Next, a description is given of a method for switching a call object in a virtual scene according to an embodiment of the present application, where in actual implementation, the method may be implemented by a server or a terminal alone, or may be implemented by a server and a terminal in cooperation. Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for switching a call object in a virtual scene according to an embodiment of the present application, and the method will be described with reference to the steps shown in fig. 3.

Step 101: and the terminal presents the target virtual object, the call object of the target virtual object and a switching control for switching the call object in the interface of the virtual scene.

Here, the terminal is installed with a client supporting a virtual scene, and when a user opens the client on the terminal and the terminal runs the client, the terminal presents an interface of the virtual scene observed from a target virtual object perspective to the virtual scene, where the target virtual object is a virtual object in the virtual scene corresponding to the current user account. In the virtual scene, a user can control the target virtual object to interact with other virtual objects based on an interface of the virtual scene, for example, the control target virtual object has a virtual shooting property (such as a virtual sniping gun, a virtual submachine gun, a virtual shotgun and the like) to shoot other virtual objects.

The call object is an image of various people and objects for assisting the target virtual object to interact with other virtual objects in the virtual scene, and the image can be a virtual character, a virtual animal, an animation character, a virtual prop, a virtual vehicle and the like. The calling object can be a calling object randomly distributed to a target virtual object by the system when the player initially enters the virtual field, or can be a calling object called by the player through switching the control.

It should be noted that, when there is no calling object in the virtual scene (there is no existing calling object), the switching control may be used to call out a new calling object, and when there is an already called object in the virtual scene, the switching control may be used to switch the existing calling object to another calling object.

In practical application, a player can control the summoning object to assist the target virtual object in the virtual scene and interact with the virtual object of which the target virtual object is in a different virtual object group, for example, the summoning object and the target virtual object are controlled to cooperate with other objects in an enemy relationship to fight against.

In some embodiments, before the terminal switches the call object in the virtual scene to the target call object, a switching control for switching the call object may be displayed in a first display style; correspondingly, after the terminal switches the call object in the virtual scene into the target call object, the terminal can also adopt a second display style to display a switching control for switching the target call object in the process that the target call object assists the target virtual object to execute interaction with other virtual objects; the first display style is used for representing that the switching control is in an activated state, and the second display style is different from the first display style and is used for representing that the switching control used for switching the target calling object is in an inactivated state.

In practical application, the display style of the switching control in the inactive state is different from that of the switching control in the active state, when the switching control for switching the call object is in the active state, the switching control can be highlighted (i.e. the first display style) in an interface of a virtual scene, when the call object is switched to the target call object based on the switching control, the switching control becomes the control for switching the target call object, and in a normal condition, in a target time period after the call object is switched to the target call object, the target call object cannot be switched to other call objects, so that in the target time period, the switching control is in the inactive state and can be displayed through a gray display style (i.e. the second display style).

Step 102: and presenting calling object options corresponding to the at least two candidate calling objects in response to the first trigger operation aiming at the switching control.

The first trigger operation may be a single-click operation, a double-click operation, a long-press operation, a drag operation, a sliding operation, and the like, and the first trigger operation is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In some embodiments, when the switching control is in the inactive state, the terminal may further present, in the process of presenting the switching control, cooling progress indication information corresponding to the switching control; correspondingly, the terminal can respond to the first trigger operation aiming at the switching control by the following modes to present the calling object options corresponding to at least two candidate calling objects: and when the cooling progress indication information indicates that the switching control is in the activated state, responding to a first trigger operation aiming at the switching control in the activated state, and presenting calling object options corresponding to at least two candidate calling objects.

