[0020] Example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] The accompanying drawings, which are included to provide a further understanding of the disclosure and are incorporated in and constitute a part of this application, illustrate embodiments of the present disclosure and together with the description serve to explain the principles of the present disclosure. In the drawings:

[0022] In a game, when a player wants to view information of a virtual object such as an NPC, the player usually needs to approach the virtual object, trigger a menu, and select a specific option to view the required information. Such an interaction mode is relatively cumbersome and reduces the operation efficiency of the player. For example, when the player looks for an NPC to receive a specific task, the player may need to move to each NPC one by one to view the task information until the correct NPC is found. The entire process is time-consuming and inefficient, which affects the game experience. Moreover, due to the inconvenience of viewing information, the player may tend to remember more information, thereby increasing the memory burden.

[0023] In view of one or more of the above problems, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a game interaction method, aiming to simplify the interaction mode between the player and the virtual object and improve the convenience of the player in viewing information of the virtual object.

[0024] Figure 1 A system architecture diagram of an operating environment of the embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. The system architecture can include a terminal device 110 and a server 120. The terminal device 110 can be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a personal computer, a smart wearable device, a game console, or the like, which has a display function and can display a graphical user interface, which can include an interface of an operating system or an interface of an application program, etc. A game program, such as a client program of an online game, is installed on the terminal device 110. When the terminal device 110 runs the game program, a game interface is displayed through the graphical user interface. The server 120 generally refers to a background system that provides a game service in the embodiments of the present disclosure, which can be a server or a cluster of multiple servers. A game server program is deployed on the server 120 for executing game data processing on the server side. The terminal device 110 can be connected with the server 120 through a wired or wireless communication link to perform data transmission. The game interaction method in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be executed by any one or more of the terminal device 110 and the server 120.

[0025] In an embodiment, the above method can be implemented and executed based on a cloud interaction system. The cloud interaction system can be the system architecture described above. Various cloud applications can run under the cloud interaction system, such as cloud gaming. Taking cloud gaming as an example, cloud gaming refers to a game mode based on cloud computing. In the running mode of cloud gaming, the running subject of the game program and the presentation subject of the game picture are separated, and the storage and running of the control and interaction method in the game are completed on the cloud gaming server (which can be the server 120 described above). The role of the cloud gaming client (which can be the terminal device 110 described above) includes receiving and sending data and presenting game pictures. For example, the cloud gaming client can be a display device close to the user side with data transmission function, such as a mobile terminal, a television, a computer, a palm computer, etc.; and the information processing is performed by the cloud gaming server in the cloud. When playing the game, the player operates the cloud gaming client to send operation instructions to the cloud gaming server, the cloud gaming server runs the game according to the operation instructions, encodes and compresses the game picture data, returns the data to the cloud gaming client through the network, and finally decodes and outputs the game picture through the cloud gaming client.

[0026] In an embodiment, the above method can be implemented by the terminal device 110 alone. For example, without deploying the server 120, the terminal device 110 can run the game program in a single machine environment and execute the above method.

[0027] In an embodiment, a graphical user interface is provided by the terminal device 110, and the graphical user interface displays a first field of view picture corresponding to the first observation mode of the controlled virtual character in the game scene. The game scene refers to the virtual space where the virtual character in the game is located, including but not limited to mountainous areas, islands, streets, etc. The controlled virtual character is configured to be controlled by the terminal device 110. The controlled virtual character can have multiple observation modes, and different observation modes can correspond to different viewing angles or different observation devices. For example, the first observation mode is a mode in which the controlled virtual character directly observes through the eyes, and the second observation mode is a mode in which the controlled virtual character observes through a magnifying glass, a telescope, a scope of a sniper rifle, etc. The first field of view picture is a picture of the controlled virtual character observing the game scene in the first observation mode, which can be a picture that the controlled virtual character normally sees. For example, in a shooting game, the first field of view picture can be a first-person picture or a third-person picture that the player sees without using a high-power scope.

[0028] Figure 2 An exemplary flow of the game interaction method is shown, which can include the following steps S210 to S230:

[0029] Step S210: In response to the first preset operation, the second field of view corresponding to the controlled virtual character in the second observation mode is displayed in the graphical user interface; wherein the first field of view area corresponding to the first field of view is different from the second field of view area corresponding to the second field of view, and / or the scaling ratios of the first field of view and the second field of view are different.

