[0014] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more comprehensible, the following describes the embodiments of the present application in more detail in conjunction with the drawings.

[0015] 1 is a schematic diagram of a virtual screen display system provided by an embodiment of the present application. The virtual screen display system includes a terminal 10 and a server 20.

[0016] The terminal 10 may be, for example, an electronic device such as a smartphone, a tablet, a game host, an e-book reader, a media player, a wearable device, or a PC (Personal Computer). A client of an application program (e.g., a game application program) is installed on the terminal 10. Optionally, the application program may be a downloaded and installed application program or a quick-run application program, which is not limited to the embodiments of the present application.

[0017] In the embodiment of the present application, the application program is any application program that provides a virtual environment and allows a virtual character operated by a user to act in the virtual environment. Typically, the application program may be a game application program, such as a TPS (Third-Personal Shooting Game), an FPS (First-person Shooting Game), a BR (Battle Royale) game, a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) game, a multiplayer gunfight survival game, etc. Of course, application programs other than game application programs can also display virtual objects to users and provide functions corresponding to the virtual objects. For example, the application programs may be VR (Virtual Reality) type application programs, AR (Augmented Reality) type application programs, 3D map programs, military simulation programs, social application programs, interactive entertainment application programs, etc., which are not limited to the embodiments of the present application. In addition, different application programs provide different virtual object forms and different corresponding functions, which may be pre-configured based on actual needs, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application. Optionally, the terminal 10 runs a client of the above application program. In some embodiments, the above application program is an application program developed based on a three-dimensional virtual environment engine, for example, the virtual environment engine is a Unity engine, which can build three-dimensional virtual environments, virtual objects, virtual props, etc., to provide users with a more immersive game experience.

[0018] The virtual environment is a scenario displayed (or provided) when a client of an application program (e.g., a game application program) is executed on a terminal, and the virtual environment is a scenario created for a virtual object to act (e.g., play a game), such as a virtual house, a virtual island, a virtual map, etc. The virtual environment may be a simulation environment for the real world, a semi-simulation semi-virtual environment, or even a full virtual environment. The virtual environment may be a 2D virtual environment, a 2.5D virtual environment, or a 3D virtual environment, which is not limited to the embodiments of the present application.

[0019] The above virtual object may be a virtual character controlled by a user account in an application program, or a virtual character controlled by a computer program in an application program. For example, the application program is a game application program, and the virtual object may be a game character controlled by a user account in a game application program, or a game monster controlled by a computer program in a game application program. The virtual object may be in the form of a person, an animal, an animation, or other aspects, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. The virtual object may be displayed in a three-dimensional form, or in a two-dimensional form, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. Optionally, when the virtual environment is a three-dimensional virtual environment, the virtual object is a three-dimensional solid model established based on an animation skeleton technology. In the three-dimensional virtual environment, each virtual object has its own shape and volume, and occupies a part of the space of the three-dimensional virtual environment.

[0020] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when controlling the virtual object to perform an action in the process of executing an application program on the terminal 10, the user may adjust the viewing angle of the virtual object in the virtual environment. Exemplarily, as shown in Fig. 2, in the process of executing the application program, the terminal 10 displays a first function control and a first virtual environment screen on a user interface, and further determines whether a first touch operation on the first function control is detected, and if the first touch operation on the first function control is detected, controls the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first function control, and if the first touch operation on the first function control is not detected, keeps the viewing angle of the virtual object as it is. Furthermore, when a first touch operation on the first function control is detected, the terminal 10 determines whether the touch position of the first touch operation has moved from within the first function control to outside the first function control, and if the touch position of the first touch operation has moved from within the first function control to outside the first function control, adjusts the viewing angle of the virtual object based on the position change status of the touch position and converts the first virtual environment screen into a second virtual environment screen based on the adjusted viewing angle, and if the touch position of the first touch operation has not moved from within the first function control to outside the first function control, maintains the viewing angle of the virtual object as it is.

