These game programs can be local applications installed on the electronic device, or web applications, lightweight applications, or mini-programs, etc., without limitation.

[0030] Next, as Figure 1 Taking the electronic device 1000 as the implementing entity, various embodiments of the battle process display method are explained.

[0031] <First Embodiment> Figure 2 A method for displaying the battle process according to some embodiments is shown, which may include the following steps S210 to S230: Step S210: In response to the user's viewing operation of the target battle process of the target battle event, display the first spatial position corresponding to the starting node of the target battle event and the second spatial position corresponding to the ending node of the target battle process.

[0032] In this embodiment, the target battle event has multiple battle processes, each corresponding to a different battle time period. For example, battle event 1 has battle process 11 and battle process 12. Battle process 11 corresponds to the battle time period from October 1st to October 15th, and battle process 12 corresponds to the battle time period from October 12th to the present. The interface can display a single battle process of the target battle event for the user to view, i.e., battle process 11 or battle process 12. The interface can also display multiple battle processes of the target battle event for the user to view, i.e., battle process 11 and battle process 12. When the target battle process is battle process 11, the start node of the target battle event is October 1st, and the end node of the target battle event is October 15th. The first spatial position is the spatial position where the target battle event occurs at the time node October 1st, and the second spatial position is the spatial position where the target battle event occurs at the time node October 15th.

[0033] In some examples, in response to a user's viewing action on a target battle event, the system displays a first spatial location corresponding to the start node of the target battle event and a second spatial location corresponding to the end node of the target battle event. For example, battle event 1 has battle process 11 and battle process 12. The battle time period corresponding to battle process 11 is 10.1-10.15. The first spatial location is the spatial location where the target battle event occurred at the time node 10.1, and the second spatial location is the spatial location where the target battle event occurred up to the present time node.

[0034] Step S220: Determine the object groups associated with the first spatial location and the second spatial location respectively.

[0035] In this embodiment, at the starting node, object group one engages in combat at a first spatial location; that is, object group one is the object group associated with the first spatial location. At the ending node of the target combat process, object group two engages in combat at a second spatial location; that is, object group two is the object group associated with the second spatial location.

[0036] Step S230: When the first spatial location and the second spatial location are simultaneously associated with the first object group, display the first directional marker constructed with the first spatial location as the starting point and the second spatial location as the ending point.

[0037] In this embodiment, the simultaneous association of the first spatial location and the second spatial location with the first object group can be: the virtual characters in the target part of the battle group one and the target part of the battle group two belonging to the same camp include: the virtual characters in the target part are the same virtual characters controlled by the same user, the virtual characters in the target part are different virtual characters controlled by the same user, and the virtual characters in the target part are virtual characters controlled by different users in the same camp. Here, the camp can be a team or group that the user joins.

[0038] In some examples, object group one includes virtual characters D1-D10, object group two includes virtual characters D8-D20, virtual characters D8-D10 are all virtual characters controlled by user E1, virtual characters D1-D7 are virtual characters controlled by user E2, virtual characters D11-D15 are virtual characters controlled by user E3, and virtual characters D16-D20 are virtual characters controlled by user E4. Since user E1 and user E3 belong to the same camp, then virtual characters D8-D10 and virtual characters D11-D15 are the target part.

[0039] In some examples, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first spatial location is the lower right boundary of plot K4, and the second spatial location is the upper left boundary of plot K4. The first directional marker constructed with the lower right boundary of plot K4 as the starting point and the upper left boundary of plot K4 as the ending point is the marker A4.

[0040] The battle progress display method according to the first embodiment of the present invention solves the problem that users need to subjectively judge the advancement routes of other users by looking at the battle markers of the battle points where battles occur. Based on this method, when a user needs to view the battle progress of a battle event, the spatial location of the start and end of the battle progress is displayed. Furthermore, when both spatial locations are associated with the same group of objects, a directional marker indicating the advancement route of that group of objects is displayed, so that the user can intuitively judge the advancement route of the group of objects, effectively improving the user's gaming experience.

