The first terminal 120 may generally refer to one of a plurality of terminals, and the second terminal 160 may generally refer to one of a plurality of terminals, and this embodiment is only illustrated by the first terminal 120 and the second terminal 160. The device types of the first terminal 120 and the second terminal 160 are the same or different, and include: at least one of a smartphone, a tablet, an e-book reader, an MP3 player, an MP4 player, a laptop portable computer, and a desktop computer. The following embodiments are illustrated with the terminal comprising a smartphone.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the number of terminals described above may be greater or fewer. For example, the number of the terminals may be only one, or several tens or hundreds of the terminals, or more. The number of terminals and the type of the device are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart of a method for controlling virtual object pick-up for a virtual item according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The method may be applied in the first terminal 110 or the second terminal 160 in a computer system as shown in fig. 1 or in other terminals in the computer system. The method comprises the following steps:

step 201, controlling the virtual object to move in the virtual environment, wherein at least one virtual item for the virtual object to pick up exists in the virtual environment.

The terminal controls the virtual object to move in the movable space of the virtual environment. The movable space is the range in which the virtual object can move in the virtual environment, and comprises the air, the outdoor ground, the water, the indoor, the building, the tree cluster, the mountains and the land which can climb, and the like. For example, in the virtual environment, it may be set that the virtual object can move in a plain surrounded by mountains, the plain is a movable space of the virtual object, mountains which cannot climb around the plain are areas where the virtual object cannot move, and the terminal may control the virtual object to move in the movable space by walking, running, climbing, driving a vehicle, and the like. Wherein at least one virtual item for the virtual object to pick up exists in the movable space of the virtual object, and the virtual item can be at least one of a weapon, a piece of armour, ammunition, an accessory, a supply item and a backpack.

Illustratively, a control is displayed in a display interface of the virtual environment, the control may be a virtual direction rocker, a user may trigger a movement signal by clicking or pressing the virtual direction rocker, and the terminal controls the virtual object to move in the movable space after receiving the movement signal; or, the user triggers the movement signal through a physical key, for example, the user clicks a mouse, or presses a preset movement key of a keyboard, or presses an entity rocker of a handle of the terminal to trigger the movement signal, and the terminal controls the virtual object to move in the movable space after receiving the movement signal.

Step 202, when a first virtual article exists in the preset distance range of the virtual object, a first article type of the first virtual article is obtained.

The terminal detects whether a first virtual article exists in a preset distance range by taking the virtual object as a center, and acquires the article type of the first virtual article when the first virtual article exists in the preset distance range.

For example, the terminal may obtain the first item type of the first virtual item in a database of the application according to the identifier of the first virtual item. Wherein the first article type comprises at least one of a weapon type, a ammunition type, a armour type, a backpack type, an accessory type, a refill type, a projectile type, a vehicle type, and an energy source type. The virtual article assembled by the virtual object refers to a virtual article that can be directly used by the virtual object. For example, a grenade is stored in the fitting set of the throw type, and the grenade can be used by a user by clicking the grenade stored in the fitting set of the throw type.

The virtual item carried by the virtual object is a virtual item owned by the virtual object but cannot be used directly. For example, a virtual object equipped backpack has a grenade stored in its back grid, which the user needs to move to a throwing-type fitting location for storage before clicking on use of the grenade.

As shown in FIG. 3, the virtual object 300 corresponds to a plurality of assembly positions (circular icons in FIG. 3), each assembly position corresponding to an item type. The article types include weapon type, ammunition type, armour type, backpack type, accessory type, supply type, projectile type, vehicle type, and energy type, among others. The virtual object 300 is stored in the assembly station, and the virtual object 300 is assembled with the virtual object, for example, the virtual object a of the weapon type is stored in the assembly station of the weapon type 1, the virtual object B of the weapon type is stored in the assembly station of the weapon type 2, and the virtual object 300 is assembled with the virtual object a and the virtual object B. The virtual object 300 may have a knapsack-type item stored in a knapsack-type assembly location, and may be configured to store a virtual item that cannot be assembled, or may be configured to store a virtual item that is not assembled, for example, when the virtual item is not assembled, the virtual item of weapon type is stored in both weapon-type assembly locations of the virtual object 300, and if the virtual object picks up a virtual item of a third weapon type, the virtual item may be stored in the knapsack-type compartment, and the virtual object carries the virtual item. A weapon assembled or carried by the virtual object, such as a pistol or a submachine gun, a virtual article belonging to the weapon type, a corresponding cartridge of the weapon, such as a pistol cartridge or a submachine gun cartridge, a virtual article belonging to the ammunition type; armour, such as body armor or helmets, fitted or carried by virtual objects, virtual articles belonging to the armour type; a backpack that the virtual object fits or carries, a virtual item belonging to the backpack type; accessories, such as sighting telescope or bullet magazine, assembled or carried by the virtual object, virtual objects belonging to the accessory type; a replenishment item carried by the virtual object, such as a medicine or bandage, belonging to a replenishment type of virtual item; throwing weapons, such as grenades or flares, assembled or carried by virtual objects, belong to the virtual objects of the type of thrower; a vehicle carried by the virtual object, such as a bicycle or a motorcycle, a virtual item belonging to the vehicle type; the energy source, such as gasoline or battery, that the virtual object is equipped with or carries is a virtual item of the energy type.

