the virtual object to use the virtual throwing object by presetting a shortcut key, which is not limited herein. Taking the example of controlling a virtual object to use a virtual throwing object through a throwing control, a terminal displays the throwing control, and the throwing control is superposed on a virtual environment picture; and controlling the virtual object to throw the virtual throwing object in response to receiving the triggering operation aiming at the throwing control. The terminal receives the throwing operation through the throwing control, generates a throwing signal according to the throwing operation, sends the throwing signal to the server, the server determines the last falling point of the virtual throwing object according to the throwing signal, determines the target position, returns feedback information including the target position to the terminal, and the terminal displays a corresponding virtual environment picture according to the feedback information, namely the virtual throwing object is thrown to the target position in the virtual environment by the virtual object.

Step 305, displaying a virtual obstacle at the target location.

Schematically, the virtual throwing object corresponds to a target triggering time length, and after the virtual throwing object is thrown to a virtual environment, the corresponding throwing time length needs to reach the target triggering time length, and then the virtual barrier is displayed at the target position, namely, the virtual barrier is displayed at the target position in response to that the virtual throwing object is thrown to the target position in the virtual environment and the thrown time length reaches the target triggering time length; virtual obstacles may also be displayed when thrown and in the presence of a collision condition; or the virtual throwing object is triggered to display the virtual barrier when the virtual object approaches a certain range of the virtual throwing object thrown to the target position in the virtual environment; the virtual obstacle may be displayed at the target position when the virtual throwing object is thrown into the virtual environment and the obstacle display operation is received (for example, a trigger operation on the obstacle display control is received), which is not limited herein.

The function of the virtual obstacle displayed by the virtual projectile in the virtual environment comprises an attack blocking function, i.e. if the virtual object is located on a first side of the virtual obstacle, the virtual obstacle is used for blocking virtual injury to the virtual object from a second side, wherein the first side and the second side are opposite. Illustratively, the virtual obstacle is a virtual object with a preset shape, the virtual object may be a virtual wall, a virtual steel plate, a virtual explosion-proof shield, and the like, and the preset shape may be a rectangular parallelepiped, a cube, a sphere, or another irregular-shaped object, which is not limited herein.

When the virtual object is on the first side of the virtual barrier, the virtual barrier can protect the virtual object from virtual injury from the second side, i.e., the virtual barrier can block attack in a preset direction, optionally, the virtual barrier can block attack operation of a hostile virtual object, but not attack operation of the virtual object or a teammate virtual object, the hostile virtual object has a hostile paradox relationship with the virtual object throwing the virtual projectile, the teammate virtual object has a same paradox relationship with the virtual object throwing the virtual projectile, in one example, a virtual bullet launched by the hostile virtual object using a virtual firearm cannot penetrate the virtual barrier, and a virtual bullet launched by the teammate virtual object using a virtual firearm can penetrate the virtual barrier; or the virtual barrier blocks all attack operations in the virtual environment, in one example, neither the hostile virtual object nor the teammate virtual object can penetrate the virtual barrier using a virtual bullet fired by the virtual firearm; or the virtual barrier allows attack operations in one direction but blocks attack operations in the opposite direction, in one example the virtual barrier comprises an attack face and a defence face, a virtual bullet being able to pass through the virtual barrier from the attack face but not from the defence face.

The virtual obstacle also corresponds to a virtual life value, in one example, an attack operation of an enemy virtual object on the virtual obstacle can cause damage to the virtual obstacle, that is, the corresponding virtual life value of the virtual obstacle is reduced, when the virtual life value is reduced to 0, the virtual obstacle disappears from the virtual environment, illustratively, the virtual obstacle can directly disappear from the virtual environment, or an explosion effect is triggered when the virtual life value is cleared, and the explosion effect can cause virtual damage to the virtual object within a certain range. The method comprises the steps that attack operation of an enemy virtual object on a virtual barrier is received, and the virtual life value of the virtual barrier is reduced; and controlling the virtual barrier to disappear from the virtual environment in response to the virtual life value being cleared.

