Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of game technology, and in particular to information interaction methods, devices, electronic devices, and readable storage media in games. Background Technology

[0002] For games where multiple players control virtual characters to perform game tasks together online, players can create game rooms, and other players can join these rooms to form teams and enter the corresponding map game scene to complete game tasks.

[0003] For players in the same game room, they can determine the game scene they need to enter by viewing the map display area on the terminal, which shows the possible map scenes they can enter. At the same time, players can recommend a game map to the first player who created the room and request the first player to change the current game map.

[0004] For related technologies, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the information prompts provided in the embodiments of this application, such as... Figure 1 As shown, when a second player in the game room requests a map change, they can submit the request via the map change control and send it to the first terminal. However, the first terminal can only identify which second player submitted the request through a notification icon. The specific change request (the change itself) requires further communication between the first and second players via text or voice. After confirming the second player's request, the first player must find the corresponding map to make the change. This process is time-consuming, requiring significant time to determine the specific map change request and locate the target map, resulting in low map change efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide a method, device, electronic device, and readable storage medium for information interaction in games. When a second player in the room requests a map recommendation, map recommendation information containing information about the map to be recommended is generated directly through the second player's operation on the second terminal. The map recommendation information is then displayed in the map recommendation display area of ​​the first player's first terminal, which created the game room. The first player can directly perform a map switching operation by switching the map recommendation display area displayed on the first terminal, switching the current map to the map recommended by the second terminal. This reduces the time required to determine the specific needs for changing the map and the replacement steps of finding the target map for replacement, thus helping to improve map changing efficiency and human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide an information interaction method in a game, the information interaction method comprising:

[0007] In response to the start of the game preparation phase, information prompt interfaces are displayed on the graphical user interfaces of the first terminal and each second terminal. The information prompt interfaces include a map display area of ​​the current map, which is used to display the map scene to be entered. The first terminal is the terminal of the first player who created the game room; the second terminal is the terminal of the second player who is located in the game room created by the first player and is participating in or watching the game.

[0008] In response to a map recommendation operation performed on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, the system determines the map to be recommended and generates map recommendation information.

[0009] The recommended map display area is displayed on the information prompt interface of the first terminal; in response to the map selection operation of the recommended map display area displayed on the first terminal, the current map is switched to the map to be recommended; the recommended map display area is used to display the map recommendation information;

[0010] In response to the end of the game preparation phase, the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game are controlled to enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended and execute game tasks.

[0011] Secondly, embodiments of this application also provide an information interaction device for games, the information interaction device comprising:

[0012] The prompt interface display module is used to display information prompt interfaces on the graphical user interface of the first terminal and each of the second terminals in response to the start of the game preparation phase. The information prompt interface includes a map display area of ​​the current map, which is used to display the map scene to be entered. The first terminal is the terminal of the first player who created the game room; the second terminal is the terminal of the second player who is located in the game room created by the first player and is participating in or watching the game.

[0013] The recommendation information generation module is used to respond to map recommendation operations on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, determine the map to be recommended, and generate map recommendation information;

[0014] The map switching module is used to display a recommended map display area on the information prompt interface of the first terminal; in response to a map selection operation for the recommended map display area displayed on the first terminal, the current map is switched to the map to be recommended; the recommended map display area is used to display the map recommendation information;

[0015] The task execution module is used to control the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game to enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended in response to the end of the game preparation phase, and to execute the game task.

[0016] Thirdly, embodiments of this application also provide an electronic device, including: a processor, a storage medium, and a bus, wherein the storage medium stores machine-readable instructions executable by the processor, and when the electronic device is running, the processor communicates with the storage medium via the bus, and the processor executes the machine-readable instructions to perform the steps of the information interaction method in the game as described in any of the first aspects.

[0017] Fourthly, embodiments of this application also provide a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, performs the steps of the information interaction method in a game as described in any of the first aspects.

[0018] The information interaction method, apparatus, electronic device, and readable storage medium provided in this application, in response to the start of the game preparation phase, display information prompt interfaces on the graphical user interfaces of a first terminal and each second terminal respectively; in response to a map recommendation operation on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, determine a map to be recommended and generate map recommendation information; display a map recommendation display area on the information prompt interface of the first terminal; in response to a map selection operation on the map recommendation display area displayed on the first terminal, switch the current map to the map to be recommended; and in response to the end of the game preparation phase, control the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game to enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended and execute game tasks. In this way, when a second player in the room requests a map recommendation, the second player's actions on their second terminal generate map recommendation information containing the map to be recommended. This map recommendation information is then displayed in the map recommendation display area on the first player's first terminal. The first player can then switch maps directly from the map recommendation display area on their first terminal to the recommended map on the second terminal. This reduces the time required to determine the specific map change request and the steps involved in finding and replacing the target map, thus improving map changing efficiency and human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. Based on the embodiments of this application, every other embodiment obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort falls within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] First, let me introduce the terms used in this application:

[0040] (1) Graphical User Interface

[0041] A graphical user interface (GUI) is a human-computer interaction display format that allows users to manipulate icons, icons, or menu options on the screen using input devices such as a mouse or keyboard. It also allows users to manipulate icons or menu options on the touch screen of a touch terminal by performing touch operations to select commands, launch programs, or perform other tasks.

[0042] (2) Virtual characters

[0043] A virtual character is a virtual object that can be controlled by a player and move within a game environment. It is also called a player virtual character or player virtual object, and in some video games, it may be referred to as a shikigami (spirit) or hero character. A player character can be at least one of several different forms, such as a virtual person, virtual animal, anime character, or virtual vehicle.

[0044] Secondly, the technical background of this application will be introduced:

[0045] For games where multiple players control virtual characters to perform game tasks together online, players can create game rooms, and other players can join these rooms to form teams and enter the corresponding map game scene to complete game tasks.

[0046] For players in the same game room, they can determine the game scene they need to enter by viewing the map display area on the terminal, which shows the possible map scenes they can enter. At the same time, players can recommend a game map to the first player who created the room and request the first player to change the current game map.

