Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This application claims priority to a Chinese patent application filed on June 19, 2020, bearing application number 202010565126.9, and entitled "Data processing method, information presentation method and device," the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] The present disclosure relates to the field of gaming technology, and in particular to a data processing method, an information presentation method and an apparatus. [Background technology]

[0003] Idle card games provide players with a large number of different types of cards. Players need to collect cards and organize their own card team, and try to organize various lineup combinations to challenge various instances based on strategies such as bonds between different cards, formation settings, and skill combinations. That is, players usually need to organize card teams with different lineups when challenging different instances.

[0004] For each card, players need to consume in-game resources (such as coins, experience points, evolution materials, and other items) to increase the card level and improve the card's ability values. However, the resources required to increase the card level during the game must be obtained at a certain cost, and generally, the higher the card level, the more resources are consumed to increase the level.

[0005] While the resources that players can acquire in the game are limited in a short time, in order to embody the diversity of gameplay methods, players need to consume a large amount of resources to develop various cards so that they can organize different lineups of teams. The contradiction between limited resources and multi-card development is currently a major problem facing idle card games.

[0006] Therefore, a data processing method is required that can resolve the contradiction between limited resources and multi-card development. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0029] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings. Although the drawings show preferred embodiments of the present disclosure, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be realized in various forms without being limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present disclosure more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0030] In order to resolve the conflict between limited resources and multi-card development in idle card games, this disclosure proposes the idea of ​​resource reuse, which is to reduce resource consumption in the development process of multiple cards by reusing resources consumed in the development process of a card for other cards.

[0031] Furthermore, considering that the number of cards that can be accommodated in the lineup in idle card games is generally fixed, no matter how many cards a player develops, when challenging the same instance, they will generally only be able to participate in the challenge with a certain number of cards.

[0032] This disclosure combines the idea of ​​resource reuse with the above-mentioned features of idle card games to propose that when a player replaces a card in the lineup, the new card can inherit the resources of the old card. This allows a player to train a suitable number of cards based on the number of cards that can be accommodated in the lineup, without having to train each card owned by the player. In other words, by training a limited number of cards, it is possible to obtain the same technical effect as when a larger number of cards are trained, thereby satisfying the training of multiple cards and reducing the demand for resources.

[0033] Based on the above technical idea, the present disclosure proposes a data processing method, which can be used in card games (e.g., idle card games) and other non-card type games that require multiple game characters to participate in battles by forming a lineup.

[0034] The data processing method of the present disclosure may be executed by a game client, or may be executed by a game server corresponding to the game client. The data processing method of the present disclosure may be realized as an architecture shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a system for realizing the technical solution of the present disclosure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the system may include at least one game server 20 and a plurality of terminal devices 10_1, 10_2...10_N.

[0035] The terminal device 10 refers to any suitable electronic device having a screen display function used for network access. It may be a portable electronic device, for example, but not limited to, a smartphone, a tablet, or other portable terminal device. The terminal device 10 can realize transmission and reception of information to and from the server 20 via a network 40. Communication between the terminal devices 10 (for example, between 10_1 and 10_2 or 10_N) can also be performed via the network 40.

[0036] The game server 20 is used to process game logic. For example, the terminal device 10 can install and run a game client, and the game server 20 can transmit data required for the game client's execution process to the terminal device 10 via the network 40. For example, the game server 20 can access the database 30 to obtain data required for the game client running on the terminal device 10.

[0037] Network 40 may refer to a broad network for transmitting information and may include one or more communication networks such as a wireless communication network, the Internet, a private network, a local area network, a metropolitan network, a wide area network, or a cellular data network.

[0038] It should be noted that the addition of additional modules to the illustrated environment, or the removal of individual modules, does not change the underlying concepts of the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0039] For ease of explanation, a bidirectional arrow is illustrated from the database 30 to the game server 20, but those skilled in the art will understand that the transmission and reception of the above-mentioned data can be realized via the network 40.