The virtual barrier also corresponds to a target display duration, in one example, if the virtual life value of the virtual barrier is not cleared before the target display duration is finished, the virtual barrier continues to be displayed in the virtual environment, and if the virtual life value of the virtual barrier is cleared, the virtual barrier disappears from the virtual environment even if the display duration of the virtual barrier does not reach the target display duration; or the virtual barrier only corresponds to the target display duration, namely before the display duration of the virtual barrier does not reach the target display duration, the virtual barrier is displayed in the virtual environment, and the virtual barrier is controlled to disappear from the virtual environment in response to the display duration of the virtual barrier reaching the target display duration; or triggering an attack function of the virtual barrier in the virtual environment in response to the display duration of the virtual barrier reaching the target display duration, wherein the attack function includes causing virtual damage to a virtual object within a first preset range, and the virtual object can be an enemy virtual object, a teammate virtual object or a virtual object for throwing the virtual throwing object.

The virtual barrier is also correspondingly provided with a cancellation control, when the virtual barrier is successfully displayed at a target position in the virtual environment, the cancellation control is displayed on a virtual environment interface, and when the cancellation control receives a trigger signal, the virtual barrier in the virtual environment is controlled to disappear, namely, after the user displays the virtual barrier through a virtual throwing object, the virtual barrier can be cancelled in a manual mode.

The function of the virtual barrier in the virtual environment also includes an attack function. After the virtual barrier is displayed in the virtual environment, receiving an attack trigger signal aiming at the virtual barrier, and triggering an attack function of the virtual barrier in the virtual environment based on the attack trigger signal, wherein the attack function is used for indicating that virtual injury is caused to virtual rest within a first preset range of the virtual barrier, and the virtual object can be an enemy virtual object, a teammate virtual object or a virtual object for throwing the virtual throwing object. Illustratively, the sending of the attack trigger signal includes triggering by a control, or triggering in response to disappearance of the virtual obstacle, or triggering when the virtual object approaches a certain preset range of the virtual obstacle.

Schematically, triggering the attack function of the virtual obstacle through a control, namely, displaying the control in a virtual environment interface by a terminal, wherein the control is superposed on a virtual environment picture, a virtual environment is displayed in the virtual environment picture, and the control is used for triggering the attack function of the virtual obstacle; receiving a trigger operation aiming at a control; and generating an attack trigger signal to the virtual obstacle based on the trigger operation so as to realize the attack function of the virtual obstacle in the virtual environment. Optionally, the control may be displayed in the virtual environment interface when the virtual object is close to the virtual obstacle, that is, when the virtual object moves to a second preset range of the virtual obstacle, the control is displayed; the control may also be that after the virtual object throws the virtual throwing object, the virtual obstacle is successfully displayed in the virtual environment and then displayed on the virtual environment interface, that is, the control is displayed in response to the virtual obstacle being displayed at the target position.

Illustratively, when the display duration of the virtual obstacle in the virtual environment reaches the target display duration, the attack function of the virtual obstacle is automatically triggered. Namely, in response to the display duration of the virtual obstacle reaching the target display duration, an attack trigger signal for the virtual obstacle is generated to realize an attack function of the virtual obstacle in the virtual environment.

Illustratively, when a virtual obstacle located in the virtual environment is approached by a virtual object, the attack function of the virtual obstacle is automatically triggered. That is, in response to the virtual object existing within the third preset range of the virtual obstacle, an attack trigger signal for the virtual obstacle is generated to realize an attack function of the virtual obstacle in the virtual environment, and the virtual object may be an enemy virtual object, a teammate virtual object, or a virtual object for throwing the virtual throwing object.

In summary, according to the operation method of the virtual throwing object provided by the embodiment of the present application, in the virtual environment including the virtual object, the virtual object holding the virtual throwing object is controlled to throw the virtual throwing object to the target position in the virtual environment, so as to realize displaying the virtual barrier at the target position, and the virtual barrier can protect the virtual object on the first side from the virtual injury from the second side, wherein the first side is opposite to the second side, so that the operation diversity of the virtual throwing object is improved, and the function of the virtual throwing object is enriched.

The user can determine the position of the virtual throwing object at the falling point in the virtual environment when throwing in the current throwing direction through the pre-throwing operation, and the user can pre-judge the target position of the virtual throwing object triggering function based on the position of the falling point.

Step 503, displaying the track indication information of the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment based on the pre-throwing operation.

