Illustratively, when the virtual world picture is a picture obtained by viewing the virtual world from a first-person perspective, the master virtual character is a virtual character located in the middle of the virtual world picture.

The virtual carrier is a transportation tool of the virtual character in the virtual world. For example, a virtual character may control a virtual vehicle to move in a virtual world. Illustratively, the virtual character controls the virtual vehicle to move faster in the world than the virtual character alone. Illustratively, the virtual vehicle includes: at least one of a vehicle, a ship, a naval vessel, a helicopter, and an airplane. In one example, the virtual vehicle is a vehicle having a cockpit. The cabin is internally provided with a riding position for riding the virtual character.

Illustratively, the seating positions in the virtual vehicle include a driving position and a passenger position.

For example, when the user triggers the location change control, the terminal controls the master avatar to change the seating location. Illustratively, the location change control is a UI control that is displayed on the user interface after the master virtual character enters the virtual vehicle.

The airborne virtual prop is a virtual prop fixed on the virtual vehicle. Illustratively, the onboard virtual items and virtual vehicles are not detachable (but do not exclude the possibility of detachment). For example, only the virtual character entering the virtual vehicle and located at the passenger's location may use the onboard virtual prop. Illustratively, the on-board virtual items are virtual weapons. The airborne virtual property includes: submachine guns, special guns, machine guns, artillery, guided missiles, laser weapons, microwave weapons, etc. For example, the onboard virtual prop may also be a virtual prop carried by a virtual character, such as a virtual prop held by a virtual character or a virtual prop located in a virtual character backpack. For example, when the virtual character installs the carried virtual item on the virtual vehicle to become an onboard virtual item, the attack attribute of the virtual item is enhanced, for example, the range side length, the killing force of the virtual item become large, and the like.

Illustratively, the second user interface includes a second virtual world screen and an ignition control located on the second virtual world screen.

The second virtual world picture is a picture of the virtual world collected using the perspective of the master virtual character when the master virtual character is located at the passenger position.

The firing control is a UI control used to control the onboard virtual items. Illustratively, the firing controls are used to control the launch of virtual items from the airborne virtual items. Illustratively, the second user interface includes at least one firing control.

And 108, after receiving the firing operation on the firing control, controlling the main control virtual role to use the onboard virtual prop on the virtual carrier to launch a virtual component.

And after receiving the firing operation on the firing control, the terminal controls the main control virtual role to use the onboard virtual prop on the virtual carrier to launch a virtual component.

The firing operation is a triggering operation made by a user on the firing control.

Illustratively, after receiving the firing operation on the firing control, the terminal controls the main control virtual character to use the onboard virtual prop on the virtual vehicle to eject the virtual component in the aiming direction according to the current aiming direction of the onboard virtual prop.

Illustratively, the onboard virtual props are fixed on the virtual vehicles. For example, the position of the onboard virtual item on the virtual vehicle may be: front, top, rear of the vehicle; the head, lower part, tail and side wing of the airplane; the upper part, the lower part, the left side, the right side and the like of the naval vessel.

For example, when the virtual component hits other virtual characters, the life values of the other virtual characters may be lowered. When the virtual component does not hit other virtual characters, the onboard virtual prop can collide with other virtual models in the virtual world. For example, after the virtual parts and other virtual models are installed, impact marks, such as bullet holes, are left on the surfaces of the other virtual models.

In summary, in the method provided in this embodiment, the airborne virtual item is added to the passenger position of the virtual vehicle, and when the virtual character is located at the passenger position, the virtual character can control the airborne virtual item to eject the virtual component to cause damage to other virtual characters. When the virtual character is located at the driving position, the virtual character can control the virtual carrier to move in the virtual world. The virtual carrier is combined with the airborne virtual prop, so that the virtual carrier has the functions of movement and attack, the virtual role can reduce the life value of other virtual roles by using the airborne virtual prop, and the airborne virtual prop is simple in use and convenient for user operation.

The application further provides an exemplary embodiment of a control method of the virtual vehicle. Fig. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a virtual vehicle according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application. The method may be applied in the first terminal 120 or the second terminal 160 in a computer system as shown in fig. 5 or in other terminals in the computer system. The method comprises the following steps:

step 101, when the collision information related to the master virtual character on the collision box is acquired, determining that the master virtual character is close to the virtual carrier.