[0030] Step S220: In response to the second preset operation, adjust the zoom ratio of the second view screen;

[0031] Step S230: In response to the display of a preset virtual object in the game scene in the second view screen, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the screen scaling ratio of the second view screen.

[0032] based on Figure 2 This method allows players to observe preset virtual objects through a second view. When a preset virtual object is within the second view, its information is displayed according to the zoom level of the second view. On one hand, this simplifies the interaction between the player and the virtual object, eliminating the need for the controlled virtual character to approach the preset object to trigger the display of its information, thus improving the convenience of viewing virtual object information. On the other hand, players can adjust the zoom level of the second view, displaying the preset virtual object's information accordingly, increasing the flexibility of information display and better meeting the diverse needs of players.

[0033] The following is about Figure 2 Each step in the process will be explained in detail.

[0034] refer to Figure 2 In step S210, in response to the first preset operation, the second field of view corresponding to the controlled virtual character in the second observation mode is displayed in the graphical user interface; wherein the first field of view area corresponding to the first field of view is different from the second field of view area corresponding to the second field of view, and / or the scaling ratios of the first field of view and the second field of view are different.

[0035] In this embodiment of the disclosure, both the first field of view and the second field of view are field of view based on the controlled virtual character. It can be understood that the first field of view and the second field of view are field of view with the controlled virtual character as the observer, and are game screens presented to the controlled virtual character.

[0036] The first preset operation is an operation of triggering display of the second field-of-view picture, such as an operation of starting the second observation mode, an operation of using an observation device such as a magnifying glass, an operation of activating an interactive observation function (a function of viewing virtual object information through the second field-of-view picture in the embodiments of the present disclosure), and the like. Exemplarily, an interactive observation control (such as a control in the style of a magnifying glass) is provided in the graphical user interface, and the operation of the player clicking the control is the first preset operation, which can trigger display of the second field-of-view picture.

[0037] The first field-of-view region is a field-of-view region corresponding to the first field-of-view picture in the game scene, and can be understood as that the first field-of-view picture displays a game scene picture in the first field-of-view region. Correspondingly, the second field-of-view region is a field-of-view region corresponding to the second field-of-view picture in the game scene. The first field-of-view region and the second field-of-view region can be different. For example, the first field-of-view region is a region that can be seen by the controlled virtual character in general, and the second field-of-view region is a small region that can be seen by the controlled virtual character using a scope, which is a partial region in the first field-of-view region. The picture zooming ratio refers to the ratio of the size of the display content in the picture to the actual size, and the picture zooming ratios of the first field-of-view picture and the second field-of-view picture can be different. For example, the first field-of-view picture is a picture directly seen by the controlled virtual character, and the picture zooming ratio thereof is 1; the second field-of-view picture is a zoomed-in picture seen by the controlled virtual character through the scope, and the picture zooming ratio thereof is 2 or 4.

[0038] In the case of displaying the second field-of-view picture, the first field-of-view picture can be kept displayed, such as displaying the second field-of-view picture through a window in the graphical user interface, and displaying the first field-of-view picture in the part outside the window, or the first field-of-view picture can not be displayed, such as displaying the second field-of-view picture through a window in the graphical user interface, and displaying a background pattern or the like in the part outside the window.

[0039] In an embodiment, the above-mentioned step of displaying, in the graphical user interface, the second field-of-view picture seen by the controlled virtual character in the second observation mode in response to the first preset operation comprises the following steps:

[0040] The second field-of-view picture is displayed in the aiming region in the graphical user interface in response to the first preset operation.

[0041] The aiming region can reflect the display effect of the observation device such as the scope, such as a circular region located in the center of the graphical user interface, and the aiming region is used to display the second field-of-view picture, which represents the picture seen by the controlled virtual character through the observation device. In this way, the relationship between the first field-of-view picture and the second field-of-view picture is convenient for the player to understand.

[0042] A virtual camera is a game program component that simulates the function of a real camera to capture a virtual game picture. The virtual camera is usually a virtual object that is invisible and has no collision volume, so that the player cannot perceive the existence of the virtual camera.

[0043] In an embodiment, the first field of view region is the capturing region (i.e. the framing region) of the first virtual camera, and the first field of view picture is a game scene picture captured by the first virtual camera. The second field of view region is the capturing region of the second virtual camera, and the second field of view picture is a game scene picture captured by the second virtual camera. The first virtual camera can be located at the head or eye of the controlled virtual character, so that the captured first field of view picture has a first-person effect, or the first virtual camera can be located behind the controlled virtual character and have a fixed positional relationship with the controlled virtual character, so that the captured first field of view picture has a third-person effect. The second virtual camera can be located on a viewing device such as a magnifying glass or a scope used by the controlled virtual character.

