[0093] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0094] As games continue to develop and progress, a wider variety of games are emerging. In these games, virtual characters need to perform specific actions near virtual occlusion objects to ensure their safety.

[0095] In related technologies, players manually control a virtual character to move near a virtual occlusion object, and then manually control the virtual character to complete a target action near the occlusion object. This design is inconvenient for players to operate and reduces their gaming experience.

[0096] To address the aforementioned technical problems in related technologies, this application provides a method for controlling a virtual character in a game. In response to a second operation on a first skill control, a target occlusion object is identified in the game scene, and supplementary controls are provided in the graphical user interface. In response to a trigger operation on the supplementary controls, the virtual character can be automatically moved from its current position to the location of the target occlusion object, and a target action corresponding to the supplementary control is performed at the location of the target occlusion object. By manipulating the controls, the virtual character can be automatically moved to the target occlusion object to perform the target action, making player operation more convenient and improving the player's gaming experience.

[0097] This application provides a method for controlling virtual characters in a game. The executing entity can be a terminal device, which can be any of the following: desktop computer, laptop computer, tablet computer, smartphone, etc. It can also be other types of devices that have processing, display and can install game applications. This application does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0098] The following explanation uses a terminal device as the execution subject to illustrate a method for controlling a virtual character in a game, as provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0099] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a virtual character in a game, as provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include:

[0100] S101, responding to the second operation on the first skill control, determining a target occlusion object in the game scene according to the operation parameters of the second operation, and providing supplementary controls in the graphical user interface that correspond to the current attribute state of the virtual character.

[0101] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a graphical user interface provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the terminal device provides a graphical user interface (GUI), which displays a game scene, a virtual character within the game scene, and a first skill control. The first skill control is configured to launch a sub-game item in the game scene via a first game item in response to a first operation.

[0102] In this embodiment, the terminal device responds to a first operation on the first skill control, which can control the first game item to launch a sub-game item; the terminal device responds to a second operation on the first skill control, which determines a target occlusion object in the game scene based on the operation parameters of the second operation. The first and second operations are of different types.

[0103] For example, the first operation can be a click operation, and the second operation can be a long press operation. Correspondingly, the operation parameter of the second operation can be the long press duration; or, the first operation can be a single click operation, and the second operation can be a multi-click operation. Correspondingly, the operation parameter of the multi-click operation can be the number of clicks.

[0104] In some implementations, the terminal device can determine the target attribute to be supplemented based on the current attribute status of the virtual character, and then provide supplementary controls corresponding to the target attribute in the graphical user interface.

[0105] like Figure 2 As shown, after performing a second operation on the first skill control, a supplementary control is also provided in the graphical user interface. This supplementary control can be displayed and fixed in a preset position. Of course, the display position of the supplementary control can also be determined according to the second operation. This application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0106] It should be noted that the target occlusion object determined in the game scene according to the operation parameters of the second operation can be an object that already exists in the game scene or a newly generated object. This application embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0107] S102, Respond to the trigger operation for the supplementary control, and control the virtual character to move from the current position to the position of the target occluded object to perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control.

[0108] In one possible implementation, in response to a trigger operation on the supplementary control, the terminal device can automatically control the virtual character to move from its current position to the location of the target occluded object to perform the target action, thereby supplementing the target attribute of the virtual character to the target state.

[0109] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a graphical user interface provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 3 As shown, in response to a trigger operation on the supplementary control, after controlling the virtual character to move from its current position to the location of the target occlusion object, the supplementary control can also be hidden. Optionally, during the process of controlling the virtual character to perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control, supplementary prompt information can also be displayed in the graphical user interface.

[0110] It should be noted that the triggering operation for the supplementary control can be any of the following: click operation, long press operation, hard press operation, swipe operation, etc., and this application embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0111] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a method for controlling virtual characters in a game. By determining the target occlusion object based on the second operation on the first skill control, and by automatically controlling the virtual character to move to the location of the target occlusion object based on the trigger operation on the supplementary control, the method can realize automatic control of the virtual character, making the player's operation more convenient and improving the player's gaming experience.

