In some embodiments, the virtual object controlled by the first terminal 120 and the virtual object controlled by the second terminal 140 are in hostile relationship, for example, the virtual object controlled by the first terminal 120 and the virtual object controlled by the second terminal 140 belong to different teams and organizations, and interaction in the fight mode can be performed on land in a shooting mode.

Alternatively, the applications installed on the first terminal 120 and the second terminal 140 are the same, or the applications installed on the two terminals are the same type of application of different operating system platforms. Wherein the first terminal 120 refers broadly to one of the plurality of terminals and the second terminal 140 refers broadly to one of the plurality of terminals, the present embodiment is exemplified by only the first terminal 120 and the second terminal 140.

In order to more clearly describe the technical solution provided in the embodiments of the present application, first, a field of view picture of a controlled virtual object in the present application is described, referring to fig. 2, in order to make a shooting game more realistic, a game designer refers to a manner in which a human observes the real world to design a manner in which the controlled virtual object observes a virtual scene. The controlled virtual object 201 can observe the virtual scene in the region 202 in the virtual scene, and the screen obtained by observing the region 202 at the angle of the controlled virtual object 201 is the field of view screen of the controlled virtual object. The user can adjust the position at which the controlled virtual object 201 observes the virtual scene by adjusting the orientation of the controlled virtual object 201. The manner in which the controlled virtual object 201 observes the virtual scene is the manner in which the user observes the virtual scene. The terminal can project the virtual scene in the region 202 onto the screen so that the user can see the scene seen in the virtual scene by the controlled virtual object 201 through the screen.

Taking a terminal as an intelligent mobile phone as an example, a control for controlling the controlled virtual object to execute different actions is also displayed on the visual field picture of the controlled virtual object.

Shooting control 304 is used to control the firing of virtual ammunition by an interactive prop held by a controlled virtual object. Prop switching control 305 is used to switch a target virtual prop, and in the embodiment of the present application, a user can control a controlled virtual object to throw the target virtual prop through shooting control 304. 306 is a minimap, through which the user can view the positions of teammates and enemies in the virtual scene.

It should be noted that, in the following description of the technical solution provided in the present application, a terminal is taken as an execution body for example.

Fig. 4 is a flowchart of a virtual object control method provided in an embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 4, the method includes:

401. the terminal displays a visual field picture of the controlled virtual object, and a virtual rocker is displayed at a first position of the visual field picture and is used for controlling the moving direction of the controlled virtual object in the virtual scene.

The description of the view field picture of the controlled virtual object is referred to the description of fig. 3, and is not repeated here. The first position may also be referred to as an initial display position of the virtual rocker, that is, a display position of the virtual rocker when the user does not drag the virtual rocker, where the non-drag operation on the virtual rocker includes two layers of meaning, where the first layer of meaning means that the user does not perform any operation on the virtual rocker, and the second layer of meaning means that the drag operation on the virtual rocker by the user is ended. During the game, the user can move the controlled virtual object in different directions in the virtual scene through the virtual rocker.

402. And in response to detecting that the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker meets the target condition, the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at a second position corresponding to the first dragging operation.

The second position corresponding to the first drag operation is the position where the virtual rocker is located under the first drag operation.

403. And the terminal controls the controlled virtual object to continuously move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the position difference between the second position and the first position.

In some embodiments, the terminal can employ a vector pointing from the first position to the second position to represent a direction indicated by a difference in position between the second position and the first position, and can subsequently adjust a direction of movement of the controlled virtual object in the virtual scene based on the vector.

Through the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, in the game process, when the user drags the virtual rocker in a mode meeting the target condition, the terminal can fix the virtual rocker at the second position. The terminal can control the controlled virtual object to continuously move in the virtual scene based on the fixed virtual rocker, the virtual rocker is not required to be manually dragged by a user, the burden of the user is reduced, the user can complete more tasks and operations, and the game operation experience of the user is improved. In addition, the user can determine the locking position of the virtual rocker by himself, so that the moving direction of the controlled virtual object is controlled, the moving direction of the controlled virtual object can be any direction, the flexibility of direction locking is improved, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is improved as a whole.

The steps 401 to 403 are simple descriptions of the virtual object control method provided in the embodiments of the present application, and the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to some examples.