[0044] In an embodiment, the field of view angles of the first virtual camera and the second virtual camera are different, e.g. the field of view angle of the first virtual camera is greater than that of the second virtual camera, so that the first field of view region is greater than the second field of view region.

[0045] In an embodiment, the focal lengths of the first virtual camera and the second virtual camera are different, e.g. the focal length of the first virtual camera is less than that of the second virtual camera, so that the picture scaling ratio of the first field of view picture is less than that of the second field of view picture, and the size of the same virtual object in the second field of view picture is greater than that in the first field of view picture, so that the second field of view picture achieves the effect of magnified display.

[0046] With reference back to Figure 2 In step S220, in response to the second preset operation, the picture scaling ratio of the second field of view picture is adjusted.

[0047] The second preset operation is an operation for adjusting the zoom scale of the second field-of-view picture. Illustratively, in the case that the second field-of-view picture is displayed, a zoom control is provided, such as a control in the form of a slider bar, and the operation of the player on the zoom control is the second preset operation, such as the operation of dragging the slider bar to change the zoom scale value. If the player increases the zoom scale of the second field-of-view picture, the display content in the second field-of-view picture is enlarged, and if the player decreases the zoom scale of the second field-of-view picture, the display content in the second field-of-view picture is reduced. In an embodiment, in response to the second preset operation, the focal length of the second virtual camera is adjusted so that the zoom scale of the second field-of-view picture changes. For example, the zoom scale of the second field-of-view picture is increased by increasing the focal length of the second virtual camera, and the zoom scale of the second field-of-view picture is decreased by decreasing the focal length of the second virtual camera.

[0048] In an embodiment, as the zoom scale of the second field-of-view picture changes, the display content in the second field-of-view picture also changes. For example, when the zoom scale is increased, the display content is enlarged, and less display content can be accommodated in the second field-of-view picture, i.e., the second field-of-view region is reduced. When the zoom scale is decreased, the display content is reduced, and more display content can be accommodated in the second field-of-view picture, i.e., the second field-of-view region is expanded.

[0049] In an embodiment, the game interaction method further comprises the following steps:

[0050] In response to the third preset operation, the second virtual camera for capturing the second field-of-view picture is controlled to move to change the display content in the second field-of-view picture.

[0051] The third preset operation includes a view angle panning or rotating operation on the second field-of-view picture, which can substantially pan or rotate the second virtual camera so that the second field-of-view region changes. In an embodiment, the third preset operation includes an operation of the player controlling the controlled virtual character to move or to move the head (such as to raise the head, to lower the head, etc.), and when the controlled virtual character moves or moves the head, the second virtual camera also moves. For example, when the controlled virtual character panning, the second virtual camera synchronously panning so that the second field-of-view region panning. When the controlled virtual character rotates or rotates the head, the second virtual camera also rotates so that the second field-of-view region rotates around the controlled virtual character. In an embodiment, the third preset operation can also include an operation of the player controlling the observation device. For example, when the controlled virtual character uses a magnifying glass, a sighting scope or other observation device, a movement or rotation control of the observation device can be provided, and the player controls the second virtual camera to pan or rotate by operating the control, so that the second virtual camera can be adjusted without the controlled virtual character moving or moving the head.

[0052] With the movement of the second virtual camera, the display content in the second field of view picture changes, indicating that the picture seen by the player through the observation device changes. The player can align the second field of view area to the preset virtual object that needs to view information through a third preset operation, so that the information of the preset virtual object is displayed in the second field of view picture.

[0053] With reference to the foregoing Figure 2 In step S230, in response to the preset virtual object in the game scene being displayed in the second field of view picture, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field of view picture.

[0054] The preset virtual object is a virtual object in the game scene that supports presenting information through the interactive observation function, which can include an NPC in the game scene, an interactive virtual object, a friendly virtual character, an enemy virtual character, and the like. When the preset virtual object is displayed in the second field of view picture, it means that the player is currently observing the preset virtual object, and at this time, the information of the preset virtual object can be displayed to facilitate the player to view the information.