[0112] Optionally, the second operation is a sliding operation, and the operation parameters include the sliding direction of the sliding operation.

[0113] The step of determining a target occlusion object in the game scene according to the operation parameters of the second operation in S101 above may include: determining the position corresponding to the sliding direction in the game scene according to the sliding direction of the sliding operation, and determining a target occlusion object at the position.

[0114] In some implementations, the terminal device can determine the orientation corresponding to the sliding direction in the game scene based on the sliding direction of the sliding operation, and determine the nearest occluding object from the existing occluding objects at the orientation as the target occluding object, or generate a target occluding object at the orientation.

[0115] Optionally, the step of providing supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state of the virtual character in the graphical user interface in S101 above may include: providing at least one supplementary control corresponding to the current attribute state of the virtual character in the sliding direction according to the sliding direction of the sliding operation.

[0116] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sliding direction can be leftward, and the terminal device can provide a supplementary control at a preset threshold position away from the first skill control along the sliding direction. Of course, this is just an example; multiple supplementary controls can be provided when there are multiple supplementary controls.

[0117] It should be noted that different supplementary controls can display different supplementary prompts, which are used to indicate the attribute information to be supplemented. For example, if the current attribute status indicates that the sub-game item corresponding to the first game item is missing, the supplementary prompt could be: Supplement the sub-game item corresponding to the first game item.

[0118] Optionally, the step of providing supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state of the virtual character in the graphical user interface in S101 above may include at least one of the following:

[0119] If the virtual character's current attribute status is a missing attribute value state, then a corresponding attribute value replenishment control is provided in the graphical user interface. The missing attribute value state is defined as an attribute value falling below a first threshold. Attribute values ​​include one or more of the following: stamina, energy, signal strength, mana, and vitality.

[0120] If the current attribute status of the virtual character is a missing item status, then the graphical user interface provides a missing item replenishment control corresponding to the missing item. The missing item status is when the number of items is lower than the second threshold, and the missing items include at least the sub-game items of the first game item.

[0121] In this embodiment, the current attribute state of a virtual character may include: an attribute value missing state and / or an item missing state; if only the attribute value missing state is included, then an attribute value supplementation control corresponding to the missing attribute value is provided in the graphical user interface; if only the item missing state is included, then an item supplementation control corresponding to the missing item is provided in the graphical user interface; if both the attribute value missing state and the item missing state are included, and the number of supplementation controls to be provided is less than or equal to a preset number, then attribute value supplementation controls and item supplementation controls are provided in the graphical user interface.

[0122] It should be noted that if both attribute value missing status and item missing status are included, but the number of supplementary controls required exceeds the preset number, then the priority of providing attribute value supplementary controls is higher than the priority of providing item supplementary controls.

[0123] Optionally, the first game item can be a virtual pistol, and the sub-game item of the first game item can be a virtual bullet; or, the first game item can be a bow, and the sub-game item of the first game item can be an arrow, etc. This application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0124] Optionally, the step of responding to a trigger operation on the supplementary control and controlling the virtual character to move from its current position to the location of the target occluded object to perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control includes at least one of the following:

[0125] In response to a trigger action on an attribute value replenishment control, control the virtual character to move to the location of the target occluded object and perform the attribute value replenishment operation; and

[0126] In response to a trigger action on the item replenishment control, control the virtual character to move to the location of the target occluded object and perform the item replenishment operation.

[0127] In some implementations, the terminal device responds to a trigger operation on the attribute value supplementation control, controlling the virtual character to move to the location of the target occluded object and supplement the missing attribute value corresponding to the attribute value supplementation control. For example, at least one of the following can be supplemented: stamina, energy, signal strength, magic power, and vitality.

