[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] In some games, players can mark locations in the game scene to alert teammates of the target's location. In related technologies, players aim their crosshair at a designated location and then click a marking control to mark the location in the game scene. However, if the target's location changes or moves frequently, the marked location cannot accurately and in real-time transmit the target's position to teammates, resulting in low communication efficiency and a poor gaming experience. Therefore, this invention provides a method, apparatus, and electronic device for marking information in games. This technology can be applied to devices such as mobile phones, computers, laptops, and tablets.

[0023] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the information marking method in a game can run on a local terminal device or a server. When the information marking method in a game runs on a server, the method can be implemented and executed based on a cloud interaction system, wherein the cloud interaction system includes a server and a client device.

[0024] In an optional implementation, various cloud applications, such as cloud gaming, can run under the cloud interaction system. Taking cloud gaming as an example, cloud gaming refers to a gaming method based on cloud computing. In the cloud gaming operating mode, the game program and the game screen presentation are separated. The storage and execution of information marking methods in the game are completed on the cloud gaming server. The client device is used for data reception, transmission, and game screen presentation. For example, the client device can be a display device with data transmission capabilities located close to the user, such as a mobile terminal, television, computer, or PDA; however, the information processing is performed by the cloud gaming server in the cloud. When playing the game, the player operates the client device to send operation commands to the cloud gaming server. The cloud gaming server runs the game according to the operation commands, encodes and compresses the game screen and other data, returns it to the client device via the network, and finally, the client device decodes and outputs the game screen.

[0025] In an optional implementation, taking a game as an example, the local terminal device stores the game program and is used to display the game screen. The local terminal device is used to interact with the player through a graphical user interface (GUI), i.e., conventionally by downloading, installing, and running the game program via an electronic device. The local terminal device can provide the GUI to the player in various ways, such as rendering it on the terminal's display screen or providing it to the player via holographic projection. For example, the local terminal device can include a display screen for displaying the GUI, which includes game screens, and a processor for running the game, generating the GUI, and controlling the display of the GUI on the display screen.

[0026] In one possible implementation, this invention provides a method for marking information in a game, providing a graphical user interface (GUI) through a terminal device. The terminal device can be either the aforementioned local terminal device or a client device in the aforementioned cloud interaction system. The GUI includes a crosshair and at least a portion of the game scene. The crosshair can be a crosshair corresponding to a first virtual object controlled by the terminal device, or a crosshair corresponding to a virtual shooting tool, where the virtual shooting tool is a tool held by the first virtual object. The crosshair is typically displayed at the center of the GUI. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0027] Step S102: In response to the first trigger event, determine the first scene position in the game scene that the crosshair is aiming at as the first position to be marked;

[0028] The aforementioned first triggering event can be a marking operation, such as a triggering operation targeting a specified control, a double-click operation, a long-press operation, etc.; it can also be voice control, such as a player giving a voice command with a marking instruction like "mark the current aiming position," etc. The aforementioned first scene location can include a target object, which can be a movable first target object, such as a player-controlled virtual character, a non-player virtual character, a virtual vehicle, etc., or a non-movable second target object, such as a virtual container, a virtual building, a pickable item, etc. For example, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the graphical user interface includes a crosshair and a scene screen showing at least part of the game scene.

[0029] Specifically, when a player initiates the first event, the system first determines the location of the first scene that the crosshair is currently aiming at, and then designates this first scene location as the first position to be marked. At this point, a temporary marker can be displayed at the first scene location, or it can be left unmarked.

[0030] Step S104: In response to the view adjustment operation, adjust the position of the crosshair in the game scene.

[0031] The aforementioned field-of-view adjustment operations typically refer to swipe operations on the graphical user interface (GUI). These operations control the shooting angle of the virtual camera, thereby changing the scene's visual appearance. The image captured by the virtual camera is the scene displayed on the GUI. Specifically, responding to a swipe operation on the field-of-view adjustment area of ​​the GUI changes the scene's visual appearance and simultaneously adjusts the crosshair's aiming position within the game scene. In other words, responding to a swipe operation on the field-of-view adjustment area of ​​the GUI changes the scene's visual appearance to adjust the crosshair's aiming position within the game scene.