Step 203, determining whether the first virtual article is a virtual article with a use requirement on the virtual object according to the type of the first article.

The terminal detects whether the first virtual article is a virtual article with a use requirement on the virtual object according to the type of the first article.

For example, the virtual object having the use requirement is a virtual object having a free installation position. As shown in fig. 4, the virtual object 300 has two

assembly positions

411 and 412 corresponding to weapon types, wherein the assembly position 411 stores a weapon 420, the assembly position 412 does not store a weapon, and the virtual object of the weapon type is a virtual object with an empty assembly position. When the virtual object 400 has the first virtual item 421 within the preset distance range, and the item type corresponding to the first virtual item 421 is a weapon type, the first virtual item 421 is a virtual item for which the virtual object has a use requirement.

For example, when the virtual object is equipped with a second virtual item of the first item type, the virtual item for which the use requirement of the virtual object exists is a virtual item having a better item property than the second virtual item. As shown in fig. 5, the assembly site 511 of the virtual object 300 stores body armor 520, the article attribute of which is protection level 1, and the article type is a type of armour. Within the preset distance range of the virtual object 300, there is a first virtual article 521, and the first virtual article 521 is body armor with an article attribute of protection class 2 and a first article type of protection class. Therefore, the first virtual article 521 is a virtual article having better properties than the body armor 520 article, and is a virtual article for which the use requirement of the virtual object exists.

And 204, controlling the virtual object to pick up the first virtual item when the first virtual item is a virtual item with a use requirement of the virtual object.

And when the terminal confirms that the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use demand, controlling the virtual object to pick up the first virtual article. The terminal controls the virtual object to pick up the first virtual article, and the user does not need to judge whether the first virtual article needs to be picked up, so that the virtual article with the use requirement can be automatically picked up in the virtual environment.

Optionally, when the assembly position corresponding to the first article type is empty, the terminal controls the virtual object to pick up the first virtual article, and then stores the first virtual article in the assembly position corresponding to the first article type.

Optionally, when the virtual object is equipped with a second virtual item of the first item type, the terminal controls the virtual object to pick up the first virtual item, and then stores the first virtual item in the backpack lattice.

Optionally, when the virtual object is equipped with a second virtual object of the first object type, after the terminal controls the virtual object to pick up the first virtual object, the second virtual object is removed from the assembly position and stored in the backpack grid, and the first virtual object is stored in the assembly position.

To sum up, in the embodiment of the present application, when a first virtual article is detected within a preset distance range of a virtual object, a first article type of the first virtual article is obtained, whether the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use requirement is determined according to the first article type, and when the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use requirement, the virtual object is controlled to pick up the first virtual article, so that a problem that a user cannot accurately judge whether the virtual article is adapted to the virtual object by manually picking up the virtual article in the related art is solved, and since the terminal can pick up the virtual article according to the use requirement of the virtual object, the control convenience of the virtual environment application program is improved.

Referring to fig. 6, a flowchart of a method for controlling a virtual object to pick up a virtual item according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The method may be applied in the first terminal 110 or the second terminal 160 in a computer system as shown in fig. 1 or in other terminals in the computer system. The method comprises the following steps:

step 601, controlling the virtual object to move in the virtual environment, wherein at least one virtual item for the virtual object to pick up exists in the virtual environment.

