Obviously, the drawings described below are only embodiments of the present application. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative work.

[0055] The principles and spirit of the present application will be described below with reference to several exemplary embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are provided only to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present application more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present application to those skilled in the art.

[0056] According to the implementation manner of the present application, an information processing method, device, electronic device and storage medium are proposed.

[0057] It should be understood herein that any number of elements in the drawings is for illustration rather than limitation, and any naming is only for distinction rather than having any limiting meaning.

[0058] The principles and spirit of the present application are explained in detail below with reference to several representative implementations of the present application. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0060] In the prior art, when a problem occurs in any area of ​​a game world scene, all players in the game world scene are directly kicked offline, and the game world scene is recreated and the game players re-enter the game world scene. Simply kicking the players offline and then letting the game players actively log in again can indeed ensure that there are no blocking problems in the game world scene, that is, the player characters will not be unable to reach those damaged area scenes. However, this approach greatly affects the players' gaming experience and causes many unaffected players to be kicked offline.

[0061] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides an information processing method, which specifically includes:

[0062] A first target scene area with an abnormal operation is determined from multiple scene areas through a heartbeat mechanism. When it is determined that a player character in other scene areas in the target game world scene where the first target scene area is located is about to enter the first target scene area, a second target scene area is determined from multiple scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area, and the player character is transferred to the second target scene area, wherein the multiple scene areas respectively belong to different game world scenes other than the target game world scene. Therefore, when the first target area has an abnormal operation, when a player character in the same game world scene wants to enter the first target area, the player character can enter the second target scene area of ​​other game world scenes corresponding to the first target area. Since there is no obvious difference between entering the second target scene area and entering the first target scene area for the game player, seamless disaster recovery for the game player can be achieved, thereby ensuring that the game world scene does not have blocking problems while preventing the player from being affected by the abnormal operation of some scene areas.

[0063] After introducing the basic principles of the present application, various non-limiting implementation methods of the present application are described in detail below.

[0064] Application Scenario Overview

[0065] In some specific application scenarios, the information processing method of the present application can be applied to any game system that divides the game world scene into multiple scene areas.

[0066] In some specific application scenarios, the information processing method of the present application can be directly applied to run locally or in a cloud server. When running on a cloud server, the acquired data to be processed is sent to the cloud server via the network, and the server processes the data to be processed using the information processing method of the present application, and sends the processing results to the local computer via the network.

[0067] The following describes the information processing method according to the exemplary implementation of the present application in conjunction with specific application scenarios. It should be noted that the above application scenarios are only shown to facilitate understanding of the spirit and principles of the present application, and the implementation of the present application is not limited in this regard. On the contrary, the implementation of the present application can be applied to any applicable scenario.

[0068] Exemplary Methods

[0069] refer to Figure 1, is a schematic diagram of a game scene structure of an embodiment of the present application, wherein the game scene includes multiple game world scenes (game world scene 1 to game world scene x) running in parallel, each game world scene includes multiple scene areas, for example, game world scene 1 includes scene area A1, scene area B1, scene area C1...scene area n1, and these scene areas together form a complete game world scene. It should be noted that Figure 1 The multiple game world scenes running in parallel belong to the same game world scene, that is, there are multiple identical game world scenes in the present application at the same time, and these identical game world scenes are divided into multiple scene areas, and the scene areas of any game world scene can be found in other game world scenes. For example, Figure 1 Although scene area A1 and scene area A2 belong to different game world scenes, the two scene areas are exactly the same in shape and appearance. Therefore, when a player character wants to enter scene area A1, the player character is actively assigned to scene area A2 without any feeling to the player.

[0070] refer to Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides an information processing method, which is applied in a game scenario and includes the following steps:

[0071] S101, determining a first target scene area with abnormal operation from a plurality of scene areas through a heartbeat mechanism.

[0072] In specific implementation, the first target scene area with abnormal operation is first determined from multiple scene areas through the heartbeat mechanism. The multiple scene areas can belong to the same game world scene or to different game world scenes without limitation. The heartbeat mechanism is a mechanism that sends a custom structure (heartbeat packet) at regular intervals to let the other party know that it is still running normally to ensure the validity of the connection. The heartbeat mechanism can be used to know which scene areas have abnormalities (damaged or stopped running), and then determine the first target scene area.

[0073] S102, in response to determining that a player character in other scene areas in the target game world scene where the first target scene area is located is about to enter the first target scene area, determining a second target scene area from a plurality of scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area, wherein the plurality of scene areas respectively belong to different game world scenes other than the target game world scene.