And when the collision information related to the main control virtual role on the collision box is acquired, the terminal determines that the main control virtual role is close to the virtual carrier.

Illustratively, the terminal controls the master virtual character to move in the virtual world, when the master virtual character is located close to the virtual vehicle, the model of the master virtual character collides with a collision box on the virtual vehicle, and the collision box of the virtual vehicle acquires collision information. The collision information includes at least one of a collision point, a model generating a collision box with the collision box, a plane on which the collision point is located, and a material of the plane on which the collision point is located. When the terminal acquires collision information of collision between the main control virtual character and the collision box, the main control virtual character is determined to be very close to the virtual carrier.

Crash boxes are one way of crash detection. For example, the collision box may be a regular model or an irregular model. Illustratively, the crash box has a volume. The crash information can be detected by the surface of the crash box. That is, when an object in the virtual world contacts the crash box, the crash box can sense the crash and acquire the crash information.

Illustratively, at least one crash box is included on the virtual vehicle. Illustratively, the collision box is as close to the model of the virtual vehicle as possible, so as to more truly and accurately acquire the collision information between the master control virtual character and the virtual vehicle.

For example, when the virtual vehicle has a plurality of crash boxes, taking the virtual vehicle as a vehicle as an example, the crash boxes may be arranged in the following manner: the vehicle body is provided with a collision box close to the vehicle body, and the four wheels are respectively provided with four collision boxes close to the wheels.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 8, a crash box 301 is covered outside the virtual vehicle 202. When the model of the master virtual character 201 collides with the collision box 301, the terminal acquires collision information generated by the master virtual character 201 and the collision box 301, and determines that the master virtual character is close to the virtual vehicle 301.

And 102, displaying a position selection control when the master control virtual character is close to the virtual carrier.

And when the main control virtual character is close to the virtual carrier, the terminal displays a position selection control.

The position selection control is a UI control for receiving a position selection operation by a user. Illustratively, the position selection operation includes a passenger position selection operation corresponding to a passenger position, and a driving position selection operation corresponding to a driving position. For example, the passenger position selection operation is a double-click position selection control, and the driving position selection operation is a single-click position selection control. And the terminal controls the main control virtual character to enter the passenger position or the driving position of the virtual carrier according to the position selection operation. Illustratively, the position selection operation is a user-initiated operation of a position selection control. Illustratively, the position selection control can comprise a passenger position control corresponding to the passenger position and a driving position control corresponding to the driving position, and when the passenger position control receives a trigger operation, the terminal controls the main control virtual character to enter the passenger position; and when the driving position control receives the triggering operation, the terminal controls the main control virtual character to enter the driving position.

For example, as shown in fig. 9, after the master virtual character 201 approaches the virtual vehicle 202, position selection controls 302 are displayed on the user interface, which illustratively include a passenger position control 303 and a driving position control 304.

And 103, when the position selection operation on the position selection control is received, controlling the master control virtual character to enter the virtual carrier according to the position selection operation.

And when receiving the position selection operation on the position selection control, the terminal controls the main control virtual role to enter the virtual carrier according to the position selection operation.

Illustratively, the terminal controls the master virtual character to enter different riding positions in the virtual vehicle according to the position selection operation.

For example, as shown in fig. 9, when the terminal receives a position selection operation on the passenger position control 303, the terminal controls the master virtual character to enter the passenger position of the virtual vehicle; when the terminal receives the position selection operation on the driving position control 304, the terminal controls the master virtual character to enter the driving position of the virtual vehicle. As shown in fig. 10, the terminal controls the virtual character 201 to enter the driving position of the virtual vehicle 202.

Illustratively, the virtual vehicle includes at least one passenger position. Illustratively, each passenger position in the virtual vehicle corresponds to an onboard virtual item. For example, only one passenger position in the virtual vehicle corresponds to the onboard virtual item. Illustratively, a part of the positions of passengers in the virtual carrier correspond to the onboard virtual props.

For example, when the master virtual character is located within the virtual vehicle, a position change control is displayed on the user interface, i.e., the position change control is displayed on the user interface regardless of whether the master virtual character is located at the passenger position or the driving position.

