Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of human-computer interaction, and particularly to a method for listing virtual items, a method for purchasing virtual items, a device and a terminal. Background Art

[0002] The trading house is a platform system provided in the game for players to conduct transactions of virtual items and virtual resources. Players can sell the virtual items they own in the trading house in exchange for virtual resources, or use the existing virtual resources to obtain virtual items. At present, there are some abnormal directional trading means that disrupt the in-game trading market, that is, after obtaining a large amount of virtual resources through abnormal means, they are sold to players for profit, and the way to transfer virtual resources to players is to purchase the virtual items of players in the trading house of the virtual scene with virtual resources.

[0003] In the related art, in order to weaken and avoid the influence of the above-mentioned directional trading, one method is to limit the trading price, that is, to limit the price adjustment range of virtual items for players and prohibit obtaining a large amount of virtual resources through a single transaction; another method is to perform post-trade processing, by establishing a security system to judge whether there is directional trading, and dealing with abnormal accounts with directional trading by means of resource recovery, account banning, etc.

[0004] However, the first method above limits the trading freedom of normal players, and can only control the amount of resource transfer in a single transaction, and cannot completely prevent the behavior of directional trading. Studios can still transfer a large amount of virtual resources directionally through high-frequency transactions; while the second method can handle abnormal accounts under flexible trading conditions, but there is a certain error rate in the discrimination results of the security system, and it is easy to misprocess normal accounts.

[0041] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present application clearer, the following will further describe the embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0042] As used herein, "a plurality of" means two or more. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B may represent: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally represents an "or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0043] In the related art, weakening and avoiding directed transactions mainly include two methods. One method is to limit the transaction price, that is, to limit the price adjustment range of virtual props for players and prohibit obtaining a large amount of virtual resources through a single transaction; the other method is to perform post-transaction processing. By establishing a security system, it is judged whether there is a directed transaction, and for abnormal accounts with directed transactions, resource recovery, account banning and other methods are used for processing. However, the first method above limits the trading freedom of normal players and can only control the resource transfer volume of a single transaction, and cannot completely prevent the behavior of directed transactions. Studios can still transfer a large amount of virtual resources through high-frequency directed transactions; while the second method can handle abnormal accounts under the condition of flexible trading, but there is a certain error rate in the discrimination results of the security system, and it is easy to misprocess normal accounts.

[0044] To solve the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a method for listing virtual props and a method for purchasing virtual props. Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows a schematic diagram of an implementation environment provided by an embodiment of the present application. The implementation environment may include: a first terminal 110, a server 120, and a second terminal 130.

[0045] The first terminal 110 installs and runs an application 111 that supports virtual transactions. The first terminal 110 is the terminal used by the first user 112. When the first terminal 110 receives a selection operation of a target virtual item by the first user 112 in the application 111, a item listing interface is displayed. The first user 112 can set the item price of the target virtual item through the item listing interface. Based on the item price of the target virtual item, the first terminal 110 displays the component prices of each target item component in the item listing interface, and when receiving a listing operation for the target virtual item, lists each target item component on the virtual trading platform. Among them, the virtual trading platform is maintained and run by the server 120. Transactions in the virtual trading platform are based on item components, and the trading order of the same type of item components is determined in descending order based on the price.

[0046] The second terminal 130 installs and runs an application 131 that supports virtual transactions. The second terminal 130 is the terminal used by the second user 132. When the second terminal 130 receives a setting operation of a virtual item to be purchased by the second user 132 in the application 131, the second terminal 130 determines the item components to be purchased based on the composition of the virtual item to be purchased, and obtains and displays the component information of the virtual item to be purchased from the virtual trading platform according to the lowest price of the components. When receiving a purchase operation for the virtual item to be purchased, the second terminal 130 conducts virtual resource transfer with the virtual trading platform based on the component prices of each item component to be purchased.

[0047] Optionally, the first user 112 can also purchase virtual items through the first terminal 110, and the second user 132 can also list virtual items through the second terminal 130.

[0048] Optionally, the applications installed on the first terminal 110 and the second terminal 130 are the same, or the applications installed on the two terminals are the same type of applications on different operating system platforms (Android or iOS). The first terminal 110 can generally refer to one of multiple terminals, and the second terminal 130 can generally refer to another of multiple terminals. This embodiment only uses the first terminal 110 and the second terminal 130 as examples for illustration. The device types of the first terminal 110 and the second terminal 130 are the same or different, and the device types include at least one of smart phones, tablet computers, e-book readers, MP3 players, MP4 players, laptop computers, and desktop computers.

[0049] Figure 1Only two terminals are shown, but in different embodiments, there are multiple other terminals that can access the server 120. Optionally, there is also one or more terminals corresponding to the developer, on which a development and editing platform for applications supporting virtual transactions is installed. The developer can edit and update the application on this terminal, and transmit the updated application installation package to the server 120 through a wired or wireless network. The first terminal 110 and the second terminal 130 can download the application installation package from the server 120 to update the application.

[0050] The first terminal 110, the second terminal 130, and other terminals are connected to the server 120 through a wireless network or a wired network.

[0051] The server 120 includes at least one of a single server, a server cluster composed of multiple servers, a cloud computing platform, and a virtualization center. The server 120 is used to provide background services for applications supporting virtual chessboards. Optionally, the server 120 undertakes the main computing work, and the terminal undertakes the secondary computing work; or, the server 120 undertakes the secondary computing work, and the terminal undertakes the main computing work; or, a distributed computing architecture is adopted between the server 120 and the terminal for collaborative computing.