[0021] The server 20 provides background services to clients of the application program on the terminal 10. For example, the server 20 may be a background server of the above-mentioned game application program. The server 20 may be one server, a server cluster consisting of multiple servers, or a cloud computing service center. Optionally, the server 20 provides background services to application programs on multiple terminals 10 simultaneously.

[0022] Optionally, the terminal 10 and the server 20 communicate with each other via a network.

[0023] Referring to Figure 3, it is a flowchart of a method for displaying a virtual environment screen provided by one embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to the terminal 10 of the virtual screen display system of Figure 1, for example, the execution body of each step is a client of an application program installed in the terminal 10. The method includes the following steps (301 to 303).

[0024] Step 301: Display a first virtual environment screen.

[0025] The virtual environment view is a display view of the virtual environment presented to the user in the user interface. The virtual environment view may be a view captured by a virtual camera from the virtual environment. In a possible embodiment, the virtual camera captures the virtual environment view from a third-person viewing angle of the virtual object. Optionally, the virtual camera is positioned diagonally above the virtual object, and the virtual camera allows the client to observe the virtual environment with the virtual object at its center, and captures and displays the virtual environment view with the virtual object at its center. In another possible embodiment, the virtual camera captures the virtual environment view from a first-person viewing angle of the virtual object. Optionally, the virtual camera is positioned directly in front of the virtual object, and the virtual camera allows the client to observe the virtual environment with the virtual object at its first-person viewing angle, and captures and displays the virtual environment view with the virtual object at its first-person viewing angle.

[0026] In the embodiment of the present application, in the process of executing the application program, the client displays a first virtual environment screen. The first virtual environment screen is a screen for observing the virtual environment at a first viewing angle of a virtual object, the virtual object being a virtual object controlled by a user in the application program, and the first viewing angle is an arbitrary viewing angle of the virtual object. Here, the first viewing angle is not limited to the first person viewing angle and the third person viewing angle, but represents the orientation of the virtual object when observing the virtual environment. Optionally, the first viewing angle may be an arbitrary viewing angle in the first person viewing angle or an arbitrary viewing angle in the third person viewing angle, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0027] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the orientation of the virtual camera can be adjusted in real time, that is, the user can adjust the viewing angle of the virtual object based on the actual situation. For example, the user can adjust the orientation of the virtual camera by sliding the user interface to adjust the viewing angle of the virtual object. Of course, in the exemplary embodiment, the placement position of the virtual camera can be adjusted in real time. For example, the user can use a joystick to control the virtual object to move in the virtual environment, change the position of the virtual object in the virtual environment, and further change the placement position of the virtual camera in the virtual environment. Also, for example, the user can click a position on the map display control to set the position as the adjusted placement position of the virtual camera. The map display control is a control for displaying a global map in a shooting application.

[0028] Step 302: In response to a first touch operation on a first functional control, a virtual object is controlled to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control.

[0029] The functional control controls the virtual object to perform a corresponding operation, and the actions corresponding to different functional controls are different. Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the user interface includes at least one functional control. In a possible embodiment, the functional control is directly displayed in the user interface, and optionally, the user displays the first virtual environment screen, and at the same time, displays at least one functional control provided by the application program to the user in the user interface. In another possible embodiment, the functional control is displayed in a hidden manner in the user interface, and optionally, the first virtual environment screen is displayed in the user interface, and from the user interface, a response area of ​​the at least one functional control provided by the application program to the user is determined, and the at least one functional control is not displayed in the user interface to ensure the cleanliness of the user interface. In another possible embodiment, the functional control is displayed in a semi-hidden manner in the user interface, and optionally, the first virtual environment screen is displayed in the user interface, and a response area of ​​at least one functional control provided to the user by the application program is determined from the user interface, and when any touch operation by the user on the response area of ​​a certain functional control is detected, the functional control is displayed in the user interface, and the user determines whether the functional control is a required functional control.

