Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
The embodiment of the application provides a method and a device for displaying a visual field area, a storage medium and computer equipment.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a scene schematic view of a display method of a view area according to an embodiment of the present application, where the display method of the view area may be applied to a computer device, and the computer device is specifically a server or a terminal, where the server may include a background server of a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) game, and the terminal may include a smart phone, a tablet computer, a game machine, and other devices.
When the view display instruction is detected, the computer device can determine the display position of the current player character in the game interface; determining a visual field area of the current player character according to the display position; generating a corresponding visual field indication outline according to the boundary of the visual field area; displaying the view indication outline on the game interface to display the view area to the current player character.
Wherein the field of view region is generally an area of a default size and shape, which may include a circle, formed centered on the display position of the player character. The player character generally refers to a virtual game character manipulated by a real player, such as Danji, shooter, and the like. The viewing indication contour is typically a closed indication contour, such as a circle, formed by the boundary lines of the viewing area. The visual indication outline may be displayed on the game interface in a highlighted form.
For example, referring to fig. 1, the computer device may be a mobile terminal, and when a user enters a game interface and clicks a small-eye button, a visual field display instruction may be generated by triggering, at this time, the mobile terminal may determine a display position of a current player character by itself, or may obtain the position from a server, and then draw a circle with a default size with the display position as a center to obtain a visual field indication outline, where the size of the default size depends on a visual field range set by the system for each game character, and then display the visual field indication outline in red on the game interface.
As shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart of a method for displaying a view area according to an embodiment of the present application, where the method for displaying a view area is applied to a computer device, and a specific flow may be as follows:
s101, when a visual field display instruction is detected, the display position of the current player character in the game interface is determined.
The player character generally refers to a virtual game character manipulated by a player, such as a Danji character, a shooter character, and the like. The display position of each player character may be determined by the mobile terminal itself based on the display screen, or may be determined by the server and transmitted to the mobile terminal.
The visual field display instruction is usually generated by manual triggering, the triggering rule of the visual field display instruction can be determined according to requirements, for example, the visual field display instruction can be generated by operating and triggering an existing conventional key, generally, the conventional key can be provided with a set of existing operating rules for realizing the functions of the conventional key, and the visual field display instruction can be additionally provided with a rule different from the existing operating rules for realizing the triggering generation of the visual field display instruction on the conventional key. In addition, the visual field display instruction can be generated by the user operating a newly added key on the game interface.
For example, before the step S101, the method for displaying the visual field region further includes:
displaying a preset control on the game interface, wherein the preset control is used for displaying or hiding a visual field area;
detecting whether a user carries out preset touch operation on the preset control or not;
if yes, generating a visual field display instruction.
For example, please refer to fig. 3, the preset control may be designed as an eye icon, and the default state of the preset control is a display state, that is, a state visible to the user. The preset touch operation may include double-click, single-click, long-press, or the like, for example, when the user enters the game interface and clicks an eye icon displayed on the game interface, the generation of the view display instruction is triggered.
And S102, determining the visual field area of the current player character according to the display position.
Wherein the field of view is generally an area of a default size and shape formed centered on the display position of the player character, the shape may include a circle representing the field of view that the user can see on his or her own. Generally, the default size and shape set by the system for different virtual game characters in the same game are the same, which is equivalent to the size and shape of the visual field range that each virtual game character can see without the help of the visual fields of other virtual game characters or default building characters.
And S103, generating a corresponding visual field indication outline according to the boundary of the visual field area.
Therein, a line of the field of view indication contour, which is typically a closed shape, such as a closed circle, may be drawn along the border of the field of view region.
It should be noted that, a small map display frame is usually further provided on the existing game interface, and the small map display frame is an important auxiliary tool for users to know the situation of the whole game battle, and the approximate position of each player character in our battle on the whole game map and the approximate position of the enemy player character that can be seen by our player character in the enemy battle are displayed on the small map display frame, so that the users can view the teammate movement and the enemy movement through viewing the small map display frame, thereby facilitating the control of the virtual characters of themselves. In order to further enrich the functional role of the map minimap display frame, the present application also provides a warning and reminding function, for example, after step S103, the method for displaying the view area may further include:
determining the whole view field area of the battle field area, wherein the whole view field area comprises the view field area of the current player character and the view field area of the friend player character belonging to the same battle;
detecting whether an enemy player character which is positioned in the visual field indicating outline or is less than a preset threshold value from the visual field indicating outline exists in the whole visual field area;
if so, the display mode of the corresponding enemy player character in the minimap display frame is set to the blinking mode.
