[0045] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0047] In the description of this application, it should be noted that if the terms "upper", "lower", etc. appear to indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship that the product of this application is usually placed in, it is only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Additionally, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0049] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0050] With the development of internet technology and the arrival of the information age, there are more and more games of all kinds, and the content that games can display is becoming richer and richer. Some games can display game maps and game scenes.

[0051] In related technologies, game maps can display all area markers within the game scene, and correspondingly, the game scene can specifically load and display the areas corresponding to these area markers. However, when the network signal is poor, displaying specific areas corresponding to certain area markers can easily cause lag, reducing the player's gaming experience.

[0052] To address the aforementioned technical problems in related technologies, this application provides a method for determining a region in a game. In response to a touch operation on a network signal control, a target region identifier matching the current network signal quality is displayed on the game map. The target region identifier displayed on the game map matches the current network signal quality, meaning that the game map includes target region identifiers that will not cause lag when displaying them under the current network signal quality. Even when the network signal quality is poor, there will be no lag when displaying the target region corresponding to the target region identifier, thus improving the player's gaming experience.

[0053] This application provides a method for determining a region in a game, the execution subject of which can be a terminal device, such as a tablet computer or smartphone with touch function. This application does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0054] The following explanation uses a terminal device as the execution subject to illustrate a method for determining a region in a game provided in this application.

[0055] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a region in a game according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include:

[0056] S101. Provide a network signal control in the graphical user interface.

[0057] The network signal control is used to indicate the current network signal quality of the terminal device.

[0058] In this embodiment, the terminal device can display a network signal control in a graphical user interface. The graphical user interface may include a display area of ​​a game map. The network signal control can be displayed in an area of ​​the graphical user interface other than the display area of ​​the game map. The specific location of the network signal control in the graphical user interface can be set according to actual needs.

[0059] It should be noted that the network signal control can be displayed as an icon, which can represent the current network signal quality; the network signal control can also be displayed as a character, which can represent the current network signal quality; the network signal control can also be displayed in other forms, and this application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0060] S102, responding to touch operations on network signal controls, determining a target area from the game scene that matches the current network signal quality, and displaying the target area identifier on the game map.

[0061] Among them, the target area markers in the game map can be used as prompts, and the target area corresponding to the target area marker will not cause any lag issues when displayed in the game scene.

[0062] In some implementations, players can input touch operations on network signal controls. The terminal device responds to the input touch operations, determines a target area that matches the current network signal quality from all preset areas in the game scene, and displays the target area identifier on the game map.

[0063] Correspondingly, if a player inputs a selection operation for a target area marker in the game map, the terminal device can specifically load and display the target area, or the terminal device can directly display the target area corresponding to the target area marker in the game scene, including loading and displaying virtual resources in the target area, such as virtual buildings, virtual trees, etc.

[0064] In this embodiment, a target area marker matching the current network signal quality is displayed on the game map. Specifically, the game map indicates a target area marker that will not cause lag during loading and display under the current network signal quality. Under the current network signal quality, the terminal device will not experience lag when loading and displaying the target area corresponding to the target area marker, even if the current network signal quality is poor.

[0065] Furthermore, when there is a target area that matches the current network signal quality, the number of target areas can be at least one; when there is no target area that matches the current network signal quality, the number of target areas can be zero.

[0066] In summary, this invention provides a method for determining a region in a game. A graphical user interface (GUI) is provided on a terminal device, displaying a game map. The method includes: providing a network signal control within the GUI, the GUI indicating the current network signal quality of the terminal device; responding to touch input to the GUI, determining a target region matching the current network signal quality from the game scene, and displaying the target region identifier on the game map. The target region identifier displayed on the game map matches the current network signal quality; that is, the game map includes target region identifiers that will not cause lag under the current network signal quality. Even when the network signal quality is poor, displaying the target region corresponding to the identifier will not cause lag, thus improving the player's gaming experience.

[0067] The step of providing a network signal control in the graphical user interface in S101 above may include: providing a network signal control in the graphical user interface when the current network signal quality of the terminal device is lower than a preset threshold.

[0068] The current network signal quality of the terminal device has a corresponding current network signal value.

[0069] In some implementations, the terminal device can determine whether the current network signal value is lower than a preset threshold, and when it is determined that the current network signal value is lower than the preset threshold, a network signal control is displayed in the graphical user interface.