[0052] In a schematic example, the server 120 includes a memory 121, a processor 122, a user account database 123, a virtual transaction module 124, and a user-oriented input / output interface (I / O interface) 125. Among them, the processor 122 is used to load the instructions stored in the server 120 and process the data in the user account database 123 and the virtual transaction module 124; the user account database 123 is used to store the data of the user accounts used by the first terminal 110, the second terminal 130, and other terminals, such as the avatar of the user account, the nickname of the user account, the virtual resource amount of the user account, and the service area where the user account is located, etc.; the virtual transaction module 124 is used to update the component information in the virtual transaction platform based on the listing requests and purchase requests sent by each terminal, and perform settlement when the transaction is successful or the component is taken off the shelf, and send the transaction result to the corresponding listing terminal and purchase terminal; the user-oriented I / O interface 125 is used to establish communication with the first terminal 110 and / or the second terminal 130 through a wireless network or a wired network to exchange data.

[0053] Figure 2 The flowchart of the method for listing virtual items provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. This embodiment is described by taking the method applied to a terminal supporting virtual transactions as an example. The method includes the following steps.

[0054] Step 201, in response to a selection operation on a target virtual item, display component information of at least one target item component in the item listing interface, where the target virtual item is composed of the target item components.

[0055] In a possible implementation manner, the virtual item in the embodiments of the present application is a detachable virtual item, which is composed of at least one item component, and the virtual trading platform provides transactions in units of item components, that is, users can directly list and purchase specific item components. When a user lists a complete virtual item, the terminal disassembles it based on the composition of the virtual item and lists the disassembled item components. When a user purchases a complete virtual item, the terminal obtains the required item components from the virtual trading platform according to the sorting of component pricing based on the type of the virtual item. On this basis, users can achieve free assembly and trading of virtual items.

[0056] For example, when a user performs a selection operation on a virtual sniper rifle (Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova Skladnaya, SVDS), the terminal determines that the target item components include a bolt, a grip, a magazine, a dust cover, a scope, a scope rail, etc. based on the composition of the SVDS rifle.

[0057] Schematically, Figure 3 shows a schematic diagram of an item listing interface. When the terminal receives a selection operation on a target virtual item, it displays the item listing interface 301, which shows the item model, item name of the target virtual item, and the component information of the corresponding target item components. The component information includes the component model and the component pricing, etc.

[0058] Step 202, in response to a pricing operation on the target virtual item, display the component pricing of each target item component in the item listing interface based on the item pricing of the target virtual item.

[0059] When a user sells a target virtual item, the user needs to set the item pricing of the target virtual item. In a possible implementation manner, since the user only cares about the total transaction price when selling a complete virtual item, that is, the total amount of virtual resources that the user can trade, and at the same time, in order to prevent the user from setting the price of a single component for targeted trading of components, after the user sets the item pricing of the target virtual item, the terminal automatically determines the component pricing of each target item component based on the item pricing and displays the component pricing through the item listing interface, facilitating the user to view the pricing of each target item component and enabling the user to adjust the item pricing according to the component pricing of the main core components.

[0060] Optionally, the terminal displays the recommended price of the item through the item listing interface. The user can directly list the item at the recommended price, or adjust the item price according to their needs and then perform the listing operation.

[0061] As Figure 3 shown, when a trigger operation on the item pricing control 302 is received, the terminal obtains the item pricing and displays the component pricing corresponding to each target item component in the component list 304 on the left side of the item listing interface 301.

[0062] Step 203: In response to the listing operation of the target virtual item, list each target item component on the virtual trading platform. Among them, the transactions on the virtual trading platform are based on item components, and the trading order of the same type of item components is determined in descending order based on the pricing.

[0063] When a listing operation of the target virtual item is received, the terminal lists each target item component on the virtual trading platform for trading according to the current component pricing. In a possible implementation manner, the background server stores and updates the platform information of the virtual trading platform. The platform information includes the item components and other virtual items listed on the platform, the component pricing corresponding to each item component, the listing account, and other information. After the terminal lists the target item components on the virtual trading platform, the background server updates the platform information of the virtual trading platform, so that when each terminal receives a purchase operation for the item to be purchased, it determines the item components to be purchased based on the updated platform information and conducts component transactions in descending order of the pricing of the item components on the virtual trading platform.

[0064] As Figure 3 shown, when a trigger operation on the listing control 303 is received, the terminal processes the listing of each target item component according to the component pricing displayed in the component list 304.

[0065] For the disassembly and listing of the target virtual item and trading in units of item components, on the one hand, relatively special virtual items will also be disassembled into basic components for trading, which can improve the success rate of virtual item trading and provide guarantee for the user's free assembly and trading of items. On the other hand, the item accessories of the virtual item obtained by the purchaser may come from different listing parties. The purchaser's terminal determines the lowest-priced component among each type of component as the component to be purchased, making the component source uncontrollable and able to avoid abnormal directed transactions. Since normal purchasers usually want to purchase the same type of component or item at the lowest price when purchasing items or components, the anti-directed trading mechanism of the embodiments of the present application will not affect normal trading behaviors.

[0066] To sum up, in the embodiments of the present application, by splitting the virtual props listed on the virtual trading platform, trading is carried out in units of prop components that constitute the virtual props, so that the virtual props purchased by the prop buyer are composed of various prop components, and the prop components cannot be purchased in a targeted manner. The trading order is obtained based on the descending order of pricing, that is, the terminal determines the lowest priced component of the same type of components for trading based on the component type of each target prop component. On the one hand, it can avoid the listing party from setting a higher prop price and the buyer from screening the prop price for targeted transactions. On the other hand, compared with the method of trading in units of complete virtual props in related technologies, the prop components during the transaction are determined by the terminal according to the component pricing of each component in the platform, and the source of the components is not controlled by the buyer. It can avoid the listing party from assembling special virtual props and the buyer from screening and obtaining targeted virtual props by setting corresponding prop parameters, effectively avoiding abnormal targeted transactions and maintaining the order and transaction fairness of the virtual trading platform.