The preset threshold is mainly used to define the distance between players, for example, two players separated by a distance less than the preset threshold consider the distance to be closer, and conversely, consider the distance to be farther. The overall field of view also includes the field of view of default building characters, such as the field of view of defense towers and soldiers. The blinking mode refers to a mode for displaying an object based on a cyclic interleaving mode, and the interleaving mode may be a mode in which the object is regularly interleaved in two colors with a relatively large contrast, or a mode in which the object is regularly interleaved in two colors with high and low brightness.
Because in the existing hand game, the whole visual field area can not be displayed to the current player user at one time, and more areas can be seen only by controlling the movement of the player character through moving the rocker, the phenomenon that some enemy players in the visual field area of friend players and even in the visual field area of the enemy players can not be directly found by the current player easily exists, and if the enemy players are close to the current player, the enemy players are easily damaged and need to be warned. Considering that the enemy players displayed in the small map display frame normally include those directly seen by the current player and those seen by the friend players, when the enemy players in the entire visual field area within the visual field indication contour or outside the visual field indication contour but in close proximity to the visual field indication contour are determined, these enemy players can be displayed in a blinking mode so as to be quickly perceived by the user.
For example, referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 shows a small map display frame on which my players a1, a2, A3, a4, and a5, and enemy players B1, B2, and B3 are displayed, wherein if the current player is a1 and it is determined that B2 is inside the visual field indication outline, B3 and B1 are outside the visual field indication outline, but B3 is close to the visual field indication outline, B2 and B3 may be displayed in a blinking mode.
S104, displaying the visual field indication outline on the game interface so as to display the visual field area to the current player character.
The visual field indication outline may be directly displayed in a default color, for example, the default color is green, or the display color may be determined according to the actual situation of the surrounding players.
For example, the step S102 may specifically include:
determining all player characters contained in the visual field area;
determining a target display color based on the determined player character;
and displaying the visual field indication outline on the game interface in the target display color.
Where the player characters within the field of view are typically game characters that are currently visible to the player himself, which may include friend player characters and enemy player characters.
Specifically, the step of "determining the target display color according to the determined player character" may include:
when the determined player characters comprise enemy player characters, taking a first preset display color as a target display color, wherein the enemy player characters and the current player character belong to different battle battles;
and when the determined player character does not include the enemy player character, setting a second preset display color as a target display color.
The first preset display color and the second preset display color can be set manually, for example, the first preset display color can be red, the second preset color can be white, and generally, the risk degree of an enemy player to a current player in a visual field area is obviously higher than the risk degree of all enemy players to the current player in the visual field area, so that the visual impact sense brought to a user by the first preset display color is stronger than the visual impact sense brought to the user by the second preset display color.
In other embodiments, the step of "determining a target display color based on the determined player character" may include:
when the determined player characters comprise enemy player characters, obtaining color values of pixel points in the visual field area; determining a strong contrast color corresponding to the visual field area according to the color value, and taking the strong contrast color as a target display color;
and when the determined player character does not include the enemy player character, setting a second preset display color as a target display color.
The average color value of all the pixel points can be taken, or the color values with more proportion in all the pixel points are taken as the reference color, for example, if the green grassland area has more proportion, the green is taken as the reference color, and then the color with the strongest contrast with the reference color is taken as the strong contrast color, so that the display color of the visual field indication outline can be determined by combining with an actual game picture, and the flexibility is high.
As can be seen from the above, in the method for displaying a view area provided in this embodiment, when a view display instruction is detected, the display position of the current player character in the game interface is determined, the view area of the current player character is determined according to the display position, then a corresponding view indication contour is generated according to the boundary of the view area, and the view indication contour is displayed on the game interface, so as to display the view area to the current player character, thereby helping a user accurately determine the security state of the user in the game process, reducing the determination error rate, being simple and convenient to operate, being beneficial to the user to better grasp the game dynamics and advance the strategic layout, and improving the game experience.
On the basis of the above embodiments, the present embodiment will further describe a display method of the field area by way of example. Referring to fig. 5 and 6, a method for displaying a viewing area includes the following steps:
s201, displaying a preset control on the game interface, wherein the preset control is used for displaying or hiding the visual field area.
S202, detecting whether a user carries out preset touch operation on the preset control, if so, generating a view display instruction, and if not, re-detecting.
For example, in fig. 6, a small-eye button may be set on the game interface in advance, and when the user enters the game interface and clicks the small-eye button, the generation of the visual field display instruction is triggered.
S203, determining the display position of the current player character in the game interface, and determining the visual field area of the current player character according to the display position.
And S204, generating a corresponding visual field indication outline according to the boundary of the visual field area.
For example, in FIG. 6, an enemy player character B2, a current player character A1, and a friend player character A2 may be displayed on the game interface, with the view indicating outline being a circle centered at A1 (the circle is not fully displayed on the game interface)
S205, determining the whole view field area of the battle field area including the view field area of the current player character and the view field area of the friend player character belonging to the same battle.