[0055] In an embodiment, in response to at least a partial area of the preset virtual object being displayed in the second field of view picture, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field of view picture. That is, when any part of the preset virtual object is displayed in the second field of view picture, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field of view picture.

[0056] In an embodiment, in response to a preset part (such as a head, a face) of the preset virtual object being displayed in the second field of view picture, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field of view picture.

[0057] In an embodiment, in response to the preset virtual object being entirely displayed in the second field of view picture, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field of view picture.

[0058] In an embodiment, in response to the preset virtual object in the game scene being displayed at any position in the second field of view picture, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field of view picture.

[0059] In an embodiment, in response to a preset virtual object in the game scene being displayed at a preset position in the second field-of-view picture, information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to a picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture. The preset position is a designated position in the second field-of-view picture, such as a central position, and can be set by a game developer. When the preset virtual object is displayed at the preset position, it indicates that the preset virtual object is the main display object in the second field-of-view picture, i.e., the current focus of observation of the player. At this time, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture, which is more in line with the needs of the player.

[0060] In an embodiment, a targeting mark is arranged in the targeting area, usually at a central position of the targeting area. The targeting mark can represent the preset position. The above-mentioned response to the preset virtual object in the game scene being displayed in the second field-of-view picture includes the following steps:

[0061] In response to the targeting mark being aligned with the preset virtual object, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture.

[0062] The targeting mark can be in the form of a sight, such as a small circle or a cross. The targeting mark being aligned with the preset virtual object means that the targeting mark intersects with the preset virtual object. The intersection can be complete intersection (i.e., the entire targeting mark is within the range of the preset virtual object) or partial intersection (i.e., a part of the targeting mark is within the range of the preset virtual object). The targeting mark being aligned with the preset virtual object means that the player is currently focusing on observing the preset virtual object. At this time, the information of the preset virtual object is triggered to be displayed.

[0063] In an embodiment, in response to a preset virtual object in the game scene being displayed at a preset position in the second field-of-view picture, information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to a picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture. The preset position is a designated position in the second field-of-view picture, such as a central position, and can be set by a game developer. When the preset virtual object is displayed at the preset position, it indicates that the preset virtual object is the main display object in the second field-of-view picture, i.e., the current focus of observation of the player. At this time, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture, which is more in line with the needs of the player.

[0064] In an embodiment, the information display parameter, such as information display size (e.g. font size of text information), information display color, etc., is determined according to the zooming scale of the second view picture, and then the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the information display parameter. Generally, the larger the zooming scale, the larger the display parameter, and the more obvious the information of the preset virtual object is displayed.

[0065] When the preset virtual object is displayed in the second view picture, it indicates that the player is observing the preset virtual object through the second view picture, and the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the zooming scale of the second view picture. Thus, the player can quickly and conveniently check the information of the preset virtual object.

[0066] In an embodiment, referring to FIG. 1, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the zooming scale of the second view picture, including the following steps S310 and S320: Figure 3

[0067] S310, determining a target information category from one or more to-be-displayed information categories according to the zooming scale of the second view picture;

[0068] S320, displaying the information of the preset virtual object in the target information category.

[0069] The to-be-displayed information category refers to the information category to which the displayable information of the preset virtual object belongs. For example, the preset virtual object is an NPC, and the displayable information of the NPC includes NPC name, task information provided by the NPC, and background information of the NPC. The to-be-displayed information category includes name information category, task information category, and background information category. The target information category is the information category to be displayed currently. The target information category is determined from the to-be-displayed information categories according to the zooming scale of the second view picture. For example, the larger the zooming scale, the more the target information categories. Alternatively, different to-be-displayed information categories are used as target information categories at different zooming scales.

[0070] In an embodiment, the to-be-displayed information category includes a first information category, a second information category, and a third information category. For example, the first information category is a name information category, the second information category is a task information category, and the third information category is a background information category. The target information category is determined from the to-be-displayed information categories according to the zooming scale of the second view picture, including the following steps:

[0071] If the zooming scale of the second view picture is in a first scale interval, the first information category is used as the target information category;

[0072] ​If the picture zooming ratio of the second field of view picture is in the second ratio interval, the first information category and the second information category are taken as the target information category.

[0073] If the picture zooming ratio of the second field of view picture is in the third ratio interval, the first information category, the second information category and the third information category are taken as the target information category.