Fig. 5 is a flowchart of a virtual object control method provided in an embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 5, the method includes:

501. the terminal displays a visual field picture of the controlled virtual object, and a virtual rocker is displayed at a first position of the visual field picture and is used for controlling the moving direction of the controlled virtual object in the virtual scene.

The controlled virtual object is a virtual object controlled by the terminal, and a user can control the controlled virtual object by operating the terminal. In some embodiments, the virtual rocker is circular.

In one possible implementation, the terminal can display a visual field screen 301 of the controlled virtual object as shown in fig. 3, where a virtual rocker 302 is displayed on a first position of the visual field screen 301. After the user touches the virtual rocker 302 displayed on the terminal with a finger, dragging the finger on the screen can change the position of the virtual rocker 302. The position of the virtual rocker 302 corresponds to the movement direction of the controlled virtual object, and the user can change the movement direction of the controlled virtual object by changing the position of the virtual rocker 302. For the terminal, in response to detecting the drag operation on the virtual rocker 302, the terminal determines the position of the drag operation in real time, and displays the virtual rocker 302 at the position corresponding to the drag operation.

In a possible implementation manner, if the terminal is a terminal, the terminal can display the virtual rocker at the first position corresponding to the touch operation in response to detecting the touch operation as in the field view screen 301 of the controlled virtual object shown in fig. 3.

In the embodiment, the terminal does not fixedly display the virtual rocker on the visual field picture of the controlled virtual object, but displays the virtual rocker on the position where the user touches the screen, so that the user can determine the display position of the virtual rocker by himself, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is high.

In one possible implementation manner, a rocker limit graph is further displayed on the visual field picture of the controlled virtual object, the virtual rocker is displayed on the rocker limit graph, and the rocker limit graph is used for limiting the movement range of the virtual rocker.

The shape of the rocker limiting graph can be circular, elliptical or square, and the embodiment of the application is not limited to the shape.

Under the implementation mode, a user can know the allowed movement range of the virtual rocker by observing the rocker limiting graph, the virtual rocker is limited in a certain range, redundant operation of the user when dragging the virtual rocker can be reduced, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is improved.

For example, referring to fig. 6, a field of view screen 601 of the controlled virtual object is displayed in fig. 6, a joystick limit graphic 602 is displayed on the field of view screen 601, and a virtual joystick 603 is displayed on the joystick limit graphic 602. The range of the joystick limit graph 602, that is, the range of the virtual joystick 603 that allows movement, the virtual joystick 603 cannot drag out of the range of the joystick limit graph 602 no matter the user moves a finger on the screen during the process of dragging the virtual joystick 603 by the user. In some embodiments, after the user drags the virtual rocker 603 to the edge of the rocker limit graphic 602, the finger continues to move in the same direction, in which case the virtual rocker 603 would still be displayed at that edge of the rocker limit graphic. In some embodiments, the first position is the geometric center of the rocker limit graphic 602, that is, when the user does not drag the virtual rocker 603, the terminal displays the virtual rocker 603 on the geometric center of the rocker limit graphic 602, and if the virtual rocker 603 and the rocker limit graphic 602 are both circular, the terminal displays the virtual rocker 603 and the rocker limit graphic 602 concentrically.

502. And in response to detecting that the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker meets the target condition, the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at a second position corresponding to the first dragging operation.

Wherein the first drag operation meets the target condition means any one of the following: the holding time of the first drag operation at the second position is longer than the target duration, or the force of the first drag operation at the second position is longer than the target force. After the virtual rocker is fixed by the terminal, any operation except the operation on the virtual rocker does not interrupt the fixing of the virtual rocker by the terminal, and if the user originally controls the virtual rocker through the left hand, after the virtual rocker is fixed by the terminal, the left hand of the user can execute other game operations, such as checking a virtual knapsack of a controlled virtual object or enlarging a map and the like.

In one possible implementation, in response to detecting that the hold time of the first drag operation of the virtual rocker in the second position is greater than the target duration, the terminal fixes the virtual rocker in the second position corresponding to the first drag operation. The target duration is set by a technician according to actual situations, for example, set to 0.5s, 1s, or 1.5s, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In this embodiment, when the first drag operation is kept at the second position for a longer time, the user keeps the virtual rocker at the second position through the first drag operation for a longer time, and the virtual rocker kept at the second position indicates that the user wants to control the controlled virtual object to move towards one direction, at this time, the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position, and the user does not need to continuously drag the virtual rocker, so that the controlled virtual object moves towards one direction in the virtual scene, thereby reducing the burden of the user and improving the efficiency of man-machine interaction.