For example, the position changing control may be a UI control, and at this time, the user triggers the position changing control, and may control the master virtual character to switch the seating position to the next seating position in the sequence. For example, the order in which the position change control switches positions is: a driving position, a first passenger position, a second passenger position, and then returning to the driving position. Then, when the main control virtual character is located at the first passenger position, the user triggers the position changing control, and can control the main control virtual character to switch the seating position to the next seating position in sequence: a second passenger position. When the main control virtual role is located at the position of the second passenger, the user triggers the position replacing control, and the main control virtual role can be controlled to switch the riding position to the next riding position in sequence: a driving position. For example, as shown in fig. 4, there is a position change control 305 at the lower left corner of the user interface, and when the user triggers a position change space, the terminal automatically switches the seating position of the master virtual character to the next seating position according to the seating position where the master virtual character is currently located and a preset position switching sequence.

For example, the position replacement control may include a plurality of UI controls, for example, one UI control is corresponding to each seating position on the virtual vehicle, and when a user triggers a certain UI control, the terminal controls the master virtual character to switch to the seating position corresponding to the UI control. For example, as shown in fig. 11, another position replacement control 305 is displayed at the lower left corner of the first user interface 400, the position replacement control 305 includes a first UI control 307 corresponding to the passenger position and a second UI control 306 corresponding to the driving position, and when the user triggers the first UI control 307, the terminal switches the seating position of the master virtual character to the passenger position.

For example, the first virtual world frame is a virtual world frame obtained by observing the virtual world from the viewpoint of the virtual vehicle.

The perspective is an observation angle when the virtual world is observed from a first person perspective or a third person perspective of the virtual character or the virtual vehicle. Optionally, in an embodiment of the present application, the viewing angle is an angle when the virtual character or the virtual vehicle is observed through the camera model in the virtual world.

The following describes the viewing angle by taking a virtual character as an example. Optionally, the camera model automatically follows the virtual character in the virtual world, that is, when the position of the virtual character in the virtual world changes, the camera model changes while following the position of the virtual character in the virtual world, and the camera model is always within the preset distance range of the virtual character in the virtual world. Optionally, the relative positions of the camera model and the virtual character do not change during the automatic following process.

The camera model refers to a three-dimensional model located around the virtual character in the virtual world, and when the first person perspective is adopted, the camera model is located near the head of the virtual character or at the head of the virtual character; when a third person perspective view is adopted, the camera model can be located behind the virtual character and bound with the virtual character, or located at any position away from the virtual character by a preset distance, the virtual character located in the virtual world can be observed from different angles through the camera model, and optionally, when the third person perspective view is the over-shoulder perspective view of the first person, the camera model is located behind the virtual character (such as the head and the shoulder of the virtual character). Optionally, the viewing angle includes other viewing angles, such as a top viewing angle, in addition to the first person viewing angle and the third person viewing angle; the camera model may be located overhead of the virtual character's head when a top-down view is used, which is a view looking into the virtual world from an overhead top-down view. Optionally, the camera model is not actually displayed in the virtual world, i.e. the camera model is not displayed in the virtual world displayed by the user interface.

To illustrate an example where the camera model is located at any position away from the virtual character by a preset distance, optionally, one virtual character corresponds to one camera model, and the camera model may rotate with the virtual character as a rotation center, for example: the camera model is rotated with any point of the virtual character as a rotation center, the camera model rotates not only angularly but also shifts in displacement during the rotation, and the distance between the camera model and the rotation center is kept constant during the rotation, that is, the camera model rotates on the surface of a sphere with the rotation center as the sphere center, wherein any point of the virtual character can be the head, the trunk or any point around the virtual character, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. Optionally, when the virtual character is observed by the camera model, the center of the view angle of the camera model points to the direction in which the point of the spherical surface on which the camera model is located points to the center of the sphere.

Optionally, the camera model may also observe the virtual character at a preset angle in different directions of the virtual character.

Referring to fig. 12, schematically, a point is determined in the virtual character 11 as a rotation center 12, and the camera model rotates around the rotation center 12, and optionally, the camera model is configured with an initial position, which is a position above and behind the virtual character (for example, a rear position of the brain). Illustratively, as shown in fig. 12, the initial position is position 13, and when the camera model rotates to position 14 or position 15, the direction of the angle of view of the camera model changes as the camera model rotates.

