When the information positioning method in the game runs on the server, the method can be implemented and executed based on a cloud interaction system, wherein the cloud interaction system comprises the server and the client device.

In an optional embodiment, various cloud applications may be run under the cloud interaction system, for example: and (5) cloud games. Taking a cloud game as an example, a cloud game refers to a game mode based on cloud computing. In the running mode of the cloud game, the running main body of the game program and the game picture presenting main body are separated, the storage and the running of the information positioning method in the game are completed on a cloud game server, and the client equipment is used for receiving and sending data and presenting the game picture, for example, the client equipment can be display equipment with a data transmission function close to a user side, such as a mobile terminal, a television, a computer, a palm computer and the like; but the cloud game server which performs information processing is a cloud. When a game is played, a player operates the client device to send an operation instruction to the cloud game server, the cloud game server runs the game according to the operation instruction, data such as game pictures and the like are encoded and compressed, the data are returned to the client device through a network, and finally the data are decoded through the client device and the game pictures are output.

In an optional implementation manner, taking a game as an example, the local terminal device stores a game program and is used for presenting a game screen. The local terminal device is used for interacting with the player through a graphical user interface, namely, a game program is downloaded and installed and operated through an electronic device conventionally. The manner in which the local terminal device provides the graphical user interface to the player may include a variety of ways, for example, it may be rendered for display on a display screen of the terminal or provided to the player through holographic projection. For example, the local terminal device may include a display screen for presenting a graphical user interface including a game screen and a processor for running the game, generating the graphical user interface, and controlling display of the graphical user interface on the display screen.

In a possible implementation manner, an embodiment of the present invention provides an information positioning method in a game, where a graphical user interface is provided by a terminal device, where the terminal device may be the aforementioned local terminal device, and may also be the aforementioned client device in a cloud interaction system.

The technical solution of the present application will be described in detail below with specific examples. The following several specific embodiments may be combined with each other, and details of the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments.

First, a detailed description is given to an information positioning method in a game disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention, in which a terminal device provides a graphical user interface, a content displayed on the graphical user interface at least includes a message display window of the game, and the message display window is used for displaying chat information in the game, referring to a flow diagram of the information positioning method in the game shown in fig. 1, the method mainly includes the following steps S102 to S106:

step S102, monitoring whether each piece of chat information contains preset target attention information. The chat information may be chat among players or system information (such as combat information or announcement information), the target attention information may be understood as a keyword, may be a default setting of the game, or may be configured by the player, the target attention information may include a copy name, a game activity name, and the like, and the target attention information may be at least one. In one embodiment, multiple players may send and view messages in the message display window, and chat messages sent by each player are identified to determine whether the chat messages include target interest information, for example, two target interest information "a" and "B" are pre-configured to identify whether each piece of chat messages includes two target interest information "a" and "B".

And step S104, if so, providing an information label corresponding to the target attention information in the message display window through the graphical user interface. The information label can be an operable control, and the content displayed by the information label at least comprises the target attention information. For example, when one piece of chat information includes the target attention information "a", an information tag corresponding to the target attention information "a" will be displayed in the message display window, and when another piece of chat information includes the target attention information "B", an information tag corresponding to the target attention information "B" may also be displayed in the message display window. Optionally, if a certain chat message includes both the target attention information "a" and the target attention information "B", the message display window may simultaneously display information labels corresponding to the target attention information "a" and the target attention information "B".

And step S106, responding to the trigger operation aiming at the information label, and controlling the message display window to display the chat information containing the target attention information. In one embodiment, when a player is active in a game, the chat information displayed in the message display window is refreshed quickly, the player may not be able to view the important information in time, and at this time, the player may click an information tag corresponding to the target attention information, and the message display window may display the important information, for example, the message display window is controlled to jump from the currently displayed chat message to the important information, and the message display window or a newly created window may be controlled to only display the important information. In practical application, a game can provide a function of creating a message display window for a player, and the player can configure a new window for displaying important information by himself, so that the important information can be visually displayed through the new window on the premise of not affecting the original message display window.

The information positioning method in the game provided by the embodiment of the invention can generate the information label corresponding to the target attention information, and when the player triggers the information label, the player can jump to the chat information containing the target attention information, so that the player can conveniently and quickly search the chat information, the reading efficiency of the chat information is improved, the player can be prevented from missing the chat information containing the target attention information to a certain extent, and the experience of the player is obviously improved.

In order to facilitate understanding of the information positioning method in the game provided in the above embodiment, an embodiment of the present invention provides an implementation manner for configuring target attention information, which is shown in the following steps 1 to 2:

step 1, providing a first information configuration window through a graphical user interface, wherein the first information configuration window comprises at least one information sub-control to be selected, each information sub-control to be selected corresponds to related note information, and text content displayed by the information sub-control to be selected is attention information corresponding to the information sub-control to be selected. For convenience of understanding, an example of an application of the first information configuration window is provided in the embodiments of the present invention, and referring to a schematic diagram of the first information configuration window shown in fig. 2, for example, a plurality of sub-controls of information to be selected displayed by the first information configuration window include: 69320, ground brake, or gobo.