[0040] In addition, in the following description, one or some of these mobile terminals (e.g., terminal device 10-1) will be selected and described, but those skilled in the art will understand that the above-mentioned 1 to N terminals are intended to represent a large number of terminals existing in a real network, and the illustrated individual game servers 20 and databases 30 are intended to represent the operation of the servers and databases according to the technical solution of the present disclosure. The specific number of mobile terminals and the individual game servers and databases are described in detail at least for the convenience of description, and are not intended to suggest any limitations on the types or locations of the mobile terminals and game servers.

[0041] The technical solutions of the present disclosure will be further described below with reference to specific examples.

[0042] Example 1

[0043] The present disclosure is applied to a card game as an example, where a player can organize a lineup through a game client. A lineup refers to cards that will participate in a battle designated by the player. In the process of organizing a lineup, a player can also assign card positions, i.e., arrange a battle. A position refers to a position where a card is placed during a battle. Each card corresponds to one card character. Generally, the maximum number of cards that can be accommodated in a lineup is fixed, and two cards with the same character are generally not allowed to appear in the same lineup.

[0044] A player can use resources acquired during the game to develop a card and increase the card's level and ability value. The card's level may include, but is not limited to, one or more of the following level indicators: the card's character level, evolution stage, number of star-ups, etc. Here, different level indicators can be leveled up using different types of resources. For example, the card's character level can be increased using experience points, the card's evolution stage can be increased using specific evolution materials, and the card's number of star-ups can be increased using specific star-up materials (e.g., character fragments, etc.). The card's ability value (i.e., ability data) is used to represent the combat power value that the card has at the corresponding level, such as life points, attack power, defense power, skill damage coefficient, etc.

[0045] In response to a card replacement operation of a game client for replacing a first card in a deployed state with a second card not yet deployed, first level information of the first card is acquired.

[0046] The first card refers to a card that is already in the lineup. The second card may be a non-in-battle card that the player owns. Based on a card replacement operation performed by the player through the game client, the player can determine the first card in the lineup to be replaced and the second card to be replaced with the first card.

[0047] The first level information is used to represent the first level of the first card, which is determined based on the resources allocated to the first card. The first level may include, but is not limited to, one or more of the level indicators, such as the character level, evolution stage, and star-up number of the first card. Here, different level indicators may use different types of resources to level up. For example, the character level of the card may be increased using experience points, the evolution stage of the card may be increased using a specific evolution material, or the star-up number of the card may be increased using a specific star-up material (such as a character fragment).

[0048] In this embodiment, the second card can directly inherit the level (i.e., the first level) of the first card, so that the level can be reliably inherited. For example, the level, evolution stage, and number of star-ups of the first card can be the level, evolution stage, and number of star-ups of the second card after direct replacement.

[0049] Considering that different cards have different attribute growth parameters such as three element (e.g., life points, attack power, defense power) growth, skill damage growth, etc., the second card can further calculate the first ability value of the second card at the first level after inheriting the first level of the first card, where the first ability value may be a value used to represent the combat power of the second card at the first level, such as life points, attack power, defense power, skill damage coefficient, etc.

[0050] After the first ability value is obtained by calculation, the first level information and the first ability value can be assigned to the second card. Assigning the first level information and the first ability value to the second card refers to providing the second card with the first level and the first ability value represented by the first level information.

[0051] The data processing method of this embodiment is executed by a game client for example, and can provide a first level information and a first ability value to a second card in a game scene. Provide the first level information and the first ability value to the second card in a game scene, that is, embody the first level information and the first ability value of the second card in the game scene.

[0052] The data processing method of this embodiment is, for example, executed by a game server corresponding to a game client, and the first level information and the first ability value are sent to the game client, and the first level information and the first ability value can be assigned to the second card by the game client in the game scene.

[0053] This allows the player to perform a card replacement operation on a card already in the lineup without the player having to perform any additional operations, and the newly deployed card can reliably inherit the level information of the replaced card. For example, compared to a solution in which the player "resets the card currently in the lineup and allocates the resources obtained by the reset to the newly deployed card," based on the present disclosure, the player can reliably inherit the level information of the card to be detached to the newly deployed card by switching with one touch, which greatly reduces the operation requirements of the player and does not consume or lose resources in the entire process.