The above embodiments are described below by way of two examples.

In example 1, after the virtual joystick is dragged from the first position, the terminal starts to count when it is detected that the first dragging operation on the virtual joystick is stopped at the second position, that is, when the user's finger is stopped at the second position. If the target duration is 1.5s, the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position in response to detecting that the duration of the first drag operation staying at the second position is greater than 1.5 s. After the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position, the user finishes the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker, namely, when the user lifts the finger, the virtual rocker is still displayed at the second position, and the controlled virtual object can still move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the virtual rocker.

Example 2 after the virtual rocker is dragged away from the first position, the terminal starts timing when it detects that the virtual rocker stays in the second position. And if the target duration is 2s, the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position in response to detecting that the stay time of the virtual rocker at the second position is longer than 2 s. After the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position, the user finishes the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker, namely, when the user lifts the finger, the virtual rocker is still displayed at the second position, and the controlled virtual object can still move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the virtual rocker.

In one possible implementation, in response to detecting that the force of the first drag operation on the virtual rocker at the second position is greater than the target force, the terminal secures the virtual rocker at the second position corresponding to the first drag operation. The target force is set by a technician according to actual situations, for example, set to 0.5N, 1N, or 1.5N, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In this embodiment, the user can control the terminal to fix the virtual rocker at the second position in a manner of pressing the second position, and since the second position is a position determined by the user, the user can also control the terminal to fix the virtual rocker at the corresponding position according to the moving direction of the controlled virtual object in the virtual scene, so that the flexibility of operation is high and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is also high.

The real-time mode will be described by way of two examples.

Example 1, a pressure sensor is provided below a screen of a terminal, and the terminal can detect pressing force to the screen through the pressure sensor. Taking the target strength of 0.5N as an example, in the process of dragging the virtual rocker through the first dragging operation, the terminal can fix the virtual rocker at the second position in response to the fact that the pressing strength of the screen at the second position is detected to be greater than 0.5N through the pressure sensor. After the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position, the user finishes the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker, namely, when the user lifts the finger, the virtual rocker is still displayed at the second position, and the controlled virtual object can still move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the virtual rocker.

In example 2, if the screen of the terminal is a capacitive screen, the capacitive screen includes an upper electrode and a lower electrode, and a capacitance is formed between the upper electrode and the lower electrode. When the screen is pressed down, the distance between the upper electrode and the lower electrode is reduced, and according to a calculation formula of capacitance c=εS/4pi kd, wherein C is capacitance, ε is dielectric constant, S is the facing area of the upper electrode and the lower electrode, k is electrostatic force constant, and d is the vertical distance between the upper electrode and the lower electrode. In the case where the other parameters are unchanged, the vertical distance d between the upper electrode and the lower electrode decreases when the screen is pressed down, that is, the screen is pressed down. The terminal can determine the capacitance C after the change between the upper electrode and the lower electrode according to the reduced d _c . The terminal is based on the capacitance before the change and the capacitance C after the change _c And the physical coefficient of the screen can reversely push the force of pressing the screen, wherein the physical coefficient of the screen comprises parameters such as hardness and elastic modulus of the screen. Taking a target force of 1.5N as an example, when the first dragging operation is passedIn the dragging process of the virtual rocker, the terminal can fix the virtual rocker at the second position in response to the fact that the pressing force of the screen at the second position is larger than 0.5N. After the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position, the user finishes the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker, namely, when the user lifts the finger, the virtual rocker is still displayed at the second position, and the controlled virtual object can still move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the virtual rocker.

