Map data downloading method and device, computing equipment and storage medium

Abstract

The invention provides a map data downloading method and device, computing equipment and a storage medium, and the method comprises the steps: receiving the initial position information of a controlled role sent by a server under the condition that the connection with the server is established; detecting the movement condition of the controlled role, defining the position where the controlled roleis located as a first target position, and checking whether map data corresponding to the first target position are stored locally or not; if yes, loading map data; and if not, generating a request according to the association information of the first target position, sending the request to a server, receiving and loading map data which is sent by the server and is associated with the first target position, and storing the received map data. According to the method, when the client does not store the map data, the controlled role moves to the first target position, and it is determined that the map data corresponding to the first target position is not stored locally, the request is sent to the server, the map data associated with the first target position are received and loaded, and thelocal storage space is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to a method and device for downloading map data, a computing device and a storage medium. Background technique [0002] With the development of the Internet and the game industry, online games are becoming more and more popular. In most online games, map data is required. [0003] In the online games of the prior art, map data is stored in the client, and after the map data is updated, the map data needs to be updated synchronously on the client. Map data will occupy a large storage space, causing the client to occupy a large hard disk capacity. This will not only cause the player to spend a lot of time when downloading and updating the online game, but also cause some potential players with insufficient hard disk space to run the online game. Contents of the invention [0004] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a method and devic...
