Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of computer technology, and more specifically, to a configurable UGC (User Generated Content) creation method, apparatus, and electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] User-generated content (UGC) games have attracted a large number of players with their high degree of freedom and creativity. These games not only provide rich gameplay content but also allow players to further enrich the game world by creating and sharing their own works. With continuous technological advancements and evolving player needs, UGC games will continue to develop and grow.

[0003] In current UGC building games, players can use basic components (such as foundations, walls, stairs, etc.) to build custom structures. One of the core experiences of this type of game is the component snapping function, where when a player brings one component close to another, the system automatically aligns them to the appropriate position.

[0004] In existing technologies, a fixed number of snap points are typically predefined for each component. When two components are close together, the system attempts to align their snap points. This technique simplifies the mesh of complex components into simple geometry (e.g., simplifying a staircase into a cuboid) and then applies standard snap rules. However, current solutions only support standard components such as rectangular components and cannot handle irregular structures with triangular foundations. Furthermore, the snap rules are hard-coded at the code level, requiring modifications to the core code to add new component types, resulting in poor scalability. Summary of the Invention

Based on the surface data of each surface of the preview component and the adsorbed component, the matching rule table is searched to determine the matching adsorption surface pair. The initial adsorption position is determined based on the adsorption surface matching pair, and the initial adsorption position is adjusted based on the obtained position offset to obtain the final adsorption position.

If two surfaces match, then those two surfaces are determined to be an adsorption surface matching pair.

[0011] In an optional implementation, the step of adjusting the initial adsorption position based on the obtained position offset to obtain the final adsorption position includes: The initial adsorption position is corrected according to the position offset defined in the matching rule table; The initial adsorption position is fine-tuned based on the point differences and size differences between the preview component and the adsorbed component to obtain the final adsorption position.

[0012] In an optional embodiment, the step of fine-tuning the initial adsorption position based on the point differences and size differences between the preview component and the adsorbed component to obtain the final adsorption position includes: Determine the center point of the bottom surface of the preview component and the target center point of the target surface of the component to be adsorbed that matches the bottom surface, obtain the difference between the center point of the bottom surface and the target center point, and revise the corrected preliminary adsorption position based on the difference; The initial adsorption position is fine-tuned based on the size difference between the preview component and the adsorbed component to obtain the final adsorption position.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a configurable UGC construction method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the order of some steps in the configurable UGC construction method of this embodiment can be interchanged according to actual needs, or some steps can be omitted or deleted. The detailed steps of this configurable UGC construction method are described below.

[0021] S11, Generate a virtual topology structure for irregularly shaped components in the UGC scene so that the irregularly shaped components and standard components maintain the same adsorption logic; S12, store all irregular and standard components into the component topology database; S13, Establish a matching rule table, which contains the adsorption surface matching relationship and position offset between different component types; S14, in response to the player's operation of selecting and moving the preview component from the topology database to the snapped component in the UGC scene, the component types of the preview component and the snapped component are obtained respectively; S15, based on the component types of the preview component and the adsorbed component, search the matching rule table to obtain the corresponding adsorption surface matching relationship and position offset, so as to obtain the final adsorption position, and complete the adsorption construction operation based on the adsorption position.

[0022] The configurable UGC construction method provided in this embodiment generates a virtual topology structure for irregularly shaped components, ensuring that the adsorption logic of irregularly shaped components and standard components remains consistent. This avoids the limitations of existing technologies that only support the adsorption of standard components and cannot handle the adsorption of irregularly shaped components such as triangular foundations. Furthermore, by configuring a matching rule table, modifications to the adsorption rules can be made without modifying the engine's core proxy, enabling the addition of new component types and the modification of adsorption rules. This avoids the problems of hard-coding adsorption rules at the code level and poor scalability found in existing technologies.

[0023] The specific implementation methods of each of the above steps will be explained in detail below.