Example 3, taking a touch operation of a user on a screen of a terminal by a finger as an example, when the finger lightly presses the screen, the area of the finger contacting the screen is a, and when the finger heavily presses the screen, the area of the finger contacting the screen is B. Since the deformation degree of the finger is larger than that of the screen, the area B of the finger contacting the screen when the finger presses the screen again is larger than the area A of the finger contacting the screen when the finger presses the screen lightly, and the terminal can determine whether the finger presses the screen again or presses the screen lightly through the area of the finger contacting the screen, and both A and B are positive numbers. For the terminal, a plurality of touch sensors are arranged below the screen, the touch sensors can be used for detecting touch operation of fingers on the screen, and the terminal can represent the contact area of the fingers and the screen by adopting the number of the touch sensors for detecting the touch operation. For example, when the finger presses the screen lightly, since the contact area between the finger and the screen is small, the M touch sensors under the screen can detect a touch operation; when the finger presses the screen again, because the contact area between the finger and the screen is large, the N touch sensors below the screen can detect touch operation, wherein M and N are positive integers, and N is more than M. Taking the example that the number of touch sensors detecting the touch operation is smaller than or equal to K as a light press and the number of touch sensors detecting the touch operation is larger than K as a heavy press, in the process of dragging the virtual rocker through the first dragging operation, the terminal can fix the virtual rocker at the second position when the number of touch sensors responding to the touch operation is larger than K. After the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position, the user finishes the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker, namely, when the user lifts the finger, the virtual rocker is still displayed at the second position, and the controlled virtual object can still move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the virtual rocker.

In a possible implementation manner, in response to detecting that the holding time of the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker at the second position is longer than the target time length, and the force of the first dragging operation at the second position is longer than the target force, the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position corresponding to the first dragging operation, wherein the target time length and the target force are set by a technician according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the application is not limited.

Under this kind of embodiment, when first drag operation is in the second position and keeps time longer, and the dynamics of first drag operation in the second position is greater than the target dynamics, the terminal just can fix virtual rocker in the second position to reduce the virtual rocker that the user maloperation leads to and be fixed probability, improve man-machine interaction's efficiency.

For example, in response to detecting that the first drag operation remains in the second position during the drag of the virtual rocker by the first drag operation, the terminal starts timing. If the target duration is 1.5s and the target force is 1.5N, responding to detection that the force of the first dragging operation at the second position is greater than 1.5N and the holding time of the first dragging operation at the second position is greater than 1.5s, and fixing the virtual rocker at the second position by the terminal. After the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position, the user finishes the first dragging operation of the virtual rocker, namely, when the user lifts the finger, the virtual rocker is still displayed at the second position, and the controlled virtual object can still move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the virtual rocker.

Optionally, on the basis of the foregoing possible embodiments, if the view field picture of the controlled virtual object displays a rocker limit graph, the second position is one edge of the rocker limit graph.

Under this kind of embodiment, the terminal can only fix the virtual rocker that is dragged to the spacing figure edge of rocker, and the user can be in the interior free control virtual rocker of the spacing figure of rocker, avoids virtual rocker to be locked because of the maloperation, improves man-machine interaction's efficiency.

For example, referring to fig. 6, if the rocker limit graph 602 and the virtual rocker 603 are both circular, then the positioning of the virtual rocker 603 at the edge of the rocker limit graph 602 means that the virtual rocker 603 inscribes the rocker limit graph 602, or that the center of the virtual rocker 603 is positioned on the edge of the rocker limit graph 602, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Optionally, after the virtual rocker is fixed at the second position corresponding to the first drag operation, the terminal is further capable of performing at least one of the following steps:

and step 1, the terminal displays a locking graph on the virtual rocker, wherein the locking graph is used for indicating that the virtual rocker is fixed.

In the embodiment, after the virtual rocker is fixed, the terminal can display the locking graph on the virtual rocker, and a user can know that the virtual rocker is fixed by observing the locking graph, so that the efficiency of man-machine interaction is high.

For example, referring to fig. 7, after the terminal secures the virtual rocker 701 in the second position, a lock graphic 702 can be displayed on the virtual rocker 701, the lock graphic 702 being a lock in some embodiments.

And 2, displaying locking prompt information on the visual field picture by the terminal, wherein the locking prompt information is used for prompting that the virtual rocker is fixed.

In the embodiment, after the virtual rocker is fixed, the terminal can display the locking prompt information on the visual field picture of the controlled virtual object, and a user can know that the virtual rocker is fixed through the locking prompt information, so that the efficiency of man-machine interaction is high.

For example, referring to fig. 8, after the terminal secures the virtual rocker 801 in the second position, a lock hint 803 can be displayed on the view 802. In some embodiments, the lock hint 803 is the word "lock traveling.