For example, as shown in fig. 11, a first user interface 400 is displayed, the first user interface 400 includes a first virtual world screen captured from the perspective of the virtual vehicle 202, and a position replacement control 305 for replacing the seating position of the master virtual character is provided in the lower left corner of the first user interface 400. Therein, the virtual vehicle 202 includes a driving position located inside the virtual vehicle 202, and a seating position 308 located on top of the virtual vehicle 202. The riding position 308 corresponds to the onboard virtual item 203 fixed to the virtual vehicle 202.

And 1051, after receiving the position replacement operation on the position replacement control, controlling the riding position of the main control virtual character to be replaced from the driving position to the passenger position.

And after receiving the position replacement operation on the position replacement control, the terminal controls the riding position of the main control virtual character to be replaced from the driving position to the passenger position.

For example, as shown in fig. 11, after receiving a trigger operation on the first UI control 307 corresponding to the passenger position in the position change control 305, the terminal controls the master virtual character to change from the driving position to the passenger position 308. As shown in fig. 13, the master avatar 201 is changed from the driving location 309 to the passenger location 308 of the virtual vehicle 202.

Step 1052, after receiving the position replacing operation on the position replacing control, controlling the view angle of the main control virtual character to be replaced from the driving view angle corresponding to the driving position to the fighting view angle corresponding to the passenger position.

And after the position replacing operation on the position replacing control is received, the terminal controls the visual angle of the main control virtual character to be replaced from the driving visual angle corresponding to the driving position to the fighting visual angle corresponding to the passenger position.

The driving perspective is a perspective that facilitates user control of the virtual vehicle. The combat perspective is a perspective that facilitates user control of airborne virtual props. Illustratively, the driving view takes the virtual vehicle as an observation focus, and the fighting view takes the master virtual character as an observation focus. Illustratively, the driving perspective has a smaller field of view than the combat perspective. Illustratively, the driving perspective is a perspective corresponding to the virtual vehicle. The battle view angle is the view angle corresponding to the master control virtual character. Illustratively, the virtual vehicle is located in the middle of the virtual world picture, which is obtained according to the driving perspective. And on the virtual world picture acquired according to the fighting view angle, the main control virtual character is positioned in the middle of the virtual world picture.

Illustratively, the range of view of the combat perspective is greater than the range of view of the driving perspective. Namely, the angle rotation range of the fighting visual angle is larger than the driving visual angle, and the rotation is flexible; and/or the width of the field of view at the combat perspective is greater than the driving perspective.

For example, as shown in fig. 14, in the virtual world, there is a first viewing angle 310 (a first camera model) corresponding to the virtual vehicle, and the first viewing angle 310 takes the virtual vehicle 202 as a center of sphere and a certain distance as a radius, and observes the virtual world around the surface of the sphere. In the virtual world, there is also a second viewing angle 311 (a second camera model) corresponding to the main control virtual character 201, and the second viewing angle 311 takes the main control virtual character 201 as a sphere center and takes a certain distance as a radius to observe the virtual world around the surface of the sphere.

For example, as shown in fig. 14, the second view angle 311 is farther forward and wider in view than the virtual world screen acquired from the first view angle 310.

And 106, after receiving the position replacement operation on the position replacement control, controlling the virtual carrier to be switched from the moving state to the stopping state.

And when the position replacing operation on the position replacing control is received, the terminal controls the virtual carrier to be switched from the moving state to the stopping state.

For example, when the master virtual character is changed from the driving position of the virtual vehicle to the passenger position, and no virtual character controls the movement of the virtual vehicle, the virtual vehicle stops moving immediately or stops moving after sliding for a certain distance under the action of inertia. That is, the terminal controls the virtual vehicle to switch from the moving state to the stopped state.

The stopped state is a stationary state of the virtual vehicle.

For example, the virtual vehicle may be used by multiple virtual characters simultaneously, for example, a first virtual character located at a driving position of the virtual vehicle to control movement of the virtual vehicle, and a second virtual character located at a passenger position of the virtual vehicle to control use of onboard virtual props.

Illustratively, step 1051, step 1052, and step 106 are three steps performed simultaneously or in any order followed by three steps.

And 107, displaying a second user interface, wherein the second user interface comprises a second virtual world picture and a firing control, and the second virtual world picture displays a main control virtual role positioned on the position of the passenger.

For example, as shown in fig. 15, a second user interface 500 is displayed, and the second user interface 500 includes a second virtual world screen in which the master virtual character 201 is located at the passenger position 308 of the virtual vehicle 202, and firing controls 312 located on the left and right sides of the second user interface 500.