[0047] In related technologies, when a second player in a game room requests a map change, they can submit the request via a map change control and send it to the first terminal. However, the first terminal can only identify which second player submitted the request through a notification. The actual map change requires further communication between the first and second players via text or voice. After confirming the second player's request, the first player must find the corresponding map to make the change. This process is time-consuming, requiring significant time to determine the specific map change request and locate the target map, resulting in low efficiency in map changing.

[0048] Based on this, this application provides an information interaction method in games to reduce the time required to determine the specific needs of changing maps and the replacement steps of finding the target map for replacement, thereby improving map changing efficiency and human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0049] In one embodiment of this application, the information interaction method in the game can run on a local terminal device or a server. When the information interaction method in the 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.

[0050] 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 interaction 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.

[0051] 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.

[0052] In one possible implementation, this invention provides an information interaction method in a game, which provides a graphical user interface through a terminal device. The terminal device can be a local terminal device (such as a local touch terminal) or a client device in the aforementioned cloud interaction system. The following description uses the example of the information interaction method in the game running on a local terminal device (hereinafter referred to as the terminal device).

[0053] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating an information interaction method in a game, as provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown in the embodiments of this application, the information interaction method in the game includes:

[0055] S201. In response to the start of the game preparation phase, an information prompt interface is displayed on the graphical user interface of the first terminal and each of the second terminals. The information prompt interface includes a map display area of ​​the current map, which is used to display the map scene to be entered. The first terminal is the terminal of the first player who created the game room. The second terminal is the terminal of the second player who is located in the game room created by the first player and is participating in or watching the game.

[0056] S202, responding to the map recommendation operation on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, determining the map to be recommended, and generating map recommendation information.

[0057] S203. Display a map recommendation display area on the information prompt interface of the first terminal; respond to the map selection operation for the map recommendation display area displayed on the first terminal, switch the current map to the map to be recommended; the map recommendation display area is used to display the map recommendation information.

[0058] S204. In response to the end of the game preparation phase, control the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game to enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended and execute the game task.

[0059] This application provides a method for information interaction in a game. When a second player in a room requests a map recommendation, map recommendation information containing information about the map to be recommended is generated directly through the second player's operation on the second terminal. The map recommendation information is then displayed in the map recommendation display area of ​​the first player's first terminal, which created the game room. The first player can directly switch the map to the recommended map on the second terminal by switching the map recommendation display area displayed on the first terminal. This reduces the time required to determine the specific needs for changing the map and the replacement steps of finding the target map for replacement, thus helping to improve map changing efficiency and human-computer interaction efficiency.

[0060] The exemplary steps of the embodiments of this application are described below:

[0061] S201. In response to the start of the game preparation phase, an information prompt interface is displayed on the graphical user interface of the first terminal and each of the second terminals. The information prompt interface includes a map display area of ​​the current map, which is used to display the map scene to be entered. The first terminal is the terminal of the first player who created the game room. The second terminal is the terminal of the second player who is located in the game room created by the first player and is participating in or watching the game.

[0062] The game scenario in this application embodiment can be a scenario where multiple players control corresponding virtual characters online to perform game tasks together. This can be achieved by players creating game rooms and other players entering the game rooms created by the players to form teams and enter the corresponding map game scene to perform game tasks.

[0063] In one possible implementation, for players who need to create a room, they can enter the game interface, open the map selection interface through the room creation control in the game interface, select the target map they want to play on, and open the room creation interface through the room creation control. In the room creation interface, players can enter the room name, room password, and room tags, and can also set whether the room has a spectator function (if the room spectator function is enabled, there can be spectator players in the room who do not participate in the game but watch the operation process of other players in the room); at the same time, the room creation interface also has a control to set the room as a "private room". When the player selects to enable the "private room" function, the room will no longer be displayed in the room list. When other players browse the room list to select a room, this room will not be displayed. Players in this room can be invited by the player who created the room or enter the room number and room password to join; after the settings are completed, the room for this round of the game is created through the "create room" control in the room creation interface.

[0064] Players who want to join the room can enter by entering the room number and password. If the player who created the room did not set a password, they can enter directly when browsing the room (provided the room creator has not opened a private room).

[0065] In one possible implementation, players who need to enter a room can browse the room list to see information such as the room name, the current map of the room, and the room's maximum number of players. They can then choose whether to enter the room based on this information.

[0066] Furthermore, when the first player who created the room and the second player who participates in or watches the game both enter the same game room, an information prompt interface will be displayed on the graphical user interface of the first terminal and each second terminal. The current information prompt interface includes a map display area of ​​the map scene that may be entered. The first player can observe the current map through the first terminal and the second player can observe the current map through the second terminal. Both the first player and the second player can recommend replacements for the current map (for example, the second player has already challenged the current map and needs to change the map). However, it is worth noting that for the operation of changing the map, the second player can only recommend replacement maps, while the operation of whether to change the map and the map change process are all completed by the first player through the first terminal.

[0067] For example, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is one of the schematic diagrams of the information prompt interface of the first terminal provided in the embodiments of this application. The information prompt interface 300 of the first terminal includes a map display area 310, which is used to display the current map that is about to be entered.

[0068] In one possible implementation, a game may consist of multiple rounds (one round is defined as the period from entering the selected map to starting the challenge until the map challenge is completed and a winner is determined). Therefore, in this embodiment, the preparation phase of the game refers to the period before the start of each round. Thus, the map replacement process can be performed before the start of each round.

[0069] In this embodiment of the application, for the map replacement operation, the second player participating in or watching the game may submit a map replacement request to the first player who created the room through the second terminal, or the first player may directly perform the map replacement operation through the first terminal and synchronize the replaced map to the second terminal. The operation process of map replacement in this application will be described below from two aspects: the second terminal submitting a map replacement request to the first player who created the room and the first player directly performing the map replacement operation through the first terminal.

[0070] Firstly, a second player participating in or watching the game sends a map replacement request to the first player who created the room via a second terminal. The first player then receives the request via their first terminal and decides whether to proceed with the map replacement.

[0071] S202, responding to the map recommendation operation on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, determining the map to be recommended, and generating map recommendation information.