The terminal controls the virtual object to move in the movable space of the virtual environment. The movable space is the range in which the virtual object can move in the virtual environment, and comprises the air, the outdoor ground, the water, the indoor, the building, the tree cluster, the mountains and the land which can climb, and the like. At least one virtual item for picking up by a virtual object exists in the movable space, and the virtual item can be at least one of a weapon, a piece of armour, ammunition, an accessory, a supply item and a backpack.

Step 602, detecting whether a first virtual article exists within a preset distance range of the virtual object.

The terminal detects whether a first virtual article exists in a preset distance range by taking the virtual object as a center. If yes, go to step 603; if not, continuing the detection.

Step 603, detecting whether the duration that the first distance between the virtual object and the first virtual article is smaller than the preset distance range is larger than a time threshold.

When a first virtual article exists in a preset distance range, acquiring a first distance between the first virtual article and a virtual object, detecting whether the duration time of the first distance smaller than the preset distance is greater than a time threshold, and if the duration time is not greater than the time threshold, continuing detection; if the duration is greater than the time threshold, step 604 is entered.

Step 604, a first item type of the first virtual item is obtained.

For example, the terminal may obtain the first item type of the first virtual item in a database of the application according to the identifier of the first virtual item.

Step 605 detects whether the virtual object is equipped with a second virtual item of the first item type.

For example, the terminal detects whether a second virtual article of the first article type is stored in the assembly position corresponding to the first article type. When the assembly position corresponding to the first article type stores the second virtual article of the first article type, step 606 is entered; when the assembly location corresponding to the first item type does not store the second virtual item of the first item type, step 607 is entered.

Step 606, it is detected whether a first item attribute of the first virtual item is better than a second item attribute of the second virtual item.

For example, when the terminal detects that the assembly position corresponding to the first article type stores the second virtual article, the terminal obtains a second article attribute of the second virtual article in the database of the application program according to the identifier of the second virtual article, obtains a first article attribute of the first virtual article in the database of the application program according to the identifier of the first virtual article, and detects whether the first article attribute is better than the second article attribute.

The article attributes are used for characterizing the properties and performance of the virtual article, for example, the article attributes of the weapon include lethality, attack distance, hit rate, etc.; the article properties of the body armor include durability value, protection level, etc.; the item attributes of the backpack include capacity.

When the first item attribute is better than the second item attribute, go to step 607; when the first item attribute is not better than the second item attribute, step 609b is entered.

Optionally, when the first article type is a defense type, the terminal detects whether a first endurance value of the first virtual article is greater than a second endurance value of the second virtual article; when the first endurance value is greater than the second endurance value, determining that the first article attribute is better than the second article attribute.

Illustratively, the article property of the virtual article of the armour type comprises a durability value, wherein the durability value characterizes a useful life of the virtual article of the armour type. If the first article has a durability value of 5 and the second virtual article has a durability value of 3, then the first article attribute is determined to be better than the second article attribute.

Optionally, when the first article type is an armour type, the terminal detects whether a first protection level of the first virtual article is higher than a second protection level of the second virtual article; when the first protection level is higher than the second protection level, determining that the first item attribute is better than the second item attribute.

Illustratively, the item attributes of the virtual item of armour type comprise a protection rating, wherein the protection rating characterizes an ability of the virtual item of armour type to withstand injury. And if the first article is in a protection level 2 and the second virtual article is in a protection level 1, determining that the first article attribute is better than the second article attribute.

For example, if the first article attribute of the first virtual article is the protection level 2 and the endurance value is 5, and the second article attribute of the second virtual article is the protection level 1 and the endurance value is 3, the terminal determines that the first article attribute is better than the second article attribute; if the first article attribute is the protection grade 2 and the endurance value is 3, the second article attribute of the second virtual article is the protection grade 1 and the endurance value is 3, the terminal determines that the first article attribute is superior to the second article attribute; and if the first article attribute is the protection grade 2 and the endurance value is 2, and the second article attribute of the second virtual article is the protection grade 1 and the endurance value is 3, the terminal determines that the first article attribute is superior to the second article attribute according to a preset weight calculation formula.

Optionally, when the first item type is a backpack type, the terminal detects whether a first capacity of the first virtual item is greater than a second capacity of the second virtual item; when the first capacity is greater than the second capacity, the first item attribute is determined to be better than the second item attribute.

Illustratively, the item attribute of the virtual item of the backpack type includes capacity, where the capacity is the number of backpack grids corresponding to the backpack, and the more backpack grids, the more virtual items that the backpack can store, and the better the item attribute. If the capacity of the first virtual item is 16 and the capacity of the second virtual item is 12, then the first item attribute is determined to be better than the second item attribute.