[0067] Since the virtual trading platform conducts transactions from low prices to high prices, that is, when the buyer conducts transactions, he always purchases the prop component with the lowest component price among the same type of components, so the component pricing and quantity of other components in the virtual trading platform will affect the user's transaction results. In a possible implementation, the terminal displays the component pricing of each target prop component through the prop listing interface, as well as the virtual trading platform's recommended pricing for components and props, etc., to assist users in quickly determining the appropriate prop pricing. Figure 4 A flowchart of a method for listing virtual items provided by another exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. This embodiment is described by taking the method applied to a terminal supporting virtual transactions as an example, and the method includes the following steps.

[0068] Step 401, in response to a selection operation on a target virtual prop, component information of at least one target prop component is displayed in a prop listing interface, and the target virtual prop is composed of the target prop components.

[0069] The specific implementation of step 401 can refer to the above step 201, and the embodiment of the present application will not be repeated here.

[0070] Step 402 : Determine the prop recommended price of the target virtual prop based on the component type of the target prop component and the component recommended price corresponding to each component type.

[0071] After virtual items are put on the shelves, the component pricing of each item component is determined based on the item pricing set by the user. Therefore, to facilitate the user to quickly set a reasonable item pricing and improve the transaction success rate and efficiency of virtual items, the terminal determines the recommended item pricing of the target virtual item based on the component type of the target item component and the recommended component pricing of each type of component for the user's reference.

[0072] Regarding the determination method of the recommended item pricing, in a possible implementation manner, since the virtual trading platform conducts transactions in units of item components, the terminal can first determine the recommended component pricing of each target item component according to the transaction situation of the item components. The terminal obtains the component type (model) of the target item component, and then obtains the recommended component pricing of each target item component based on the component type. Since the target virtual item is composed of target item components, the terminal determines the sum of the recommended component pricing of all target item components as the recommended item pricing.

[0073] Regarding the acquisition method of the recommended component pricing, optionally, the terminal determines the average component pricing of the same type of components in the virtual trading platform that are in the put-on-shelf state as the recommended component pricing, or the terminal determines the average component pricing of the same type of components in the historical transaction records as the recommended component pricing (for example, for the target item component SVDS dust cover, the average pricing of the SVDS dust covers that were successfully traded on the previous trading day is determined as the recommended component pricing). The embodiments of the present application do not make any limitations in this regard.

[0074] Illustratively, for a target virtual item composed of target item component a, target item component b, and target item component c, the terminal first determines the recommended component pricing of each target item component based on the average pricing of the same type of item components on the previous trading day, and obtains that the recommended component pricing of target item component a is 100, the recommended component pricing of target item component b is 500, and the recommended component pricing of target item component c is 1000. Then, it is determined that the recommended item pricing of the target virtual item is 1600.

[0075] Step 403, display the recommended item pricing in the pricing input control on the item put-on-shelf interface.

[0076] In a possible real-time manner, when the terminal initially displays the item put-on-shelf interface, it automatically sets the item pricing of the target virtual item as the recommended item pricing and displays it through the pricing input control. The user can directly perform the put-on-shelf operation according to the recommended item pricing or further adjust it on this basis.

[0077] Step 404, in response to the trigger operation on the pricing input control in the item put-on-shelf interface, obtain the item pricing.

[0078] In a possible implementation, the user adjusts the item price of the target virtual item by triggering an operation on the price input control in the item listing interface. Optionally, the triggering operation is a price input operation, or a touch operation on the price adjustment sub-control in the price input control, or a drag operation on the price adjustment slider in the price input control, etc. The embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0079] As Figure 5 shown, the item listing interface 501 includes a price input control 502. When the terminal initially displays the item listing interface 501, the recommended item price 12319 of the target virtual item is displayed through the price input control 502. If the user directly performs a listing operation at this time, the terminal lists the target virtual components according to the recommended prices of each component corresponding to the recommended item price. The user can also re-enter the item price in the price input control 502, or adjust the price by triggering the price adjustment sub-controls on both sides of the price input control 502. Figure 5 Only some target item components are shown in

[0080] When receiving a triggering operation on the price input control, the terminal obtains the item price based on the input operation and displays the current item price through the price input control in real time.

[0081] Step 405: Determine the component price of the target item components based on the item price.

[0082] Since the virtual trading platform conducts transactions in units of item components, the terminal disassembles the target virtual item into target item components for listing. Therefore, after obtaining the item price set by the user, the terminal also needs to determine the component prices of each target item component based on the item price, and then list the target item components according to the component prices.

[0083] In a possible implementation, step 405 includes the following steps:

[0084] Step 405a: Determine the recommended component price based on the component type of the target item components.

[0085] For the method of obtaining the recommended component price, optionally, the terminal determines the average component price of the same type of components in the virtual trading platform that are in the listed state as the recommended component price, or the terminal determines the average component price of the same type of components in the historical transaction records as the recommended component price (for example, for the target item component SVDS dust cover, the average price of the SVDS dust covers that were successfully traded on the previous trading day is determined as the recommended component price). The embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0086] Step 405b: Determine the component price based on the component recommended price and the prop price.