[0072] In this embodiment of the application, if the second player wants to change the map, he / she can select the map to be recommended through the map recommendation operation on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, and send the generated map recommendation information to the first terminal.

[0073] In one possible implementation, the second player can initiate a map recommendation process by triggering a control set in the graphical user interface.

[0074] Specifically, the information prompt interface displayed on the second terminal also includes a map replacement control; the step "responding to the map recommendation operation on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, determining the map to be recommended, and generating map recommendation information" includes:

[0075] a1: In response to the triggering operation of the map replacement control on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, determine the map to be recommended and generate map recommendation information.

[0076] In one possible implementation, the triggering operation for the map replacement control can be a touch operation on the map replacement control or a click operation on the map replacement control.

[0077] For example, when the terminal device is a mobile terminal, the triggering operation for the map replacement control can be a touch operation (long press, click, or swipe operation, etc.) on the map replacement control; when the terminal device is a PC, the triggering operation for the map replacement control can be a click operation on the map replacement control via an external input device (click operation via mouse, etc.).

[0078] In one possible implementation, if the second player performs the map recommendation operation at the start of the next game (where the graphical user interface of the second terminal displays an information prompt interface), the map replacement control can be displayed at a preset position in the map display area of ​​the information prompt interface (for example, the upper right corner of the map display area); if the second player performs the map recommendation operation at the settlement stage of the previous game (where the graphical user interface of the second terminal displays a game settlement interface), the map replacement control can be displayed at a preset position in the game settlement interface, and the second player can open the map recommendation interface and execute the map recommendation process by triggering the map replacement control.

[0079] For example, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4This is one of the schematic diagrams of the information prompt interface of the second terminal provided in the embodiments of this application. Taking the map recommendation operation performed by the second player at the beginning of the next game (the information prompt interface is displayed in the graphical user interface of the second terminal) as an example, the map replacement control can be displayed in the upper right corner of the map display area, and the display style can be a replacement arrow. The second player can execute the map recommendation process by triggering the map replacement control.

[0080] Furthermore, after the second player issues a map recommendation to the second terminal, a map recommendation interface will be displayed on the graphical user interface of the second terminal. The map recommendation interface displays multiple maps to be recommended, and the player can select the map to recommend to the first player through the selection operation on the map recommendation interface.

[0081] Specifically, the step "responding to the map recommendation operation on the graphical user interface of the second terminal and determining the map to be recommended" includes:

[0082] b1: In response to a map recommendation operation performed on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, a map recommendation interface is displayed on the graphical user interface of the second terminal; the map recommendation interface includes multiple maps to be recommended.

[0083] b2: In response to the selection operation of multiple maps to be recommended on the map recommendation interface, determine the map to be recommended.

[0084] In one possible implementation, the map recommendation interface displays multiple type filter controls, allowing players to select different types of recommended maps for display by triggering the type filter controls.

[0085] Specifically, the map recommendation interface displays multiple type filter controls; the multiple maps to be recommended are displayed through the following steps:

[0086] c1: In response to a trigger operation for any type of filter control on the second terminal, display multiple maps to be recommended under the map type corresponding to the type filter control in the map recommendation interface; or...

[0087] c2: When there is at least one map to be recommended recommended by the second player, at least one map to be recommended shall be displayed in the player recommendation display sub-interface included in the map recommendation interface.

[0088] Specifically, exemplarily, taking the second terminal as an example, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is one of the schematic diagrams of the map recommendation interface of the second terminal provided in the embodiments of this application, such as... Figure 5As shown, the controls can include type filter controls for selecting map release time and recommendation method: member recommendation type control (maps recommended by other players in the room), recommendation type control (recommendations made by the system based on different map situations in the system), latest type control (the most recently designed map within a preset time period), last month's popularity type control (the most popular map in the previous time period (which can be the map with the most player play counts or the map with the most recommendation counts)), popularity type control (which can be the map with the most player play counts or the map with the most recommendation counts throughout the game time period), collection type control (maps collected by the second player currently recommending the map), and current author type control (maps created by the second player currently recommending the map). The type filter controls can also include type filter controls for selecting map tag type: as shown in the figure, these can be decompression type controls, profound type controls, and challenge type controls.

[0089] For map type controls, each map has a corresponding type label when it is set up. The corresponding map can be filtered out by selecting the type filter control that selects the map label type.

[0090] In one possible implementation, the second player can trigger any type of filter control to display multiple maps of the map type corresponding to the filter control in the map recommendation interface. This allows for targeted display of maps that the second player prefers, reducing the time the second player spends searching for recommended maps and improving map search efficiency.

[0091] In one possible implementation, for the display of the map recommendation interface for the second player, if the second player does not filter for a specific type of map to be recommended using the type filter control, the map to be recommended displayed by default in the map recommendation interface is the map to be recommended using the recommended type control (the system makes recommendations based on the system's situation for different maps).

[0092] In one possible implementation, the display method for the member recommendation type control (maps recommended by other players in the room) can be divided into two types: one is to display it based on whether there are currently any maps recommended by other players in the room; if there are, the member recommendation type control can be displayed in the map recommendation interface, and players can open the player recommendation display sub-interface by triggering the member recommendation type control, where at least one map to be recommended is displayed; if there are currently no maps recommended by other players in the room, the member recommendation type control may not be displayed in the map recommendation interface, and players can directly display or show the map to be recommended based on the triggering of other type controls; the other type is to always display the member recommendation type control in the map recommendation interface, and if there are currently any maps recommended by other players in the room, a prompt message can be displayed at a preset position of the member recommendation type control, and players can open the player recommendation display sub-interface by triggering the member recommendation type control to view it.

[0093] In one possible implementation, when different types of filter controls are triggered to open different recommended maps, the display order of maps in the map recommendation interface can be based on the map's popularity (which can be the map with the most play counts or the map with the most recommendation counts) from high to low; or it can be based on the map's recommendation counts by other players from high to low.