[0032] Step S106: In response to the second trigger event, determine the second scene position in the game scene that the crosshair is aiming at as the second position to be marked;

[0033] The second triggering event mentioned above can be the end of the marking operation, such as the end of the triggering operation (long press or swipe operation, etc.) on the marking control, or it can be the voice control to end the marking, such as the voice control "End current marking" when the player gives the command to end the marking.

[0034] Specifically, after the player triggers the second event, the second scene position that the current crosshair is aiming at is first determined, and then the second scene position is determined as the second position to be marked.

[0035] Step S108: Determine a path identifier based on the first and second positions to be marked, and display the path identifier in the game scene; wherein, the path identifier is used to indicate the movement path from the first position to be marked to the second position to be marked.

[0036] The aforementioned path identifiers can include movement paths, such as directional line segments or paths with flowing light effects, i.e., paths flowing from a first marked position to a second marked position; they can also include position identifiers, which can be various pattern identifiers, such as five-pointed stars, circles, triangles, squares, etc., or special effect identifiers, such as flashing or highlighting special effect identifiers. Path identifiers displayed in the graphical user interface can be two-dimensional or three-dimensional.

[0037] This invention provides a method for marking information in a game. In response to a first trigger event, a first scene position aimed at by the crosshair is determined as a first position to be marked. In response to a view adjustment operation, the position of the crosshair aimed at in the game scene is adjusted. In response to a second trigger event, a second scene position aimed at by the crosshair is determined as a second position to be marked. A path identifier is determined based on the first and second positions to be marked and displayed in the game scene. The path identifier indicates the movement path from the first position to the second position. This method allows for path marking of movement from the first scene position to the second scene position through simple interaction, enabling the marking of the movement path of a target object. This allows players to more accurately communicate the movement of the target object, facilitating strategic deployment and implementation between teams, and improving communication efficiency and the overall gaming experience.

[0038] Furthermore, the above method also includes: responding to the first triggering event, controlling entry into the information marking state; in the information marking state, the position in the game scene currently being aimed at by the crosshair can be determined as the first scene position being aimed at by the crosshair.

[0039] In response to the view adjustment operation, the position of the crosshair in the game scene is adjusted. One possible implementation is as follows: In the information marking state, in response to the view adjustment operation, the position of the crosshair in the game scene is adjusted to continuously adjust the second scene position in the game scene where the crosshair is aimed. For example, the position and movement path of the target object before and after the player marks the movement of the target object. In the information marking state, the position of the target object in the game scene can be continuously tracked by adjusting the position of the crosshair in the game scene until the player wants to mark the current position, which can trigger a second trigger event to complete the marking.

[0040] The above-mentioned response to the view adjustment operation adjusts the position of the crosshair in the game scene. One possible implementation is: in the continuous state of the first trigger event, in response to the view adjustment operation, adjust the position of the crosshair in the game scene.

[0041] The first triggering operation mentioned above can be a long press, a click, a double click, etc. For example, long pressing a specified control or sliding a target area can both be the continuous state of the first triggering event. Similarly, clicking or double-clicking a marked control for the first time can also be the continuous state of the first triggering event. When the marked control is clicked or double-clicked again, the continuous state of the first triggering event ends.

[0042] In response to the second triggering event, the second scene position in the game scene being aimed at by the crosshair is determined as the second position to be marked. One possible implementation is as follows: in response to the end of the first triggering event, the second scene position in the game scene being aimed at by the crosshair is determined as the second position to be marked; wherein, the second triggering event is the event at which the first triggering event ends.

[0043] The first triggering event mentioned above is a touch operation on the marker control displayed in the graphical user interface. This touch operation can be a long press, a swipe, or similar action on the marker control. The second triggering event mentioned above is the end of the touch operation on the marker control displayed in the graphical user interface. For example, the end of a long press or a swipe operation on the marker control.

[0044] Before the step of determining the first scene position in the game scene to be marked as the first position in response to the first triggering event, the above method further includes: determining the first scene position in the game scene to be marked in response to the first aiming operation of the crosshair.