[0087] Based on the component recommended prices of each target prop component, the terminal can estimate a prop recommended price corresponding to the target virtual prop, and then obtain the proportion of the price of each target prop component in the price of the complete target virtual prop. Therefore, based on this proportion and the prop price set by the user, the component price of each target prop component is determined. Step 405b specifically includes the following steps:

[0088] Step 1: Determine the prop recommended price of the target virtual prop based on the component recommended prices of each target prop component.

[0089] In a possible implementation, since the target virtual prop is composed of target prop components, the terminal determines the sum of the component recommended prices of all target prop components as the prop recommended price. For example, for a target virtual prop composed of target prop component a, target prop component b, and target prop component c, the terminal first determines the component recommended prices of each target prop component based on the average price of the same type of prop components on the previous trading day. The component recommended price of target prop component a is 100, the component recommended price of target prop component b is 500, and the component recommended price of target prop component c is 1000. Then, the prop recommended price of the target virtual prop is determined to be 1600.

[0090] Step 2: Determine the pricing ratio of each target prop component based on the prop recommended price and the component recommended price.

[0091] After the terminal obtains the component recommended prices of each target prop component and the prop recommended price corresponding to the complete target virtual prop, it can determine the approximate proportion of the price of the target prop component in the price of the target virtual prop, that is, the pricing ratio of the target prop component = component recommended price / prop recommended price.

[0092] Step 3: Determine the component price of each target prop component based on the pricing ratio and the prop price.

[0093] After the terminal determines the pricing ratio of the target prop component, based on the pricing ratio and the prop price, it calculates the component price of the target prop component. In a possible implementation, the calculation formula for the component price is: component price = prop price * pricing ratio = prop price * (component recommended price / prop recommended price).

[0094] Step 406: Associatively display the component price and the component recommended price of the target prop component in the prop listing interface.

[0095] To facilitate the user in grasping the pricing of each target prop component and enabling the user to adjust the prop pricing of the target virtual prop based on the pricing of the core component, the terminal reflects the component pricing and the recommended component pricing of each target prop component through the prop listing interface.

[0096] Schematically, as Figure 5 shown, the prop listing interface 501 includes a prop component list 503, and in this prop component list 503, the corresponding relationship between the target prop components and the component pricing and the recommended component pricing is displayed. After receiving a trigger operation on the prop pricing control 502, the terminal re-determines the component pricing based on the prop pricing indicated by this trigger operation and updates the component pricing in the prop listing interface 501.

[0097] Based on the prop pricing set by the user, the terminal calculates and displays the component pricing of each component, and at the same time, the recommended component pricing of each component is associated and displayed, facilitating the user in grasping the pricing of each target prop component, so as to adjust the prop pricing based on the pricing of the core component, enabling the user to quickly sell the target virtual prop at a reasonable price and improving the prop listing efficiency.

[0098] Step 407: In response to a price viewing operation, display the prop pricing range of the target virtual prop and the number of props of the same type within each prop pricing range in the virtual trading platform in the prop listing interface.

[0099] In the embodiments of the present application, the terminal of the prop purchaser conducts component transactions according to the rule of descending component pricing, that is, always determines the prop component with the lowest component pricing of the same type as the component to be purchased. Therefore, the component pricing of other components of the same type in the virtual trading platform will also affect the user's trading result. For example, if the prop price set by the user is relatively low, resulting in relatively low component pricing for each target prop component, although the transaction can be successful in a short time, the amount of virtual resources obtained by the user in the transaction is relatively small; if the prop price set by the user is relatively high, resulting in relatively high component pricing for each target prop component, it may take a longer time or be able to be traded successfully only when the purchase demand is large. Even in some cases, due to a large number of low-price components, the user's target virtual component may never be traded. Therefore, to further assist the user in determining a reasonable prop pricing, when receiving a price viewing operation, the terminal displays the prop pricing range of the target virtual prop and the number of props in each prop pricing range in the prop listing interface.

[0100] Based on the prop pricing range and the number of props in each prop pricing range, the user can learn about the price distribution of virtual props of the same type in the virtual trading platform, and thus quickly determine an appropriate prop price according to the price distribution and their own trading needs. On the other hand, the prop pricing range and the number of props in each prop pricing range can also reflect the market demand situation in the virtual trading platform, thus guiding the user to set the prop price in the prop pricing range with a larger number of props, promoting the virtual trading efficiency and the pricing order of the virtual trading platform, and further increasing the difficulty for the user to conduct targeted trading and obtain a large amount of virtual resources by setting a higher prop price on the premise of trading in the component pricing order.

[0101] In a possible implementation manner, step 407 includes the following steps:

[0102] Step 407a, in response to a price viewing operation, determine the component pricing range of each target prop component based on the component type of the target prop component.

[0103] Since the virtual trading platform conducts transactions in units of prop components, the component pricing of the prop components has practical reference value. Therefore, when receiving a price viewing operation, the terminal first determines the component pricing range corresponding to the target prop component, and then obtains the prop pricing range of the target virtual prop based on the component pricing range.

[0104] In a possible implementation manner, the component pricing range is calculated based on the component recommended pricing and the pricing range interval corresponding to the component. Among them, the component recommended pricing is the average component pricing of the same type of components (for example, the average component pricing of the same type of components that were successfully traded on the previous trading day), and the pricing range interval is the price range span preset by the developer based on the component trading situation. For example, the component recommended pricing of the Fremington sight rail is 130, and the pricing range interval is 4. The terminal determines that the component pricing range of the Fremington sight rail includes 126 - 130, 131 - 135, 136 - 140, and so on.

[0105] Different types of prop components need to be obtained based on the prop recommended pricing and the pricing range interval of that type of prop. Therefore, the terminal needs to determine the component pricing range of each target prop component based on the component type of the target prop component.