And 108, after receiving the firing operation on the firing control, controlling the main control virtual character to use the airborne virtual prop to launch a virtual component.

For example, as shown in fig. 15, a foresight 313 corresponding to the onboard virtual prop is provided on the second user interface 500, and after the terminal receives a firing operation on the firing control, the main control virtual character is controlled to use the onboard virtual prop to shoot out the virtual component in a direction aimed at by the foresight 313.

Step 109, when the number of virtual components in the onboard virtual item is less than the maximum number, the onboard virtual item automatically supplements the virtual components at the target rate until the number of virtual components in the onboard virtual item reaches the maximum number.

Illustratively, the maximum number of virtual components is loaded in the airborne virtual item at most. The maximum number is the number of virtual parts that are loaded at most in the onboard virtual items.

Illustratively, the maximum number may also be positive infinity, i.e., there are an infinite number of virtual parts in the on-board virtual item.

When the number of the virtual components in the airborne virtual prop is less than the maximum number, the airborne virtual prop automatically supplements the virtual components at a target speed until the number of the virtual components in the airborne virtual prop reaches the maximum number.

Illustratively, the virtual components in the airborne virtual items are used indefinitely. That is, the virtual character can use the onboard virtual prop an unlimited number of times without any loading, charging, and maintenance operations.

For example, the maximum loading capacity of the virtual components in the airborne virtual item is fixed, and when the virtual character uses the airborne virtual item to launch all the virtual components in a short time, the airborne virtual item cannot launch the virtual components any more, and the virtual components need to be added into the airborne virtual item. Illustratively, an onboard virtual item is an item to which a virtual component may be automatically added. When the number of virtual components in the onboard virtual prop is less than the maximum number, the onboard virtual prop automatically supplements the number of virtual components. Exemplary, complementary ways may be: instantly supplementing the number of virtual parts to a maximum number; or, the number of dummy parts is gradually replenished at a certain speed until the maximum number is reached.

For example, the on-board virtual item is a virtual firearm, the virtual component is a virtual bullet corresponding to the virtual firearm, and the virtual firearm can be loaded with up to 100 virtual bullets. When the virtual firearm fires the virtual cartridges, the number of virtual cartridges in the virtual firearm is less than 100, for example: at the moment, 90 virtual bullets exist in the virtual firearms, and the virtual firearms immediately supplement the virtual bullets to 100 bullets; or, the virtual gun is gradually replenished with the virtual bullets at the speed of replenishing 1 bullet per second, the number of the virtual bullets in the virtual gun reaches 100 after 10 seconds, and the replenishment of the virtual bullets is stopped.

The target rate is the rate at which the onboard virtual item supplements the virtual component. Illustratively, the target rate is a value obtained by dividing the number of supplemental virtual parts of the airborne virtual item over a certain time by the certain time. For example, the target rate may be 10 per second, 1 per minute, etc. Illustratively, the target rate is less than the launch rate of the airborne virtual item in the continuous launch state. The launching state is the state that the speed of launching the virtual component by the airborne virtual prop is fastest. For example, when the user presses the firing control for a long time, the onboard virtual item enters a continuous launch state, and the virtual component is launched at a speed of 10 shots per second, then the target rate is a rate less than 10 shots per second.

The automatic supplement is that the supplement operation is performed without the main control virtual role, and the airborne virtual property can be automatically completed.

Illustratively, the second user interface further comprises a margin hint control for the virtual part. For example, when the maximum number is a positive number of fixed values, the number of virtual parts remaining in the airborne virtual item may be displayed on the second user interface.

And the allowance prompt control is a UI control corresponding to the number of virtual components in the airborne virtual prop. For example, the number of virtual components in the airborne virtual item is displayed on the allowance prompt control.

And step 110, acquiring the ejection number and ejection time of the airborne virtual prop for ejecting the virtual components, and acquiring the maximum number and target speed of the airborne virtual props.

The terminal obtains the ejection number and the ejection time of the airborne virtual prop ejection virtual components, and obtains the maximum number and the target speed of the airborne virtual props.

The ejection number is the number of the ejected virtual components when the onboard virtual tool is in the full-load state and the first virtual component is ejected until the onboard virtual tool reaches the next full-load state. The full load state is a state in which the number of virtual components in the onboard virtual item reaches the maximum number.