The cooling progress indicating information is used for indicating the cooling time or the energy recovery progress corresponding to the condition that the switching control is switched from the inactivated state to the activated state; the cooling progress indication information can be displayed before the user triggers the switching control, at the moment, the player can accurately master the triggering time aiming at the switching control based on the cooling progress of the switching control indicated by the cooling progress indication information, and if the cooling progress indication information indicates that the cooling is finished when the player urgently needs to switch the summoning object and the switching control is in an inactivated state, the player can immediately trigger the switching control to quickly realize the switching of the summoning object; the cooling progress indication information can be displayed after the user triggers the switching control, the switching control is found to be in an inactivated state after the switching control is triggered, at the moment, the player can accurately master the selection time of the candidate calling objects based on the cooling progress of the switching control indicated by the cooling progress indication information, and if the cooling progress indication information indicates that cooling is finished once the player urgently needs to switch the calling objects, the player can immediately select the target calling object from the candidate calling objects based on the calling option to quickly realize the switching of the calling objects.

In practical implementation, the terminal responds to the first trigger operation for the switching control, sends an acquisition request for the state of the switching control to the server, wherein, the obtaining request carries a player identification, the server obtains cooling progress indicating information such as cooling duration aiming at the switching control (namely the duration of the last time the switching control is activated and used from the current moment) or energy state corresponding to the player and the like based on the player identification, and returns the cooling progress indicating information to the terminal for displaying, when the cooling progress indication information indicates that the cooling countdown is zero or the energy is restored to 100% (the energy value required for activating the switching control is reached), the switching control can be activated, when the player triggers the switching control in the activated state, the terminal can respond to the triggering operation, and presenting the calling object options corresponding to a plurality of selectable candidate calling objects in a form of a popup window.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic representation of a candidate summoning object provided in this embodiment of the present application, when a player triggers a switching control 501, in response to the triggering operation, when the switching control is in an inactive state, the terminal presents cooling progress indication information 502, when the cooling progress indication information 502 indicates that energy is restored to 100%, and when the switching control is successfully activated, presents a summoning object popup window 503, and presents a plurality of candidate summoning objects that can be selected in the summoning object popup window.

In some embodiments, after presenting the switching control for switching the summoning object, when the switching control is in an inactive state, the terminal may further present an interaction score obtained by interaction between the target virtual object and other virtual objects in the virtual scene; when the interactive score reaches a score threshold value, activating a switching control so that the switching control is in an activated state; correspondingly, the terminal can respond to the triggering operation aiming at the switching control by the following modes to present the calling object options corresponding to at least two candidate calling objects: and presenting the calling object options corresponding to the at least two candidate calling objects in response to the first trigger operation aiming at the switching control in the activated state.

Here, in practical applications, before triggering the switching control, after activating the switching control based on an interaction score obtained by interacting the target virtual object with another virtual object in the virtual scene, the player triggers the switching control in an activated state, and the terminal can present, in response to the triggering operation, the call object options corresponding to at least two candidate call objects in real time, so that the user can select the target call object to be switched from in time.

In some embodiments, after presenting the switching control for switching the summoning object, the terminal may further present switching opportunity indication information for the summoning object, where the switching opportunity indication information is used to indicate a success rate of switching from the summoning object to another summoning object; correspondingly, the terminal can respond to the triggering operation aiming at the switching control by the following modes to present the calling object options corresponding to at least two candidate calling objects: and when the switching opportunity indication information indicates that the success rate exceeds the probability threshold, responding to the triggering operation aiming at the switching control, and presenting calling object options corresponding to at least two candidate calling objects.

In practical applications, because the switching success rate (or the calling success rate) is related to the situation of the target virtual object in the virtual scene during the switching (or calling) process of the calling object, if the switching operation is interrupted by interference attack of other virtual objects (namely enemies) during the switching operation, the calling object cannot be successfully switched to other calling objects, for example, when the target virtual object is in an interaction environment favorable for replacing the calling object or in a position area not easy to be interfered and attacked by other virtual objects (namely enemies), the switching (or calling) success rate for the calling object is higher; and for example, when the interaction achievement of the target virtual object is obviously superior to the interaction achievement of other virtual objects (namely enemies), the success rate of switching (or calling) of the player for the calling object is lower. The player executes the switching operation under the situation that the player is more suitable for switching the calling object based on the switching opportunity indication information, so that the success probability of switching out the selected target calling object can be improved.

Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic view of presenting candidate summoning objects provided in this embodiment of the present application, before a player triggers a switching control 601, switching timing indication information 602 for a summoning object is presented, when the switching timing indication information 602 indicates that a switching success rate for a summoning object is maximum, a user may trigger the switching control 601, and a terminal presents summoning object options corresponding to a plurality of selectable candidate summoning objects in response to the triggering operation.

Step 103: and updating the presentation form of the switching control in response to the selection operation of the target call object in the at least two candidate call objects based on the call object option, wherein the presentation form is related to the target call object.

In some embodiments, the terminal may present the toggle control for toggling the summons object by: presenting a switching control for switching the calling object, and presenting a graphic identifier of the calling object on the switching control; correspondingly, the terminal can update the presentation form of the switching control in the following way: and switching the graphic identifier presented on the switching control from the graphic identifier of the calling object to the graphic identifier of the target calling object.

Before the calling object in the virtual scene is switched to the target calling object, the graphic identifier presented on the switching control is the graphic identifier of the calling object in the virtual scene, and after the target calling object to be switched is selected, the graphic identifier presented on the switching control is updated, that is, the graphic identifier presenting the selected target calling object is updated.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic display diagram of a switching control provided in an embodiment of the present application, where before a call object is switched, a graphic identifier presented on the switching control is a graphic identifier 1 of the call object existing in a current virtual scene, and after the call object is switched, the graphic identifier presented on the switching control is switched from the graphic identifier of the call object before the switching to a graphic identifier 2 of a target call object after the switching.

Step 104: and responding to a second trigger operation aiming at the updated switching control, calling and presenting the target calling object so as to switch the calling object in the virtual scene into the target calling object.

Here, when the user triggers the switching control with the updated presentation form, the terminal may call out the target call object in response to the triggering operation, and present the target call object in the virtual scene to replace the original call object.

The first trigger operation is used for switching a call object, the second trigger operation is used for calling a target call object, and the second trigger operation may be the same as or different from the first trigger operation, for example, the second trigger operation may also be a single-click operation, a double-click operation, a long-press operation, a drag operation, a sliding operation, and the like.

In some embodiments, the above steps 103-104 can also be simplified into one step: based on the calling object option, responding to the selection operation of a target calling object in at least two candidate calling objects, and switching the calling object in the virtual scene into the target calling object; that is, when the user selects a target summoning object from at least two candidate summoning objects, the terminal responds to the selection operation, and directly summons out the target virtual object and displays the target virtual object in the virtual scene to replace the original summoning object. Therefore, the original calling object can be switched to the target calling object by triggering the switching control to select the target calling object, so that the quick switching of the calling object is realized, and the switching efficiency is further improved.

In some embodiments, before the terminal calls and presents the target calling object to switch the calling object in the virtual scene to the target calling object, the terminal can also control the target virtual object to execute a calling singing for calling the target calling object; along with the execution of the singing, presenting the indication information of the singing progress corresponding to the singing; correspondingly, the terminal can call and present the target calling object in the following modes, and the calling object in the virtual scene is switched into the target calling object: when the calling progress indication information indicates that calling for the target calling object is successful, calling and presenting the target calling object so as to switch the calling object in the virtual scene into the target calling object.

Here, in practical applications, the summoning object corresponds to a summoning song, different summoning objects correspond to different summoning songs, and a player may summon the corresponding summoning object only by executing the summoning song corresponding to the summoning object. After the player selects the target calling object, the terminal controls the target virtual object to execute a calling singing corresponding to the target calling, and the calling progress indication information is used for indicating the calling progress of the target calling object, wherein the calling progress can be represented by a calling countdown, if the calling progress is successful within 3 seconds, the calling completion can also be represented by the calling completion, and if the calling is completed by 80%.

Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic display diagram of the call progress indication information provided in the embodiment of the present application, and the call progress indication information 701 for the target call object is presented in an interface of a virtual scene, and when the call progress indication information 701 indicates that the call completion degree for the target call object is 100%, it can be regarded that the target call object is successfully called.