[0106] Step 407b, based on the component pricing range, determine the prop pricing range of the target virtual prop.

[0107] After the terminal determines the component pricing ranges of each target prop component, it can obtain the prop pricing range of the target virtual prop. In a possible implementation manner, similar to the manner of determining the component pricing range, the terminal obtains the prop pricing range based on the prop recommended price of the target virtual prop and the pricing range interval. Specifically, the pricing range interval of the target virtual prop is the sum of the pricing range intervals of all target prop components, that is, prop pricing range interval = ∑ component pricing range intervals. The terminal takes the prop recommended price as the benchmark and adds or subtracts k times the pricing range interval (k is a positive integer) to obtain the boundaries of each prop pricing range.

[0108] Illustratively, the target virtual prop is composed of target prop component a and target prop component b. The component recommended pricing of target prop component a is 1000, and the pricing range interval is 100. Then the component pricing range of target prop component a includes 901 - 1000, 1001 - 1100, 1101 - 1200; the component recommended pricing of target prop component b is 500, and the pricing range interval is 20. Then the component pricing range of target prop component b includes 481 - 500, 501 - 520, 521 - 540. Then the prop recommended pricing of the target virtual prop is 1500, and the pricing range interval is 120. The prop pricing range of the target virtual prop includes 1381 - 1500, 1501 - 1620, 1621 - 1740.

[0109] Step 407c, based on the component pricing range, the prop pricing range, and the number of prop components within each component pricing range in the virtual trading platform, determine the number of props corresponding to each prop pricing range.

[0110] The virtual trading platform conducts transactions in units of prop components. When a user purchases a complete virtual prop, the terminal obtains the component with the lowest price of the same type from the platform based on the prop components required for the virtual prop. That is, the virtual prop is disassembled and put on the shelves, and the transaction sources and destinations are not controlled by the user. For the same prop component, the target virtual prop corresponding to it when it is put on the shelves may be different from the virtual prop to be purchased during the transaction. Since the virtual trading platform is put on the shelves in the form of components, the terminal cannot directly obtain the clear number of props within each prop pricing range, but can obtain the number of components within each component pricing range. In a possible implementation manner, the terminal determines the number of props corresponding to each prop pricing range based on the component pricing range and the number of prop components within each component pricing range. Step 407c specifically includes the following steps:

[0111] Step four, based on the correspondence between the prop pricing range of the target virtual prop and the component pricing ranges of each target prop component, determine the number of components and the component unit price corresponding to the props of the same type within the prop pricing range.

[0112] Since the pricing range of the target virtual item is determined based on the component recommended pricing and the pricing range interval corresponding to the component, the pricing range of the item corresponds one-to-one with the pricing ranges of each target item component. The terminal determines the quantity and unit price of each type of component corresponding to each item pricing range based on the corresponding relationship between the item pricing range and the component pricing range. Among them, the unit price of the component can be estimated as the lower bound of the component pricing range, or the upper bound of the component pricing range, or the average component pricing within the range, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0113]

[0114] Table 1

[0115] Illustratively, as shown in Table 1, the target virtual item consists of target item component A, target item component B, and target item component C. For the item pricing range of 1570 - 1700, there are 50 A, 1 B, and 350 C, and the unit price of A is 900, the unit price of B is 480, and the unit price of C is 190; for the item pricing range of 1700 - 1830, there are 50 A, 2 B, and 890 C, and the unit price of A is 1000, the unit price of B is 500, and the unit price of C is 200.

[0116] Step Five, based on the quantity of each type of item component and the unit price of each type of item component, determine the total price of items of the same type within the item pricing range.

[0117] The terminal estimates the total price of items of the same type within the item pricing range based on the quantity of each type of item component and the unit price of each type of item component. That is, the total price of the item = ∑(unit price of the component * quantity of the component). Taking Table 1 as an example, for the item pricing range of 1700 - 1830, its total price of the item = 1000 * 100 + 500 * 5 + 200 * 500 = 202500.

[0118] Step Six, based on the total price of the item corresponding to the item pricing range and the unit price of the item corresponding to the item pricing range, determine the quantity of the item corresponding to the item pricing range.

[0119] The terminal determines the quantity of the item corresponding to the item pricing range based on the total price of the item corresponding to the item pricing range and the unit price of the item corresponding to the item pricing range. That is, the quantity of the item = total price of the item / unit price of the item = ∑(unit price of the component * quantity of the component) / unit price of the item. Among them, the unit price of the item is the lower bound of the item pricing range or the upper bound of the item pricing range or the intermediate value of the item pricing range, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0120] Based on the example in step 5, for the prop pricing range of 1700 - 1830, the number of props = 184000 / 1700 ≈ 119.1. Round up to determine the number of props as 120 (or round down).

[0121]

[0122] Table 2

[0123] The number of props calculated in the above way can, on the one hand, roughly determine the price distribution of virtual props obtained according to the assembly method of the target virtual prop with a relatively low computational complexity. On the other hand, calculating the number of props based on the price ratio of each target virtual prop makes the distribution of the number of props close to the price distribution of the prop components with a higher component pricing. Since the prop components with a higher component pricing are usually the core components that make up the prop, the distribution of the number of props can represent the price distribution of virtual props, making the number of props closer to the actual number of virtual props listed by players.

[0124] Step 407d: Display the prop pricing range and the number of props corresponding to the prop pricing range in the prop listing interface.

[0125] After the terminal determines the prop pricing range and the number of props corresponding to the prop pricing range, it is displayed through the prop listing interface. As Figure 6 shown, the prop listing interface 601 includes a price range list 602. The price range list 602 displays the prop price range corresponding to the target virtual prop and the number of props corresponding to the prop pricing range, so as to assist the user in pricing based on the price distribution of virtual props in the virtual trading platform.