[0128] Furthermore, the attribute value replenishment control can be a control for replenishing virtual food, a control for replenishing virtual potions, or other forms; this application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this. For example, when the attribute value replenishment control is a control for replenishing virtual potions, the replenishment prompt information of the attribute value replenishment control can be "Covering up the medicine".

[0129] In other embodiments, the terminal device responds to a trigger operation on the item replenishment control, controlling the virtual character to move to the location of the target occluded object and replenish the item. The item can be the item corresponding to the first skill control, or it can be other items in the game; this application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0130] For example, it could be replenishing bullets for virtual weapons. The replenishment prompt on the item replenishment control could be "Reload while obstructing the view".

[0131] Optionally, the step of controlling the virtual character to move from its current position to the location of the target occlusion object and perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control in S102 above may include: controlling the virtual character to switch the first game item from the first assembly state to the second assembly state, and moving it to the location of the target occlusion object to perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control.

[0132] In some implementations, the terminal device can first control the virtual character to switch the first game item from a first assembly state to a second assembly state, and then control it to move to the location of the target occluded object to perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control.

[0133] In other implementations, the terminal device can control the virtual character to move towards the location of the target occluded object, switch the first game item from a first assembly state to a second assembly state, and execute the target action corresponding to the supplementary control when it reaches the location of the target occluded object.

[0134] For example, the first assembly state can be for the virtual character to take out virtual game items, and the second assembly state can be for the virtual character to put away virtual game items.

[0135] In summary, controlling the virtual character to switch the first game item from the first equipped state to the second equipped state allows the virtual character to move to the location of the target occluded object more quickly and efficiently.

[0136] Optional, Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a virtual character in a game, as provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the step in S102 above, which controls the virtual character to move from its current position to the location of the target occluded object and perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control, may include:

[0137] S401, Get the height of the target occluding object.

[0138] S402. Based on the height, control the virtual character to move to the location of the target occluded object, and perform the target action with a motion posture that matches the height.

[0139] Among them, the action posture includes at least one of the following: standing, squatting, or lying down.

[0140] In some implementations, after the terminal device controls the virtual character to move to the location of the target occluded object, it can determine the action posture that matches the height of the target occluded object based on the height of the target occluded object and the height of the virtual character in different action postures, and then perform the target action based on the action posture.

[0141] In summary, by controlling the virtual character to perform the target action with a posture that matches the height at the location of the target occluding object, the virtual object can be better hidden at the location of the target occluding object.

[0142] Optional, Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a virtual character in a game, as provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 As shown, the method may further include:

[0143] S501, Provides a first game item replenishment control in the graphical user interface.

[0144] S502, responding to a touch operation applied to the first game item replenishment control, controlling the virtual character to perform a sub-game item replenishment operation for the first game item.

[0145] In some implementations, if the current attribute status indicates that the first game item is missing, a first game item replenishment control can be provided in the graphical user interface. In response to touch operations on the first game item replenishment control, the virtual character can be controlled to perform a sub-game item replenishment operation for the first game item at the current position.

[0146] For example, the first game item could be a virtual pistol. Responding to touch controls that supplement the first game item, the virtual character could be controlled to reload at the current location.

[0147] Optionally, the method also includes:

[0148] After the target action is completed, control the virtual character to return from the location of the target occluded object to the current position.

[0149] Figure 6 A schematic diagram of a graphical user interface provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 6 As shown, after the target action is completed, the virtual character is controlled to return to its current position.

[0150] Optionally, when the sliding operation ends at the supplementary control, the supplementary control's trigger operation is triggered.

[0151] In this embodiment of the application, the sliding operation for the first skill control and the triggering operation for the supplementary control can be continuous operations, that is, when the end position of the sliding operation is at the position of the supplementary control, the triggering operation of the supplementary control is triggered.