[0074] In a specific implementation, after determining the first target scene area, if it is found that a certain scene area has been running abnormally, the target game world scene where the first target scene area is located is first determined. When the player characters in other scene areas in the target game world scene are about to enter the first target scene area, the second target scene area is determined from the multiple scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area. Optionally, the second target scene area can be determined randomly. The multiple scene areas belong to different game world scenes respectively and none of them belongs to the target game world scene. For example, when Figure 1 If the scene area A1 in the game world is running abnormally (has been damaged), and the player character in the scene area B1 wants to enter the scene area A1, the player character is directly assigned to any scene area from the scene area A2 to the scene area Ax, thereby avoiding all the player characters in the game world scene 1 from going offline and logging in again, and at the same time, the player characters will not be unable to reach some of their own regional scenes.

[0075] In some embodiments, determining the second target scene area from a plurality of scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area specifically includes:

[0076] Determine a third target scene area among the multiple scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area;

[0077] In response to determining that the number of online player characters in the game world scene where the third target scene area is located is less than a first preset threshold, the third target scene area is determined as the second target scene area.

[0078] In the specific implementation, considering that each game world scene has a maximum player character carrying capacity, in order to avoid the game world scene from overloading and crashing, when determining the second target scene area, a third target scene area is first determined. Optionally, the third target scene area can be randomly determined from multiple scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area. After determining the third target scene area, it is further determined whether the number of online player characters in the game world scene where the third target scene area is located belongs to a safe value, that is, less than a first preset threshold value. The first preset threshold value can be set as needed and is not limited here. If the number of online player characters in the game world scene where the three target scene areas are located is less than the first preset threshold value, the third target scene area is determined as the second target scene area.

[0079] In order to make the number of online player characters in each game world scene as balanced as possible, in some embodiments, a third target scene area is determined from a plurality of scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area;

[0080] In response to determining that the game world scene where the third target scene area is located is the game world scene with the least number of online player characters among all game world scenes except the target game world scene, the third target scene area is determined as the second target scene area.

[0081] S103: Transfer the player character to the second target scene area.

[0082] In specific implementation, after determining the second target scene area, the player character who wants to enter the first target area can be transferred to the second target scene area. Optionally, the specific position where the player character enters the second target scene area can be set as needed, which is not limited here. Optionally, the specific position can be randomly generated or a fixed position can be set.

[0083] In order to further achieve seamless disaster recovery for game players, when determining the specific position in the second target scene area, the position where the player character originally entered the first target scene area can be referenced. Figure 1 , assuming that scene area A1 is operating abnormally, the player character in scene area B1 is about to enter scene area A1, and the second target scene area is determined to be A2. At this time, the player character should enter scene area A1 from the junction of scene area A1 and scene area B1. In order to avoid the game player feeling uncomfortable, the player character should also enter A2 from the junction of A2 and B2. Therefore, in some embodiments, transferring the player character to the second target scene area specifically includes:

[0084] Determine a fourth target scene area where a player character that is about to enter the first target scene area is located;

[0085] Determining a fifth target scene area corresponding to the fourth target scene area in the game world scene where the second target scene area is located;

[0086] The player character is transferred to a boundary area in the second target scene area adjacent to the fifth target scene area.

[0087] When all scene areas of the game world scene are operating normally, in the same game world scene, when a player character looks at the border of one scene area to another adjacent scene area, he can see the border of the other scene area, and there may be other player characters at the border of the other scene area. Figure 1, when scene area A1 is operating abnormally, the boundary of scene area A1 seen by the player character in scene area B1 before entering scene area A1 is just a default background scene, and there is no player character in the default background scene. If the player character who wants to enter scene area A1 from scene area B1 is directly randomly assigned to scene area A2, it cannot be guaranteed that the number of player characters at the junction of scene area A2 and scene area B2 is 0 or very small. If the player character suddenly finds that there are many more player characters after entering scene area A2 from scene area B1, he will feel seriously uncomfortable. In order to alleviate this situation and take into account the load of each game world scene, in some embodiments, determining the second target scene area from multiple scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area specifically includes:

[0088] Determine a third target scene area among the multiple scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area;

[0089] Determining a sixth target scene area corresponding to the fourth target scene area in the game world scene where the third target scene area is located;

[0090] In response to determining that the number of online players in the boundary area of ​​the third target scene area adjacent to the sixth target scene area is less than a second preset threshold, and the number of online player characters in the game world scene where the third target scene area is located is less than a first preset threshold, the third target scene area is determined as the second target scene area.

[0091] It should be noted that the second preset threshold can be set as needed and is not limited here.

[0092] In some embodiments, determining the second target scene area from a plurality of scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area specifically includes:

[0093] For each scene area corresponding to the first target scene area, determining a sixth target scene area corresponding to the fourth target scene area in the game world scene where each scene area is located, and determining a boundary area adjacent to each scene area and the sixth target scene area;

[0094] A target boundary area with the least number of online player characters is determined from all boundary areas adjacent to the sixth target scene area, and the scene area where the target boundary area is located is determined as the second target scene area.