[0030] The touch operation is an operation triggered and generated by a user. Optionally, the touch operation can be an operation on any position in the user interface. The above touch operation can be a single-click operation, a double-click operation, a slide operation, etc., to which the embodiments of the present application are not limited. Optionally, the touch operations corresponding to different positions in the user interface are different. Exemplarily, the touch operation corresponding to a function control in the user interface is a single-click operation, and the user single-clicks the function control to control the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the function control; the touch operation corresponding to the display area of ​​the virtual environment screen in the user interface is a slide operation, and the user adjusts the viewing angle of the virtual object by a slide operation on the display area to display a new virtual environment screen in the user interface.

[0031] The first touch operation is a touch operation on a first functional control, and the first functional control is any one of the at least one functional control. In an embodiment of the present application, after displaying the first virtual environment screen, the client detects a user interface, and when detecting a first touch operation on the first functional control, controls a virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control. A touch start position of the first touch operation is a first position within a response area of ​​the first functional control, and the first position is an arbitrary position in the response area of ​​the first functional control.

[0032] Optionally, the response area of ​​said first functional control is an optional area in the user interface.

[0033] In a possible embodiment, the first function control is displayed on the user interface directly or half-hidden. Optionally, the response area of ​​the first function control is a region centered on the display area of ​​the first function control and has an area equal to or larger than the display area. Exemplarily, the response area of ​​the first function control is the display area of ​​the first function control. Optionally, the shape of the response area of ​​the first function control may be the same as or different from the shape of the display area of ​​the first function control, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0034] In another possible embodiment, the first function control is displayed in a hidden manner in the user interface. Optionally, the response area of ​​the first function control is an area that the designer sets based on the user's habits. For example, since the user is accustomed to controlling a virtual object to move with the left hand and controlling the virtual object to release a skill with the right hand, the designer places the response area of ​​the function control for controlling the virtual object to move on the left side of the user interface, and places the response area of ​​the function control for controlling the virtual object to release a skill on the right side of the user interface.

[0035] Optionally, the above actions may be any actions, such as an object use action, a posture change action, a skill use action, etc., to which the embodiments of the present application are not limited.

[0036] In a possible embodiment, the action is an action of using an object. Optionally, when detecting a first touch operation on the first function control, the client determines a virtual object corresponding to the first function control, and controls the virtual object to use the virtual object. In an exemplary embodiment, the virtual object may be called a virtual weapon, such as a virtual gun, a virtual bullet, a virtual explosive, etc. Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the function controls corresponding to different virtual objects are different, or the function controls corresponding to different virtual objects are similar but the corresponding touch operations are different.

[0037] In another possible embodiment, the action is a posture change action. Optionally, when detecting the first touch operation on the first functional control, the client determines a posture corresponding to the first functional control, and controls the virtual object to change from a current posture to a posture corresponding to the first functional control. The posture of the virtual object includes a standing posture, a crouching posture, a prone posture, a jumping posture, etc., which are not limited to the embodiment of the present application. Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the functional controls corresponding to different postures are different, or the functional controls corresponding to different postures are similar but the corresponding touch operations are different.

[0038] In another possible embodiment, the operation is a skill release operation. Optionally, when detecting a first touch operation on the first functional control, the client determines a skill corresponding to the first functional control, and controls a virtual object to release the skill corresponding to the first functional control. Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the functional controls corresponding to different skills are different, or the functional controls corresponding to different skills are similar but the corresponding touch operations are different.

[0039] Step 303: In response to the touch position of the first touch operation moving from the first position to the second position, a second virtual environment screen is displayed.