[0152] In some implementations, the first operation on the first skill control can be a click operation. The terminal device responds to this first operation and launches a sub-game item through the first game item in the game scene. The second operation on the first skill control can be a swipe operation. The starting point of the swipe operation can be the first skill control. During the swipe in a swipe direction from the starting point, if there is at least one occluding object in the position corresponding to the swipe direction, the nearest occluding object is determined as the target occluding object. Supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state of the virtual character are provided in the swipe direction corresponding to the swipe operation in the graphical user interface. If the end position of the swipe operation is detected on the supplementary control, the virtual character is controlled to move from the current position to the position of the target occluding object and execute the target action corresponding to the supplementary control.

[0153] Figure 7 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a virtual character in a game, as provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 7 As shown, the method may include:

[0154] S701. In response to the current attribute state of the virtual character, provide supplementary controls in the graphical user interface that correspond to the current attribute state.

[0155] The graphical user interface is provided through a terminal device. The content displayed by the graphical user interface includes: a game scene, a virtual character located in the game scene, and a first skill control. The first skill control is configured to launch a sub-game item in the game scene in response to a first operation through a first game item.

[0156] In some implementations, if the terminal device detects that the current attribute state of the virtual character does not meet the first preset state, it indicates that the current attribute state of the virtual character is missing and needs to be supplemented. In this case, a supplementary control corresponding to the current attribute state can be provided in the graphical user interface.

[0157] For example, if the current attribute status of the virtual character indicates that an attribute value is missing, an attribute value replenishment control is provided on the graphical user interface; if the current attribute status of the virtual character indicates that an item is missing, an item replenishment control is provided on the graphical user interface. The item can be a first game item or other items in the game. This application embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0158] S702, responding to the second operation for the supplementary control, identify a target occlusion object in the game scene, and control the virtual character to move to the location of the target occlusion object to perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control.

[0159] The supplementary controls include attribute value supplementary controls or prop supplementary controls, the target actions include attribute value supplementary operations or prop supplementary operations, the attribute values ​​include one or more of the following: stamina, energy, signal, magic, vitality, and props include at least the sub-game props of the first game prop.

[0160] In this embodiment of the application, a target occlusion object is determined in the game scene. It can be an object that already exists in the game scene or a newly generated object. This embodiment of the application does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0161] In some implementations, the terminal device can control the virtual character to move to the location of the target occlusion object and control the virtual character to perform the target action corresponding to the supplementary control, thereby supplementing the attribute value or prop under the occlusion of the target occlusion object. When the supplemented attribute state meets the second preset state, the supplementation is completed.

[0162] In summary, this application provides a method for controlling a virtual character in a game, comprising: responding to the current attribute state of the virtual character, providing supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state in a graphical user interface; responding to a second operation on the supplementary controls, determining a target occlusion object in the game scene, and controlling the virtual character to move to the location of the target occlusion object to perform a target action corresponding to the supplementary controls; wherein, the supplementary controls include attribute value supplementary controls or item supplementary controls, the target action includes attribute value supplementary operations or item supplementary operations, the attribute values ​​include one or more of the following: stamina, energy, signal, magic, vitality, and the items include at least a sub-game item of a first game item. Based on the second operation on the supplementary controls, a target occlusion object is determined, and the virtual character is automatically controlled to move to the location of the target occlusion object and perform the target action. Operating the supplementary controls enables automatic control of the virtual character, making player operation more convenient and improving the player's gaming experience. Moreover, different types of supplementary controls can be provided according to the current attribute state, which can not only supplement attribute values ​​but also supplement items.

[0163] Optional, Figure 8 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a virtual character in a game, as provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 8 As shown, the step in S701 above, which provides supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state of the virtual character in response to the current attribute state, may include:

[0164] S801, In response to the current attribute state of the virtual character, obtain the relative position between the virtual character and the occluding object within the preset range of the virtual character in the game scene.

[0165] The target occlusion object can be an existing occlusion object in the game scene.