[0095] In specific implementation, since it cannot be guaranteed that every time the player character is transferred to the boundary area adjacent to the fifth target scene area in the second target scene area, a scene area in which the number of online players in the boundary area is less than the second preset threshold can be found, in order to minimize the impact of changes in the number of people on game players, the scene area in which the target boundary area with the least number of online player characters is located can be determined from the multiple scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area as the second target scene area.

[0096] In order to take into account the load of the game world scene and the impact of the change in the number of player characters in the scene area on the game players, in some embodiments, determining the second target scene area from multiple scene areas corresponding to the target scene area specifically includes:

[0097] For each scene area corresponding to the first target scene area, in response to the number of online player characters in the game world scene where each scene area is located being less than a first preset threshold, determining each scene area as a candidate scene area;

[0098] For each candidate scene area among the multiple candidate scene areas, determining a sixth target scene area corresponding to the fourth target scene area in the game world scene where each candidate scene area is located, and determining a boundary area adjacent to each candidate scene area and the sixth target scene area;

[0099] A target boundary area with the least number of online player characters is determined from all boundary areas adjacent to the sixth target scene area, and the scene area where the target boundary area is located is determined as the second target scene area.

[0100] In some embodiments, after determining the first target scene area with abnormal operation from the plurality of scene areas through the heartbeat mechanism, the method further comprises:

[0101] All player characters in the first target scene area are evenly distributed to the multiple scene areas, and the first target scene area is recreated in the target game world scene.

[0102] In specific implementation, after determining the abnormally operating first target scene area, all player characters in the first target scene area need to be evenly distributed to the multiple scene areas, so as to ensure that these player characters can continue to play the game, and try to ensure that the number of player characters in each game world is the same. After all player characters in the first target scene area are evenly distributed to the multiple scene areas, the first target scene area will be recreated, so that other player characters in the target game world scene do not need to enter the second target scene area again when they enter the first target scene area next time.

[0103] In some embodiments, recreating the first target scene area in the target game world scene specifically includes:

[0104] Obtain the game AI characters that currently exist and the game AI characters that should exist in the target game world scene;

[0105] Determine the game AI character existing in the first target scene area based on the currently existing game AI character and the game AI character that should exist;

[0106] The first target scene area is recreated based on the game AI character existing in the first target scene area.

[0107] In specific implementation, since there are many game AI characters (NPCs) in each game world scene, and these game AI characters will move between various areas, the game AI characters in each scene area may be completely different at different times. When recreating the first target scene area, it is necessary to ensure that the game AI characters in the game world scene after the first target scene area is rebuilt are the same as before. Therefore, when reconstructing the first target scene area, it is necessary to determine the game AI characters existing in the first target scene area based on the game AI characters currently existing in the target game world scene and the game AI characters that should exist.

[0108] In order to further improve the game player experience and enable the player characters who form a team together to still play together after being transferred to the multiple scene areas, in some embodiments, the team information of all player characters in the first target scene area is obtained;

[0109] All player characters in the first target scene area are evenly distributed to a plurality of scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area based on the team formation information.

[0110] In some embodiments, the game scene corresponds to a scene management center node, each of the game world scenes corresponds to a world management node, and each of the scene areas corresponds to an area management node, and the method further includes:

[0111] Determine a target world management node with abnormal operation from the plurality of world management nodes through a heartbeat mechanism;

[0112] Acquire data information of the target world management node from the scene management center node, and recreate the target world management node based on the data information;

[0113] The recreated target world management node is connected to the scene management center node and the multiple regional management nodes corresponding thereto respectively.

[0114] It should be noted that when the target world management node runs abnormally, the data information of the target world management node can be obtained from the scene management center node. The data information may include all the previous data of the target world management node. Optionally, the data information can also be obtained from all the regional management nodes corresponding to the target world management node. After obtaining the data information, the target world management node is recreated according to the data information, and the recreated target world management node is connected to the scene management center node and the multiple regional management nodes corresponding to it.

[0115] The information processing method provided by the present application determines a first target scene area with an operation abnormality from multiple scene areas through a heartbeat mechanism. When it is determined that a player character in other scene areas in a target game world scene where the first target scene area is located is about to enter the first target scene area, a second target scene area is determined from multiple scene areas corresponding to the first target scene area, and the player character is transferred to the second target scene area, wherein the multiple scene areas respectively belong to different game world scenes other than the target game world scene. Therefore, when the first target area has operated abnormally, when a player character of the same game world scene wants to enter the first target area, the player character can enter the second target scene area of ​​other game world scenes corresponding to the first target area. Since there is no obvious difference between entering the second target scene area and entering the first target scene area for the game player, the game player's imperceptible disaster recovery can be achieved, thereby ensuring that the game world scene does not have blocking problems while preventing the player from being affected by the operation abnormalities of some scene areas.