[0040] The second position is a position outside the response area of ​​the first function control, that is, in the embodiment of the present application, after detecting the first touch operation, the client detects the touch position of the first touch operation, and displays a second virtual environment screen when the touch position of the first touch operation moves from the first position to a second position outside the response area of ​​the first function control. The second position is any position outside the response area of ​​the first function control, and the second virtual environment screen is a screen for observing the virtual environment at a second viewing angle of the virtual object, and the second viewing angle has a different orientation from the first viewing angle. Similar to the first viewing angle, the second viewing angle does not limit the first person viewing angle and the third person viewing angle, but simply represents the orientation of the virtual object when observing the virtual environment.

[0041] Here, since the change process of the touch position of the first touch operation is continuous, the first touch operation is also called a slide operation during the change process of the touch position. Exemplarily, taking a shooting application as an example, as shown in FIG. 4, the user interface 40 includes a first virtual environment screen and a first function control 41 (shooting button), when the user clicks the first function control 41 with his / her finger, the client determines that the first touch operation on the first function control 41 is detected, and controls the virtual object to shoot the enemy virtual object 43 using a virtual weapon 42, and when the user's finger slides from within the response area of ​​the first function control 41 to outside the response area of ​​the first function control 41, the client determines that the first touch operation includes a slide operation, adjusts the direction of the viewing angle of the virtual object based on the slide operation, and further displays a second virtual environment screen on the user interface 40. The second virtual environment screen includes a newly appeared virtual object 44.

[0042] As described above, in the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, a first touch operation on a first functional control controls a virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control; when the touch position of the first touch operation moves from the first position to a second position outside the response area of ​​the first functional control, the virtual object is adjusted from a first viewing angle to a second viewing angle, and a second virtual environment screen is displayed based on the second viewing angle; that is, with the same touch operation, the virtual object can be controlled to perform a corresponding action, and the virtual environment screen can be adjusted according to the change in the touch position; when the virtual object is controlled to perform an action, the user only needs to slide his / her finger to adjust the viewing angle of the virtual object and adjust the displayed virtual environment screen; even if the user does not let go of the finger, the client can still respond to the user's sliding operation, which simplifies the user's operation to control the virtual object to perform an action, and improves the adjustment efficiency of the virtual environment screen.

[0043] The display method of the second virtual environment screen mentioned above will be introduced below.

[0044] In an exemplary embodiment, the above step 303 includes the following steps: 1. Obtain the touch position of the first touch operation. The touch position is a current contact position between the first touch operation and the user interface. For example, if the first touch operation is a click operation, the touch position is a click position of the click operation, and if the first touch operation is a slide operation, the touch position is a current slide end position of the slide operation. In an embodiment of the present application, after detecting the first touch operation, the client detects the touch position of the first touch operation in real time, and obtains the touch position of the first touch operation. 2. Calculate the distance between the touch position of the first touch operation and the reference position of the first functional control. In an embodiment of the present application, after obtaining the touch position, the client calculates a distance between the touch position of the first touch operation and a reference position of the first functional control, where the reference position is the center position of the first functional control. 3. If the distance is greater than a threshold, determine that the touch position is outside the response area of ​​the first function control, and display a second virtual environment screen with the touch position as the second position.

[0045] In an embodiment of the present application, after obtaining the distance between the touch position and the reference position, the client compares the distance with a threshold value. Further, if the distance is greater than the threshold value, the client displays a second virtual environment screen with the current touch position as a second position, and if the distance is equal to or less than the threshold value, the client keeps the orientation of the first viewing angle of the virtual object as it is. The threshold value is equal to or greater than the maximum distance between the center position of the first functional control and the edge position of the first functional control.

[0046] By using the distance between the current touch position and the reference position as the judgment basis, it is possible to accurately determine whether the current touch position is already outside the response area of ​​the first function control, thereby improving the response speed and accuracy of the adjustment to the viewing angle.

[0047] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, if it is determined that the distance is greater than a threshold, the client determines that the touch position of the first touch operation has moved from within the response area of ​​the first function control to outside the response area of ​​the first function control, and further obtains directional information of the touch position of the first touch operation relative to a reference position, determines an orientation of the second field of view angle based on the directional information, and displays the second virtual environment screen based on the orientation of the second field of view angle.