[0094] In one possible implementation, in order to more accurately display the recommended maps needed by the second player, further reduce the second player's search time for recommended maps, and improve map search efficiency, a map filtering area can also be displayed in the map recommendation interface. Players can filter out recommended maps by inputting on the map filtering area.

[0095] Specifically, the information interaction method further includes:

[0096] d1: In response to the input operation of the map filtering area displayed on the second terminal, determine the input target map identification information.

[0097] d2: Based on the target map identification information, filter out the target maps to be recommended, and display the target maps to be recommended on the map recommendation interface.

[0098] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a second schematic diagram of the map recommendation interface of the second terminal provided in the embodiments of this application, as shown below. Figure 6 As shown, the map filtering area can be displayed in the upper right corner of the map recommendation interface. Figure 6 The filter area in the map filter area displays the prompt "Please enter the map name", and you should try not to obscure the type filter control or the displayed map to be recommended.

[0099] In one possible implementation, the second player can enter the target map identifier information (e.g., the name of the map) of the target map to be searched in the map filtering area. This can be the full name of the target map or keywords of the map name. Upon receiving the target map identifier information entered by the second player, the system filters out the target maps that match the target and displays the filtered target maps on the map recommendation interface.

[0100] The target map to be recommended can be displayed in descending order of relevance to the target map identifier information entered by the second player.

[0101] For example, if the target map identifier entered by the player is "X Amusement Park", the matched target recommended maps include... Figure 1 - "X Amusement Park", Figure 2 - "X Farm", land Figure 3 - "X Playgrounds": In this case, when displaying recommended maps based on matching relevance, the display order can be: Figure 1 - "X Amusement Park", Figure 3 - "X Playground", location Figure 2 - "X Farm".

[0102] In one possible implementation, when the second player selects a map to be recommended through the map recommendation interface, they can directly perform a touch operation at the location of the map to be recommended in the map recommendation interface to select the map; alternatively, a selection control can be displayed at each map to be recommended in the map recommendation interface, and the second player can select the map to be recommended by triggering the selection control at the preset location of the map to be recommended.

[0103] In one possible implementation, when the second player selects a map to be recommended in the map recommendation interface, a prompt message (which can be a text prompt message or a graphic prompt message: for example, displaying a selection box at the location of the map to be recommended, or highlighting the map to be recommended, etc.) can be displayed at the location of the map to be recommended to indicate to the second player that the map to be recommended has been selected.

[0104] Furthermore, after the second player displays the map to be recommended through the map recommendation interface on the second terminal, they can further trigger the generation of map recommendation information and send it to the first terminal through the trigger operation on the map recommendation interface.

[0105] Specifically, the map recommendation interface includes recommendation controls; the map recommendation information is generated through the following steps:

[0106] e1: In response to the triggering operation of the recommendation control in the second terminal, generate the map recommendation information based on the selected map to be recommended.

[0107] In the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is the third schematic diagram of the map recommendation interface of the second terminal provided in the embodiments of this application, as shown below. Figure 7 As shown, the recommendation control can be displayed in the lower right corner of the map recommendation interface, and should not obscure the type filter control or the displayed map to be recommended.

[0108] In one possible implementation, after the second player selects a map to be recommended, map recommendation information is generated by triggering the recommendation control. The map recommendation information includes the second player's player identification information (the second player's player name, etc.) and the map information of the map to be recommended (the map name, the map style, etc.). When the second player selects a recommended map on the second terminal, the map recommendation information is directly generated and sent to the first terminal.

[0109] Furthermore, regarding the display of the map recommendation interface on the second terminal, the display can be canceled directly after the second player finishes triggering the recommendation control; alternatively, a cancellation control can be displayed on the map recommendation interface, allowing the second player to cancel the display of the map recommendation interface on the second terminal's graphical user interface by touching the cancellation control after completing the map recommendation process.

[0110] In one possible implementation, after the second player generates map recommendation information and sends it to the first terminal by triggering the recommendation control on the map recommendation interface, the second player can send feedback information regarding the information reception status of the first terminal (for example, displaying "Map recommendation information has been sent to the first player" on the graphical user interface of the second terminal) to indicate to the second player that the current map recommendation information has been successfully sent.

[0111] Furthermore, after the second terminal generates map recommendation information and sends it to the first terminal, the first terminal will display the map recommendation information generated by the second terminal to prompt the first player to choose a map replacement.

[0112] S203. Display a map recommendation display area on the information prompt interface of the first terminal; respond to the map selection operation for the map recommendation display area displayed on the first terminal, switch the current map to the map to be recommended; the map recommendation display area is used to display the map recommendation information.

[0113] In this embodiment of the application, the first terminal may receive map recommendation information sent by multiple second terminals in the room at the same time. After receiving the map recommendation information sent by the second terminals, in order to reduce the obstruction of the first terminal's graphical user interface by multiple map recommendation information and to give the first player enough time to read the recommendation information, it will not choose to display all the received map recommendation information on the graphical user interface of the first terminal at the same time. Instead, it is necessary to filter the multiple map recommendation information and display it on the graphical user interface of the first terminal.

[0114] Specifically, the following steps are performed to display map recommendation information in the map recommendation display area on the information prompt interface of the first terminal:

[0115] f1: Receive at least one candidate recommendation message sent by multiple second terminals within a preset time period.

[0116] f2: Based on the player identifier included in each map recommendation information, and according to the preset priority sorting conditions, determine the highest priority candidate recommendation information from at least one candidate recommendation information as the map recommendation information.

[0117] f3: Display the map recommendation information in the map recommendation display area of ​​the first terminal.

[0118] In this embodiment of the application, at least one candidate recommendation message sent by multiple second terminals within a preset time period is collected, and the player identifier included in each map recommendation message is determined. The player who sent the map recommendation message is determined according to the player identifier, and the candidate recommendation message with the highest priority is determined as the map recommendation message according to the preset priority sorting conditions.

[0119] In one possible implementation, if it is necessary to display one map recommendation in the graphical user interface of the first terminal, then the candidate recommendation with the highest priority among the candidate recommendations can be selected and determined as the map recommendation. If it is necessary to display more than one map recommendation in the graphical user interface of the first terminal, then the multiple candidate recommendations can be sorted according to the priority of the candidate recommendations from high to low according to the preset priority sorting conditions, and the candidate recommendations that are ranked before the preset position (the number of map recommendations that the first terminal needs to display) can be determined as the map recommendation.