[0054] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a lineup before and after a card is replaced according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0055] As shown in Figure 2, the original lineup includes card 1, card 2, card 3, card 4, and card 5. Here, the level information of card 1 is that the evolution stage is "+5" and the number of star-ups is "5 stars", and card 7 is an undeployed card owned by the player, and the player has not trained card 7. In other words, the resources allocated to card 7 before deployment are zero, and the evolution stage and number of star-ups of card 7 are both initial values.

[0056] In response to an operation of replacing card 1 in the player's lineup with card 7, card 7 can be directly controlled to inherit the evolution stage and number of star-ups of card 1. In other words, after the replacement, the evolution stage of card 7 becomes "+5" and the number of star-ups becomes "5 stars".

[0057] In this way, the player can ensure that the newly deployed card inherits the level information of the replaced card simply by executing a card replacement operation.

[0058] On the other hand, the card replacement operation may be a gesture operation such as a click or a swipe performed by the player on the game client, or a voice command issued by the player. Taking the case where the card replacement operation is a gesture operation as an example, the present disclosure can detect a gesture operation performed by the player on the game client, determine whether the gesture operation is a card replacement operation, and execute the data processing method for the card game of the present disclosure when it is determined that the gesture operation is a card replacement operation. Taking the case where the card replacement operation is a voice command as an example, the present disclosure can receive a voice input, determine whether the voice input is a voice command corresponding to the card replacement operation, and execute the data processing method for the card game of the present disclosure when it is determined that the voice input is a voice command corresponding to the card replacement operation.

[0059] As an example of this embodiment, considering that there are rank classifications in a card game, the resources required to level up cards of different ranks are generally different. For example, depending on the difficulty of summoning a card to a player and the rarity of the card, the card ranks can be classified from top to bottom as gold, red, orange, purple, green, and white, and the card level-up rules can be set so that the level-up of a high-ranked card requires more resources than the level-up of a low-ranked card.

[0060] When there is a classification of grades in a card game, and the resources required for leveling up cards of different grades are different, in order to make the inheritance of resources more reasonable, the present disclosure also proposes to compare the grade of the first card with the grade of the second card. If the grade of the first card is the same as the grade of the second card, the first level of the first card can be directly taken as the level of the second card, and a step of calculating the first ability value of the second card at the first level is performed.

[0061] When the grade of the first card and the grade of the second card are different, the resources allocated to the first card can be acquired. The resources allocated to the first card are the resources used by the player to develop the first card through the game client. The resources allocated to the first card are acquired, that is, the resources allocated to the first card are separated from the first card (at this time, the level of the first card can be returned to its original value), and the resources are made available for allocation (i.e., usable) again.

[0062] After obtaining the resource allocated to the first card, the resource can be allocated to a second card, and a second level of the second card after the resource allocation can be determined, where the level that the second card to which the resource is allocated can reach can be determined according to the card level-up and resource consumption rules according to the grade of the second card.

[0063] After determining the second level of the second card, the second ability value of the second card at the second level can be calculated, and the second level information and the second ability value can be assigned to the second card. The second level information is used to represent the second level of the second card determined based on the resources allocated to the second card. For the specific implementation of assigning the second level information and the second ability value to the second card, reference can be made to the above description of assigning the first level information and the first ability value to the second card, and will not be repeated here.

[0064] The data processing method of this embodiment can be realized as an information processing method, and the information processing method may be executed by accessing a storage device that stores the first object group information. Here, the storage device may be provided in a game server, and the information processing method may be executed by the game server.

[0065] The object is the card mentioned above. The first object group information is a first object group consisting of a first object (i.e., the first card mentioned above) in a lineup specified by a player, and related information thereof. The first object group information can be considered as lineup information to be used in a match set by a player. The first object group information can include a first object group consisting of a plurality of first objects to be used by a player in a match, first level information of the first objects, and ability values ​​of the first objects at the first level represented by the first level information.

[0066] The information processing method may include replacing a first object in a first object group with a second object (i.e., the above-mentioned second card) based on an object replacement operation performed by a player on a first object in the first object group, acquiring first level information of the first object from the first object group information, calculating a first ability value of the second object at the first level, and storing the first level information and the first ability value in the first object group information in association with the second object. Thus, the updated first object group information includes a replaced second object that inherits the level information of the replaced first object and has a corresponding ability value at the level represented by the level information.