[0048] The directional information of the second position relative to the reference position can intuitively represent the orientation of the current touch position relative to the first functional control, allowing the user to accurately control the adjustment of the viewing angle direction based on the orientation, thereby improving the accuracy of the viewing angle adjustment.

[0049] Here, the virtual environment screen can also be changed by the movement of a virtual object, so even if the orientation of the first viewing angle of the virtual object is maintained, the first virtual environment screen may change due to the movement of the virtual object in the virtual environment.

[0050] Of course, in an exemplary embodiment, the above reference position may also be an edge point of the first function control through which the first touch operation is performed during the position movement process, and correspondingly, the above threshold value is any numerical value greater than zero.

[0051] Optionally, the above directional information includes a movement direction and a movement distance, and the client determines an orientation change direction of the first field of view angle based on the movement direction of the touch position relative to a reference position, determines an orientation change angle of the first field of view angle based on the movement distance of the touch position relative to the reference position, and further adjusts the first field of view angle to a second field of view angle based on the orientation change direction and the orientation change angle.

[0052] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the user performs custom adjustment to the adjustment rule corresponding to the virtual environment screen (i.e., the following custom operation rule) according to the actual situation, and the specific steps are as follows: 1. Get custom operation rules. The custom operation rule is an operation rule selected from a plurality of candidate operation rules. Optionally, the plurality of candidate operation rules includes a first operation rule. The first operation rule is an operation rule that, for a touch operation whose touch start position is within the response area of ​​the function control, cannot trigger a direction change when the touch position of the touch operation moves within the response area of ​​the function control, and can trigger a direction change when the touch position of the touch operation moves outside the response area of ​​the function control. Of course, in an exemplary embodiment, the plurality of candidate operation rules further includes at least one of a second operation rule and a third operation rule. The second operation rule is an operation rule that, for a touch operation whose touch start position is within the response area of ​​the function control, cannot trigger a direction change when the touch position of the touch operation moves, and the third operation rule is an operation rule that, for a touch operation whose touch start position is within the response area of ​​the function control, triggers a direction change when the touch position of the touch operation moves. Here, the direction change is a change in orientation relative to the viewing angle of the virtual object.

[0053] For illustrative purposes, taking the first function control as an example, and combining Table 1, the above three operation rules and the trigger conditions for changing the direction of the virtual object are introduced. [Table 1] Note that the trigger position in Table 1 is the trigger position of the first touch operation for the first function control, and the response area is the response area of ​​the first function control.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present application, the client obtains the above-mentioned custom operation rule through a user's selection operation in a configuration interface. Optionally, when the above-mentioned custom operation rule is obtained, the client first displays a configuration interface, in which the configuration interface includes options corresponding to the above-mentioned multiple candidate operation rules, and when detecting an operation on an option corresponding to a target operation rule in the above-mentioned multiple candidate operation rules, the client sets the target operation rule to the custom operation rule. Here, the operation on the option is also called a selection operation.

[0055] The configuration interface can intuitively display selectable candidate operation rules, allowing the user to accurately select the desired candidate operation rule.

[0056] Of course, in an exemplary embodiment, the above-mentioned configuration interface further includes other content options, such as a response area option of the function control, a display rule option of the function control, a display area option of the function control, an action operation rule of the function control, etc. Illustratively, as shown in Fig. 5, the configuration interface 50 includes an adjustment rule 51 of the virtual environment screen, an action operation rule 52 of the first function control, and a display rule 53 of each function control. The adjustment rule 51 of the virtual environment screen includes a first operation rule, a second operation rule, and a third operation rule, the action operation rule 52 of the first function control includes an action execution after pressing and an action execution after releasing, and the display rule of each function control includes a direct display, a hidden display, and a half hidden display. An option 54 is included in front of each selectable rule.