[0074] The upper limit value of the first ratio interval is not greater than the lower limit value of the second ratio interval, and the upper limit value of the second ratio interval is not greater than the lower limit value of the third ratio interval, that is, the first ratio interval, the second ratio interval and the third ratio interval are sequentially increased. The game developer or the player can set the first ratio interval, the second ratio interval and the third ratio interval according to experience, game characteristics, business needs and the like. For example, the first ratio interval is [1, 2), the second ratio interval is [2, 5), and the third ratio interval is [5, +∞). As the picture zooming ratio of the second field of view picture increases, the number of target information categories gradually increases, from initially including only the first information category, to including the first information category and the second information category, and finally to including the first information category, the second information category and the third information category, that is, the information to be displayed gradually increases.

[0075] In the case of determining the target information category, the information of the preset virtual object under the target information category is displayed. For example, if the target information category includes the name information category, the name information of the preset virtual object is displayed; if the target information category includes the name information category and the task information category, the name information and the task information of the preset virtual object are displayed; if the target information category includes the name information category, the task information category and the background information category, the name information, the task information and the background information of the preset virtual object are displayed.

[0076] Therefore, the player can control the displayed information of the preset virtual object by adjusting the picture zooming ratio of the second field of view picture. If detailed information needs to be viewed, the picture zooming ratio is increased, and if brief information needs to be viewed, the picture zooming ratio is decreased. The flexibility of information display is improved, and the needs of the player can be better met.

[0077] In an embodiment, the game interaction method further includes the following steps:

[0078] In the case of displaying the information of the preset virtual object according to the picture zooming ratio of the second field of view picture, in response to the picture zooming ratio of the second field of view picture changing, the displayed information of the preset virtual object is adjusted according to the changed picture zooming ratio.

[0079] In the case of displaying the second field-of-view picture, the player can adjust the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture at any time, such as before displaying the information of the preset virtual object or after displaying the information of the preset virtual object. In the case of having displayed the information of the preset virtual object, if the player adjusts the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture, the displayed information of the preset virtual object is adjusted according to the adjusted picture zoom ratio. For example, the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture is originally in the first ratio interval, and the name information of the preset virtual object is displayed. If the player increases the picture zoom ratio so that it changes from the first ratio interval to the second ratio interval, the task information of the preset virtual object is displayed. In this way, the player can control which information to display according to his own needs, further increasing the flexibility of the player's operation.

[0080] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a second field-of-view picture is shown. When the player uses the magnifying glass, the aiming area 401 is triggered to be displayed in the graphical user interface, and the second field-of-view picture is displayed in the aiming area 401. The aiming area 401 is provided with an aiming mark 402, and when the aiming mark 402 is aligned with a preset virtual object 403, the information of the preset virtual object 403 is displayed according to the current picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture. For example, Figure 4 The current picture zoom ratio in the middle is 1, and only the name information (i.e., NPC name AAA) of the preset virtual object 403 is displayed.

[0081] In addition, in the case of displaying the second field-of-view picture, a picture zoom control 404 is also provided, and the player can drag the picture zoom control 404 to adjust the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture, i.e., adjust the focal length of the second virtual camera. For example, as shown in Figure 5 If the player adjusts the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture to 2.5 through the picture zoom control 404, the name information and the task information (i.e., NPC task requirements and task rewards) of the preset virtual object 403 are displayed. As shown in Figure 6 If the player adjusts the picture zoom ratio of the second field-of-view picture to 5 through the picture zoom control 404, the name information, the task information, and the background information (i.e., NPC background story) of the preset virtual object 403 are displayed.

[0082] In an embodiment, the game interaction method further comprises the following steps:

[0083] In response to the time length that the preset virtual object is displayed in the second field-of-view picture reaching a second preset time length, the preset virtual object is set as the current interaction object of the controlled virtual character.

[0084] The second preset time length is a view staying time length of triggering further interaction on the basis of viewing information, which can be set by a game developer or a player according to experience, game characteristics, business requirements and the like, such as 3 seconds. The second preset time length can be greater than the first preset time length.

[0085] If the time length of displaying the preset virtual object in the second view picture (or the preset position in the second view picture) reaches the second preset time length, it indicates that the player stays the second view picture on the preset virtual object for a long time and has the intention to interact with the preset virtual object. Therefore, the program automatically sets the preset virtual object as the current interaction object of the controlled virtual character.