[0070] In this embodiment of the application, when the network signal control is not displayed in the graphical user interface, the current network signal quality is better. Under the current network signal quality, there will be no lag problem when loading and displaying any preset area in the game scene. In this case, all preset areas involved in the game scene can be displayed in the game map.

[0071] In addition, when the network signal quality is good, the network signal control is not displayed in the graphical user interface, making the graphical user interface display in the game simpler.

[0072] Optionally, touch operations for network signal controls include touch operations originating from and ending at the network signal control and the game map.

[0073] Touch operations on network signal controls can include: touch operations starting from the network signal control and ending at the game map; or touch operations starting from the game map and ending at the network signal control.

[0074] In some implementations, the touch operation may include: first clicking on the network signal control, and then clicking on the game map, wherein the clicking operation may be a single click or a double click; or, the touch operation may include: first long-pressing the network signal control, and then long-pressing the game map, wherein the duration of the long-press operation may be greater than or equal to a preset duration.

[0075] Optionally, touch operations for the network signal control may include dragging the network signal control to the game map.

[0076] In one possible implementation, the graphical user interface has a display area corresponding to the game map. If a drag operation targeting the network signal control is detected to enter the display area corresponding to the game map, the target area is displayed in the game map.

[0077] In addition, the terminal device responds to the release operation of the drag operation, determines the release position of the drag operation, and if the release position is on the target area marker, it controls the controlled virtual character in the game to automatically go to the target area corresponding to the target area marker.

[0078] It should be noted that the drag-and-drop operation of the network signal control to the game map has a corresponding drag path. The terminal device can respond to the input drag operation of the network signal control and display the network signal control on the drag path. Of course, it is also possible not to display the network signal control on the drag path, which can be set according to actual needs.

[0079] In this embodiment, the terminal device responds to the input drag operation of the network signal control, and can display the target area marker and the network signal control in the game map at the same time, or it can only display the target area marker. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0080] Optional, Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a region in a game according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the steps for determining a matching target region from the game scene based on the current network signal quality include:

[0081] S201. Obtain the current network signal quality of the terminal device.

[0082] S202. Based on the current network signal quality and the loaded resources of each area in the game scene, determine the target area that matches the current network signal quality from each area of ​​the game scene.

[0083] The terminal device may store preset mapping relationships, which can be used to characterize the mapping relationship between multiple preset network signal qualities and multiple preset loading resources. Each preset network signal quality has a corresponding preset loading resource.

[0084] In some implementations, the terminal device can determine a preset target network signal quality that matches the current network signal quality from multiple preset network signal quality according to a preset mapping relationship, and then determine the preset target loading resource corresponding to the preset target network signal quality. It can then determine the loading resource that matches the preset target loading resource from the loading resources of each area in the game scene, and then take the area corresponding to the loading resource as the target area.

[0085] Optionally, the terminal device may also store preset correspondences, which can be used to characterize multiple preset network signal qualities and the correspondences between various areas in the game scene.

[0086] In some implementations, the terminal device can determine a preset target network signal quality that matches the current network signal quality from a plurality of preset network signal quality according to a preset correspondence, and then take the area corresponding to the preset target network signal quality as the target area.

[0087] The step in S202 above, which determines the target area that matches the current network signal quality from each area of ​​the game scene based on the current network signal quality and the loaded resources of each area in the game scene, may include: if the current network signal quality is less than or equal to the preset network signal strength, the area in the game scene with loaded resources less than or equal to the preset resources is taken as the target area.

[0088] In one possible implementation, the terminal device can determine whether the current network signal quality is less than or equal to a preset network signal strength. If the current network signal quality is less than or equal to the preset network signal strength, then the area in the game scene where the loaded resources are less than or equal to the preset resources is taken as the target area.

[0089] In this embodiment of the application, the resources in the game area may include: virtual objects within the area, which may be at least one of the following: virtual weapons, virtual buildings, virtual items, virtual greenery, etc.

[0090] It should be noted that "loading resources less than or equal to preset resources" can be understood as: the memory occupied by the loaded resources is less than the memory occupied by the preset resources, or the processor consumption of the loaded resources is less than the processor consumption of the preset resources, or the number of loaded resources is less than or equal to the number of preset resources.