[0120] In one possible implementation, the preset priority sorting conditions are set based on the player relationship between the second player and the first player, the player identity of the second player, and the time when the second player sends map recommendation information through the second terminal.

[0121] Specifically, the preset priority sorting conditions include at least one of the following:

[0122] Sort by whether the player participated in the game; sort by the player's friendship relationship with the first player; and sort by the time the candidate recommendation information was received.

[0123] Among them, players who participate in the game have a higher priority than players who watch the game;

[0124] Among the players participating in the game, those who are friends with the first player have a higher priority than those who are not friends with the first player.

[0125] For players with the same friend relationship, those who receive the candidate recommendation information from the player's terminal earlier have higher priority than those who receive it later.

[0126] In this embodiment, it is first determined whether the second player is a player participating in the game. Players participating in the game have a higher priority than players watching the game. That is, players who participate in the game have a higher priority than players who watch the game. For players who are also participating in the game, the second player who is a friend of the first player has a higher priority than the second player who is not a friend of the first player. At the same time, for players with the same priority, the player who receives the candidate recommendation information sent by the player's terminal earlier has a higher priority than the player who receives the candidate recommendation information sent by the player's terminal later.

[0127] For example, within a preset time period, such as 10 minutes, if viewer A sends map recommendation information 1, friend W who is participating in the game sends map recommendation information 2, non-friend Z who is participating in the game sends map recommendation information 3, and friend Y who is participating in the game sends map recommendation information 4, and friend W sends map recommendation information earlier than friend Y, then, according to the preset priority sorting conditions, the sorting method for map recommendation information can be as follows: map recommendation information 2, map recommendation information 4, map recommendation information 3, map recommendation information 1. If the first terminal can only display one map recommendation information, then map recommendation information 2 will be displayed first.

[0128] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 8 , Figure 8This is a second schematic diagram of the information prompt interface of the first terminal provided in the embodiments of this application. The information prompt interface 300 of the first terminal displays a map recommendation display area 320, which displays player identification information 321, a map identifier to be recommended, and a map illustration 322 of the map to be recommended from the map recommendation information. In addition, the map recommendation display area also includes an accept recommendation control 323 and a reject recommendation control 324. The first player can choose to accept or reject the map recommended by the second player by triggering the accept recommendation control or reject recommendation control (the triggering process of the accept recommendation control or reject recommendation control will be described in detail later, and will not be repeated here).

[0129] In one possible implementation, for a map that is recommended by multiple second players, the map is considered to be highly popular. Therefore, the popularity information of the map needs to be displayed to the first player through the first terminal, providing the first player with some reference information for whether to accept the map.

[0130] Specifically, the information interaction method further includes:

[0131] g1: Determine the map information of the map to be recommended in each candidate recommendation information, and the map information of the map to be recommended in the map recommendation information.

[0132] g2: Determine the number of candidate recommendation information that matches the map type of the map to be recommended in the map recommendation information.

[0133] g3: Based on the quantity, display at least one map selection prompt on the graphical user interface of the first terminal.

[0134] In this embodiment of the application, after the first terminal receives multiple candidate recommendation messages from multiple second terminals simultaneously within the same time period, it is necessary to classify the candidate recommendation messages according to the corresponding map information (map type, etc.) of the map to be recommended in each candidate recommendation message and the map information (map type, etc.) of the map recommendation messages in the map recommendation messages, determine the number of candidate recommendation messages that are consistent with the map type of the map to be recommended in the map recommendation messages, and display at least one map selection prompt message on the graphical user interface of the first terminal according to the number.

[0135] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a third schematic diagram of the information prompt interface of the first terminal provided in the embodiments of this application, as shown below. Figure 9As shown, the map selection prompt information 330 displayed in the information prompt interface 300 can be multiple graphic information displayed continuously. The multiple graphic information is displayed according to a preset display frequency. After determining the number of candidate recommendation information that is consistent with the map type of the map to be recommended in the map recommendation information, the display frequency of the selection prompt information is determined according to the corresponding number, and the map selection prompt information is displayed according to the display frequency.

[0136] Furthermore, after continuously displaying map selection prompts, if another candidate recommendation message matching the map type to be recommended is received, the display of map selection prompts can be triggered again.

[0137] The map selection prompts only indicate to the first player that the currently recommended map has a high recommendation popularity through prompts (such as the density of consecutive prompts), without displaying the specific number of recommended maps. If the first player needs to know the specific number of recommended maps, they need to open the map recommendation interface through a trigger operation on the first terminal, and then open the player recommendation display sub-interface through the "Member Recommendation Type" control to view the specific number of recommended maps.

[0138] In another possible implementation, in order to further reduce the number of steps the first player has to check the number of recommended maps, the map selection prompt can also directly display the number of recommended maps recommended by the second player, thereby more intuitively assisting the first player in choosing whether to accept the recommended map.

[0139] In one possible implementation, in order to ensure that the first player can view map recommendation information from multiple second players, or to reduce the obstruction of the map recommendation information on the graphical user interface of the first terminal after the first player's operation on the map display area, it is necessary to set a mechanism to cancel the display of the recommended map information.

[0140] Specifically, the information interaction method further includes:

[0141] h1: In response to a map rejection or acceptance operation for the map recommendation display area displayed on the first terminal, cancel the display of the map recommendation information.

[0142] h2: Display other map recommendation information on the information prompt interface of the first terminal.

[0143] In this embodiment of the application, when the first player accepts or rejects the map recommendation display area, the map recommendation information is canceled. At this time, if there are multiple candidate recommendation information, other map recommendation information that can be displayed can be filtered again according to the priority of each candidate recommendation information (information with a priority lower than the previously displayed map information to be recommended, but higher than other map recommendation information), and the other map recommendation information is displayed on the information prompt interface of the first terminal.