[0067] As one example, the first object group information may further include a grade of the first object, and the information processing method includes: comparing the grade of the first object with the grade of the second object; and if the grade of the first object and the grade of the second object are the same, performing a step of calculating a first ability numerical value of the second object at the first level.

[0068] The first object group information may further include resources allocated to the first object, and when the grade of the first object is different from the grade of the second object, the method includes obtaining the resources allocated to the first object from the first object group information, allocating the resources to the second object and determining a second level of the second object after the resources are allocated, calculating a second ability numerical value of the second object at the second level, and associating second level information representing the second level of the second object determined based on the resources allocated to the second object and the second ability numerical value with the second object and storing them in the first object group information.

[0069] Based on an object replacement operation performed by a player on a first object in a first object group, the above-mentioned information processing method is executed to update the first object group information, and then, based on the updated first object group information, the game screen associated with the first object group presented by the game client is updated so that the updated game screen and the updated first object group information match.

[0070] For example, the updated first object group information may be transmitted to the game client, and the game client may update the game screen.

[0071] Also, for example, the game server may determine updated game screen data based on the updated first object group information, transmit the game screen data to the game client, and perform an update on the game screen presented by the game client.

[0072] 3 is a schematic flow chart of a specific application scene of the present disclosure. Each step of the flow chart shown in FIG. 3 may be executed by a game server.

[0073] As shown in Figure 3, the player can start a marching operation, and depending on the detection of the player's marching operation, it is judged whether the player has a card (such as a military commander card) to be marched, and if the judgment result is that the player does not have the card, the player can simply back away and wait for the player's next marching operation. If the judgment result is that the player has the card, it can further judge whether it is necessary to increase the card's position, that is, whether it is necessary to assign a new position for the card to be marched.

[0074] If the result of the judgment is that the position of the card needs to be increased, it is further judged whether the card has already been deployed, and if it has already been deployed, it can simply back up and wait for the player's next deployment operation. If the card has not been deployed, it can be assigned to an empty position, and an empty position refers to a position in the lineup to which no deployment card has been assigned.

[0075] If the determination result shows that the position of the card does not need to be increased, it can be further determined whether the card has already been deployed. If the card has already been deployed, it can be determined that the player's deployment operation is a card exchange operation that replaces the deployment card with another deployment card, and in this case, exchanging cards means exchanging the positions of two deployment cards in the lineup. If the card has not been deployed, it can be determined that the player's deployment operation is a card exchange operation that requires the replacement of a card that has not been deployed with a card that has already been deployed, and in this case, cards can be exchanged, and exchanging cards means replacing a card that has already been deployed in the lineup (corresponding to the first card described above) with a card that has not been deployed (corresponding to the second card described above).

[0076] When it is determined that a card has been replaced, the game client can instruct the player to output information presenting "whether to inherit" to allow the player to decide whether or not to inherit the level information of the replaced card to the new card. If the player selects YES, it can be controlled so that the new card inherits level information such as the level and evolution stage of the replaced card.

[0077] After replacing the card, it can be determined whether there is a change in the potential data of the newly deployed card. Here, the potential data refers to attribute data that cannot be generally inherited, and may be, for example, a job-related attribute that is exceptionally stimulated during the evolution process of the card. If there is a change, the game client can be notified, and finally the combat power value of the newly deployed card can be calculated. The specific calculation process can be referred to the above related description, and will not be repeated here. Optionally, if there is a bond between the newly deployed card and other deployed cards in the lineup, the combat power value of the entire lineup after replacement can also be calculated. The calculated combat power value can be notified to the game client, and the game parameters can be updated by the game client based on the calculation result.

[0078] Example 2

[0079] The difference from the first embodiment is that the second card used to replace the first card in the lineup may be a card to which some resources have been allocated, i.e., the second card may be a card that the player has already developed using resources.

[0080] In the case where the second card is a card that has already been developed by the player using resources, in order to make full use of the resources, in this embodiment, the second card may inherit the resources of the first card in addition to the resources previously allocated to the second card.

[0081] Specifically, in response to a card replacement operation of the game client for replacing a first card in a deployed state with a second card not yet deployed, the first resource allocated to the first card is acquired.