S206, detecting whether there is an enemy player character in the entire visual field area, which is located within the visual field indication contour or whose closest distance from the visual field indication contour is less than a preset threshold, if there is an enemy player character, executing the following step S207, otherwise, detecting again.
And S207, setting the display mode of the corresponding enemy player character in the minimap display frame to be a flashing mode.
For example, in FIG. 6, the minimap display box is located in the upper left corner of the game interface, on which my players A1, A2, A3, A4, and A5, and enemy players B1, B2, and B3 are displayed. If the current player is A1, and it is determined that B2 is within the visual field indication outline, B3 and B1 are outside the visual field indication outline, but B3 is close to the visual field indication outline, then B2 and B3 may be displayed in the small map display box in a blinking mode, while A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, and B1 are displayed in a normal display mode.
And S208, determining all player characters contained in the visual field area, and determining the target display color according to the determined player characters.
In one embodiment, the step of "determining a target display color according to the determined player character" may include:
when the determined player characters comprise enemy player characters, taking a first preset display color as a target display color, wherein the enemy player characters and the current player character belong to different battle battles;
and when the determined player character does not include the enemy player character, setting a second preset display color as a target display color.
For example, the first preset display color may be red, and the second preset color may be white, in fig. 6, since B2 is within the visual field indication contour, red is taken as the target display color, that is, the color of the visual field indication contour presented on the screen.
In other embodiments, the step of "determining a target display color based on the determined player character" may include:
when the determined player characters comprise enemy player characters, obtaining color values of pixel points in the visual field area; determining a strong contrast color corresponding to the visual field area according to the color value, and taking the strong contrast color as a target display color;
and when the determined player character does not include the enemy player character, setting a second preset display color as a target display color.
For example, if a large piece of green grass is included in the field of view, the strong contrast color may be red.
S209, displaying the visual field indication outline on the game interface in the target display color so as to display the visual field area to the current player character.
On the basis of the above embodiments, the present embodiment will be further described from the perspective of the display device in the field of view, please refer to fig. 7, and fig. 7 specifically describes the display device in the field of view provided by the embodiment of the present application, which may include: a first determining module 10, a second determining module 20, a generating module 30 and a display module 40, wherein:
(1) first determination module 10
The first determining module 10 is configured to determine a display position of a current player character in the game interface when the visual field display instruction is detected.
The player character generally refers to a virtual game character manipulated by a player, such as a Danji character, a shooter character, and the like. The display position of each player character may be determined by the mobile terminal itself based on the display screen, or may be determined by the server and transmitted to the mobile terminal.
The visual field display instruction is usually generated by manual triggering, the triggering rule of the visual field display instruction can be determined according to requirements, for example, the visual field display instruction can be generated by operating and triggering an existing conventional key, generally, the conventional key can be provided with a set of existing operating rules for realizing the functions of the conventional key, and the visual field display instruction can be additionally provided with a rule different from the existing operating rules for realizing the triggering generation of the visual field display instruction on the conventional key. In addition, the visual field display instruction can be generated by the user operating a newly added key on the game interface.
For example, referring to fig. 8, the display device further includes a triggering module 50 for:
displaying a preset control on the game interface, wherein the preset control is used for displaying or hiding a visual field area;
detecting whether a user carries out preset touch operation on the preset control or not;
if yes, generating a visual field display instruction.
For example, please refer to fig. 3, the preset control may be designed as an eye icon, and the default state of the preset control is a display state, that is, a state visible to the user. The preset touch operation may include double-click, single-click, long-press, or the like, for example, when the user enters the game interface and clicks an eye icon displayed on the game interface, the generation of the view display instruction is triggered.
(2) Second determination module 20
And a second determining module 20, configured to determine a visual field area of the current player character according to the display position.
Wherein the field of view is generally an area of a default size and shape formed centered on the display position of the player character, the shape may include a circle representing the field of view that the user can see on his or her own. Generally, the default size and shape set by the system for different virtual game characters in the same game are the same, which is equivalent to the size and shape of the visual field range that each virtual game character can see without the help of the visual fields of other virtual game characters or default building characters.
(3) Generation module 30
A generating module 30, configured to generate a corresponding view indication contour according to the boundary of the view area.
Therein, a line of the field of view indication contour, which is typically a closed shape, such as a closed circle, may be drawn along the border of the field of view region.