[0126] Step 408: In response to the listing operation of the target virtual prop, list each target prop component on the virtual trading platform. Among them, the transactions on the virtual trading platform are based on prop components, and the trading order of the same type of prop components is determined in descending order based on the pricing.

[0127] For the specific implementation manner of step 408, reference can be made to the above step 203, and details are not described herein again in this embodiment of the present application.

[0128] In a possible implementation, the user can list the prop components separately. Similar to the way of listing virtual props, in response to the selection operation of the target prop component, the terminal displays the component listing interface corresponding to the target prop component; in response to the pricing operation of the target prop component, the component price of the target prop component is displayed in the component listing interface, and in response to the listing operation of the target prop component, the terminal lists the target prop component on the virtual trading platform according to the component price. Among them, when performing the pricing operation, the user can set the unit price and quantity of the target prop component, and the terminal displays the unit price and total price of the component through the component listing interface, and also displays the recommended component price, component price range, and the quantity of components in each component price range corresponding to the same type of components in the component listing interface, etc.

[0129] In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal displays the component prices of each target prop component, as well as information such as the recommended prices of components and props on the virtual trading platform through the prop listing interface, to assist the user in quickly determining a suitable prop price; moreover, the terminal also displays the prop price range of the target virtual prop and the quantity of props in each prop price range through the prop listing interface, showing the price distribution of the same type of virtual props in the virtual trading platform to the user, enabling the user to quickly determine a suitable prop price according to the price distribution and their own trading needs. On the other hand, the prop price range and the quantity of props in each prop price range can also reflect the market demand situation in the virtual trading platform, thereby guiding the user to set the prop price in the prop price range with a larger quantity of props, promoting the virtual trading efficiency and the pricing order of the virtual trading platform, and further increasing the difficulty for the user to conduct targeted transactions and obtain a large amount of virtual resources by setting a higher prop price on the premise of trading in the order of component prices.

[0130] When the transaction of the target virtual prop is completed, or the target virtual prop is taken off the shelf, the terminal generates corresponding notification information based on the settlement situation of the background server to notify the user of the transaction result of the target virtual prop. Figure 7 The flowchart of the method for listing virtual props provided by another exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. This embodiment is described by taking the application of this method to a terminal supporting virtual trading as an example, and the method includes the following steps.

[0131] Step 701, in response to the selection operation of the target virtual prop, display the component information of at least one target prop component in the prop listing interface, and the target virtual prop is composed of the target prop components.

[0132] Step 702, in response to the pricing operation of the target virtual prop, based on the prop price of the target virtual prop, display the component prices of each target prop component in the prop listing interface.

[0133] For the specific implementation manners of steps 701 to 702, reference may be made to the above steps 201 to 202, and details are not described herein again in the embodiments of the present application.

[0134] Step 703: In response to a triggering operation on the duration setting control in the virtual item listing interface, obtain the listing duration of the target virtual item.

[0135] In a possible implementation manner, the user can set the listing duration of the target virtual item. When the listing duration is reached and not all of the target item components corresponding to the target virtual item are successfully traded, the terminal takes down the target item components that are not successfully traded.

[0136] Schematically, as Figure 3 shown, the virtual item listing interface 301 includes a duration setting control 305. The user can set the corresponding listing duration by selecting and triggering the duration setting control 305.

[0137] Step 704: In response to the listing operation of the target virtual item, list each target item component on the virtual trading platform according to the listing duration.

[0138] When receiving the listing operation of the target virtual item, the terminal lists each target item component on the virtual trading platform according to the listing duration. That is, the terminal sends the listing duration of the target item component to the background server, and the background server is responsible for executing the settlement process when the listing duration is reached.

[0139] Step 705: Receive a transaction completion notification sent by the background server.

[0140] The transaction completion notification includes a prompt message indicating the successful transaction of the target virtual item. The background server is used to transfer virtual resources to the target account corresponding to the target virtual item according to the component price when the target item component is successfully traded, and to send a prompt message to the target account when all target item components are successfully traded.

[0141] In a possible implementation manner, the background server is responsible for processing the trading logic in the virtual trading platform. When all target item components corresponding to the target virtual item listed by a certain account are successfully traded, the background server sends a transaction completion notification to the account and transfers virtual resources to the account (or transfers virtual resources according to the component price when each target item component is successfully traded). The terminal displays a prompt message based on the transaction completion notification, for example, showing a prompt message "All components of the SVDS sniper rifle 7.89KG have been sold, and 12319 gold coins have been obtained" to the user in the form of a virtual email.

[0142] Step 706: In response to the take-down operation of the target virtual item, receive a settlement notification sent by the background server.

[0143] Among them, the settlement notice contains prompt information for indicating the traded components and untraded components.

[0144] In a possible implementation manner, when the shelf life is not reached and not all of the target prop components corresponding to the target virtual prop are successfully traded, the user can perform a delisting operation on the target virtual prop through the prop delisting interface. As Figure 8 shown, the prop delisting interface 801 displays the listed items corresponding to the currently logged-in account, and each listed item corresponds to a delisting control 802. When a trigger operation on the delisting control 802 corresponding to the target virtual prop is received, the terminal sends a delisting request to the background server, and the background server performs settlement based on the trading situation of the target prop components corresponding to the target virtual prop, and feeds back a settlement notice to the terminal.

[0145] The settlement notice contains prompt information for indicating the traded components and untraded components, so that the user can know the trading situation of the target prop components. For example, the terminal displays the prompt information in the form of a virtual email, and the virtual email interface contains a list of traded components, a list of untraded components, and the total amount of virtual resources obtained from the transaction.