Illustratively, the terminal determines to receive a throwing operation of a user through a trigger signal of a throwing control, generates a corresponding throwing signal according to a determined throwing direction and a throwing angle in a pre-throwing operation stage, transmits the throwing signal to the server, determines the final setting of the virtual throwing object, namely a target position, according to the throwing direction and the throwing angle in the throwing signal, returns feedback information corresponding to the target position to the terminal, and displays a corresponding virtual environment picture according to the feedback information, namely the virtual throwing object is thrown to the target position in the virtual environment by the virtual object.

Step 505, displaying a virtual obstacle at the target position.

Illustratively, the virtual obstacle is a virtual object with a preset shape, the virtual object may be a virtual wall, a virtual steel plate, a virtual explosion-proof shield, and the like, and the preset shape may be a rectangular parallelepiped, a cube, a sphere, or another irregular-shaped object, which is not limited herein. The functions of the virtual barrier include an attack blocking function and an attack function.

Steps 506-508 (step 506 includes

steps

5061 and 5062, step 507 includes steps 5071 and 5072) are the functional effects that three virtual obstacles can achieve in the virtual environment.

At step 5061, an attack trigger signal for the virtual obstacle is received.

The sending of the attack trigger signal comprises triggering through a control, or triggering when the virtual obstacle disappears in response, or triggering when the virtual object approaches a certain preset range of the virtual obstacle. The method comprises the steps that after a terminal receives an attack trigger signal aiming at a virtual obstacle, an attack trigger request is correspondingly generated, the attack trigger request is sent to a server, the server determines a virtual object which is virtually damaged due to the attack function of the virtual obstacle in a virtual environment according to the attack trigger request, effect feedback information is generated and fed back to the terminal, and the terminal displays a corresponding virtual environment picture according to the effect feedback information.

At step 5062, an attack function of the virtual barrier in the virtual environment is triggered based on the attack trigger signal.

The attack function is used for indicating that virtual damage is caused to a virtual object within a first preset range of a virtual obstacle. The first preset range has a corresponding relationship with the volume of the virtual obstacle, and in one example, as shown in fig. 6, a virtual obstacle 610 is displayed in the virtual environment screen 600, the virtual obstacle 610 is a rectangular wall surface, the first preset range is determined according to the length of the virtual obstacle 610, that is, a circle is made with the length of the virtual obstacle 610 as a diameter, and a circular range 620, that is, a first preset range, is obtained. When the attack function of the virtual obstacle is triggered, the virtual obstacle can generate an explosion effect, and the corresponding enemy virtual object in the first preset range can be virtually damaged by a preset numerical value.

Illustratively, the magnitude of the virtual injury is related to the distance between the enemy virtual object and the virtual obstacle, and in one example, the closer the enemy virtual object is to the virtual obstacle, the higher the value corresponding to the received virtual injury is, and the farther the enemy virtual object is from the virtual obstacle, the lower the value corresponding to the received virtual injury is.

Step 5071, in response to receiving an attack operation on the virtual obstacle by the virtual object in the virtual environment, reducing a virtual life value of the virtual obstacle.

The virtual barrier also corresponds to a virtual life value. Illustratively, when the virtual object in the virtual environment includes a hostile virtual object, the hostile virtual object's attack operation on the virtual obstacle may cause damage to the virtual obstacle, i.e. reduce the corresponding virtual life value of the virtual obstacle, and when the virtual life value is reduced to 0, the virtual obstacle disappears from the virtual environment.

In one example, the virtual damage to the virtual obstacle caused by the attack operation of the enemy on the virtual object is related to the virtual prop used by the virtual object, that is, the higher the attack force corresponding to the virtual prop is, the higher the virtual damage to the virtual obstacle is, for example, if the virtual gun held by the enemy on the virtual object is a virtual pistol, the lower the damage to the virtual obstacle caused by the corresponding virtual bullet, if the virtual gun held by the enemy on the virtual object is a virtual mortar, the higher the damage to the corresponding virtual shell, the higher the damage to the virtual obstacle caused by the virtual obstacle, if the corresponding virtual damage is higher than the total virtual life value or the remaining virtual life value of the virtual obstacle, the virtual obstacle is directly destroyed, and the attack blocking function cannot be provided to the virtual object any more.