[0057] 2. If the custom operation rule is a first operation rule, execute step 303 of displaying a second virtual environment screen in response to the touch position of the first touch operation moving from the first position to the second position. The display method of the virtual environment screen corresponding to the first operation rule is the display method of the virtual environment screen introduced in the above embodiment of Figure 3, and specifically, refer to the embodiment of Figure 3, and no detailed description will be given here. The above-mentioned custom operation rules allow users to select appropriate custom operation rules according to their own usage habits, which improves the flexibility of operation.

[0058] 3. When the custom operation rule is the second operation rule, in response to a movement of the touch position of the first touch operation, the virtual object is controlled so as to maintain the first viewing angle as it is.

[0059] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when the above custom operation is a second operation rule, after detecting a first touch operation of the above first function control, the client controls the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first function control, and further, when detecting that the touch position of the first touch operation has moved, the client controls the virtual object to maintain the first viewing angle.

[0060] Here, when the client controls the virtual object to maintain the first viewing angle, the orientation of the first viewing angle is simply maintained, so in this case, when the virtual object moves and the position of the virtual object changes, the first virtual environment screen also changes to correspond to the change in position of the virtual object.

[0061] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, after controlling the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control, the client accepts a second touch operation. The touch start position of the second touch operation is a third position outside the response area of ​​the first functional control. Furthermore, if the custom operation rule is the second operation rule, when the touch position of the second touch operation is detected and moved from the third position to a fourth position, the client displays a third virtual environment screen. The third virtual environment screen is a screen for observing the virtual environment at a third viewing angle of the virtual object. The third viewing angle has a different orientation from the second viewing angle. Similar to the first viewing angle, the third viewing angle does not limit the first person viewing angle and the third person viewing angle, but simply represents the orientation when the virtual object observes the virtual environment.

[0062] Optionally, the third position may be any position outside the response area of ​​the first functional control, or any position in the target area, which may be a part of the remaining area of ​​the user interface excluding the response area of ​​each functional control, or may be the entire remaining area of ​​the user interface excluding the response area of ​​each functional control.

[0063] Optionally, the fourth position may be any position outside the response area of ​​the first functional control except the third position, or may be any position in the target area except the third position, or may be any position in the user interface except the third position.

[0064] The target area may be a part of the remaining area of ​​the user interface excluding the response area of ​​each function control, or may be the entire remaining area of ​​the user interface excluding the response area of ​​each function control.

[0065] Here, since the change process of the touch position of the second touch operation is continuous, during the change process of the touch position, the second touch operation is also called a slide operation.

[0066] In this way, in the embodiment of the present application, the user can further conveniently control the viewing angle orientation of the first virtual object based on a sliding operation without touching the first functional control, which simplifies the operation.

[0067] For example, referring to FIG. 6 in combination, the second operation rule will introduce a virtual environment screen display method, the specific steps of which are as follows: Step 601: Display a first virtual environment screen; Step 602: In response to a first touch operation on a first function control, control a virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first function control; Step 603: In response to the movement of the touch position of the first touch operation, control the virtual object so as to maintain the first viewing angle; Step 604: in response to a second touch operation whose touch start position is outside the response area of ​​the first function control, obtain a position change status of the second touch operation; Step 605: adjusting the virtual object from the first viewing angle to a third viewing angle according to a position change situation of the touch position of the second touch operation; Step 606: Adjust the first virtual environment view based on the third viewing angle.

[0068] 4. When the custom operation rule is the third operation rule, in response to the touch position of the first touch operation moving from the first position to a fifth position within the response area of ​​the first function control, a fourth virtual environment screen is displayed.

[0069] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, when the above custom operation rule is a third operation rule, after detecting a first touch operation of the above first function control, the client controls the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first function control, and when detecting a touch position of the first touch operation, moves from the first position to a fifth position within the response area of ​​the first function control to display a fourth virtual environment screen. The fourth virtual environment screen is a screen for observing the virtual environment at a fourth viewing angle of the virtual object, and the fourth viewing angle has an orientation different from that of the first viewing angle, and the fifth position is any position except the first position. Similar to the first viewing angle, the fourth viewing angle does not limit the first person viewing angle and the third person viewing angle, but merely represents the orientation of the virtual object when observing the virtual environment.