The ejection time is the time when the airborne virtual prop ejects each virtual component.

And step 111, calculating the current number of the virtual components in the airborne virtual prop according to the ejection speed, the ejection time, the maximum number of the airborne virtual props and the target speed of the virtual components.

And the terminal calculates the current number of the virtual components in the airborne virtual prop according to the ejection speed, the ejection time, the maximum number of the airborne virtual props and the target speed of the virtual components.

The current number is the number of virtual parts in the airborne virtual item at the current time.

For example, an onboard virtual item may emit 10 virtual components at 1 minute 30 seconds, 5 virtual components at 1 minute 35 seconds, the maximum number of onboard virtual items is 100, the target rate is 1 per second, and the current time is 1 minute 40 seconds. Then the current number of virtual parts in the virtual item carried at 1 minute 40 seconds is: 100-10-5+10, 95.

And 112, displaying the allowance prompt information of the virtual components on the allowance prompt control according to the current quantity.

And the terminal displays the allowance prompt information of the virtual components on the allowance prompt control according to the current quantity.

Illustratively, the terminal displays the allowance prompt information of the virtual component on the allowance prompt control according to at least one of the current quantity and the maximum quantity.

The allowance prompt information is the number information of the virtual components in the current airborne virtual item. Illustratively, the margin prompting information can be displayed in the form of at least one of number, percentage and progress bar. Illustratively, the allowance indication information includes at least one of a maximum number of the on-board virtual items that can be loaded with virtual components and a current number of virtual components that are currently loaded in the on-board virtual items.

For example, as shown in FIG. 15, a margin hint control 314 is displayed on the second user interface 500. The margin hint control displays the percentage progress bars for the current number and the maximum number. The larger the current quantity is, the larger the colorless part of the margin prompting control 314 is, otherwise, the larger the shaded part of the margin prompting control 314 is, and when no virtual component exists in the onboard virtual item, the margin prompting control 314 is filled with the shadow completely.

And step 113, when the number of the virtual components in the onboard virtual item is zero, prompting that the onboard virtual item cannot be fired.

When the number of the virtual components in the airborne virtual prop is zero, the terminal prompts that the airborne virtual prop cannot be fired.

For example, when the number of virtual components in the onboard virtual item is zero, the user clicks the firing control again, and the terminal prompts that the onboard virtual item cannot fire.

For example, when there is no virtual component in the onboard virtual item, the onboard virtual item cannot be shot, and at this time, the user is prompted that the onboard virtual item cannot be used.

For example, the terminal prompts that the onboard virtual property cannot be fired by at least one of display, voice and vibration. For example, prompt information that the fire cannot be fired is displayed on a user interface in a display mode; playing a voice prompt which cannot be fired in a voice mode; through the vibration mode, when the onboard virtual prop does not have a virtual component, and the user clicks the firing control again, the terminal vibrates to prompt the user that the current onboard virtual prop cannot eject the virtual component.

For example, as shown in fig. 16, when the number of virtual components in the onboard virtual item is zero, the margin prompting control 314 is completely filled with the shaded portion, and at this time, the user clicks the firing control 312 again, and the terminal displays the firing impossible prompt 315 on the second user interface 500, so as to prompt the user that the ammunition in the onboard virtual item is insufficient and cannot be used.

And step 114, after receiving the position replacement operation on the position replacement control again, controlling the main control virtual character to be replaced from the passenger position to the driving position.

And after the position replacing operation on the position replacing control is received again, the terminal controls the main control virtual character to be replaced from the passenger position to the driving position.

Illustratively, a position change control is also included on the second user interface.

When the main control virtual machine role is located at the passenger position, the position replacing control receives the position replacing operation, and the terminal controls the main control virtual machine role to be replaced from the passenger position to the driving position.

Illustratively, after receiving the position replacement operation on the position replacement control again, the terminal controls the riding position of the main control virtual character to be replaced from the passenger position to the driving position; and controlling the visual angle of the main control virtual character to be changed from the fighting visual angle corresponding to the passenger position to the driving visual angle corresponding to the driving position.

For example, as shown in fig. 16, when the master virtual character 201 is located at the passenger position 308 and the second UI control 306 in the position change control 305 receives a position change operation, the terminal controls the master virtual character to change from the passenger position 308 to the driving position, and controls the perspective of the master virtual character to change from the fighting perspective shown in fig. 16 to the driving perspective shown in fig. 17.