[0144] In one possible implementation, as described above, the map recommendation display area displays an accept recommendation control and a reject recommendation control. Players can determine whether to accept or reject the map recommendation from the second terminal by triggering the accept recommendation control and the reject recommendation control. When the first terminal rejects the map recommendation from the second terminal, other map recommendation information needs to be displayed again; when the first terminal accepts the map recommendation from the second terminal, other map recommendation information needs to be displayed while the first terminal switches the map.

[0145] Scenario 1: The first player accepts the map recommended by the second terminal:

[0146] Specifically, the map recommendation display area of ​​the first terminal also includes a recommendation acceptance control; the step "responding to the map selection operation for the map recommendation information displayed on the first terminal, switching the current map to the map to be recommended" includes:

[0147] i1: In response to the trigger operation of the accept recommendation control displayed on the first terminal, switch the current map to the map to be recommended.

[0148] In this embodiment, if it is determined that the first player has received a trigger operation to accept the recommendation control displayed on the first terminal, and it is determined that the first player has accepted the map recommendation operation of the second terminal, then a map switching operation is performed on the first terminal to switch the current map to the recommended map. At the same time, the graphical user interface of each second terminal displays the map switching prompt information of the first terminal. After the map switching operation is completed on the first terminal, the map switching prompt information is displayed on each second terminal to inform each second player of the current map switching status and whether each second player considers participating in the currently switched map again.

[0149] Scenario 2: The first player rejects the map recommended by the second terminal:

[0150] Specifically, the map recommendation display area of ​​the first terminal also includes a rejection control; the step "responding to the map rejection operation on the map recommendation information displayed on the first terminal and canceling the display of the map recommendation information" includes:

[0151] j1: In response to the triggering operation of the reject recommendation control displayed on the first terminal, cancel the display of the map recommendation information.

[0152] In this embodiment of the application, the triggering operation for the reject recommendation control can be a touch operation on the reject recommendation control or a click operation on the reject recommendation control.

[0153] For example, when the terminal device is a mobile terminal, the trigger operation for rejecting recommendations can be a touch operation (long press, click, or swipe operation, etc.) on the reject recommendation control; when the terminal device is a PC, the trigger operation for rejecting recommendations can be a click operation on the reject recommendation control via an external input device (such as a mouse click operation).

[0154] In one possible implementation, when the first player rejects the map recommendation from the second terminal through the first terminal, the display of the map recommendation information needs to be canceled on the graphical user interface of the first terminal. Based on the priority of each candidate recommendation information, other map recommendation information that can be displayed (information with a priority lower than the previously displayed map information but higher than other map recommendation information) is filtered from the candidate recommendation information and displayed on the information prompt interface of the first terminal.

[0155] In another possible implementation, if the first player does not perform any operation on the map recommendation information sent by the second terminal after the first terminal displays the map recommendation information (the first player does not trigger the map rejection or acceptance operation to accept or reject the map recommendation information), then in order to reduce the obstruction of the map recommendation information on the graphical user interface of the first terminal, a mechanism for automatically canceling the display of the map recommendation information needs to be set.

[0156] Specifically, the information interaction method further includes:

[0157] k1: In response to the fact that the display time of the map recommendation information in the map recommendation display area of ​​the first terminal is greater than a preset display time threshold, the display of the map recommendation information is canceled.

[0158] k2: Display other map recommendation information in the map recommendation display area of ​​the first terminal.

[0159] In this embodiment, the preset display time threshold can be set according to specific display requirements or screen display mechanism (such as the screen refresh rate of the terminal). For example, the preset display time threshold can be set to 8 seconds. If the display time of the map recommendation information on the first terminal reaches 8 seconds and the first player does not perform an accept or reject operation on the map recommendation information, the display of the map recommendation information will be automatically canceled. At the same time, other map recommendation information will be displayed on the map recommendation display area of ​​the first terminal.

[0160] In one possible implementation, similarly, if there are multiple candidate recommendation information items, other map recommendation information that can be displayed can be filtered again according to the priority of each candidate recommendation information item (information with a priority lower than the previously displayed map information to be recommended, but higher than other map recommendation information items), and the other map recommendation information items are displayed on the information prompt interface of the first terminal.

[0161] Furthermore, if the first player receives map recommendation information from the second terminal on the first terminal, the first player needs to switch the current map to the recommended map by switching the current map, and at the same time synchronize this to all second terminals in the game room. After receiving the changed map, the second player can choose to leave the room or re-execute the preparation operation. At this time, after confirming that all players in the game room are ready, they enter the target scene corresponding to the recommended map and execute the corresponding game task.

[0162] S204. In response to the end of the game preparation phase, control the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game to enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended and execute the game task.

[0163] In this embodiment of the application, the end of the game preparation phase can be triggered by the first player issuing a game start operation on the first terminal. For the first terminal, the game start operation can be issued through interactive operation with the game start control displayed on the first terminal.

[0164] Specifically, the step "in response to the end of the game preparation phase, the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended and execute the game task" includes:

[0165] l1: In response to the triggering operation of the start game control on the first terminal, control the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game to enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended and execute the game task.

[0166] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is a fourth schematic diagram of the information prompt interface of the first terminal provided in this application embodiment. In order to reduce the obstruction of other information in the information prompt interface 300, the start game control 340 can be displayed in the lower right corner of the information prompt interface of the first terminal (it is worth noting that the game start control is only displayed on the first terminal, and the game start operation is issued by the first player). By triggering the game start control, the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game are controlled to enter the target scene corresponding to the recommended map and execute the game task.

[0167] In one possible implementation, when the first player issues the game start command through the first terminal, the game start command is synchronized to each second terminal in the game room. The graphical user interface of each second terminal can display a prompt message that the game is about to start, so as to prompt the second players to prepare to enter the game.

[0168] Furthermore, when the first player issues the game start command through the first terminal, the graphical user interface of both the first and second terminals in the game room will switch from the information prompt interface to the game screen displaying the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended. The first terminal controls the first virtual character and the second terminal controls the second virtual character to enter the target scene and perform game tasks.