[0082] The resources allocated to the first card are the resources used by the player in the process of developing the first card through the game client. The first resources allocated to the first card are acquired, that is, the resources allocated to the first card are separated from the first card (at this time, the level of the first card can be returned to its original value), and the resources are made available for allocation (i.e., available for use).

[0083] After obtaining the first resource, the first resource is allocated to the second card, and a second level of the second card is determined based on the first resource and the second resource previously allocated to the second card, i.e., the resource previously allocated to the second card by the player before the first resource is allocated to the second card. Here, according to the card level-up and resource consumption rules, a level that the second card allocated with the first and second resources can reach can be determined.

[0084] Alternatively, when the resources required to level up a card are fixed, i.e., when the resources required to increase the card's level by one are the same, the first level of the first card determined based on the first resource assigned to the first card and the third level of the second card determined based on the second resource assigned to the second card can be directly added together, and the result of the addition can be regarded as the level that the second card to which the first and second resources are assigned, i.e., the second level, can reach.

[0085] Calculate a second ability value of the second card at the second level. The second ability value may be a value used to represent the combat power of the second card at the second level, such as life points, attack power, defense power, skill damage coefficient, etc.

[0086] After the second ability value is obtained by calculation, the second level information and the second ability value can be assigned to the second card, and the second level information is used to represent a second level of the second card determined based on the resources allocated to the second card.

[0087] FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a lineup before and after a card replacement according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0088] As shown in Fig. 4, the original lineup includes card 1, card 2, card 3, card 4, and card 5. Here, the level information of card 1 is that the evolution stage is "+5" and the number of star-ups is "5 stars", and card 7 is an undeployed card owned by the player, and when the player trains card 7, the level information of card 7 before deployment is that the evolution stage is "+1" and the number of star-ups is "1 star".

[0089] For example, in the case where the resources required to level up a card are fixed, when the player replaces card 1 with card 7 in the lineup, the evolution stage and number of star-ups of card 1 can be directly added to the original evolution stage and number of star-ups of card 7, so that the evolution stage of card 7 after the replacement is "+6" and the number of star-ups is "6 stars". In this way, when card 7 is replaced with card 1 that is already in battle, card 7 can inherit the level of card 1 in addition to its original level, making full use of resources and improving the level that card 7 can reach as much as possible, thereby enhancing the player's game experience.

[0090] The data processing method of this embodiment can be realized as an information processing method, and the information processing method may be executed by accessing a storage device that stores the first object group information. Here, the storage device may be provided in a game server, and the information processing method may be executed by the game server.

[0091] The object is the card mentioned above. The first object group information is a first object group consisting of a first object (i.e., the first card mentioned above) in a lineup specified by a player, and related information thereof. The first object group information can be considered as lineup information to be used in a match set by a player. The first object group information can include a first object group consisting of a plurality of first objects to be used by a player in a match, first level information of the first objects, the ability value of the first object at the first level represented by the first level information, and resources allocated to the first objects.

[0092] The information processing method includes: replacing a first object in a first object group with a second object (i.e., the second card described above) based on an object replacement operation performed by a player on a first object in the first object group; obtaining a first resource allocated to the first object from first object group information; allocating the first resource to a second object and determining a second level of the second object after the resource allocation; calculating a second ability value of the second object at the second level; and storing second level information representing the second level of the second object determined based on the resource allocated to the second object and the second ability value in the first object group information in association with the second object.

[0093] The second object can point to an object to which a resource has already been allocated in the past, and can also obtain the second resource that has already been allocated to the second object before the first resource is allocated to the second object. In this case, the second level of the second object can be determined when both the first and second resources are allocated to the second object. Thus, the updated first object group information includes the replaced second object that inherits the first resource of the replaced first object in addition to the previously allocated second resource and has an ability value at the corresponding level.

[0094] Based on an object replacement operation performed by a player on a first object in a first object group, the above-mentioned information processing method is executed to update the first object group information, and then, based on the updated first object group information, the game screen associated with the first object group presented by the game client is updated so that the updated game screen and the updated first object group information match.

[0095] For example, the updated first object group information may be transmitted to the game client, and the game client may update the game screen.