In some embodiments, after the terminal calls and presents the target call object to switch the call object in the virtual scene to the target call object, the terminal may further acquire the position of the target virtual object in the virtual scene and present the target call object at the position-associated target area.

The terminal can control the target calling object to be presented at a position which is beneficial to assisting the target virtual object to interact with other virtual objects after the target calling object is called and switched into the target calling object, so that the target calling object can provide maximum help for the target virtual object as much as possible, the interaction times of the target virtual object for achieving a certain interaction purpose can be reduced, the human-computer interaction efficiency is improved, and the occupation of hardware processing resources is saved.

In some embodiments, the terminal may present the targeted summons object at the location-associated target area by: when a virtual object in a virtual object group different from the target virtual object exists in the virtual scene, the target calling object is presented in an area range taking the position of the target virtual object as the center and the length of the target as the radius.

Here, the virtual object in a virtual object group different from the target virtual object may also be referred to as an enemy of the target virtual object, and the target virtual object is controlled to be presented in the surrounding area range of the target virtual object, so that the target summoning object can provide the maximum help for the target virtual object as much as possible, thereby reducing the number of interactions performed by the target virtual object to reach a certain interaction purpose, improving human-computer interaction efficiency, and saving occupation of hardware processing resources.

For example, the target summoning object may be presented at the target point (face to face unmanned), may be presented near the target point (face to face is a person in the same battle), and may be presented near the target point and attack the target (face to face is an enemy).

In some embodiments, after the terminal calls and presents the target call object to switch the call object in the virtual scene to the target call object, energy indication information of the corresponding target virtual object may also be presented, wherein the energy indication information is used for indicating an energy value deducted by successfully calling the target call object.

Here, the energy value is also the energy value deducted by the successful switching of the summoning object to the target summoning object. For example, assuming that the upper limit of the energy value is 500 points, that is, only 500 points are owned to perform the calling operation, when the player initially enters the virtual scene or after reproduction, the energy value is restored to 500 points, 500 points of energy are deducted each time the calling object is called out or successfully switched, 2 points of energy value are restored each second during the survival period of the calling object, 100 points of energy value can be restored each time one other virtual object is eliminated, and when the energy value reaches 500 points again, the calling object can be called or switched again.

In some embodiments, after the terminal calls and presents the target call object to switch the call object in the virtual scene to the target call object, the terminal may further present a first operation control corresponding to the target virtual object and a second operation control corresponding to the target call object; responding to the trigger operation aiming at the first operation control, and controlling the target virtual object to execute interaction with other virtual objects in the virtual scene; and in the process of interacting the target virtual object with other virtual objects, responding to the trigger operation aiming at the second operation control, and controlling the target summoning object to assist the target virtual object to interact with other virtual objects.

Referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic display diagram of an operation control provided in this embodiment, in an interface of a virtual scene, after a call object in the virtual scene is switched to a target call object, an operation control 801 for controlling the target virtual object to perform an interaction operation is different from an operation control 802 for controlling the target call object to perform an interaction operation, the operation control 801 and the operation control 802 are independent from each other, and the target virtual object and the target call object are respectively controlled to perform corresponding interaction operations through different independent operation controls, so that interaction between the target virtual object and another virtual object (enemy) and interaction between the target call object and another virtual object (enemy) can be supplemented and matched with each other, an interaction target desired by a player can be quickly reached, such as quickly defeating the enemy, and further the number of interactions performed by the target virtual object to reach an interaction purpose can be reduced, the man-machine interaction efficiency is improved, and the occupation of hardware processing resources is saved.

In some embodiments, after the terminal calls and presents the target call object to switch the call object in the virtual scene to the target call object, the terminal may also present a one-key operation control corresponding to the target virtual object and the target call object; and responding to the triggering operation aiming at the one-key operation control, and controlling the target virtual object and the target calling object to cooperatively execute the interaction with other virtual objects.

Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic display diagram of an operation control provided in this embodiment, in an interface of a virtual scene, after a target call object is called and the call object in the virtual scene is switched to a target call object, a one-key operation control 901 may be used to control the target virtual object and the target call object to perform an interaction operation, that is, the operation control used to control the target virtual object to perform the interaction operation and the operation control used to control the target call object to perform the interaction operation are the same operation control, when a user triggers the one-key operation control 901, a terminal may simultaneously control the target virtual object and the target call object to perform the interaction operation in the virtual scene, so that control over two virtual objects is realized by one-key triggering, and interaction times for the operation controls may be reduced, thereby improving human-computer interaction efficiency, and the occupation of hardware processing resources is saved.

In some embodiments, after the terminal calls and presents the target call object to switch the call object in the virtual scene to the target call object, when the picture of the virtual scene is the picture of the angle of view of the target virtual object, the angle of view of the picture of the virtual scene may also be switched from the angle of view of the target virtual object to the angle of view of the target call object, and in the picture of the angle of view of the target call object, an interactive picture in which the target virtual object interacts with other virtual objects in the virtual scene is presented to assist the target virtual object in interacting with other virtual objects based on the interactive picture.

The visual angle of the picture of the virtual scene is switched from the visual angle of the target virtual object to the visual angle of the target calling object, and the interactive picture of the target virtual object interacting with other virtual objects in the virtual scene is presented in the visual angle of the target calling object, so that the interactive action of the target calling object and other virtual objects can be effectively controlled based on the interactive picture, the target calling object can provide maximum help for the target virtual object as much as possible, the matching effect of the target calling object and the target virtual object is optimal, the number of times of interaction executed by the target virtual object to achieve a certain interaction purpose can be reduced, the man-machine interaction efficiency is improved, and the occupation of hardware processing resources is saved.

In some embodiments, after the terminal calls and presents the target calling object to switch the calling object in the virtual scene to the target calling object, an interactive picture corresponding to interaction between the target calling object and other virtual objects can be presented; in the process of displaying the interactive picture, when the existing time length of the target calling object in the virtual scene reaches the target time length or the energy value of the target calling object is lower than the energy threshold value, the target calling object is called back.

Here, when the target summoning object is successfully switched out, the existence duration or survival duration of the target summoning object in the virtual scene is certain, for example, only survival can be carried out for 3 minutes, and the target summoning object is recalled after 3 minutes. In practical applications, if the target calling object or the target virtual object is attacked by other virtual objects, a certain energy value can be deducted, and when the energy value is lower than the energy threshold value, the target calling object can be called back.

In practical implementation, in the process of displaying the interactive picture, recall prompt information for recalling the object recall tin plating, such as "recall after 3 seconds", can be presented to prompt the player to perform corresponding interactive operation based on the recall prompt information.

In some embodiments, after the terminal calls and presents the target calling object to switch the calling object in the virtual scene to the target calling object, the terminal can also control the target calling object to assist the target virtual object to interact with other virtual objects; in the interaction process, determining the interaction score of a target summoning object; and according to the interactive scores, the existence duration of the target calling object in the virtual scene is adjusted.

Here, in practical application, a reward and punishment mechanism may be further provided for the target calling object, for example, if the target calling object is better in interactive performance in the virtual scene, a reward is provided for the target calling object, for example, the existence duration of the target calling object in the virtual scene is increased; and if the interactive performance of the target calling object in the virtual scene is poor, punishment is provided for the target calling object, for example, the existence duration of the target calling object in the virtual scene is reduced.

In practical application, when a target calling object is rewarded or punished, corresponding reward and punishment prompt information can be presented in an interface of a virtual scene, so that a player can know the interaction behavior of the target calling object in the virtual scene based on the reward and punishment prompt information so as to better adjust the control strategies for the target calling object and the target virtual object, and further the target calling object can provide the maximum help for the target virtual object as much as possible, so that the matching effect of the target calling object and the target virtual object is optimal, the interaction times of the target virtual object for achieving a certain interaction purpose can be reduced, the man-machine interaction efficiency is improved, and the occupation of hardware processing resources is saved.

In some embodiments, after the terminal calls and presents the target call object to switch the call object in the virtual scene to the target call object, the terminal may further cancel presentation of the switching control and present the withdrawal control in an operable state when the duration of switching the call object to the target call object does not reach the target duration; and when a triggering operation for the withdrawing control in the operable state is received, switching the target calling object back to the calling object.