[0169] In one possible implementation, when the first player switches the current map to the recommended map on the first terminal and synchronizes it to each second terminal, if the second player has already entered the preparation stage for the current map, they need to cancel the preparation and enter the preparation stage for the recommended map scene, or exit the current game room (the second player does not want to play in the recommended map scene).

[0170] Specifically, after the step of "responding to the map selection operation of the map recommendation information displayed on the first terminal and switching the current map to the map to be recommended", the information interaction method further includes:

[0171] m1: In response to the triggering operation of the cancel preparation control on the second terminal, cancel the preparation operation of the second terminal.

[0172] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 11This is a second schematic diagram of the information prompt interface of the second terminal provided in this application embodiment. In order to reduce the obstruction of other information in the information prompt interface, the cancel preparation control can be displayed in the lower right corner of the information prompt interface of the second terminal. After receiving the map switching information from the first terminal, the second player needs to cancel the preparation operation for the current map scene by triggering the cancel preparation control on the second terminal. If the player chooses to enter the recommended map scene, the player can re-enter the preparation stage. After the preparation stage, the player can send the preparation end information to the first terminal. After the first player receives the preparation operation of the second player on the first terminal, the first player can choose to issue the start game command.

[0173] In another possible implementation, after receiving the map switching information from the first terminal, the second player needs to cancel the preparation operation for the current map scene by triggering the cancel preparation control on the second terminal. If the second player does not want to enter the recommended map scene to perform game tasks, the second player can exit the current game room by triggering the operation in the information prompt interface of the second terminal. At this time, the first terminal will receive a prompt message that the second player has left the room. At the same time, the player information (player avatar information and player name information, etc.) of the second player who left the game room will no longer be displayed in the second information prompt interface of the first terminal and other second terminals in the game room.

[0174] Secondly, the process involves the first player directly performing the map replacement operation through the first terminal and then synchronizing the replaced map to the second terminal:

[0175] Specifically, after the step of "displaying information prompt interfaces on the graphical user interfaces of the first terminal and each of the second terminals respectively in response to the start of the game preparation phase", the information interaction method further includes:

[0176] n1: In response to a map switching operation performed on the first terminal, select a target switching map, switch the current map to the selected target switching map, and display map switching prompt information in the graphical user interface of the at least one second terminal.

[0177] n2: In response to the end of the game preparation phase, control the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game to enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended and execute the game task.

[0178] In this embodiment, the first player can also actively replace the map through the first terminal during the process of the second player recommending a map through the second terminal, before the second player recommends a map through the second terminal, or after the second player recommends a map through the second terminal.

[0179] In one possible implementation, the first player can initiate a map switching operation by triggering a control set in the graphical user interface.

[0180] Specifically, the information prompt interface displayed on the first terminal also includes a map switching control; the step "responding to the map switching operation on the first terminal, displaying a map recommendation interface on the graphical user interface of the first terminal" includes:

[0181] O1: In response to the triggering operation of the map switching control on the first terminal, display the map recommendation interface on the graphical user interface of the first terminal.

[0182] In the embodiments of this application, the triggering operation for the map switching control can be a touch operation for the map switching control or a click operation for the map replacement control.

[0183] For example, when the terminal device is a mobile terminal, the triggering operation for the map switching control can be a touch operation (long press, click, or swipe operation, etc.) on the map switching control; when the terminal device is a PC, the triggering operation for the map switching control can be a click operation on the map switching control via an external input device (click operation via mouse, etc.).

[0184] In one possible implementation, if the first player performs the map switching operation at the start of the next game (where the graphical user interface of the first terminal displays an information prompt interface), the map switching control can be displayed at a preset position in the map display area of ​​the information prompt interface (for example, the upper right corner of the map display area); if the first player performs the map switching operation at the settlement stage of the previous game (where the graphical user interface of the first terminal displays a game settlement interface), the map switching control can be displayed at a preset position in the game settlement interface, and the first player can open the map recommendation interface and execute the map switching process by triggering the map switching control.

[0185] For example, please refer to Figure 12 , Figure 12 The fifth illustration of the information prompt interface of the first terminal provided in the embodiments of this application takes the map switching operation performed by the first player at the beginning of the next game (the information prompt interface is displayed in the graphical user interface of the first terminal) as an example. The map switching control can be displayed in the upper right corner of the map display area, and the display style can be a replacement arrow. The first player can execute the map switching process by triggering the map switching control.

[0186] Furthermore, after the first player issues a map switching command to the first terminal, a map recommendation interface will be displayed on the graphical user interface of the first terminal. The map recommendation interface displays multiple maps to be replaced. The player can select the target map to switch to by making a selection operation on the map recommendation interface.

[0187] Specifically, the step "responding to the map switching operation on the first terminal and selecting a target to switch maps" includes:

[0188] p1: In response to a map switching operation on the first terminal, a map recommendation interface is displayed on the graphical user interface of the first terminal; the map recommendation interface includes multiple maps to be replaced.

[0189] p2: In response to the selection operation on the map recommendation interface, determine the target map to switch to.

[0190] In one possible implementation, similarly, multiple type filter controls are displayed on the map recommendation interface. Players can select different types of recommended maps to be displayed by triggering the type filter controls.

[0191] Specifically, as mentioned earlier, the type filter control can include type filter controls for selecting map release time and recommendation method: member recommendation type control, recommendation type control, latest type control, last month's popularity type control, popularity type control, collection type control, and current author type control; the type filter control can also include type filter controls for selecting map tag type: it can be decompression type control, profound type control, and challenge type control; and the map recommendation interface also includes a map filter area, through which players can directly filter and switch maps. The functions and specific triggering methods of the above type filter controls and map filter areas are consistent with those described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0192] In one possible implementation, the display method of the member recommendation type control can be divided into two types: one is to display it according to whether there are maps recommended by other players in the room; if there are maps recommended by other players in the room, the member recommendation type control can be displayed in the map recommendation interface, and players can open the player recommendation display sub-interface by triggering the member recommendation type control, and at least one map to be recommended can be displayed in the player recommendation display sub-interface; if there are no maps recommended by other players in the room, the member recommendation type control can not be displayed in the map recommendation interface, and players can directly display or show the map to be recommended based on the triggering operation of other type controls; the other type is to always display the member recommendation type control in the map recommendation interface, and if there are maps recommended by other players in the room, a prompt message can be displayed at the preset position of the member recommendation type control, and players can open the player recommendation display sub-interface to view it by triggering the member recommendation type control.