Optionally, when the first article type is an accessory type, if the virtual object is equipped with a target weapon corresponding to the accessory type, the terminal detects whether a first performance value after the target weapon is equipped with the first virtual article is greater than a second performance value after the target weapon is equipped with the second virtual article; determining that the first article attribute is better than the second article attribute when the first performance value is greater than the second performance value.

Illustratively, if the accessory type is a sighting mirror type, the item attributes of the sighting mirror type virtual weapon include sighting accuracy. And if the aiming precision is 10 after the target weapon is assembled with the first virtual object and the aiming precision is 8 after the target weapon is assembled with the second virtual object, determining that the attribute of the first object is better than the attribute of the second object.

Step 607, determining that the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a usage requirement.

For example, when the terminal detects that the assembly position corresponding to the first article type has a vacancy, it is determined that the virtual object does not assemble the second virtual article of the first article type, so that it is determined that the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use requirement. For example, when the virtual object is not equipped with a virtual article of a weapon type, usually the assembly position corresponding to the weapon type has a vacant position, and when the first article type is the weapon type, the first virtual article is the virtual article for which the virtual object has a use requirement.

For example, when the terminal determines that the first item attribute is better than the second item attribute, it determines that the first virtual item is a virtual item for which the virtual object has a use requirement.

Step 608, highlighting the first virtual item in proximity to the virtual object.

When the terminal confirms that the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use demand, the first virtual article is highlighted near the virtual object, and the terminal prompts that the first virtual article is to be automatically picked up.

Optionally, the terminal may display the performance information of the first virtual article near the virtual object, increase the brightness of the first virtual article, thicken the outline of the first virtual article, and change at least one of the textures of the first virtual article to prompt that the first virtual article is to be picked up.

Step 609a, the virtual object is controlled to pick up the first virtual item.

And when the terminal highlights the first virtual object near the virtual object and prompts that the first virtual object is to be automatically picked up, controlling the virtual object to pick up the first virtual object.

Step 609b, the first virtual item is not picked.

When the terminal determines that the first article attribute is not better than the second article attribute, the terminal determines that the first virtual article is not a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use demand, and the terminal controls the virtual object not to pick up the first virtual article.

The terminal may deduce whether the first item attribute is not better than the second item attribute by the method in step 606, which is not described herein again.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, it is determined that the virtual object is not equipped with the second virtual item of the first type, and it is determined that the first virtual item is a virtual item for which a use requirement of the virtual object exists, so that accuracy of detecting whether the first virtual item needs to be picked up is improved.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, it is determined that the first item attribute of the first virtual item is better than the second item attribute of the second virtual item of the same item type assembled by the virtual object, so as to determine that the first virtual item is a virtual item for which the virtual object has a use requirement, and accuracy of detecting whether the first virtual item needs to be picked up is improved.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, before the first virtual object is picked up, the first virtual object is highlighted near the virtual object to prompt that the first virtual object is to be picked up, so that a user can more clearly obtain related information of the first virtual object, and the control convenience of the virtual environment application program is improved.

Virtual items with better item attributes are not necessarily desired by the user. For example, weapon a has a smaller attack distance and a smaller lethality than weapon B, but the user is more accustomed to controlling virtual object to use weapon B, and therefore, it is necessary to determine whether the first virtual item is a virtual item for which a usage demand exists, according to the usage habit of the user.

Referring to fig. 7, a flowchart of a method for controlling a virtual object to pick up a virtual item according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The method can be applied to the first terminal 110 or the second terminal 160 in the computer system shown in fig. 1 or other terminals in the computer system. The method may be an alternative embodiment mode of step 203 in the embodiment of fig. 2, and the method includes:

step 203a, calling a machine learning model to process the information of the first virtual article and the information of the virtual object, and obtaining an output result.

And calling the machine learning model by the terminal, inputting the information of the first virtual article and the information of the virtual object into the machine learning model, and obtaining an output result.

The information of the first virtual object at least comprises a first object type, the machine learning model is obtained by training according to the information of the virtual object, the information of the sample virtual object and the calibration result, and the calibration result comprises a result that the virtual object actually picks up the sample virtual object or a result that the sample virtual object is picked up by the artificially calibrated virtual object.