Referring to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a schematic display diagram of an operation control provided in the embodiment of the present application, in an actual application, when a duration of switching a summoning object to a target summoning object is within a certain time, for example, within 3 seconds after switching, a switching control 1001 presented in an interface of a virtual scene is cancelled, and a revocation control 1002 is presented, and a player may trigger switching of a revocation control revocation summoning object, so that a regret mechanism is provided for the player, and when the player repentacts to switch a summoning object, the player can promote a use frequency of the player for control switching by revoking previous switching in time through the revocation control, and improve operation activity of the player.

In some embodiments, when the duration of the time for switching the summoning object to the target summoning object exceeds the duration of the target, the terminal can also control the state of the withdrawing control to be switched from the operable state to the inoperable state, and present a switching control for switching the target summoning object.

Here, when the duration of the time period for switching the call object to the target call object exceeds a certain duration, for example, after the duration exceeds 3 seconds after switching, the state of the controllable withdrawal control is switched from the operable state to the inoperable state, so that the player can only switch before withdrawing within a certain time after switching, and the player keeps alert all the time during the interaction process of the virtual scene, and the reaction force of the player in the virtual scene can be improved.

By the mode, the calling and switching of the calling object can be quickly realized through the same switching control, so that the interaction times of calling and switching of the calling object in a virtual scene by a user are reduced, the man-machine interaction efficiency is improved, the calling and switching of the calling object are realized through the same switching control, and hardware display resources are reduced; meanwhile, in the switching process, multiple playing methods are provided, so that interaction in the virtual scene is more interesting.

Next, an exemplary application of the embodiment of the present application in a practical application scenario will be described. Taking a virtual scene as an example, in the application of the dead fighting mode of most shooting games at present, a calling object is switched only by picking up a corresponding chip and assembling the chip in a backpack, and the switching process adopted by the related technology is as follows: pick up chip-open backpack-change chip-close backpack; therefore, the switching process is too complex (4 steps are needed), the screen is shielded in a large range in the chip switching process and is easily knocked down by others, and in the dead fighting mode, due to the fact that the fighting rhythm is very fast, the process is abnormal and tense, a player does not have enough time and energy to execute the operation, the switching of calling objects cannot be achieved, and the human-computer interaction efficiency is low; in addition, the energy required by the switching of the summons needs to be obtained by the player in battle or by searching for a house in a battlefield, the mode needs the player to perform a large amount of strong target behaviors (searching + picking) to obtain enough energy, and whether the energy can be fully utilized or not is not expected enough, so that the switching rate of the summons by the player is low.

Therefore, the embodiment of the application provides a method for switching the call objects in the virtual scene, the call objects can be switched by long pressing the switching control, selecting the target call object and long pressing the switching control (3 steps are needed in total), or by long pressing the switching control, selecting the target call object (2 steps are needed in total), so that the switching process is greatly simplified, and meanwhile, the screen is only shielded in a small range in the whole process, so that the observation is facilitated; and when the player initially enters the game or after regeneration, the energy required by the calling object switching is directly full, after the calling object is switched, the energy returns to zero, then the player gradually recovers the energy along with the lapse of time in the game, and the energy can be recovered by eliminating other virtual objects, so that the player does not need to worry about not obtaining enough energy, and other behaviors only accelerate the energy recovery, so that the calling object switching has higher controllability, and the switching rate of the player to the calling object is improved.

Referring to fig. 11, fig. 11 is a schematic diagram of a switching interface of a summoning object provided in the embodiment of the present application, an original summoning object is randomly assigned to a player when a battle is started, a switching control 1101 for switching the original summoning object is presented in a game screen, when a user triggers the switching control 1101, a terminal responds to the triggering operation to present a summoning object popup window 1102 and present a plurality of candidate summoning objects in the summoning object popup window 1102, responds to a selection operation for a target summoning object in the plurality of candidate summoning objects to switch the original summoning object in the game to the target summoning object, and at the same time, a graphic identifier on the switching control is switched from a graphic identifier of the original summoning object to a graphic identifier of the target summoning object.