[0096] Also, for example, the game server may determine updated game screen data based on the updated first object group information, transmit the game screen data to the game client, and perform an update on the game screen presented by the game client.

[0097] Example 3

[0098] In this embodiment, a player can asynchronously switch between cards in the lineup. That is, a player can first detach one or more battle cards in the lineup, and then add a new non-battling card to the lineup. Here, the resources of the detached card are automatically detached from the card and become re-allocable resources. When a new non-battling card is added to the lineup, the previously detached resources can be assigned to the new battle card, thereby realizing resource reuse.

[0099] Specifically, in response to an operation by the game client to remove a first card in a battle state from a team, the resources allocated to the first card are released and saved. Releasing the resources allocated to the first card means that the resources allocated to the first card are separated from the first card (at this time, the level of the first card can be returned to its original value), and the resources become re-allocable (i.e. usable). As a result, the saved resources become re-allocable resources.

[0100] By way of example, the released resources may be retained in a resource pool, where the resources in the resource pool may include not only the resources assigned to the first card that was removed, but also any available resources currently remaining in the player's game account, i.e., any unassigned resources.

[0101] In response to an operation of the game client to add an undeployed second card to the team, at least a portion of the resources is allocated to the second card, and a second level of the second card after the resources are allocated is determined.

[0102] The number of resources allocated to the second cards may be determined based on a predetermined allocation principle. For example, the released resources may be divided by N based on the number of first cards removed from the lineup (optionally, the sum of the released resources and the available resources in the player count may be divided by N), where N is equal to the number of first cards removed from the lineup. For the second cards that each player wishes to add to the lineup, each of the determined resources may be allocated to the second cards.

[0103] The number of resources allocated to the second card may be set by the player. For example, the contribution to the challenged instance differs depending on the card, and the player can allocate a corresponding number of resources to the second card based on the degree of the effect of the second card on the challenged instance. When challenging an instance, the player can allocate more resources to the second card that provides more help to the challenged instance, and allocate less resources to the second card that provides less help to the challenged instance. This can realize flexible allocation of resources.

[0104] Calculate the second ability value of the second card at level 2. The second ability value may be a value used to represent the combat power of the second card at level 2, such as life points, attack power, defense power, skill damage coefficient, etc.

[0105] After the second ability value is obtained by calculation, second level information and the second ability value can be assigned to the second card. The second level information is used to represent the second level of the second card determined based on the resources allocated to the second card. Assigning the second level information and the second ability value to the second card means that the second card has a second level and a second ability value represented by the second level information.

[0106] The data processing method of this embodiment is executed by a game client for example, and can provide a second level information and a second ability value to a second card in a game scene. Provide a second level information and a second ability value to a second card in a game scene, that is, embody the second level information and the second ability value of the second card in the game scene.

[0107] The data processing method of this embodiment is, for example, executed by a game server corresponding to a game client, and the second level information and the second ability value are sent to the game client, and the second level information and the second ability value can be assigned to the second card by the game client in the game scene.

[0108] FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of a lineup before and after a card replacement according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0109] As shown in Figure 5, card 1 is a card that has already been deployed, and the level information of card 1 is that the evolution stage is "+5" and the number of star-ups is "5 stars." Card 7 is a card that the player owns that has not been deployed, and the player has not yet trained card 7. In other words, the resources allocated to card 7 are zero, and the evolution stage and number of star-ups of card 7 are both initial values.

[0110] In response to an operation of removing card 1 from the lineup performed by the player through the game client, card 1 can be removed from the lineup, resources allocated to card 1 can be detached from card 1, and the detached resources can be deposited in a resource pool. The resources in the resource pool are available resources, and the resource pool can include available resources not yet allocated in the game account in addition to resources extracted from the removed card.

[0111] In response to a card deployment operation performed by the player through the game client to add card 7 to the lineup, resources in the resource pool can be allocated to card 7 to develop card 7. For example, the evolution stage of card 7 after development can be "+5" and the number of star-ups can be "5 stars."

[0112] The data processing method of this embodiment can be realized as an information processing method, and the information processing method may be executed by accessing a storage device that stores the first object group information. Here, the storage device may be provided in a game server, and the information processing method may be executed by the game server.