Illustratively, each time the user controls the virtual object to pick up the virtual object, the information of the virtual object and the information of the virtual object are recorded as the calibration result; or, the calibration result is set by manually acquiring the information of the virtual object picked up by the virtual object. And the terminal inputs the information of the virtual object (such as the identification of the virtual object) and the information of the sample virtual article (such as the article type, the article attribute and the like of the sample virtual article) into the machine learning model to obtain an output result, and if the output result is different from the calibration result, the strategy function and the weight of each node in the machine learning model are adjusted and trained to obtain the trained machine learning model.

Illustratively, the terminal calls a machine learning model, information of the first virtual article and information of the virtual object are input into the machine learning model, characteristics of the information of the first virtual article are extracted through each node in the machine learning model, the characteristics of the first virtual article extracted through each node are obtained, and a classifier in the machine learning model outputs a result according to the characteristics of the first virtual article extracted through each node.

And step 203b, when the output result is a preset value, determining that the first virtual article is a virtual article of which the virtual object has a use requirement.

And when the output result of the machine learning model is a preset value, determining that the first virtual article output by the machine learning model is a virtual article with the use requirement of the virtual object.

In summary, in the embodiment of the application, the machine model is called to determine that the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use requirement, so that it can be ensured that the first virtual article picked up by the virtual object is a virtual article required by a user, and the accuracy of detecting whether the first virtual article needs to be picked up is improved.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, after the user discards the virtual item assembled or carried by the virtual object, the terminal stops the automatic picking function within a predetermined time period, so that the virtual item which is just discarded is prevented from being automatically picked again, and the control convenience of the virtual environment application program is improved.

In the embodiment of the present application, each virtual article corresponds to a feature value, and each virtual object corresponds to a feature value sum, where the feature value sum is a weighted sum of the feature values of the virtual articles (assembled and/or carried) that the virtual object has. The terminal can determine whether the virtual item is a virtual item needing to be picked up according to the sum of the characteristic values.

As shown in fig. 8, the virtual object 300 corresponds to a feature value sum 800, the feature value sum 800 includes a plurality of feature values 801, each feature value 801 corresponds to a virtual article, and each feature value 801 corresponds to at least one sub-feature value, for example, as shown in the figure, a virtual article of a weapon type corresponds to a feature value 1 including an identification value 1, an article type value 1, an article attribute value 1, and a priority value 1; the characteristic value 2 corresponding to the virtual article of the accessory type comprises an identification numerical value 2, an article type numerical value 2, an article attribute numerical value 2 and a priority numerical value 2; the characteristic value n corresponding to the virtual article of the defense type comprises an identification numerical value n, an article type numerical value n, an article attribute numerical value n and a priority numerical value n.

Taking the first virtual article of the weapon type as an example, the characteristic values include an identification value a1, an article type value a2, an article attribute value a3, and a priority value a 4. If the weight value corresponding to the identifier value a1 is k1, the weight value corresponding to the item type value a2 is k2, the weight value corresponding to the item attribute value a3 is k3, and the weight value corresponding to the priority value a4 is k4, if the virtual object only has the first virtual item, the sum a of the feature values of the virtual object is: a-a 1 × k1+ a2 × k2+ a3 × k3+ a4 × k 4.

Referring to fig. 9, a flowchart of a method for controlling a virtual object to pick up a virtual item according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The method can be applied to the first terminal 110 or the second terminal 160 in the computer system shown in fig. 1 or other terminals in the computer system. The method comprises the following steps:

step 901, controlling the virtual object to move in the virtual environment, wherein at least one virtual article for the virtual object to pick up exists in the virtual environment.

Step 902, when a first virtual object exists within a preset distance range of the virtual object, determining whether the first virtual object records a first feature value sum.

The terminal detects whether a first virtual article exists in a preset distance range by taking the virtual object as a center, and detects whether the first virtual article has a first characteristic value sum when the first virtual article exists in the preset distance range.

The first sum of feature values is recorded on the first virtual item when the first virtual item was not picked up by the virtual object the last time, and the first sum of feature values is a weighted sum of feature values of the virtual items that the virtual object has when the first virtual item was not picked up the last time.

For example, when the virtual article is within the preset distance range of the virtual object, but the virtual object does not pick up the virtual article, the sum of the feature values corresponding to the virtual article is recorded on the virtual article; when a certain virtual object never exists in the preset range of the virtual object, the virtual object does not record the sum of the characteristic values of the virtual object.