[0024] In this embodiment, irregularly shaped components mainly refer to non-cubic components such as triangular foundations, while standard components mainly refer to cubic components such as rectangular foundations.

[0025] This embodiment generates a virtual topology structure for irregularly shaped components in a UGC scene. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 This step can be achieved in the following ways: S111, obtain the basic cube of the irregular component in the UGC scene, and obtain the vertex set composed of the midpoint of each side of the basic cube and the vertex of the specified face; S112, Determine the key point from the midpoint, and perform a rotation transformation on the key point to obtain the corresponding offset point; S113, Combine the offset point and the vertices of the specified face to construct a new vertex set for the specified face; S114, Update the vertex sets of other faces based on the new vertex set of the specified face; S115, Combining the vertex set of the specified face and other faces, construct the virtual topology of the irregular component.

[0026] In this embodiment, a base cube for the irregular component is obtained, which can be the smallest cube enclosing the irregular component. The midpoint of each edge in the base cube and the set of vertices of a specified face are obtained. The specified face can be the bottom or top face of the base cube.

[0027] The key points are determined from the midpoints of each edge. For example, the key point can be the midpoint of any edge on a specified surface. Then, the key points are rotated according to the set rotation angle and axis to obtain the rotated offset points.

[0028] Based on this, a new set of vertices on the specified face is constructed by combining the offset point and the vertices on the specified face.

[0029] One possible implementation is to use offset points to replace two vertices of a specified face, and then construct a new vertex set for the specified face using the offset points and the remaining two vertices. That is, if a specified face originally has 4 vertices, offset points can be used to replace two adjacent vertices of the original 4 vertices, thus obtaining a new vertex set consisting of the offset points and the remaining two vertices.

[0030] As another possible implementation, the midpoint and offset point of an edge on a specified face can be combined to form a new vertex, and a new vertex set for the specified face can be constructed based on the new vertex. For example, the midpoint and offset point can be merged according to their corresponding weights to obtain a new merged vertex. It should be noted that the number of new vertices obtained is also three, and a new vertex set is constructed based on these three new vertices.

[0031] After processing a specified face of the basic cube in the manner described above, the vertex sets of the other faces are updated based on the new vertex set of the specified face. A virtual topological structure of irregular components can be constructed based on the vertex sets of each face. The constructed virtual topological structure can be a structure containing three planes: a top face, a bottom face, and two sides, where the top and bottom faces are triangles. Thus, a virtual topological structure with 5 faces and 6 vertices is formed.

[0032] In this embodiment, the virtual topology of the irregular component constructed in the above manner is similar to the cube of the standard component, so that the irregular component is equivalent to the standard component in the adsorption calculation.

[0033] To avoid the poor scalability issues caused by hard-coding, this embodiment no longer uses hard-coding for the adsorption rules, but instead stores them in a table format. Specifically, a matching rule table is configured, which defines the adsorption surface matching relationships and position offsets between different component types.

[0034] In real-world applications, players select the desired component to be placed (i.e., the preview component) and bring it close to an existing snapped-to-the-grid component in the scene. The game application responds to this action by obtaining the component types of both the preview and snapped-to-the-grid components.

[0035] Based on this, and according to the component types of the preview component and the component being adsorbed, the matching rule table is consulted to obtain the corresponding adsorption surface matching relationship and position offset, thus obtaining the final adsorption position. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 This step can be achieved in the following way: S151, based on the component types of the preview component and the adsorbed component, search the component topology database to obtain the surface data of each surface of the preview component and the adsorbed component; S152, based on the surface data of each surface of the preview component and the adsorbed component, search the matching rule table to determine the matching adsorption surface pair; S153, determine the initial adsorption position according to the adsorption surface matching pair, and adjust the initial adsorption position based on the obtained position offset to obtain the final adsorption position.

[0036] In this embodiment, the component topology database stores the surface data of various components. For the preview component and the component being snapped, the surface data of each surface of the preview component and the component being snapped are obtained by searching the component topology database.