[0091] Optionally, the step of displaying the target area identifier in the game map in S102 above may include: displaying only the target area identifier in the game map; or, highlighting the target area identifier in the game map.

[0092] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a graphical user interface provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 3 As shown, only the target area identifier is displayed in the game map. The target area identifier can indicate the location of the target area in the game scene. In practical applications, the target area identifier displayed in the game map may include at least one of the following: the outline of the target area, the coordinates of the target area, the direction of the target area in the game scene, etc.

[0093] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a graphical user interface provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 4 As shown, target area markers in the game map are highlighted. The highlighting can take the form of highlighting the outline of the target area, or highlighting the entire target area. Of course, special effects can also be added to the target area markers; this embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this. In addition, the game map may include other area markers. Under the current network signal quality, displaying other area markers corresponding to other areas may cause lag. For example, Figure 4 As shown, the shaded area represents the target area, while the other areas represent other areas.

[0094] In some implementations, the terminal device may also display a prompt message on the target area marker in the game map. The prompt message indicates that, given the current network signal quality, the target area corresponding to the target area marker is a suitable and smoothly loading area. For example, the word "Suitable" may be displayed on the target area marker.

[0095] In this embodiment, players can input control operations for the controlled virtual character based on target area markers on the game map, and the terminal device can respond to these operations by controlling the controlled virtual character to travel to the target area; alternatively, players can input selection operations for target area markers, and the terminal device can respond to these selection operations by controlling the controlled virtual character to automatically travel to the target area; or, in response to the player's selection operation for a target area marker, the terminal device can directly teleport the controlled virtual character to the target area corresponding to the selected target area marker. When the controlled virtual character arrives at the target area, the terminal device can smoothly display the target area's screen and load the corresponding virtual resources in the target area.

[0096] in addition, Figure 3 and 4 The diagram shows network signal controls included in the graphical user interface, and the graphical user interface may also include: controlled virtual characters.

[0097] Optionally, the method may further include: responding to a touch operation on a virtual prop, determining a target area from the game scene based on the attribute information of the virtual prop, the attribute information of the controlled virtual object, and the attribute information of various areas in the game scene, and displaying the target area identifier on the game map.

[0098] Among them, the touch operation for virtual items can be a drag-and-drop operation to drag virtual items to the game map.

[0099] In practical applications, virtual props can be virtual medicine props, and the target area corresponding to the target area identifier can be a hidden and safe area for recommended controlled virtual characters to use virtual medicine props.

[0100] Optionally, the attribute information of virtual props includes: the usage duration of virtual props; the attribute information of controlled virtual objects includes: the size information of controlled virtual objects; and the attribute information of various areas in the game scene includes: the size information of various areas in the game scene.

[0101] The target area is determined from the game scene based on the usage duration of the virtual props, the size information of the controlled virtual objects, and the size information of various areas in the game scene.

[0102] In some implementations, the terminal device can determine the target size information that matches the usage duration of the virtual props and the size information of the controlled virtual objects from the size information of various areas in the game scene, and take the area in the game scene corresponding to the target size information as the target area.

[0103] Optionally, the method also includes:

[0104] In response to a release operation on a virtual item, the system determines the area identifier of the touch point of the release operation from the target area identifiers as the area identifier to be moved; it controls the controlled virtual object to move to the area identifier to be moved and uses the virtual item in the area to be moved.

[0105] In this embodiment, if a release operation for a virtual item is detected, and the release operation is located on a target area identifier, then the target area identifier is used as the target area identifier to be moved, and the target area corresponding to the target area identifier is used as the target area to be moved. The terminal device can control the controlled virtual character to move to the target area to be moved, load and display the target area to be moved, and use the virtual item within the target area to be moved.

[0106] In summary, this invention provides a method for determining a region in a game. A graphical user interface (GUI) is provided on a terminal device, displaying a game map. The method includes: providing a network signal control within the GUI, the GUI indicating the current network signal quality of the terminal device; responding to touch input to the GUI, determining a target region matching the current network signal quality from the game scene, and displaying the target region identifier on the game map. The target region identifier displayed on the game map matches the current network signal quality; that is, the game map includes target region identifiers that will not cause lag under the current network signal quality. Even when the network signal quality is poor, displaying the target region corresponding to the identifier will not cause lag, thus improving the player's gaming experience.