[0113] The object is the card mentioned above. The first object group information is a first object group consisting of a first object (i.e., the first card mentioned above) in a lineup specified by a player, and related information thereof. The first object group information can be considered as lineup information to be used in a match set by a player. The first object group information can include a first object group consisting of a plurality of first objects to be used by a player in a match, first level information of the first objects, the ability value of the first object at the first level represented by the first level information, and resources allocated to the first objects.

[0114] The information processing method includes: deleting a first object in the first object group and marking resources allocated to the first object as unallocated based on an object removal operation performed by a player on the first object in the first object group; adding a second object to the first object group and allocating at least a portion of the resources marked as unallocated to the second object based on an object addition operation performed by the player on the first object group; determining a second level of the second object based on the resources allocated to the second object; calculating a second ability numerical value of the second object at the second level; and storing second level information representing the second level of the second object determined based on the resources allocated to the second object and the second ability numerical value in association with the second object in first object group information.

[0115] After executing the above-mentioned information processing method to update the first object group information, an update is performed on the game screen associated with the first object group presented by the game client based on the updated first object group information, so that the updated game screen matches the updated first object group information.

[0116] For example, the updated first object group information may be transmitted to the game client, and the game client may update the game screen.

[0117] Also, for example, the game server may determine updated game screen data based on the updated first object group information, transmit the game screen data to the game client, and perform an update on the game screen presented by the game client.

[0118] Example 4

[0119] In this embodiment, the player is supported to replace multiple deployed cards with one card that is not deployed, that is, the player's "many-to-one swap" operation is supported. In response to the player's "many-to-one swap" operation, the resources of multiple cards can be concentrated and allocated to one card, that is, the newly deployed card can inherit the resources of the multiple cards that were removed.

[0120] Specifically, in response to a card replacement operation of a game client in which a plurality of first cards in a deployed state are replaced with second cards not yet deployed, the total amount of resources allocated to the plurality of first cards is obtained. The total amount of resources is allocated to a second card, and a second level of the second card after the resource allocation is determined. A second ability value of the second card at the second level is calculated. Second level information and the second ability value are assigned to the second card.

[0121] For example, if resources have already been allocated to the second card previously, the second level of the second card can be determined based on the total resources allocated to the second card and the resources already allocated to the second card previously (i.e., the second resources mentioned above).

[0122] Regarding the parts of this embodiment that are similar to those of the above-mentioned embodiments, reference may be made to the explanations of the above-mentioned related embodiments, and therefore, they will not be repeated here.

[0123] Example 5

[0124] This embodiment supports the player to replace one deployed card with multiple undeployed cards, i.e., supports the player's "one-to-many replacement" operation. In response to the player's "one-to-many replacement" operation, the resources of one card can be allocated to multiple cards, i.e., multiple newly deployed cards can inherit the resources of one removed card.

[0125] Specifically, in response to a card replacement operation of a game client in which a first card in a deployed state is replaced with a plurality of second cards not yet deployed, a first resource allocated to the first card is acquired. The first resource is allocated to a plurality of second cards, and a second level of the second card after the resource allocation is determined. A second ability value of the second card at the second level is calculated. Second level information and the second ability value are assigned to the second card.

[0126] When allocating the first resource to the second cards, the number of resources allocated to each second card may be determined based on a predetermined allocation principle or may be specified by the player. For example, the first resource may be allocated evenly to the second cards, or the number of resources allocated to the second cards may be determined by the player.

[0127] In one application scenario of this embodiment, a player can intensively allocate resources acquired in a game to the main card (i.e., the first card) that the player is primarily cultivating. When combining a lineup, if the main card is not deployed, the player can separate resources from the main card and reallocate them to multiple cards waiting to be deployed as designated by the player. This allows the player to consume resources to cultivate only a limited number of main cards (e.g., one card), and achieves the same technical effect as multi-card cultivation.

[0128] Regarding the parts of this embodiment that are similar to those of the above-mentioned embodiments, reference may be made to the explanations of the above-mentioned related embodiments, and therefore, they will not be repeated here.

[0129] Example 6

[0130] In this embodiment, resource transfer can also be performed between different cards in the same lineup, i.e., campaign card A can inherit part of the resources of campaign card B.