[0037] Then, based on the surface data of each face of the preview component and the adsorbed component, a matching rule table is searched to determine if there are any matching face faces.

[0038] Specifically, please refer to Figure 4 The step of determining the matching adsorption surface pair based on the surface data of each surface of the preview component and the adsorbed component can be implemented in the following way: S1521, Traverse each face direction of the preview component and the adsorbed component, and determine whether the two faces match based on the face data of the two traversed faces and the adsorption face matching relationship in the matching rule table. S1522, if two surfaces match, then the two surfaces are determined to be an adsorption surface matching pair.

[0039] In this embodiment, the preview component and the adsorbed component are traversed in each surface direction, including up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., to find whether the surfaces of the preview component and the adsorbed component have a matching relationship in each surface direction. The matching relationship is pre-configured and stored in the matching rule table.

[0040] If two surfaces are found to have a matching relationship, then these two surfaces can be identified as an adsorption surface matching pair.

[0041] After determining the adsorption surface matching pair, the initial adsorption position can be determined based on the adsorption surface matching pair, and the alignment offset of the two components in the corresponding surface direction can be further calculated.

[0042] The matching rule table is configured with corresponding position offsets, which can be used to adjust the initial adsorption position to achieve alignment offset processing. These position offsets can be set based on the rotation angle set during the aforementioned rotation processing, primarily to compensate for the offset between the irregularly shaped component and its corresponding virtual topology.

[0043] Specifically, please refer to Figure 5 The step of adjusting the initial adsorption position based on the obtained position offset to obtain the final adsorption position can be achieved in the following way: S1531, Correct the initial adsorption position according to the position offset defined in the matching rule table; S1532, the initial adsorption position is fine-tuned based on the point difference and size difference between the preview component and the adsorbed component to obtain the final adsorption position.

[0044] Considering the offset between the irregularly shaped component and its virtual topology, when correcting the initial adsorption position using the position offset, the difference between the face of the irregularly shaped component and the corresponding face of the adsorbed component may prevent precise alignment during adsorption. Therefore, fine-tuning based on the point differences between the two is also necessary. Furthermore, considering the potential volume differences between the irregularly shaped component and the adsorbed component, and consequently the area differences between their corresponding matching faces, fine-tuning based on their dimensional differences is also required.

[0045] Specifically, the step of fine-tuning the initial adsorption position based on the point differences and size differences between the preview component and the adsorbed component to obtain the final adsorption position includes: Determine the center point of the bottom surface of the preview component and the target center point of the target surface of the component to be adsorbed that matches the bottom surface, obtain the difference between the center point of the bottom surface and the target center point, and revise the corrected preliminary adsorption position based on the difference; The initial adsorption position is fine-tuned based on the size difference between the preview component and the adsorbed component to obtain the final adsorption position.

[0046] There may be no adsorption surface matching pairs between the surfaces of the preview component and the adsorbed component, or there may be one pair of adsorption surface matching pairs, or there may be multiple pairs of adsorption surface matching pairs.

[0047] Therefore, in the step of determining matching adsorption surface pairs based on the surface data of each surface of the preview component and the adsorbed component, candidate adsorption surface pairs are first determined based on the surface data of each surface of the preview component and the adsorbed component. If the number of candidate adsorption surface pairs exceeds one pair, the candidate adsorption surface pair with the smallest difference between the bottom center point and the target center point is obtained as the final adsorption surface pair.

[0048] The configurable UGC construction method provided in this embodiment enables irregularly shaped components such as triangles to acquire the same adsorption capacity as standard rectangular components through virtual topology mapping. Furthermore, a matching rule table is configured and hot-updated; when adding a new component type, only an entry needs to be added to the matching rule table, without modifying the engine code.

[0049] Based on the same inventive concept, please refer to Figure 6This invention also provides a functional module diagram of a configurable UGC construction device.