Step 903, when the first virtual article does not have the first characteristic value sum, determining whether the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use requirement.

When the first virtual article does not have the first characteristic value sum, the terminal determines whether the first virtual article is a virtual article with a use requirement on the virtual object.

For example, when the first virtual item does not have the first feature value sum, it indicates that the virtual object never picks up the first virtual item, and the terminal further detects whether the first virtual item is a virtual item for which the virtual object has a use requirement. Optionally, the terminal may detect whether the first virtual item is a virtual item for which the virtual object has a usage requirement through the embodiments of fig. 2, fig. 6, and fig. 7.

And 904, when the first virtual object is a virtual object with a use requirement, controlling the virtual object to pick up the first virtual object, and updating the second characteristic value sum of the virtual object according to the first characteristic value of the first virtual object. Wherein the second sum of feature values is a weighted sum of feature values of virtual articles currently possessed by the virtual object.

When the first virtual item is a virtual item for which the virtual object has a use demand, the terminal controls the virtual object to pick up the first virtual item, and obtains a first feature value of the first virtual item, for example, a first identification value B1, a first item type value B2, a first item attribute value B3, and a first priority value B4 of the first virtual item, if the first identification value B1 is weighted q1, the first item type value B2 is weighted q2, the first item attribute value B3 is weighted q3, and the first priority value B4 is q4, and if a second feature value sum corresponding to the virtual object before the first virtual item is picked up is B1, an updated feature value sum B2 ═ 57345 + B1 ± q 5 + B2 ═ q2+ B3 × q 6342 + q 4.

In summary, in the embodiment of the present application, when a first virtual article exists in a preset distance range of a virtual object, it is first required to detect whether the first virtual article has a first feature value sum before detecting whether the first virtual article is a virtual article for which a virtual object has a use requirement, and it is determined whether the first virtual article needs to be picked up only when the first virtual article has the first feature value sum, and it is not required to detect whether the first virtual article needs to be picked up every time when a virtual article exists in the preset distance range, so that the computation load of the terminal is reduced, and the running smoothness of the virtual environment application program is improved.

Referring to fig. 11, a flowchart of a method for controlling a virtual object to pick up a virtual item according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The method can be applied to the first terminal 111 or the second terminal 160 in the computer system as shown in fig. 1 or other terminals in the computer system. The method comprises the following steps:

step 1101, controlling the virtual object to move in the virtual environment, wherein at least one virtual article for the virtual object to pick up exists in the virtual environment.

Step 1102, detecting whether a first virtual object exists within a preset distance range of the virtual object.

The terminal detects whether a first virtual article exists in a preset distance range by taking the virtual object as a center. If yes, go to step 1103; if not, continuing the detection.

Step 1103, detecting whether the first virtual article records the sum of the first characteristic values.

The terminal detects whether a first virtual article exists in a preset distance range by taking the virtual object as a center, and detects whether the first virtual article has a first characteristic value sum when the first virtual article exists in the preset distance range. When the first virtual object has the first feature value sum, go to step 1104 a; when the first virtual item does not have the first feature value sum, step 1104b is entered.

In step 1104a, it is detected whether the first sum of eigenvalues is the same as the second sum of eigenvalues of the virtual object.

When the first virtual article has the first sum of characteristic values, the terminal detects whether the first sum of characteristic values is the same as the second sum of characteristic values of the virtual object. When the first eigenvalue summation is the same as the second eigenvalue summation, go to step 1108 b; when the first eigenvalue summation is not the same as the second eigenvalue summation, step 1105 is entered.

When the first characteristic value sum is the same as the second characteristic value sum, it is indicated that the assembled and carried virtual article of the virtual object has not changed after the virtual object has not picked up the first virtual article last time, and since the first virtual article has not been picked up by the virtual object last time, the first virtual article is not a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use requirement, and therefore the first virtual article does not need to be picked up. The sum of the characteristic values is an integer variable, and the calculation amount is small because the detection of the first sum of the characteristic values and the second sum of the characteristic values is only to simply compare two integer variables.

In step 1104b, it is detected whether the first virtual item is a virtual item for which a usage requirement exists in the virtual object.

For example, when the first virtual item does not have the first feature value sum, it indicates that the virtual object never picks up the first virtual item, and the terminal further detects whether the first virtual item is a virtual item for which the virtual object has a use requirement. When the first virtual item is determined to be a virtual item for which the virtual object has a usage requirement, step 1108a is entered; when it is determined that the first virtual item is not a virtual item for which a usage requirement exists for the virtual object, step 1108b is entered.