Step 115, displaying a third user interface, the third user interface including a driving control.

The terminal displays a third user interface, which includes a driving control.

The third user interface is the interface when the master virtual character is in the driving position. Illustratively, the third user interface includes a third virtual world screen, a position change control and a driving control, which are acquired according to a driving view angle. Illustratively, the third user interface and the first user interface are the same interface displayed by the terminal at different times. That is, the UI controls on the third user interface and the first user interface are the same. Illustratively, the third virtual world screen and the first virtual world screen are different virtual world screens acquired at different times from the driving perspective. For example, the third virtual world screen and the first virtual world screen may be the same virtual world screen.

The driving control is a UI control used to control the movement of the virtual vehicle in the virtual world. Illustratively, the driving controls include at least one of a forward control, a reverse control, a throttle control, a brake control, a left turn control, a right turn control, a direction control, an elevation control, and a descent control. Illustratively, the terminal moves the position of the virtual vehicle in the virtual world according to the triggering operation on the driving control. For example, when a triggering operation of a user on the driving control is not received, the virtual vehicle is in a static state or a free-wheeling state.

For example, as shown in FIG. 17, there is a driving control 316 on the third user interface 600. Illustratively, the steering controls 316 include a throttle control 3161, a brake control 3162, and a direction control 3163.

And step 116, when the driving operation on the driving control is received, controlling the virtual vehicle to enter a moving state according to the driving operation.

And when the driving operation on the driving control is received, the terminal controls the virtual vehicle to enter a moving state according to the driving operation.

The driving operation is a trigger operation performed by the user on the driving control. Illustratively, the terminal controls the moving mode of the virtual vehicle in the virtual world according to the driving operation. The moving mode comprises the following steps: at least one of forward, backward, acceleration, deceleration, steering, ascending and descending.

The moving state is a state in which the position of the virtual vehicle in the virtual world changes constantly with time.

For example, as shown in fig. 17, when the terminal receives a driving operation on the throttle control 3161, the terminal controls the virtual vehicle to move in an accelerated manner in the virtual world; when the terminal receives a driving operation on the brake control 3162, the terminal controls the virtual vehicle to move in a deceleration mode in the virtual world; when the terminal receives the driving operation on the direction control 3163, the terminal controls the virtual vehicle to move forwards, backwards, leftwards and rightwards in the virtual world according to the driving operation;

By observing the main control virtual roles at different riding positions on the virtual carrier at different viewing angles, when the main control virtual roles are positioned at the driving positions, the driving viewing angle with a smaller viewing range is provided, so that a user can conveniently control the heavy virtual carrier to move in the virtual world; when the main control virtual role is positioned at the position of the passenger, a fighting visual angle with a larger visual field range is provided, so that a user can conveniently control the airborne virtual prop to shoot in the virtual world, the visual field of the main control virtual role shooting on the virtual carrier is widened, and the user operation is facilitated.

The position changing controls are arranged on the first user interface and the second user interface to control the main control virtual role to change the riding position in the virtual carrier, so that the main control virtual role can freely control the virtual carrier to move in the virtual world or control the airborne virtual prop to eject a virtual component.

Through adding surplus suggestion controlling part, the surplus quantity of virtual part in the suggestion user machine-mounted virtual stage property, when the quantity of virtual part in the machine-mounted virtual stage property is less, can remind the user to switch main control virtual role from passenger's position to driving position, shifts the position as soon as possible to do not have firepower to cover, make oneself openly enemy.

Through setting the onboard virtual prop on the virtual carrier into an automatic supplementary virtual part, a user does not need to pick up the virtual part from the virtual world and manually supplements the virtual part for the virtual carrier, the use difficulty of the onboard virtual prop is reduced, and the use durability of the onboard virtual prop is improved.

Through add the collision box on virtual carrier, can be accurate detect main control virtual role's being close to, improve the detection sensitivity of terminal striking between main control virtual role and the virtual carrier.

The application also provides an exemplary embodiment for controlling the virtual character to enter the virtual carrier.

Fig. 18 is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a virtual vehicle according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application, where the method may be applied to the first terminal 120 or the second terminal 160 in the computer system shown in fig. 5 or other terminals in the computer system. Unlike the control method of the virtual vehicle shown in fig. 6, steps 102, 1031, and 1032 are added before step 104:

Step 1301, when a position selection operation on the position selection control is received, a root node on a role model of the main control virtual role is obtained, the role model is a three-dimensional model corresponding to the main control virtual role in the virtual world, the root node is a point on the main control virtual role model, and the main control virtual role model moves along with the movement of the root node.