[0086] In an embodiment, if the preset virtual object is set as the current interaction object of the controlled virtual character, the controlled virtual character can be triggered to execute a first interaction instruction, or the preset virtual object can execute a second interaction instruction. The first interaction instruction is a default interaction instruction of the controlled virtual character, such as moving or shooting towards the preset virtual object. The second interaction instruction is a default interaction instruction of the preset virtual object, such as speaking, waving hands and the like.

[0087] In an embodiment, the second view picture is displayed in a targeting area in the graphical user interface. The game interaction method further includes the following steps:

[0088] In the case of setting the preset virtual object as the current interaction object of the controlled virtual character, the targeting area is hidden, and the preset virtual object is displayed in an interaction display mode.

[0089] The targeting area is used to display the second view picture, and the second view picture is used to trigger viewing information of the preset virtual object and interacting with the preset virtual object. In the case of setting the preset virtual object as the current interaction object, the second view picture has played the above role, and the second view picture is no longer needed, so the targeting area can be hidden, that is, the second view picture is no longer displayed.

[0090] The interaction display mode is a display mode for facilitating interaction between the controlled virtual character and the preset virtual object, and the preset virtual object can be mainly displayed in the mode. Compared with viewing the preset virtual object through the second view picture, the interaction display mode can more intuitively reflect the state of interaction. For example, the preset virtual object is an NPC. In the case of setting the preset virtual object as the current interaction object, the targeting area is hidden, and an NPC interaction interface is entered, and the preset virtual object is displayed in the interface, so as to reflect that the controlled virtual character is interacting with the preset virtual object and facilitate the player to perform interaction operations.

[0091] In an embodiment, the game interaction method further includes the following steps:

[0092] When a preset virtual object is set as the current interactive object of the controlled virtual character, one or more interactive controls are provided for the preset virtual object;

[0093] In response to a trigger operation on a target interactive control, the controlled virtual character is controlled to execute a target interactive instruction with a preset virtual object; the target interactive control is a control among one or more interactive controls, and the target interactive instruction is the interactive instruction corresponding to the target interactive control.

[0094] Different interactive controls can correspond to different interactive commands. These controls can include chat controls, task acceptance controls, task submission controls, and trade controls. The target interactive control can be any of these controls. For example, if a player clicks the task acceptance control, the controlled virtual character will execute the corresponding target interactive command, i.e., the command to accept the task. Players can view preset virtual objects through a second-view screen and quickly execute interactive commands using these controls, greatly simplifying the interaction process and improving operational efficiency.

[0095] Figure 7 A schematic diagram is shown illustrating the setting of a preset virtual object as the current interactive object. When the aiming marker 402 is aligned with the preset virtual object 403 for a second preset duration (e.g., 3 seconds), the aiming marker 402 may change shape, such as changing from a dotted line to a solid line, indicating that the preset virtual object 403 has been successfully focused on, and the preset virtual object 403 is set as the current interactive object. Furthermore, refer to... Figure 8 As shown, the aiming area 401 is hidden, and a preset virtual object 403 is displayed in an interactive display mode, providing interactive controls, including chat controls, quest acceptance controls, quest submission controls, and trade controls. Players can further use these controls to trigger the controlled virtual character to execute interactive commands with the preset virtual object.

[0096] In an embodiment, a distance limit can be set for the interaction between the controlled virtual character and the preset virtual object. For example, in a case where the distance between the controlled virtual character and the preset virtual object is not more than a first preset distance, in response to the preset virtual object in the game scene being displayed in the second field-of-view picture, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zooming scale of the second field-of-view picture. Alternatively, in a case where the distance between the controlled virtual character and the preset virtual object is not more than the first preset distance, in response to the time length for which the preset virtual object in the game scene is displayed in the second field-of-view picture reaching a first preset time length, the information of the preset virtual object is displayed according to the picture zooming scale of the second field-of-view picture. For another example, in a case where the distance between the controlled virtual character and the preset virtual object is not more than a second preset distance, in response to the time length for which the preset virtual object is displayed in the second field-of-view picture reaching a second preset time length, the preset virtual object is set as the current interaction object of the controlled virtual character. For yet another example, if the preset virtual object has been set as the current interaction object of the controlled virtual character, and the distance between the controlled virtual character and the preset virtual object is not more than a third preset distance, one or more interaction controls for the preset virtual object are provided. The first preset distance, the second preset distance, and the third preset distance can be set by a game developer or a player according to experience, game characteristics, business requirements, and the like, so as to ensure that the interaction process in the game occurs within a proper distance.