[0166] In some implementations, in response to the current attribute state of the virtual character, the terminal device can obtain at least one occluding object within a preset range of the virtual character in the game scene, and determine the relative position between each occluding object and the virtual character.

[0167] S802, Based on the relative orientation, display supplementary controls corresponding to the occluded object around the first skill control.

[0168] In some implementations, the terminal device can display supplementary controls corresponding to the obscured object at a preset distance from the first skill control, based on the relative orientation.

[0169] For example, if the occluded object is to the left of the virtual character, a supplementary control corresponding to the occluded object can be displayed to the left of the first skill control; or, if the most recent occluded object is above the virtual character, a supplementary control corresponding to the occluded object can be displayed above the first skill control.

[0170] It should be noted that the supplementary control can also display a tooltip indicating which object is being obscured, so that the user can know which object the supplementary control is specifically obscuring.

[0171] Optionally, the step of determining a target occlusion object in the game scene in response to the second operation on the supplementary control in S702 above may include: responding to the selection operation on a target supplementary control among the displayed supplementary controls, and determining the occlusion object corresponding to the target supplementary control as the target occlusion object.

[0172] The graphical user interface may provide at least one supplementary control.

[0173] Figure 9 A schematic diagram of a graphical user interface provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 9 As shown, the graphical user interface may include supplementary control a and supplementary control b. The occlusion object corresponding to supplementary control a can be the first occlusion object, and the occlusion object corresponding to supplementary control b can be the second occlusion object.

[0174] Optionally, the step of providing supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state in the graphical user interface in response to the current attribute state of the virtual character in S701 above may include: providing supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state in the graphical user interface when there is an occluding object within a preset range of the virtual character in response to the current attribute state of the virtual character.

[0175] In this embodiment, in response to the current attribute state of the virtual character, when there is an obstructing object within the preset range of the virtual character, supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state are provided; when there is an obstructing object within the preset range of the virtual character, supplementary controls corresponding to the current attribute state are not provided.

[0176] Optionally, the step of determining a target occlusion object in the game scene in response to the second operation on the supplementary control in S702 above may include: in response to the second operation on the supplementary control, determining the occlusion object closest to the virtual character among the occlusion objects within the preset range of the virtual character as the target occlusion object.

[0177] In some implementations, in response to a second operation on the supplementary control, the terminal determines at least one occluding object within a preset range of the virtual character, calculates the distance between each occluding object and the virtual character, and selects the closest occluding object as the target occluding object.

[0178] Optionally, the second operation is a sliding operation applied to the supplementary control.

[0179] The step of determining a target occluder in the game scene in response to the second operation of the supplementary control in S702 above may include: responding to the sliding operation of the supplementary control, determining the position corresponding to the sliding direction in the game scene according to the sliding direction of the sliding operation, and determining a target occluder at the position.

[0180] Optionally, the supplementary controls presented on the graphical user interface can be in the form of a virtual joystick, and the sliding operation for the supplementary controls can be a sliding operation for the virtual joystick.

[0181] For example, a left swipe of the virtual joystick corresponds to the left side of the supplementary control, so a target obstruction can be identified to the left of the supplementary control; or, an up swipe of the virtual joystick corresponds to the top of the supplementary control, so a target obstruction can be identified above the supplementary control; a right swipe of the virtual joystick corresponds to the right side of the supplementary control, so a target obstruction can be identified to the right of the supplementary control; or, a down swipe of the virtual joystick corresponds to the bottom of the supplementary control, so a target obstruction can be identified below the supplementary control.

[0182] In some implementations, the terminal device can determine the location corresponding to the sliding direction in the game scene based on the sliding direction of the sliding operation, and determine the object closest to the virtual character as the target occluder.

[0183] Of course, if there is no target obstruction in the direction of the swipe, the terminal device can also determine the direction corresponding to the swipe direction in the game scene according to the swipe direction, and regenerate a target obstruction at a preset distance from the virtual character in that direction.