Optionally, the terminal may detect whether the first virtual item is a virtual item for which the virtual object has a usage requirement through the embodiments of fig. 2, fig. 6, and fig. 7.

At step 1105, a first event is called back that causes a change in the first feature value sum.

When the first eigenvalue sum is not the same as the second eigenvalue sum, the terminal recalls a first event in the process of causing the first eigenvalue sum to change to the second eigenvalue sum.

Illustratively, when the sum of the feature values changes, a corresponding event is generated. For example, as shown in fig. 11, when ammunition of ammunition type 1 is consumed, the feature value 813 corresponding to ammunition type 1 changes, so that the total feature value 801 of the weapon of weapon type 1 corresponding to the feature value 813 changes, and further the feature value total sum 800 of the virtual object 300 changes, and a corresponding event is generated while the feature value changes, and the event generated by the terminal callback may acquire the feature value 813 corresponding to the ammunition of ammunition type 1 that causes the feature value total sum 800 to change.

Step 1106, obtaining a second feature value with a change in the sum of the first feature values according to the first event.

And the terminal acquires a second characteristic value which causes the change in the sum of the first characteristic values according to the first event.

After the virtual object has not picked up the first virtual article for the last time, the corresponding first feature value sum is changed into a second feature value sum, the terminal callback causes a first event that the feature value sum of the virtual object is changed from the first feature value sum to the second feature value sum, and the second feature value changed in the first feature value sum can be acquired. Wherein the second characteristic value corresponds to the second virtual item.

Step 1107, detecting whether the first virtual item meets the pickup condition according to the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value corresponding to the first virtual item.

The terminal detects whether the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value are matched. When the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value are matched, determining that the first virtual item meets the pickup condition, and entering step 1107 a; when the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value do not match, it is determined that the first virtual item does not satisfy the pickup condition, and the process proceeds to step 1107 b.

For example, the reason why the sum of the feature values of the virtual objects is changed is that a new virtual item is picked up, an already owned virtual item is consumed, or an already owned virtual item is discarded. When the virtual object has not picked up the first virtual item last time, it may be because the virtual object is equipped with or carries the same virtual item as the first virtual item, or it may be that the user is equipped with or carries a third virtual item of the same type as the first virtual item and higher priority than the first virtual item. Therefore, the terminal needs to detect whether the first virtual item satisfies the pickup condition according to the second characteristic value and the first characteristic value that change in the sum of the first characteristic values. If the virtual object is a change of the sum of the first characteristic values caused by consumption or discarding of a virtual article which is the same as the first virtual article, the first virtual article meets the pickup condition; if the virtual object is due to the fact that a new virtual article is picked up, if the article type of the new virtual article is different from that of the first virtual article, the first virtual article does not meet the picking condition; if the virtual object is a second virtual object which is the same as the first virtual object in item type and has a lower priority level than the first virtual object because the third virtual object is discarded, the first virtual object meets the pickup condition.

Optionally, the first characteristic value includes at least one of a first identification value, a first item type value, a first quantity, a first item attribute value, and a first priority value of the first virtual item; the second characteristic value comprises at least one of a second identification value, a second item type value, a second quantity, a second item attribute value and a second priority value of the second virtual item, and the terminal can determine that the first virtual item meets the picking condition by at least one of the following methods:

and I, when the first identification value and the second identification value are the same and the first quantity and the second quantity are different, determining that the first virtual article meets the pickup condition.

For example, when the first identification value and the second identification value are the same, the second virtual item and the first virtual item are the same virtual item, and the first quantity and the second quantity are different, the second virtual item is consumed, and therefore the first virtual item which is the same as the second virtual item needs to be supplemented, so as to determine that the first virtual item meets the pickup condition.

And II, when the first type value and the second type value are the same, and the first article attribute value is higher than the second article attribute value, determining that the first virtual article meets the picking condition.

Illustratively, the first virtual item is a shield with a protection level of 2, the second virtual item is a shield with a protection level of 1, the third virtual item is a shield with a protection level of 3, and when the virtual object does not pick up the first virtual item last time, the virtual object carries the third virtual item, so the first virtual item does not need to be picked up, but in the following battle, the third virtual item is destroyed, the third virtual item is just discarded, the second virtual item with a low protection level is picked up, and therefore the first virtual item needs to be picked up when the first virtual item passes through again.