[0041] <Second Embodiment> In this embodiment, in order to facilitate users to view the advance route of the target group with relatively abundant combat resources, the color, accompanying text or pattern displayed by the pointing icon can represent the target group with relatively abundant combat resources, so as to indicate the advance route of the first target group led by the target group with relatively abundant combat resources.

[0042] In these embodiments, relative to the first embodiment described above, after step S220, the method may further include the following step S310: Step S310: Based on the identifier attribute configuration associated with the second object group, set the first pointing identifier; wherein, the second object group is the object group in the first object group that has the upper limit of battle resources in the target battle process.

[0043] In this embodiment, battle resources can be battle kill points obtained from battles, battle mission completion amount, or battle attribute values, etc., and are not limited here.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first target group can be multiple teams within a faction, and the second target group is the team with the most combat resources among the multiple teams in that faction. A team can consist of multiple virtual characters controlled by a single user, or multiple virtual characters controlled by multiple users.

[0045] In this embodiment, the identifier attribute configuration associated with the second object group includes identifier color, identifier-attached characters, identifier-attached text, or identifier-attached pattern. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the identifier attribute associated with the second object group is configured as an identifier with attached character identifier C2, and the character identifier C2 is displayed at the first pointer identifier A2.

[0046] In this embodiment, the color, accompanying text, or pattern displayed by the pointing icon can represent a group of objects with relatively abundant combat resources, so as to indicate the advance route of the first group of objects led by the group with relatively abundant combat resources, so that users can view the advance route of the group of objects with relatively abundant combat resources.

[0047] <Third Embodiment> In this embodiment, in order to further improve the visibility of the directional markers, the minimum length of the directional markers is limited to reduce the occurrence of excessively dense directional markers.

[0048] In these embodiments, relative to the first embodiment described above, before step S220, the method further includes the following steps S410 and S420: Step S410: Determine the interval distance between the first spatial position and the second spatial position.

[0049] In this embodiment, given that the dimensions of each plot in the game scene are known, the distance between any two points in the game scene can be determined. That is, given that the first spatial position and the second spatial position are determined, the distance between the first spatial position and the second spatial position can be determined.

[0050] Step S420: If the interval between the first spatial position and the second spatial position is greater than or equal to a set distance, determine the object groups associated with the first spatial position and the second spatial position respectively.

[0051] In this embodiment, the distance can be set manually based on the size of the plots in the game scene.

[0052] In some examples, when the distance between the first spatial location and the second spatial location is less than a set distance, the location identifiers of the first spatial location and the second spatial location are displayed.

[0053] In this embodiment, by limiting the minimum length of the directional markers, the occurrence of overly dense directional markers can be effectively reduced, thereby improving the visibility of the directional markers.

[0054] <Fourth Embodiment> In this embodiment, in order to further improve the visibility of the directional marker, there are multiple second spatial locations, and one directional marker can point to different second spatial locations.

[0055] In these embodiments, relative to the second embodiment described above, the method further includes the following step S510 before step S220: Step S510: Set a first pointing identifier based on the first battle resources associated with the first object group in multiple second spatial locations.

[0056] In some examples, the first battle resource can be the battle resource obtained by various virtual characters of the first object group fighting in multiple second spatial locations. A third object group with an upper limit value of the first battle resource is determined within the first object group. Through the configuration of the identifier attributes associated with the third object group, first pointing identifiers are set, pointing to different second spatial locations. For example, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the first spatial position corresponds to a point on the lower left boundary of plot K3, the second spatial position corresponds to a point on the upper right boundary of plot K3, a point on the upper right boundary of plot K3, and a point on the right side boundary of plot K3. The identifier attribute associated with the third object group is configured as an identifier with attached character identifier C1. The constructed first pointing identifiers A11, A12, and A13 all take a point distributed on the lower left boundary of plot K3 as the identifier starting point and point to the corresponding second spatial position.

[0057] In some examples, the width of the dispersed first pointing marker is determined based on the first combat resources obtained by the third object group fighting in different second spatial locations. For example, as Figure 3As shown, the number of first battle resources obtained by the third object group in descending order is as follows: one point on the upper right boundary of the corresponding plot K3 - one point on the upper right boundary of the corresponding plot K3 in the second spatial position - one point on the right right boundary of the corresponding plot K3. Therefore, the width of the first pointing identifier A12 > the width of the first pointing identifier A11 > the width of the first pointing identifier A13.