[0045] The aforementioned first aiming operation can be a sliding operation targeting the field of view adjustment area in the graphical user interface. This sliding operation adjusts the scene visuals within the graphical user interface, thereby adjusting the aiming position of the crosshair relative to the game scene. For example, such as... Figure 2 As shown, players can control the scene changes by swiping their fingers across the graphical user interface, thereby adjusting the aiming position of the crosshair relative to the game scene and setting the aiming position as the first scene location.

[0046] The above-mentioned step of determining the first scene position aimed at by the crosshair as the first position to be marked in response to the first triggering event includes: displaying a marking control in the graphical user interface; determining the first scene position in the game scene aimed at by the crosshair as the first position to be marked in response to a first touch operation on the marking control; wherein the first triggering event includes a first touch operation on the marking control.

[0047] The aforementioned first touch operation can be a tap, double tap, long press, swipe, etc. For example, such as... Figure 3 As shown, when a player presses and holds the marker control, the first scene position in the game scene currently being aimed at by the crosshair can be designated as the first position to be marked.

[0048] Furthermore, after the step of determining the first scene position in the game scene to be marked as the first position in response to the first triggering event, the above method also includes: displaying a first position marker at the first scene position in the game scene.

[0049] The aforementioned first position identifier can be various graphic identifiers, such as a five-pointed star, a circle, a triangle, a square, etc., or it can be a special effect identifier, such as a flashing effect identifier or a highlighted effect identifier. For example, such as... Figure 3 As shown, after the player long-presses the marker control and determines the first position to be marked, the first position marker is displayed at the first position to be marked (i.e., the first scene position).

[0050] In response to a second trigger event, the step of determining a second scene position in the game scene where the crosshair is aimed as a second position to be marked can be implemented as follows: In response to the end of the first touch operation, the second scene position in the game scene where the crosshair is currently aimed is determined. When determining the second scene position in the game scene where the crosshair is aimed as the second position to be marked, the method further includes: displaying a second position identifier at the second scene position in the game scene.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first touch operation is a long press operation. After the player ends the long press operation on the marking control, the second scene position currently aimed at by the crosshair is first determined as the second position to be marked, and a second position marker will be displayed at the second position to be marked (i.e., the second scene position). Similarly, the aforementioned first position marker can be various pattern markers, such as a five-pointed star, a circle, a triangle, a square, etc., or it can be a special effect marker, such as a flashing special effect marker or a highlighting special effect marker.

[0052] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, after the player finishes the long press operation on the marker control and determines the second position to be marked, the second position marker is displayed at the second position to be marked (i.e. the second scene position).

[0053] Finally, the arrow pointing from the first location to be marked to the second location to be marked is identified as the path identifier and displayed in the game scene. That is, the path identifier displays an arrow pointing from the first location to the second location to be marked. For example, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, an arrow pointing from a first position marker to a second position marker is displayed.

[0054] Examples such as Figure 5 As shown, the path marker also displays the distance "50m" between the first scene location and the second scene location. This distance refers to the distance in the actual game scene.

[0055] The game scene described above also includes a first virtual object, which is controlled by a terminal device. The method further includes: displaying a first distance at a first scene location, where the first distance is the distance between the first virtual object and the first scene location in the game scene; and displaying a second distance at a second scene location, where the second distance is the distance between the first virtual object and the second scene location in the game scene.

[0056] For example, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first scene location is displayed as 100m, representing the distance between the first virtual object and the first scene location. However, in the graphical user interface provided by the terminal device corresponding to the second virtual object, the first distance displayed for the first scene location is the distance between the second virtual object and the first scene location within the game scene, for example, 200m.

[0057] Similarly, the second scene location is displayed as 120m, indicating the distance between the first virtual object and the second scene location. Of course, in the graphical user interface provided by the terminal device corresponding to the second virtual object, the second distance displayed for the second scene location is the distance between the second virtual object and the second scene location within the game scene, such as 220m.

[0058] Finally, the above method also includes sending the path identifier to other terminal devices for display. These other terminal devices are the devices corresponding to the player's teammates, allowing the player's teammates to display the completed path identifier on their game interfaces. This enables the player to more accurately communicate the target's movement to their teammates, facilitating quick communication.