[0146] Step 707, in response to reaching the shelf life, receive the settlement notice sent by the background server.

[0147] In a possible implementation manner, when the shelf life is reached, the terminal sends a delisting request to the background server, so that the background server performs settlement processing based on the trading situation of the target prop components and delists the target prop components that are not successfully traded. Specifically, step 707 includes the following steps:

[0148] Step 707a, in response to reaching the shelf life, send a delisting request to the background server.

[0149] Among them, the background server is used to recycle the untraded components that meet the recycling conditions based on the delisting request, generate a settlement notice based on the recycled components, traded components, and un-recycled components, and the recycling conditions include that the component pricing is lower than the component recommended pricing. The component recommended pricing is obtained based on the average pricing of the same type of components in the virtual trading platform.

[0150] The user's active delisting means that the user wants to stop trading the target virtual item. At this time, the background server directly returns the untraded components to the user's account and transfers the virtual resources corresponding to the traded components to the user's account. When the target virtual item is delisted due to reaching the listing duration, it is not an active delisting by the user. That is, at this time, the user usually wants to sell all the target item components successfully as much as possible. Therefore, in a possible implementation, the untraded components that meet the recycling conditions are recycled, and then the virtual resources are transferred based on the component pricing of the traded components and the recycled components, and the un-recycled components are delisted.

[0151] For example, the target virtual item is composed of target item components A, B, and C. When the listing duration is reached, A has been obtained by another account using virtual resources and the transaction is successful, B and C are untraded, and the component pricing of B is lower than the average pricing of the same type of components in the virtual trading platform, and the component pricing of C is higher than the average pricing of the same type of components in the virtual trading platform. Then the background server recycles B, that is, the virtual trading platform uses virtual resources to trade with the listing account corresponding to component B, and for component C, it is delisted and returned to the component library of the corresponding account.

[0152] Step 707b, receive the settlement notice sent by the background server.

[0153] The terminal receives the settlement notice sent by the background server and displays it. For example, the terminal displays the settlement notice in the form of a virtual email. Since the user does not need to know the whereabouts of the target item components, only the transaction success list and the transaction failure list are displayed in the virtual email interface. Among them, the transaction success list contains the traded components and the recycled components, and the transaction failure list contains the un-recycled components.

[0154] In the embodiments of the present application, when the transaction of the target virtual item is completed or the target virtual item is delisted, the terminal generates corresponding notification information based on the settlement situation of the background server to notify the user of the transaction result of the target virtual item; in addition, for the case of timeout delisting, the virtual trading platform recycles the item components with reasonable pricing to help the user complete the transaction of the target item components as much as possible.

[0155] In the above embodiments, the component transactions and the settlement of transaction results are executed by the background server. In a possible implementation manner, after receiving the listing operation, the terminal sends the listing component information of the target prop component (including the listing account, component type, component pricing, listing duration, etc.) to the background server. The background server receives the listing component information sent by the terminal and updates the component pool of the virtual trading platform based on the component information. After receiving the purchase operation, the terminal sends the purchase component information of the component to be purchased (including the component type, number of components, purchase account, etc.) to the background server. The background server receives the purchase component information sent by the terminal and determines the component to be purchased from the component pool of the virtual trading platform. In response to receiving the purchase request for the component to be purchased sent by the terminal, the background server transfers the virtual resources of the purchase account to the listing account corresponding to the component to be purchased based on the component pricing corresponding to the component to be purchased. In response to the listing duration of the virtual prop in the virtual trading platform reaching the listing duration set by the listing account, or, upon receiving the delisting request sent by the listing account, the background server generates a settlement notice and sends it to the listing account based on the transaction record of the prop component corresponding to the virtual prop. In response to all transactions of the target prop component corresponding to the target virtual prop in the virtual trading platform being completed, the background server generates a transaction completion notice and sends it to the listing account corresponding to the target prop component.

[0156] The above embodiments illustrate the process when the terminal lists virtual props or prop components. On the other hand, for the purchaser of virtual props or prop components, the terminal conducts transactions based on the lowest pricing of the same type of prop components, further preventing directed trading behavior. Figure 9 The flowchart of the method for purchasing virtual props provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. This embodiment is described by taking the method being applied to a terminal supporting virtual transactions as an example. The method includes the following steps.

[0157] Step 901, in response to a setting operation for the virtual prop to be purchased, display the component information of at least one prop component to be purchased in the prop purchase interface. The virtual prop to be purchased is composed of the prop components to be purchased, and the component pricing of the prop components to be purchased is the lowest pricing of the same type of prop components in the virtual trading platform.

[0158] The virtual trading platform conducts transactions in units of prop components. When receiving a setting operation for the virtual prop to be purchased, the terminal determines the required prop components, that is, the prop components to be purchased, based on the composition of the virtual prop to be purchased, and displays the component information (such as component name, component pricing, etc.) of each prop component to be purchased through the prop purchase interface.

[0159] In a possible implementation, the virtual trading platform provides virtual props of a preset type. Users can select from the virtual props provided by the virtual trading platform to achieve quick purchases. Users can also actively set the component types of each prop component in the virtual prop to be purchased, enabling the terminal to determine the composition of the virtual prop to be purchased.

[0160] For example, when the user sets the firearm model, the terminal determines the core component type, and the terminal automatically displays the core prop components corresponding to the firearm model, as well as other default prop components used to form the virtual prop. The user can manually change the default prop components and add more non-core prop components, etc.