In response to the virtual life value being empty, the virtual obstacle is controlled to disappear from the virtual environment, step 5072.

When the virtual life value of the virtual barrier is emptied, the virtual barrier disappears from the virtual environment, and the attack blocking function can not be provided for the virtual object any more. Illustratively, the virtual barrier may disappear directly from the virtual environment, or an explosion effect may be triggered when the virtual life value is cleared, and the explosion effect may cause virtual damage to a virtual object within a certain range.

And step 508, responding to the display duration of the virtual barrier reaching the target display duration, and controlling the virtual barrier to disappear from the virtual environment.

The virtual barrier also corresponds to a target display duration, illustratively, if the virtual life value of the virtual barrier is not cleared before the target display duration is finished, the virtual barrier continues to be displayed in the virtual environment, and if the virtual life value of the virtual barrier is cleared, the virtual barrier disappears from the virtual environment even if the display duration of the virtual barrier does not reach the target display duration; or the virtual barrier only corresponds to the target display duration, namely before the display duration of the virtual barrier does not reach the target display duration, the virtual barrier is displayed in the virtual environment, and the virtual barrier is controlled to disappear from the virtual environment in response to the fact that the display duration of the virtual barrier reaches the target display duration. Schematically, or after the display duration of the virtual obstacle reaches the target display duration, triggering an attack function of the virtual obstacle in the virtual environment, namely generating an explosion effect after the virtual obstacle displays the target display duration in the virtual environment, and generating virtual damage to the virtual object within the second preset range.

Illustratively, when the display duration of the virtual obstacle does not reach the target display duration, the user may control the virtual obstacle to disappear through the cancel control, that is, when the cancel control receives the trigger signal, the virtual obstacle directly disappears.

In summary, according to the operation method of the virtual throwing object provided by the embodiment of the application, the virtual barrier is displayed through the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment, and the functions of the virtual barrier in the virtual environment comprise the attack blocking function and the attack function, so that the battle effect and the tactical effect can be realized, the operation diversity of the virtual throwing object is improved, and the functions of the virtual throwing object are enriched.

Referring to fig. 7, there is shown an operation method of a virtual throwing object according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application, in which a throwing process of the virtual throwing object is described, the method including:

step 701, displaying a virtual object of the handheld virtual throwing object.

The user can control the virtual objects in the virtual environment through the terminal, so that various activities can be realized in the virtual environment through the virtual objects. Wherein the activity includes a virtual projectile held in the hand using a virtual object.

Step 702, in response to receiving the pre-cast operation, displaying trajectory indication information of the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment.

Illustratively, a throwing trajectory of a virtual throwing object in a virtual environment is determined in response to receiving a target account number usage signal for the virtual throwing object. Specifically, the terminal generates a use signal according to the received pre-throwing operation, determines a throwing track of the throwing object in the virtual environment according to the use signal, and displays track indication information on a virtual environment screen according to the throwing track. The target account corresponds to the virtual object, that is, the user logs in the target account in an application program on the terminal, the application program provides a virtual environment, and the user can control the virtual object in the virtual environment through the terminal.

In the embodiment of the present application, please refer to fig. 8, a throwing control 810 is included in a virtual environment interface 800 displayed by a terminal, a user throws a virtual throwing object by clicking or pressing the throwing control 810, illustratively, when the user clicks the throwing control 810, a virtual object shows a throwing motion, the terminal displays track indication information 820 corresponding to a current throwing direction and a throwing angle in a virtual environment screen, and the user can approximately judge a drop point of the virtual throwing object through the track indication information 820.

Illustratively, the throwing track may be determined by the terminal or the server, and is not limited herein. Taking the determination through the server as an example, the terminal generates a corresponding throwing signal according to the throwing direction and the throwing angle, and transmits the throwing signal to the server, and the server performs logic processing according to the throwing signal.

Step 703, displaying the information indicating the placement of the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment.