In practical applications, the switching control is also called as a calling control, and the switching control has an activated state and an inactivated state, wherein the activated state is also called as a calling state, and the inactivated state is also called as an non-calling state.

Referring to fig. 12, fig. 12 is a display schematic diagram of a switching control provided in this embodiment of the present application, where display styles of switching controls in different states are different, when the switching control is in an inactive state, the switching control may be displayed in a gray scale, prompt information for indicating an energy recovery progress is presented on the switching control, when energy is recovered to 100% by the prompt information, the switching control is updated from the inactive state to an active state, and at this time, the switching control may be highlighted, or a special effect is adopted to prompt a player that the switching icon is in an active state.

Referring to fig. 13, fig. 13 is a flowchart illustrating a method for switching a call object in a virtual scene according to an embodiment of the present application, and the following steps are described with reference to fig. 13.

Step 201: the terminal presents a switching control in the game interface.

The switching control is used for calling out the calling object, or switching the existing calling object into other calling objects.

Step 202: and presenting a calling object popup window comprising at least two candidate calling objects in response to the triggering operation for the switching control.

Here, in practical applications, when a user triggers a switching control, a terminal sends an acquisition request for a state where the switching control is located to a server in response to the triggering operation, where the acquisition request carries a player identifier, the server acquires information such as an energy state corresponding to a player, whether there is a summoning object, and the like based on the player identifier and returns the information to the terminal, and when the energy state indicates that energy is full and there is an existing summoning object, it represents that the current switching control is in an active state, and at this time, the terminal presents a summoning object popup window which is convenient for the player to observe and which only blocks a small range of a game screen, and presents a plurality of selectable candidate summoning objects in the summoning object popup window.

When the energy state indicates that the energy is insufficient, the current switching control is represented to be in an inactivated state, the energy needs to be recovered gradually along with the lapse of time, or the energy needs to be recovered by attacking and eliminating enemies until enough energy is recovered to activate the switching control.

Referring to fig. 14, fig. 14 is an energy diagram provided by the embodiment of the present application, assuming that the upper limit of the energy value is 500 points, the calling operation can be executed only when the player has an energy value of 500 points, when the player initially enters the game or after the player regenerates the game, the energy value is directly restored to 500 points, 500 points of energy are deducted from the calling object each time, during the survival period of the calling object, the energy value of 2 points per second is restored, the energy value of 100 points can be restored every time one other virtual object is eliminated, and when the energy value reaches 500 points again, the calling object can be called again or switched.

Step 203: and responding to the selection operation of a target calling object in the at least two candidate calling objects based on the calling object popup window, and displaying the graphic identification of the target calling object on the switching control.

Step 204: and controlling the target virtual object to execute the call singing for calling the target call object in response to the triggering operation of the switching control aiming at the graphic identifier displayed with the target call object.

The target virtual objects are players, each calling object has a corresponding calling song, and the players can call the corresponding calling objects only by executing the corresponding calling songs.

Step 205: and presenting calling progress indication information corresponding to the singing along with the execution of the singing.

The calling progress indicating information is used for indicating the calling progress of the target calling object.

Step 206: and when the calling progress indication information indicates that the calling for the target calling object is successful, presenting the target calling object in the game.

When the existing calling object exists in the game and the calling is successful, the existing calling object is switched to the target calling object, namely the existing calling object is removed, and the newly called target calling object is replaced by the existing calling object; when the calling object does not exist in the game and the calling is successful, a new calling object is called as a target calling object.

Here, the target summoning objects that are successfully summoned may be presented at the target point (face-to-face unmanned), near the target point (face-to-face is a person in the same lineup), or near the target point and attack the target (face-to-face is an enemy).

Step 207: the control target summoning object assists the target virtual object in interacting with other virtual objects in the game.

Here, the control summoning target summoning object assists the player in the game against the enemy, as the control summoning target object moves around the player to confront the enemy in cooperation with the player.