[0161] Optionally, the terminal displays all the prop components that make up the virtual prop to be purchased through the prop purchase interface. Alternatively, based on the component composition of the virtual prop to be purchased and the prop components already existing in the component library of the currently logged-in account, the terminal determines the prop components to be purchased as the component compositions that do not exist in the existing prop components. For example, if the virtual prop to be purchased consists of prop component a, prop component b, and prop component c, and there is an unused prop component a in the component library of the currently logged-in account, the terminal displays prop component b and prop component c through the prop purchase interface. As Figure 10 shown, the component information of 3 prop components to be purchased is displayed in the prop purchase interface 1001, including the component model, component name, and component pricing.

[0162] For each prop component to be purchased, what the terminal displays is the component with the lowest pricing among the prop components of the same type. For example, in the composition of the virtual prop SVDS marksman rifle to be purchased, it includes the SVDS standard dust cover. There is an SVDS standard dust cover priced at 500, two SVDS standard dust covers priced at 590, and an SVDS standard dust cover priced at 600 in the virtual trading platform. Then the terminal displays the SVDS standard dust cover priced at 500 through the prop purchase interface.

[0163] Step 902, in response to the purchase operation of the virtual prop to be purchased, based on the component pricing of each prop component to be purchased, perform virtual resource transfer with the virtual trading platform.

[0164] When receiving the purchase operation of the virtual prop to be purchased, the terminal transfers the virtual resources of the currently logged-in account based on the component pricing of each prop component to be purchased. In a possible implementation, the terminal transfers the virtual resources to the virtual trading platform (which is responsible for operation and information maintenance by the background server), and the virtual trading platform transfers the virtual resources to the corresponding user account based on the component source (i.e., the listed account) of the prop component to be purchased.

[0165] As Figure 10As shown, when a trigger operation on the item purchase control 1002 in the item purchase interface 1001 is received, the terminal transfers virtual resources with the virtual trading platform based on the component pricing of each item to be purchased and sold.

[0166] Step 903, in the case where the virtual resource transfer is successful, obtain each item component to be purchased.

[0167] In response to the successful virtual resource transfer, the terminal obtains each item component to be purchased, and automatically assembles each item component to be purchased according to the assembly method of the virtual item to be purchased, and transfers the assembled virtual item to the item library of the currently logged-in account.

[0168] In another possible implementation manner, the user can also purchase a single item component. As Figure 11 shown, in response to a selection operation on the item component to be purchased, the terminal displays the component purchase interface 1101. When a trigger operation on the quantity input control 1102 is received, the terminal determines the quantity of the component to be purchased based on this trigger operation. The component average price and total price of the item component to be purchased are displayed in the component purchase interface 1101, and the component average price and total price are determined based on the component type and quantity of the item component to be purchased. For example, if the component to be purchased is the Fremington Aluminum Sling Rail 0.02KG, and there is one component priced at 130, two components priced at 142, and one component priced at 150 in the virtual trading platform, then when the quantity of the component is 1, the terminal determines the component priced at 130 as the component to be purchased, and both the component average price and total price are 130. When the quantity of the component is 2, the terminal determines one component priced at 130 and one component priced at 142 as the components to be purchased, the component average price is 136, and the total price is 272. In addition, the terminal also displays the price distribution of components of the same type in the virtual trading platform through the component price list 1103 in the component purchase interface 1101, that is, the component pricing range corresponding to components of the same type and the quantity of components corresponding to each component pricing range.

[0169] To sum up, in the embodiments of the present application, by splitting the virtual props listed on the virtual trading platform, trading is carried out in units of prop components that constitute the virtual props, so that the virtual props purchased by the prop buyer are composed of various prop components, and the prop components cannot be purchased in a targeted manner. The trading order is obtained based on the descending order of pricing, that is, the terminal determines the lowest priced component of the same type of components for trading based on the component type of each target prop component. On the one hand, it can avoid the listing party from setting a higher prop price and the buyer from screening the prop price for targeted transactions. On the other hand, compared with the method of trading in units of complete virtual props in related technologies, the prop components during the transaction are determined by the terminal according to the component pricing of each component in the platform, and the source of the components is not controlled by the buyer. It can avoid the listing party from assembling special virtual props and the buyer from screening and obtaining targeted virtual props by setting corresponding prop parameters, effectively avoiding abnormal targeted transactions and maintaining the order and transaction fairness of the virtual trading platform.

[0170] Figure 12 This is a structural block diagram of a virtual props shelf device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application, and the device is composed of the following:

[0173] The component listing module 1203 is used to list each target prop component on the virtual trading platform in response to the listing operation of the target virtual prop, wherein the transaction in the virtual trading platform is based on the prop component, and the transaction order of the same type of prop components is determined based on the descending order of pricing.

[0174] Optionally, the second display module 1202 includes:

[0214] To sum up, in the embodiments of the present application, by splitting the virtual props listed on the virtual trading platform, trading is carried out in units of prop components that constitute the virtual props, so that the virtual props purchased by the prop buyer are composed of various prop components, and the prop components cannot be purchased in a targeted manner. The trading order is obtained based on the descending order of pricing, that is, the terminal determines the lowest priced component of the same type of components for trading based on the component type of each target prop component. On the one hand, it can avoid the listing party from setting a higher prop price and the buyer from screening the prop price for targeted transactions. On the other hand, compared with the method of trading in units of complete virtual props in related technologies, the prop components during the transaction are determined by the terminal according to the component pricing of each component in the platform, and the source of the components is not controlled by the buyer. It can avoid the listing party from assembling special virtual props and the buyer from screening and obtaining targeted virtual props by setting corresponding prop parameters, effectively avoiding abnormal targeted transactions and maintaining the order and transaction fairness of the virtual trading platform.