[0131] Specifically, a portion of the resources is obtained in response to a resource transfer operation of the game client for transferring a portion of the resources allocated to a first card in the lineup to a second card in the lineup; the portion of the resources is allocated to the second card, and a second level of the second card is determined based on the portion of the resources and the resources previously allocated to the second card; a second ability value of the second card at the second level is calculated; and second level information and the second ability value are assigned to the second card, i.e., the level information and ability value of the second card are updated.

[0132] At the same time as allocating a portion of the resources to the second card, it is also possible to determine the level of the first card after the portion of the resources has been separated, and then calculate the ability value of the first card at that level based on the determined level of the first card, and assign the determined level information and ability value to the first card, i.e., update the level information and ability value of the first card.

[0133] The first card and the second card are both cards that have already been deployed. The resource transfer operation may be a gesture operation such as a click or a swipe performed by the player on the game client, or may be a voice command issued by the player. Taking the resource transfer operation as an example of a gesture operation, the present disclosure can detect a gesture operation performed by the player on the game client, determine whether the gesture operation is a resource transfer operation, and execute the above-mentioned scheme when it is determined that the gesture operation is a resource transfer operation. Taking the resource transfer operation as an example of a voice command, the present disclosure can receive a voice input, determine whether the voice input is a voice command corresponding to the resource transfer operation, and execute the above-mentioned scheme when it is determined that the voice input is a voice command corresponding to the resource transfer operation.

[0134] The application scenario of this embodiment is that the player can directional reallocate resources to cards in the lineup based on the characteristics of the currently challenging instance, so that cards that are of great help to the challenging instance can inherit some or all of the resources of cards that are of little help to the challenging instance. This allows the player to develop a lineup organization strategy that not only adjusts the positions of cards, but also reallocates resources among cards that are already in battle, improving the playability of the card game.

[0135] Regarding the parts of this embodiment that are similar to those of the above-mentioned embodiments, reference may be made to the explanations of the above-mentioned related embodiments, and therefore, they will not be repeated here.

[0136] Example 7

[0137] This embodiment provides an information presentation method, which can be executed by a game client.

[0138] In response to a card replacement operation performed by a user through a game client to replace a first card in a deployed state with a second card not yet deployed, a first ability value of the second card at the first level represented by the first level information of the first card can be obtained. For example, the first ability value of the second card can be obtained from a game server.

[0139] After obtaining the first ability value of the second card, the first level information and the first ability value are assigned to the second card in the game scene. Assigning the first level information and the first ability value to the second card in the game scene means embodying the first level information and the first ability value of the second card in the game scene. For example, the second card screen after inheriting the first level of the first card can be presented on the lineup screen after replacement in the game scene.

[0140] Up to this point, the data processing method and information presentation method of the present disclosure have been described in detail in relation to specific examples, taking the application to a card game as an example. The data processing method and information presentation method described in each of the above-mentioned embodiments of the present disclosure can also be used in other types of games, such as non-card games. When the present disclosure is applied to other types of games, the "cards" mentioned in each of the above-mentioned embodiments can all be replaced with "objects", that is, the "first card" mentioned in each of the above-mentioned embodiments can be replaced with the "first object", and the "second card" can be replaced with the "second object". Here, the "object" is a general term for game characters owned by a player in the game.

[0141] Taking the application to a card game as an example, the data processing method and the information presentation method according to each of the above-mentioned embodiments of the present disclosure can also be realized as a corresponding data processing device and information presentation device. Hereinafter, the data processing device and the information presentation device of the present disclosure will be further described in relation to specific embodiments. Note that the data processing device and the information presentation device described later can also be used for other types of games such as non-card games. When the data processing device and the information presentation device described later are applied to other types of games, all of the "cards" mentioned in each of the embodiments described later can be replaced with "objects", that is, the "first card" mentioned in each of the embodiments described later can be replaced with the "first object", and the "second card" can be replaced with the "second object". Here, the object is a general term for game characters owned by a player in a game.

[0159] Corresponding to the data processing method described in the third embodiment, this embodiment provides a data processing device. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of a configuration of a data processing device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Here, the functional modules of the data processing device 800 can be implemented by hardware, software, or a combination of hardware and software that implement the principles of the present disclosure.