And 3, the terminal sends out a first type of vibration prompt, wherein the first type of vibration prompt is used for reminding the virtual rocker to be fixed.

Under this kind of embodiment, the terminal can send out first type vibrations suggestion after fixed virtual rocker, and the user just can learn virtual rocker and be fixed through first type vibrations suggestion, and man-machine interaction's efficiency is higher.

For example, after the virtual rocker is fixed at the second position corresponding to the first drag operation, the terminal can send a vibration control signal to the vibration controller. In response to receiving the vibration control signal, the vibration controller vibrates. In some embodiments, the vibration controller is a linear motor.

And 4, the terminal plays a first type of sound prompt, wherein the first type of sound prompt is used for reminding the virtual rocker to be fixed.

In this embodiment, the terminal can send out the first type of voice prompt after fixing the virtual rocker, and the user can know that the virtual rocker is fixed by listening to the first type of voice prompt, so that the efficiency of man-machine interaction is higher.

For example, after the virtual joystick is fixed at the second position corresponding to the first drag operation, the terminal can send a sound control signal to the sound controller. In response to receiving the sound control signal, the sound controller plays the audio. In some embodiments, the sound controller is a speaker and the first type of sound cue is "virtual rocker locked".

It should be noted that, the terminal can perform any one, any two, any three or all the four steps, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

503. And the terminal controls the controlled virtual object to continuously move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the position difference between the second position and the first position.

In one possible implementation, the terminal determines a target moving direction of the controlled virtual object in the virtual scene according to a direction indicated by a position difference between the second position and the first position. And the terminal controls the controlled virtual object to continuously move in the virtual scene along the target moving direction.

In this embodiment, the terminal can determine the target moving direction of the controlled virtual object in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the position difference between the second position and the first position of the virtual rocker, and after determining the target moving direction, the terminal can control the controlled virtual object to move continuously without user operation, thereby reducing the operation burden of the user. Because the second position is determined by the user, the user can determine the target moving direction by the virtual rocker, and the target moving direction can cover all moving directions, so that the efficiency of man-machine interaction is higher.

For example, the terminal may be capable of acquiring the second screen coordinate of the virtual rocker at the second position and the first screen coordinate of the virtual rocker at the first position, and in some embodiments, the origin of the screen coordinate system in which the first screen coordinate and the second screen coordinate are located is the first screen coordinate, the x-axis is parallel to the screen horizontal line, and the y-axis is perpendicular to the screen horizontal line. In this case, the terminal acquires the second screen coordinates (-1, 1), the first screen coordinates (0, 0), and the terminal can acquire the first vector (-1, 1) directed from the first screen coordinates to the second screen coordinates. The terminal determines that the first vector (-1, 1) is at-45 deg. from the positive direction of the y-axis, where "-" indicates that the first vector is to the left of the y-axis. In some embodiments, the y-axis positive direction corresponds to the facing direction of the controlled virtual object. Under the condition that the included angle between the first vector and the positive direction of the y axis is-45 degrees, the terminal can control the controlled virtual object to continuously move in the virtual scene along the direction facing the left side by 45 degrees, and in the continuous movement process of the controlled virtual object, the user does not need to operate, namely, even if the user lifts the finger from the screen, the controlled virtual object still continuously moves in the virtual scene according to the target movement direction, and other game operations can be executed by the lifted finger of the user. That is, after the virtual rocker is fixed at the second position, even if the user does not perform any operation, the terminal can control the controlled virtual object to continuously move in the virtual scene according to the second position where the virtual rocker is located, so that the operation burden of the user is reduced, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is improved.

Optionally, the terminal can also perform the following

steps

504 and 505 after step 503.

504. And in response to detecting the second dragging operation of the virtual rocker, the terminal releases the fixation of the virtual rocker.

In one possible implementation, in response to detecting the second drag operation on the virtual rocker, the terminal releases the fixation of the virtual rocker, and the user can drag the virtual rocker by himself to change the moving direction of the controlled virtual object in the virtual scene.

Optionally, after the terminal releases the fixation of the virtual rocker, the terminal is further capable of performing at least one of the following steps:

and 1, canceling the locking graph displayed on the virtual rocker by the terminal.

In the embodiment, after the fixation of the virtual rocker is released, the terminal cancels the locking graph displayed on the virtual rocker, so that confusion of a user caused by the locking graph is avoided, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is higher.