[0070] Here, in the above-mentioned third operation rule, when the touch position of the first touch operation is detected and moved from the first position to any position excluding the first position, the client can adjust the first viewing angle of the virtual object to adjust the first virtual environment screen.

[0071] For example, referring to FIG. 7 in combination, the third operation rule introduces a virtual environment screen display method, the specific steps of which are as follows: Step 701: Display a first virtual environment screen; Step 702: In response to a first touch operation on a first function control, control a virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first function control; Step 703: in response to the touch position of the first touch operation moving, obtain a position change status of the touch position of the first touch operation; Step 704: Adjust the virtual object from the first viewing angle to a fourth viewing angle according to a position change situation of the first touch operation; Step 705: Adjust the first virtual environment view based on the fourth viewing angle.

[0072] Here, unless otherwise specified in this application, the adjustment to the first viewing angle is not limited to a position adjustment to the first viewing angle, but is merely an orientation adjustment to the first viewing angle. Optionally, when the virtual object moves, the position of the virtual camera changes with the position of the virtual object, in which case the position of the first viewing angle of the virtual object is changed.

[0073] Below, the method for controlling a virtual object according to the present application will be introduced from the perspective of action execution.

[0074] Referring to FIG. 8, it is a flowchart of a virtual object control method provided by one embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to the terminal 10 of the virtual screen display system of FIG. 1, for example, the execution body of each step may be a client of an application program installed in the terminal 10. The method includes the following steps (801 to 803): Step 801: Display a first virtual environment screen. Step 802: In response to a first touch operation on a first functional control, a virtual object is controlled to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control. The above steps 801 and 802 are similar to steps 301 and 302 in the embodiment of FIG. 3, so please refer to the embodiment of FIG. 3 specifically and no further description will be given here. Step 803: In response to the touch position of the first touch operation moving from the first position to a sixth position within the response area of ​​the second function control, the virtual object is controlled to perform an action corresponding to the second function control.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present application, after detecting the first touch operation, the client detects a touch position of the first touch operation, and when the touch position of the first touch operation moves from the first position to a sixth position within a response area of ​​a second function control, controls the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the second function control, where the second function control is any one of the at least one function control except the first function control, and the sixth position is any position within the response area of ​​the second function control.

[0076] In other words, by controlling a virtual object so that a user performs multiple actions with a single touch operation, for example an action corresponding to a first function control and an action corresponding to a second function control, the number of touches is effectively reduced and the difficulty of control is simplified.

[0077] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, before controlling the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the second touch operation, the client needs to determine an action corresponding to the second touch operation and an action corresponding to the first function control. If the action corresponding to the second function control and the action corresponding to the first function control are not mutually exclusive actions, when it is detected that the touch position of the first touch operation has moved from the first position to the sixth position, the client controls the virtual object to perform the action corresponding to the second function control; if the action corresponding to the second function control and the action corresponding to the first function control are mutually exclusive actions, when it is detected that the touch position of the first touch operation has moved from the first position to the sixth position, the client controls the virtual object not to perform the action corresponding to the second function control.

[0078] Mutually exclusive actions are two actions that cannot be executed consecutively. For example, in a posture changing action of a virtual object, a prone posture can be changed to a standing posture, a standing posture can be changed to a jumping posture, and a prone posture cannot be changed to a jumping posture. In this case, the prone posture changing action and the jumping posture changing action are mutually exclusive actions, and when a first function control instructs a virtual object to change to a prone posture and a second function control instructs a virtual object to change to a jumping posture, if it is detected that the touch position of the first touch operation has moved from the first position to the above-mentioned sixth position, the client cannot control the virtual object to change to a jumping posture.