[0193] In one possible implementation, if there is a second player recommending a map to be replaced among multiple maps to be replaced via a second terminal, when the player opens the map recommendation interface through a trigger operation on the first terminal, the player recommendation display sub-interface corresponding to the member recommendation type will be displayed by default, and the map recommendation information corresponding to each map to be replaced will also be displayed in the player recommendation display sub-interface.

[0194] In one possible implementation, the map recommendation information includes at least one of the following:

[0195] The number of maps to be replaced that have been recommended, and the map recommendation prompts from the target players.

[0196] For example, please refer to Figure 13 , Figure 13 This is one of the schematic diagrams of the map recommendation interface of the first terminal provided in the embodiments of this application. When the first player opens the map recommendation interface, the player recommendation display sub-interface corresponding to the member recommendation type will be displayed by default. At the same time, the player recommendation display sub-interface includes two maps to be recommended by the second player. The first map to be recommended has been recommended 3 times by other players, and the second map to be recommended has been recommended 1 time by other players and has been recommended by a friend.

[0197] In one possible implementation, similarly, when the first player selects a target map to switch to in the map recommendation interface, a prompt message (which can be a text prompt message or a graphic prompt message: for example, displaying a selection box at the location of the target map to switch to, or highlighting the map to be recommended, etc.) can be displayed at the location of the target map to switch to, to indicate to the first player that the target map to switch to has been selected.

[0198] In one possible implementation, for the map replacement process, the first player has higher replacement authority than other second players. Therefore, when the first player performs the process of replacing the current map with the target map through the first terminal, other second terminals in the game room need to display a map switching prompt message to indicate that the first player is currently performing the map switching process through the first terminal.

[0199] Specifically, the map switching prompt information is displayed in the obscured area of ​​the map display area along with text prompt information;

[0200] The transparency of the obscured area is less than that of the map display area.

[0201] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 14 , Figure 14 The third illustration of the information prompt interface of the second terminal provided in this application embodiment shows that when the first player performs the process of replacing the current map with the target map through the first terminal, the corresponding information prompt will be displayed in the information prompt interface of the other second terminal. The obscured area and text prompt information are displayed on the map display area of ​​the second terminal. The transparency of the obscured area is less than the transparency of the map display area, that is, the obscured area will obscure the map display area. At the same time, as shown in the figure, the text prompt information can be "The host is selecting a map", indicating to the second player that the first player is currently performing a map switching operation.

[0202] In one possible implementation, while the first player is changing the current map to the target map via the first terminal, the second player will no longer be able to send map recommendation information to the first terminal via the second terminal. At this time, the second terminal can only see the operation prompt that the first player is changing the map, and waits for the first player to finish changing the map before obtaining the result of the first player changing the map.

[0203] Furthermore, for the first terminal, after selecting the target map through the map recommendation interface, the map replacement operation can be performed directly to switch the current map to the target map.

[0204] Specifically, the map recommendation interface also includes map modification controls; the step "switch the current map to the selected target switching map" includes:

[0205] q1: In response to a trigger operation on the map modification control on the first terminal, switch the current map to the selected target map.

[0206] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 15 , Figure 15 The second schematic diagram of the map recommendation interface of the first terminal provided in the embodiment of this application shows that the map modification control (the "Confirm Modification" control shown in the figure) can be displayed in the lower right corner of the map recommendation interface, so as not to obscure the type filter control and the displayed map to be replaced.

[0207] Specifically, when the first terminal receives the first player's trigger operation on the map modification control, it can directly cancel the display of the map recommendation interface, switch the display of the first terminal's graphical user interface to the information prompt interface, and execute the process of switching the current map to the target map.

[0208] In one possible implementation, when the first player issues the game start command through the first terminal, the game start command is synchronized to each second terminal in the game room. The graphical user interface of each second terminal can display a prompt message that the game is about to start, so as to prompt the second players to prepare to enter the game.

[0209] Furthermore, when the first player issues the game start command through the first terminal, the graphical user interface of both the first and second terminals in the game room will switch from the information prompt interface to the game screen displaying the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended. The first terminal controls the first virtual character and the second terminal controls the second virtual character to enter the target scene and perform game tasks.

[0210] Similarly, when the first player switches the current map to the recommended map on the first terminal and synchronizes it to each second terminal, if the second player has already entered the preparation stage for the current map, they need to cancel the preparation and enter the preparation stage for the recommended map scene, or leave the current game room (the second player does not want to play in the recommended map scene).

[0211] The information interaction method in the game provided in this application embodiment, in response to the start of the game preparation phase, displays an information prompt interface on the graphical user interface of the first terminal and each second terminal respectively; in response to the map recommendation operation on the graphical user interface of the second terminal, determines the map to be recommended and generates map recommendation information; displays the map recommendation display area on the information prompt interface of the first terminal; in response to the map selection operation for the map recommendation display area displayed on the first terminal, switches the current map to the map to be recommended; in response to the end of the game preparation phase, controls the first virtual character corresponding to the first terminal and the second virtual character corresponding to each second terminal participating in the game to enter the target scene corresponding to the map to be recommended and execute the game task. In this way, when a second player in the room has a map recommendation request, map recommendation information containing the map to be recommended is generated directly through the second player's operation on the second terminal, and the map recommendation information is displayed in the map recommendation display area of ​​the first player's first terminal that created the game room. The first player directly performs a map switching operation through the switching operation of the map recommendation display area displayed on the first terminal, switching the current map to the map to be recommended recommended by the second terminal. This reduces the time for determining the specific needs of changing the map and the replacement steps of finding the target map for replacement, which helps to improve the efficiency of map changing and human-computer interaction.

[0212] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides an information interaction device in the game corresponding to the information interaction method in the game.