For example, referring to fig. 7, after the terminal cancels the fixation of the virtual rocker 701, the display of the lock graphic 702 on the virtual rocker 701 can be canceled.

And 2, the terminal cancels the locking prompt information displayed on the visual field picture.

In the embodiment, after the fixation of the virtual rocker is released, the terminal can cancel the display of the locking prompt information on the visual field picture of the controlled virtual object, so that confusion of the locking prompt information to a user is avoided, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is higher.

For example, referring to fig. 8, after the terminal cancels the fixation of the virtual stick 801, the lock hint information 803 displayed on the view screen 802 can be cancelled.

And 3, the terminal sends out a second type of vibration prompt, wherein the second type of vibration prompt is used for reminding the fixing of the virtual rocker to be released.

In the embodiment, the terminal can send out the second type vibration prompt after fixing the virtual rocker, and the user can know that the fixing of the virtual rocker is released through the second type vibration prompt, so that the efficiency of man-machine interaction is higher.

For example, after releasing the fixation of the virtual rocker, the terminal can send a vibration control signal to the vibration controller. In response to receiving the vibration control signal, the vibration controller vibrates.

And 4, the terminal plays a second type of sound prompt, wherein the second type of sound prompt is used for reminding the fixing of the virtual rocker to be released.

In the embodiment, the terminal can send out the second type of sound prompt after the virtual rocker is fixed, and the user can know that the virtual rocker is fixed by listening to the second type of sound prompt, so that the efficiency of man-machine interaction is higher.

For example, after the virtual joystick is fixed at the second position corresponding to the first drag operation, the terminal can send a sound control signal to the sound controller. In response to receiving the sound control signal, the sound controller plays the audio. In some embodiments, the second type of audible cue is "the virtual rocker is unlocked".

505. And the terminal controls the controlled virtual object to move in the virtual scene based on the moving direction indicated by the second dragging operation.

For example, referring to fig. 9, a user can control a game character 902, that is, a moving direction of a controlled virtual object by dragging a virtual stick 901.

For example, the terminal can obtain the coordinates of the virtual rocker in the screen coordinate system under the action of the second drag operation, and the description of the screen coordinate system is referred to the description of step 503, which is not repeated herein. For example, at a first moment, the second drag operation drags the virtual rocker to a third position indicated by the screen coordinates (1, 1), and then the terminal can determine a second vector (1, 1) pointing from the first position (0, 0) of the virtual rocker to the third position (1, 1), and the terminal obtains an included angle +45° between the second vector (1, 1) and the positive direction of the y-axis of the screen coordinate system. The terminal can control the controlled virtual object to move towards the 45-degree direction facing the right side in the virtual scene. If at the second moment, the second dragging operation drags the virtual rocker to a fourth position indicated by the screen coordinate (0, 1), the terminal can determine a third vector (0, 1) pointing from the first position (0, 0) of the virtual rocker to the fourth position (0, 1), and the terminal obtains an included angle +90° between the third vector (0, 1) and the positive direction of the y-axis of the screen coordinate system. The terminal can control the controlled virtual object to move towards the direction of 90 degrees facing the right side in the virtual scene. If the second moment is a moment after the first moment, then the face of the controlled virtual object is rotated 45+90=135° towards the right side at the second moment compared to the face of the controlled virtual object at the first moment. That is, when the terminal adjusts the moving direction of the controlled virtual object each time, the adjusted reference direction is the current facing direction of the controlled virtual object, so that the direction change of the controlled virtual object can be guaranteed to correspond to the position change of the virtual rocker when the user drags the virtual rocker. For example, in the game process, a user drags the virtual rocker to the left and the controlled virtual object moves towards the left and the front; correspondingly, when the user drags the virtual rocker to the upper right, the controlled virtual object moves towards the front right, and in this way, the user operation corresponds to the adjustment of the moving direction of the controlled virtual object one by one, so that the user can control the controlled virtual object more smoothly, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is improved.

Alternatively, the terminal can perform any of the steps described below in addition to the step 504 described above after the step 503.

And step A, responding to the attack of the controlled virtual object by other virtual objects in the virtual scene, and highlighting the outline of the virtual rocker on the visual field picture by the terminal so as to remind the release of the fixation of the virtual rocker.