[0079] As described above, in the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, by moving the touch position of the first touch operation, after performing an action corresponding to a first function control, the virtual object can be controlled to subsequently perform an action corresponding to a second function control, thereby improving the control efficiency of the virtual object.

[0080] In the embodiment of FIG. 3 , after the touch position of the first touch operation is moved to control the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first function control, the first viewing angle of the virtual object is adjusted to observe the virtual environment. In this case, while observing the virtual environment, based on the actual situation, the user continuously moves the touch position of the first touch operation to the response area of ​​the second function control, so as to control the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the second function control, thereby improving the efficiency of performing the action of the virtual object and simplifying the user operation, so that the action of the virtual object is more continuous.

[0081] Referring to FIG. 9, it is a flowchart of a virtual object control method provided by another embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to the terminal 10 of the virtual screen display system of FIG. 1, for example, the execution body of each step may be a client of an application program installed in the terminal 10. The method includes the following steps (901-905): Step 901: Display a first virtual environment screen. Step 902: In response to a first touch operation on a first functional control, a virtual object is controlled to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control.

[0082] The above steps 901 and 902 are similar to steps 301 and 302 in the embodiment of FIG. 3, and specific details may be referred to the embodiment of FIG. 3, and will not be described here.

[0083] Step 903: In response to the touch position of the first touch operation moving from the first position to a second position outside the response area of ​​the first function control, a location area of ​​the second position is obtained.

[0084] In an embodiment of the present application, after detecting the above-mentioned first touch operation, the client detects the touch position of the first touch operation, and when the touch position of the first touch operation moves from the first position to a second position outside the response area of ​​the first function control, obtains the location area of ​​the second position.

[0085] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the first functional control is associated with an extended response area, and the extended response area of ​​the first functional control surrounds the response area of ​​the first functional control.

[0086] Step 904: If the second position is within the extended response area of ​​the first functional control, periodically control the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control.

[0087] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when the above-mentioned second position is within an extended response area of ​​the first functional control, when detecting that the touch position of the first touch operation moves from the first position to the second position, the client periodically controls the virtual object to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control.

[0088] Step 905: If the second position is outside the extended response area of ​​the first functional control, control the virtual object not to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control.

[0089] Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, when detecting that the touch position of the first touch operation moves from the first position to the second position, if the second position is outside the extended response area of ​​the first functional control, the client controls the virtual object not to perform an action corresponding to the first functional control.

[0090] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the above virtual environment is a virtual environment in a shooting application. Illustratively, take the first function control as an example that the shooting button is a shooting button, as shown in FIG. 10, when the touch position of the first touch operation is a position 101 (initial touch position) in the response area (display area) of the shooting button 100, the client controls the virtual object to shoot, and when the touch position of the first touch operation moves from the position 101 to a position 102 in the extended response area of ​​the shooting button 100, the client adjusts the viewing angle of the virtual object and periodically controls the virtual object to shoot, and when the touch position of the first touch operation moves from the position 102 to a position 103 outside the extended response area of ​​the shooting button 100, the client simply adjusts the viewing angle of the virtual object and controls the virtual object not to shoot.

[0091] As described above, in the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, when the touch position of the first function control is within the extended response area of ​​the first function control, the virtual object is periodically controlled to perform an action corresponding to the first function control, so that the action execution manner of the virtual object becomes more flexible and the flexibility when the user controls the virtual object to perform actions is improved.

[0092] In the embodiment of FIG. 3 , the virtual object is controlled to perform an action corresponding to the first function control by moving the touch position of the first touch operation, and then the first viewing angle of the virtual object is adjusted to observe the virtual environment, in which the user controls the virtual object to observe the virtual environment, and appropriately slides the touch position of the first touch operation into the extended response area of ​​the first function control based on the actual situation, thereby timely controlling the virtual object to respond to the virtual environment and perform the action corresponding to the first function control.