When receiving a position selection operation on the position selection control, the terminal acquires a root node on the role model of the main control virtual role.

The root node is a point on the character model. For example, the position of the root node in the virtual world may represent the position of the master virtual character in the virtual world, that is, when the position of the root node is determined, the positions of other nodes on the character model in the virtual world are determined according to the position of the root node.

For example, after the master virtual character enters the virtual vehicle, the character model of the master virtual character moves along with the movement of the virtual vehicle, and only a root node on the character model needs to be connected with a point on the virtual vehicle model, and the root node moves along with the movement of the virtual vehicle, so that the character model of the master virtual character moves along with the movement of the virtual vehicle.

For example, there is a root node (0, 0) on the role model of the master virtual role, and there is a second node (1, 0) one unit distance from the root node. Then, when the root node moves to the (3, 3) position, the second node moves with the movement of the root node, i.e., to the (4, 3) position.

Step 1302, associate the root node with a first node on a virtual vehicle model, where the virtual vehicle model is a virtual model of a virtual vehicle in a virtual world, the first node is a point on the virtual vehicle model, and the association controls a position of one node to move along with a movement of another node.

The terminal associates the root node with a first node on the virtual vehicle model.

Illustratively, the terminal mounts the root node under the first node on the virtual vehicle model. I.e., the root node moves as the first node on the virtual vehicle model moves. When the position of the first node of the virtual vehicle model in the virtual world is determined, the position of the root node in the virtual world is determined according to the position of the first node.

For example, there is a first node (0, 0) on the virtual vehicle, and the root node is mounted under the first node, and initially, the root node is located at (0, 1). Then when the first node moves to the (1, 1) position, the first node follows the movement to the (1, 2) position.

In summary, in the method provided in this embodiment, the root node on the master virtual character model is associated with the first node on the virtual vehicle model, and the master virtual character model is controlled to move in the virtual world along with the virtual vehicle, so that the master virtual character enters the virtual vehicle, and the virtual vehicle can move in the virtual world while carrying the master virtual character.

For example, the methods provided in the above embodiments can be split and then freely combined into new embodiments.

The application also provides an exemplary embodiment of a control method for using the virtual carrier in the tactical competitive game. A tactical competitive game is a game in which a plurality of virtual characters participate together, and the plurality of virtual characters play in a virtual world for survival.

Fig. 19 is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a virtual vehicle according to another exemplary embodiment of the present application, where the method may be applied to the first terminal 120 or the second terminal 160 in the computer system shown in fig. 5 or other terminals in the computer system. The method comprises the following steps:

step 701, the terminal controls the master control virtual character to search for a combat carrier.

Illustratively, the master avatar first looks for a combat vehicle (virtual vehicle) in the virtual world.

In step 702, the terminal determines whether the master control avatar has found a combat vehicle.

When the master control virtual character finds the battle carrier, the step 703 is performed; otherwise, the procedure returns to step 701.

Illustratively, the master avatar finds the battle carrier, i.e., the battle carrier appears on the virtual world scene.

In step 703, the terminal controls the master virtual character to walk beside the combat vehicle.

For example, after the master virtual character finds the combat vehicle, the terminal controls the master virtual character to approach the combat vehicle, that is, the master virtual character model collides with a collision box on the combat vehicle, the collision box acquires collision information, and the terminal displays a position selection control on a user interface.

In step 704, the terminal determines whether the user clicks on the passenger location.

Illustratively, the position selection control is provided with a passenger position selection control corresponding to the passenger position and a driving position selection control corresponding to the driving position. When the user clicks the passenger position selection control corresponding to the passenger position, step 705 is performed; otherwise, the process returns to step 703.

Step 705, the terminal controls the master virtual character to enter the combat vehicle.

Illustratively, the terminal controls the position of the passenger that the master avatar enters into the combat vehicle.

In step 706, the terminal determines whether the user clicks to fire.

Illustratively, when the user clicks the firing control on the user interface, step 707 is performed, otherwise step 705 is returned.

In step 707, the terminal controls the master virtual character to fire a bullet using a weapon.