[0058] <Fifth Embodiment> In this embodiment, in order to further improve the visibility of the directional markers, there are multiple first spatial locations, and different directional markers can point to a second spatial location at the same time.

[0059] In these embodiments, relative to the second embodiment described above, the method further includes the following step S610 before step S220: Step S610: Set a first pointing identifier based on the second battle resources associated with the first object group at multiple first spatial locations.

[0060] In some examples, the second battle resource can be the battle resource obtained by various virtual characters of the first object group fighting in multiple first spatial locations. A fourth object group with an upper limit on the number of second battle resources is determined within the first object group. Through the configuration of the identifier attribute associated with the fourth object group, a first pointing identifier is set to point to the same second spatial location. For example, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the first spatial position corresponds to a point on the lower left boundary of plot K1, a point on the upper right boundary of plot K1, and a point on the lower right boundary of plot K3. The second spatial position corresponds to a point on the upper right side of plot K3. The identifier attribute configurations associated with the fourth object group are identifier with attached character identifier C5 and identifier with attached character identifier C6, respectively. The constructed first pointing identifier A5, first pointing identifier A6, and first pointing identifier A7 all point to the point on the upper right side of plot K3.

[0061] <Sixth Embodiment> In this embodiment, in order to enhance the user's gaming experience, an adjustable timeline is provided. The interface for adjusting the timeline transitions from the first battle screen to the second battle screen, allowing the user to view the dynamic changes in the advance path of the target group.

[0062] In these embodiments, relative to the second embodiment described above, after step S230, the method further includes the following step S710: Step S710: In response to the user's adjustment operation on the timeline associated with the target battle event, the first battle screen is displayed and then transitions to the second battle screen; wherein, the first battle screen includes a first location marker representing a third spatial location in the target geographical area and a second directional marker pointing to the third spatial location, and the second battle screen includes a second location marker representing a fourth spatial location in the target geographical area and a third directional marker pointing to the fourth spatial location, wherein the second directional marker and the third directional marker correspond to the first spatial location corresponding to the starting node of the target battle event.

[0063] In this embodiment, the interface is set with a timeline, which displays touch points corresponding to different battle stages of the target battle event, for example, such as Figure 4 As shown, after a touch point is selected, the interface displays the first battle screen corresponding to that touch point. The first battle screen displayed on the interface consists of: first location markers indicating three different third spatial locations in the target geographical area, namely first location marker B4, first location marker B5, and first location marker B8; second directional marker A5 corresponding to first location marker B4; second directional marker A6 corresponding to first location marker B5; and second directional marker A7 corresponding to first location marker B8. After another touch point is selected, the interface displays the second battle screen corresponding to that touch point. The second battle screen displayed on the interface consists of: second location marker B2 indicating a fourth spatial location in the target geographical area; and third directional marker A8 corresponding to second location marker B2.

[0065] The response module 510 is used to respond to the user's viewing operation of the target battle event and the target battle process, and to display the first spatial position corresponding to the starting node of the target battle event and the second spatial position corresponding to the ending node of the target battle process. The determining module 520 is used to determine the groups of objects associated with the first spatial location and the second spatial location, respectively. The display module 530 is used to display a first directional marker constructed with the first spatial location as the starting point and the second spatial location as the ending point when the first spatial location and the second spatial location are simultaneously associated with the first object group.

[0066] In some embodiments, the battle progress display device 500 further includes a setting module, which is used to set a first pointing identifier based on the identifier attribute configuration associated with the second object group; wherein, the second object group is the object group in the first object group that has the upper limit of battle resources in the target battle process.

[0067] In some embodiments, the battle progress display device 500 further includes a distance determination module, which is used to determine the interval distance between the first spatial position and the second spatial position; and when the interval distance between the first spatial position and the second spatial position is greater than or equal to a set distance, to determine the object groups associated with the first spatial position and the second spatial position respectively.