And determining the drop point indication information of the virtual throwing object through the track indication information, wherein the drop point indication information is used for indicating the drop point condition of the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment. Illustratively, the drop point indication information may be a drop point position at the time of a first collision in the virtual environment when the virtual throwing object is thrown at a throwing angle and a throwing direction corresponding to the current pre-throwing operation, and in one example, the drop point indication information is displayed on a virtual wall if the drop point position at the time of the first collision is the virtual wall. Or the drop point indication information may be a final drop point, that is, a target position in the virtual environment when the virtual throwing object is thrown at a throwing angle and a throwing direction corresponding to the current pre-throwing operation, in one example, when the virtual throwing object is thrown at a throwing angle and a throwing direction corresponding to the current pre-throwing operation, the drop point position where the virtual throwing object collides for the first time in the virtual environment is located on a virtual wall, the virtual throwing object rebounds through the virtual wall, falls on the virtual ground and collides for the second time, and finally falls at a collision point of the second collision, and the drop point indication information is displayed at the collision point of the second collision.

Step 704, in response to receiving the throwing operation, throws the virtual throwing object to a target location in the virtual environment.

The virtual throwing object falls at a target position after flying and colliding in a virtual environment, schematically, the determination of the target position is obtained through logic processing by a server, namely the server determines a collision point of the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment according to a throwing signal, if the collision point corresponds to a trigger plane, the collision point is determined to be the target position, if the collision point corresponds to a non-trigger plane, the virtual throwing object continues flying after rebounding through the non-trigger plane and collides with the next collision point until the virtual throwing object falls on the trigger plane, the server determines the target position, wherein the trigger plane comprises a virtual plane which is horizontally displayed in the virtual environment, such as a virtual ground, a virtual desktop and the like, and the non-trigger plane comprises a virtual plane which is vertically displayed or obliquely displayed in the virtual environment, such as a virtual wall surface and the like. The server generates a feedback signal for the determined target position, returns the feedback signal to the terminal, and the terminal displays a corresponding virtual environment picture according to the feedback signal, namely a throwing track of the virtual throwing object in the virtual environment and the target position corresponding to the falling point.

Step 705, displaying a virtual obstacle at the target location. And when the virtual throwing object is thrown to the virtual environment and the corresponding throwing time length reaches the target triggering time length, displaying the virtual barrier at the target position.

As shown in fig. 9, a virtual obstacle 910 is displayed at a target position in the virtual environment interface 900, wherein the virtual obstacle 910 corresponds to a virtual wall, and its corresponding placing direction is perpendicular to the current virtual object facing direction, that is, as shown in fig. 10, the orientation of the virtual obstacle 1010 in the virtual environment 1000 is parallel to or on the same straight line with the normal direction 1030 of the virtual obstacle from the virtual object facing direction 1020. That is, the drop point of the virtual projectile determines the target location for virtual obstacle generation, while the orientation of the virtual object determines the orientation of the virtual obstacle.

Illustratively, the size of the virtual obstacle is determined by the surrounding environment, in one example, since there are more controls in the virtual environment in the upward direction, the maximum height is generally taken in the height, and if there are other obstacles above, such as a roof, the corresponding height takes the height from the obstacle to the ground as the height of the virtual obstacle; then, the lengths of the two sides need to be selected, rays are emitted from the target position to the left side and the right side schematically, after the rays collide with other obstacles, the terminal obtains a transverse longest length, if the length is larger than the preset length of the virtual obstacle, the virtual obstacle with the preset length is directly displayed, if the length is smaller than the preset length of the virtual obstacle, the length is taken as the length of the virtual obstacle, and finally the virtual obstacle is displayed through the determined height and length.

In one example, please refer to fig. 11, which shows a corresponding flow chart of the operation method of the virtual throwing object, that is, the flow includes: controlling a virtual object to equip a virtual projectile 1101; judging if the throwing control is triggered 1102; if yes, the virtual throwing object is thrown into the virtual environment 1103; judging whether to collide with a non-trigger plane 1104; if so, then bounce and continue flying 1105; if not, the object falls into the target position to explode and generate a virtual obstacle 1106; determining whether the virtual barrier is broken 1107; if so, the virtual obstacle disappears 1108; if not, continuing to resist the attack operation of the enemy virtual object 1109; determining whether to trigger an attack function for a virtual barrier 1110; if yes, the virtual barrier generates an explosion effect and causes virtual damage 1111 to the enemy virtual object within the first preset range.