Under the implementation mode, when the controlled virtual object is attacked by other virtual objects, the terminal can highlight the outline of the virtual rocker, so that a user can be reminded to release the fixation of the virtual rocker, the controlled virtual object is controlled to avoid through manual operation, the probability of the controlled virtual object being knocked out in the moving process is reduced, the game experience of the user is improved, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is improved.

For example, in response to detecting that the controlled virtual object is hit by a virtual prop emitted by another virtual object, the terminal highlights the outline of the virtual rocker with red, and of course, in other possible embodiments, the terminal can also highlight the outline of the virtual rocker with another color, which is not limited in this embodiment.

And B, responding to the attack of the controlled virtual object by other virtual objects in the virtual scene, and controlling the controlled virtual object to move towards the virtual obstacle closest to the controlled virtual object by the terminal.

In the embodiment, when the controlled virtual object is attacked by other virtual objects, the terminal can control the controlled virtual object to avoid in the virtual scene, so that the probability of the controlled virtual object being knocked and killed in the moving process can be reduced, the game experience of a user is improved, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is improved.

For example, in response to detecting that the controlled virtual object is hit by a virtual prop emitted by another virtual object, the terminal determines a virtual obstacle closest to the controlled virtual object. The terminal determines a path of the controlled virtual object moving from the current position to the virtual obstacle, and controls the controlled object to move along the path.

And C, in response to detecting that the virtual obstacle exists in the moving direction of the controlled virtual object, the terminal displays obstacle prompt information on the visual field picture, wherein the obstacle prompt information is used for prompting the type of the virtual obstacle and the distance between the virtual obstacle and the controlled virtual object.

In this embodiment, when a virtual obstacle exists in the moving direction of the controlled virtual object, the terminal can display the obstacle prompt information of the virtual obstacle on the view field picture, the user can know in advance according to the obstacle prompt information, and the type of the virtual obstacle in front of the controlled virtual object and the distance between the controlled virtual object and the virtual obstacle, so that the user can react in advance to control the controlled virtual object to avoid, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is higher.

For example, the terminal can emit a detection ray with the controlled virtual object as an origin, and in response to the detection ray contacting any virtual obstacle, the terminal obtains obstacle prompt information of the virtual obstacle, and displays the obstacle prompt information on the view field picture.

And D, in response to detecting that the virtual obstacle exists in front of the controlled virtual object, the terminal controls the controlled virtual object to execute auxiliary actions corresponding to the virtual obstacle, wherein the auxiliary actions are used for assisting the controlled virtual object to pass through the virtual obstacle.

In the embodiment, when the virtual obstacle in front of the controlled virtual object is detected, the terminal can control the controlled virtual object to execute the auxiliary action corresponding to the virtual obstacle so as to assist the controlled virtual object to pass through the virtual obstacle, a user does not need to manually control the controlled virtual object to pass through the virtual obstacle, and the efficiency of man-machine interaction is high.

For example, the terminal can emit a detection ray with the controlled virtual object as an origin, and in response to the detection ray contacting any virtual obstacle, obtain an auxiliary action corresponding to the virtual obstacle, and the terminal controls the controlled virtual object to execute the auxiliary action to pass through the virtual obstacle. Taking a virtual obstacle as an example of a virtual stone, the auxiliary action corresponding to the virtual stone is taken as jumping, and the terminal can control the controlled virtual object to jump in front of the virtual stone.

And E, the virtual rocker is also used for controlling the moving direction of the virtual carrier in the virtual scene, and the terminal can also control the virtual carrier driven by the controlled virtual object to move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the position difference between the second position and the first position after fixing the virtual rocker at the second position corresponding to the first dragging operation.

In the embodiment, the terminal not only can lock the moving direction of the controlled virtual object in the virtual scene, but also can lock the moving direction of the virtual carrier when the controlled virtual object drives the virtual carrier, thereby reducing the operation burden of a user and improving the efficiency of man-machine interaction.

When the strength of the first dragging operation is detected to be greater than the target strength, the terminal fixes the virtual rocker at the second position, and the terminal controls the controlled virtual object to move in the virtual scene according to the direction indicated by the position difference between the second position and the first position. And when the second dragging operation of the virtual rocker is detected, the terminal releases the fixation of the virtual rocker, and the controlled virtual object is controlled to move according to the direction indicated by the second dragging operation.