It should be noted that, a small map display frame is usually further provided on the existing game interface, and the small map display frame is an important auxiliary tool for users to know the situation of the whole game battle, and the approximate position of each player character in our battle on the whole game map and the approximate position of the enemy player character that can be seen by our player character in the enemy battle are displayed on the small map display frame, so that the users can view the teammate movement and the enemy movement through viewing the small map display frame, thereby facilitating the control of the virtual characters of themselves. For the functional role of further richening map display frame, this application has still given its warning and has reminded the function, for example, this display device still includes scintillation module 60 for:
after generating a corresponding visual field indication outline according to the boundary of the visual field area, determining the whole visual field area of the battle stand where the current player character is located, wherein the whole visual field area comprises the visual field area of the current player character and the visual field area of the friend player character belonging to the same battle stand with the current player character;
detecting whether an enemy player character which is positioned in the visual field indicating outline or is less than a preset threshold value from the visual field indicating outline exists in the whole visual field area;
if so, the display mode of the corresponding enemy player character in the minimap display frame is set to the blinking mode.
The preset threshold is mainly used to define the distance between players, for example, two players separated by a distance less than the preset threshold consider the distance to be closer, and conversely, consider the distance to be farther. The overall field of view also includes the field of view of default building characters, such as the field of view of defense towers and soldiers. The blinking mode refers to a mode for displaying an object based on a cyclic interleaving mode, and the interleaving mode may be a mode in which the object is regularly interleaved in two colors with a relatively large contrast, or a mode in which the object is regularly interleaved in two colors with high and low brightness.
Because in the existing hand game, the whole visual field area can not be displayed to the current player user at one time, and more areas can be seen only by controlling the movement of the player character through moving the rocker, the phenomenon that some enemy players in the visual field area of friend players and even in the visual field area of the enemy players can not be directly found by the current player easily exists, and if the enemy players are close to the current player, the enemy players are easily damaged and need to be warned. Considering that the enemy players displayed in the small map display frame normally include those directly seen by the current player and those seen by the friend players, when the enemy players in the entire visual field area within the visual field indication contour or outside the visual field indication contour but in close proximity to the visual field indication contour are determined, these enemy players can be displayed in a blinking mode so as to be quickly perceived by the user.
For example, referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 shows a small map display frame on which my players a1, a2, A3, a4, and a5, and enemy players B1, B2, and B3 are displayed, wherein if the current player is a1 and it is determined that B2 is inside the visual field indication outline, B3 and B1 are outside the visual field indication outline, but B3 is close to the visual field indication outline, B2 and B3 may be displayed in a blinking mode.
(4) Display module 40
A display module 40, configured to display the view indication contour on the game interface so as to display the view area to the current player character.
The visual field indication outline may be directly displayed in a default color, for example, the default color is green, or the display color may be determined according to the actual situation of the surrounding players.
For example, the display module 40 is specifically configured to:
determining all player characters contained in the visual field area;
determining a target display color based on the determined player character;
and displaying the visual field indication outline on the game interface in the target display color.
Where the player characters within the field of view are typically game characters that are currently visible to the player himself, which may include friend player characters and enemy player characters.
In one embodiment, the display module 40 is specifically configured to:
when the determined player characters comprise enemy player characters, taking a first preset display color as a target display color, wherein the enemy player characters and the current player character belong to different battle battles;
and when the determined player character does not include the enemy player character, setting a second preset display color as a target display color.
The first preset display color and the second preset display color can be set manually, for example, the first preset display color can be red, the second preset color can be white, and generally, the risk degree of an enemy player to a current player in a visual field area is obviously higher than the risk degree of all enemy players to the current player in the visual field area, so that the visual impact sense brought to a user by the first preset display color is stronger than the visual impact sense brought to the user by the second preset display color.
In another embodiment, the display module 40 is specifically configured to:
when the determined player characters comprise enemy player characters, obtaining color values of pixel points in the visual field area; determining a strong contrast color corresponding to the visual field area according to the color value, and taking the strong contrast color as a target display color;
and when the determined player character does not include the enemy player character, setting a second preset display color as a target display color.
The average color value of all the pixel points can be taken, or the color values with more proportion in all the pixel points are taken as the reference color, for example, if the green grassland area has more proportion, the green is taken as the reference color, and then the color with the strongest contrast with the reference color is taken as the strong contrast color, so that the display color of the visual field indication outline can be determined by combining with an actual game picture, and the flexibility is high.
In a specific implementation, the above units may be implemented as independent entities, or may be combined arbitrarily to be implemented as the same or several entities, and the specific implementation of the above units may refer to the foregoing method embodiments, which are not described herein again.
As can be seen from the above, in the display device of the view area provided in this embodiment, when a view display instruction is detected, the first determining module 10 determines the display position of the current player character in the game interface, the second determining module 20 determines the view area of the current player character according to the display position, then the generating module 30 generates a corresponding view indication contour according to the boundary of the view area, and the displaying module 40 displays the view indication contour on the game interface to display the view area to the current player character, so as to help the user accurately determine the security state of the user during the game process, reduce the failure rate of determination, and facilitate the user to better grasp the game dynamics and advance the strategic layout, thereby improving the game experience.