[0059] Corresponding to the above method embodiments, this invention provides an information marking device for games, which provides a graphical user interface through a terminal device. The graphical user interface includes a crosshair and scene screens of at least part of the game scene, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the device includes:

[0060] The first position to be marked module 71 is used to determine the first scene position in the game scene that the crosshair is aiming at as the first position to be marked in response to the first trigger event;

[0061] The field of view adjustment module 72 is used to adjust the position of the crosshair in the game scene in response to the field of view adjustment operation;

[0062] The second position to be marked module 73 is used to determine the second scene position in the game scene that the crosshair is aiming at as the second position to be marked in response to the second trigger event;

[0063] The path identifier display module 74 is used to determine the path identifier based on the first position to be marked and the second position to be marked, and to display the path identifier in the game scene; wherein, the path identifier is used to indicate the movement path from the first position to be marked to the second position to be marked.

This method, through simple interaction, allows for path marking of movement from the first scene position to the second scene position, enabling the marking of the movement path of a target object. This allows players to more accurately communicate the movement of the target object, improving communication efficiency and the gaming experience.

[0065] The aforementioned device further includes: a state control module, used to control entry into the information marking state in response to a first trigger event; the aforementioned field of view adjustment module is also used to: in the information marking state, in response to a field of view adjustment operation, adjust the position of the crosshair in the game scene.

[0066] The aforementioned field-of-view adjustment module is also used to: in response to the field-of-view adjustment operation, adjust the position of the crosshair in the game scene while the first trigger event is ongoing;

[0067] The aforementioned second position to be marked module is further configured to: in response to the end of the first triggering event, determine the second scene position in the game scene that the crosshair is aiming at as the second position to be marked; wherein the second triggering event is the event at which the first triggering event ends.

[0068] The first triggering event mentioned above is a touch operation on the marker control displayed in the graphical user interface.

[0069] The aforementioned device further includes: a first scene position determination module, used to determine the first scene position in the game scene being aimed at in response to the first aiming operation of the crosshair.

[0071] The aforementioned device also includes a first location identifier display module, used to: display a first location identifier at a first scene location in the game scene.

[0072] The aforementioned field-of-view adjustment module is also used to: respond to sliding operations on the field-of-view adjustment area of ​​the graphical user interface, control changes in the scene view, and adjust the aiming position of the crosshair relative to the game scene.

[0073] The aforementioned second location determination module is also used to: display a second location identifier at a second scene location in the game scene.

[0074] The aforementioned path identifier display module is also used to: determine the arrow identifier pointing from the first position to be marked to the second position to be marked as the path identifier, and display the path identifier in the game scene.

[0075] The game scene described above also includes a first virtual object, which is controlled by a terminal device. The device also includes a distance display module, used to: display a first distance at a first scene location, the first distance being the distance between the first virtual object and the first scene location in the game scene; and display a second distance at a second scene location, the second distance being the distance between the first virtual object and the second scene location in the game scene.

[0076] The aforementioned device further includes: a path identifier sending module, used to send the path identifier to other terminal devices so that the path identifier can be displayed on the other terminal devices.

[0083] The processor in the aforementioned electronic device, by executing machine-executable instructions, can perform the following operations in the information marking method of the aforementioned game:

[0084] In response to a first trigger event, the first scene position in the game scene being aimed at by the crosshair is determined as the first position to be marked. In response to a view adjustment operation, the position of the crosshair in the game scene is adjusted. In response to a second trigger event, the second scene position in the game scene being aimed at by the crosshair is determined as the second position to be marked. A path identifier is determined based on the first and second positions to be marked and displayed in the game scene. The path identifier indicates the movement path from the first position to the second position. This method, through simple interaction, allows for path marking of movement from the first scene position to the second scene position, enabling the marking of the target object's movement path. This allows players to more accurately communicate the target object's movement, improving communication efficiency and the overall gaming experience.

[0085] The above method also includes: in response to a first trigger event, controlling entry into an information marking state; in response to a view adjustment operation, adjusting the position of the crosshair in the game scene, including: in the information marking state, in response to a view adjustment operation, adjusting the position of the crosshair in the game scene.