And III, when the first type value and the second type value are the same, and the first priority value is higher than the second priority value, determining that the first virtual article meets the picking condition.

For example, when the first type value and the second type value are the same and the first priority value is higher than the second priority value, it may be that the user has picked up the same virtual article after the first virtual article was not picked up last time and used as a familiar virtual article, and the priority value is increased, so that it is determined that the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value match. For example, if the first virtual item is a pistol with a lethality of 2, the second virtual item is a pistol with a lethality of 3, and the virtual object does not pick up the first virtual item last time, because the virtual object carries the second virtual item with a higher attribute value, the first virtual item is not picked up, but in the later time, the user is more used to the first virtual item, and therefore the first virtual item is actively picked up, so that the priority of the first virtual item is increased, but because the first virtual item is damaged, the user has to pick up the second virtual item, and then needs to pick up the first virtual item when passing through the first virtual item which is not picked up again.

Optionally, the first characteristic value includes at least one of a first identification value, a first item type value, a first item attribute value, and a first priority value of the first virtual item; the second characteristic value comprises at least one of a second identification value, a second item type value, a second item attribute value and a second priority value of the second virtual item, and the terminal can determine that the first virtual item does not meet the picking condition by at least one of the following methods:

and I, when the first type value and the second type value are different, determining that the first virtual article does not meet the picking condition.

Illustratively, when the first type value and the second type value are different, it is stated that the second virtual object and the first virtual object causing the change of the sum of the first characteristic values are unrelated, for example, the virtual object consumes ammunition, while the first virtual object is body armor, and it is determined that the first characteristic values and the second characteristic values are not matched because the first virtual object was not picked up by the last virtual object and the change of the sum of the first characteristic values is unrelated to the first virtual object.

And II, when the first type value and the second type value are the same, and the first article attribute value is lower than the second article attribute value, determining that the first virtual article does not meet the picking condition.

Illustratively, when the first type value and the second type value are the same and the first item attribute value is lower than the second item attribute value, it is indicated that the user tends to use a virtual item having a better attribute than the first virtual item, and thus it is determined that the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value do not match.

And III, when the first type value and the second type value are the same, and the first priority value is lower than the second priority value, determining that the first virtual article does not meet the picking condition.

Illustratively, when the first type value and the second type value are the same and the first priority value is lower than the second priority value, it is indicated that the user tends to use the second virtual article, and thus it is determined that the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value do not match.

Step 1108a, the virtual object is controlled to pick up the first virtual item, and the second feature value summation is updated according to the first feature value.

And the terminal controls the virtual object to pick up the first virtual article and updates the second characteristic value sum according to the first characteristic value.

Step 1108b, the first virtual item is not picked.

The terminal controls the virtual object not to pick up the first virtual item. And if the first virtual article does not have the first characteristic value sum, the terminal records a second characteristic value sum on the first virtual article.

In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 12, the second characteristic value causing the change of the total characteristic value is that the corresponding virtual article is a weapon 1, which includes characteristic values of a fitting bit 1, a weapon type 1, a part identifier 7, a bullet number 8, and the like, and when the quantity characteristic value corresponding to the fitting bit 1 is 0, if the part identifier is 7 and the fitting bit is 1 in the second characteristic values of the non-picked virtual articles, the virtual article is picked up.

To sum up, in the embodiment of the present application, when a first virtual article exists in a preset distance range of a virtual object, it is first required to detect whether the first virtual article has a first feature value sum before detecting whether the first virtual article is a virtual article for which the virtual object has a use requirement, and it is determined whether the first virtual article needs to be picked up only when the first virtual article has the first feature value sum.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, when it is determined that the first feature value sum of the first virtual article is the same as the second feature value sum of the virtual object, the first virtual article is not picked up, and after it is determined that the first feature value sum is the same as the second feature value sum of the virtual object, it is not necessary to further detect whether the first virtual article needs to be picked up, so that the computation amount of the terminal is reduced, and the operation fluency of the virtual environment application program is improved.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the application, when it is determined that the first feature value sum of the first virtual article is different from the second feature value sum of the virtual object, by obtaining the second feature value that changes in the first feature value sum, it is detected whether the second feature value matches the first feature value corresponding to the first virtual article to determine whether the first virtual article is to be picked up, so as to improve accuracy of detecting whether the first virtual article needs to be picked up.