And 2, responding to the selection operation aiming at the information sub-control to be selected, determining a target information sub-control, and determining the attention information corresponding to the target information sub-control as the target attention information. Wherein, the selection operation may comprise a click operation and the like. With continued reference to fig. 2, assuming that the player clicks the candidate information sub-control "69320", it may be determined that the target attention information includes 69320, and when it is detected that the chat information includes the keyword 69320, tag information corresponding to the target attention information 69320 is generated. Optionally, the number of the target information sub-control may be at least one, for example, on the basis of the above example, the player may further continue to click on the information sub-control to be selected, that is, the "stars", so as to determine that the target attention information further includes the stars, and identify whether the chat information includes the keyword stars.

Optionally, the first information configuration window further includes a custom information sub-control, such as "custom add" shown in fig. 2, where the custom information control is used by the player to configure the keyword, and in one embodiment, the keyword may be configured according to the following process: (1) responding to the triggering operation aiming at the custom information sub-control, providing an information input box through a graphical user interface, wherein the information input box is used for a player to input keywords, and for example, the player can expand the information input box by clicking 'custom addition'; (2) the method includes the steps that user-defined information corresponding to first input operation is obtained in response to the first input operation aiming at an information input box, and a to-be-selected information sub-control corresponding to the user-defined information is generated.

Optionally, the first information configuration window further includes first time sub-controls to be selected, each of the first time sub-controls to be selected corresponds to a time interval, such as "all day", "8: 00-12: 00" shown in fig. 2, and the player may select the first target time sub-control from the first time sub-controls to limit the action time period of the target information sub-control by the time interval corresponding to the first target time sub-control, that is, the first target time sub-control may individually set its action time for different target information sub-controls. In one embodiment, in response to a triggering operation for the first time sub-control to be selected, the first target time sub-control may be determined, and a time interval corresponding to the first target time sub-control may be determined as the first target time interval, where the first target time interval is used to define a valid time period of the target information sub-control. For example, assuming that the target information sub-control is "69320", if the player clicks the first time sub-control "8: 00-12: 00", it is monitored whether the chat information includes "69320" in the time period of 8:00-12:00, and when important information is monitored, the corresponding information tag is provided through the message display window, and for the time (e.g. 1:00) outside the time period of 8:00-12:00, even if "69320" is included in the chat information, the message display window does not provide the information tag. In practical applications, different target information sub-controls may be configured with different or the same first target time interval, for example, the first target time interval of the target information sub-control "69320" and the first target time interval of the target information sub-control "stars" may both be 8:00-12: 00; or the first target time interval of the target information sub-control '69320' can be 8:00-12:00, and the first target time interval of the target information sub-control 'little star' can be 13:00-15: 00.

Optionally, the first information configuration window further includes a custom time sub-control, and the effective time of each target information sub-control may be set through the custom time sub-control, such as "custom" shown in fig. 2. For example, assuming that the player determines that the target information sub-control is "69320", if the player clicks the default candidate time sub-control in the game, the time input box in the custom time sub-control is in the locked state, and the player cannot fill the time interval in the time input box, and if the player clicks the custom time sub-control, the player will release the locked state of the time input box, and the player can fill the custom time interval, such as 10:00 to 12:00, in the time input box, and automatically determine the custom time interval as the first target time interval of "69320"; if the player again targets the information sub-control to be the "little stars", the player can reconfigure the first target time interval of the "little stars" by clicking the time sub-control to be selected or the time sub-control to be defined.

Based on this, the embodiment of the present invention provides an implementation manner for monitoring whether each piece of chat information includes preconfigured target attention information, and may monitor whether each piece of chat information includes preconfigured target attention information within the first target time interval. For example, only whether the chatting information includes "69320" is monitored within 8:00-12:00, and only whether the chatting information includes "asteroid" is monitored within 13:00-15: 00.

The embodiment of the present invention provides another implementation manner for configuring target attention information, which is described in the following (a) to (four):

and (I) providing a second information configuration window through a graphical user interface, wherein the second information configuration window comprises at least one candidate scheme. For convenience of understanding, an application example of the second information configuration window is provided in the embodiment of the present invention, referring to a schematic diagram of the second information configuration window shown in fig. 3, fig. 3 illustrates that the candidate scheme control includes "scheme one" to "scheme four".

And (II) responding to the selection operation aiming at the candidate scheme, and determining the target scheme, wherein the target scheme comprises at least one candidate information sub-control and a second candidate time sub-control. As shown in fig. 3, after the target solution is determined, target attention information and a second target time interval included in the target solution may be configured. Assuming that the target scenario is "scenario one", scenario one includes a plurality of candidate information sub-controls, such as "69320", "ground brake", "gobo", etc., and scenario one further includes a plurality of second candidate time sub-controls, such as "8: 00-12: 00", "12: 00-16:00 ", and the like.

And thirdly, responding to the selection operation aiming at the information sub-control to be selected, determining the target information sub-control, and determining the attention information corresponding to the target information sub-control as the target attention information. For example, if the player clicks "69320" and "ground brake", respectively, the target information subcontrol can be determined to be "69320" and "ground brake".

And (IV) responding to the selection operation aiming at the second time sub-control to be selected, determining a second target time sub-control, and determining a time interval corresponding to the second target time sub-control as a second target time interval. The second target time interval is used for limiting the effective time period of the target scheme, that is, the action time of the second target time sub-control is set for different schemes separately, and the action times of a plurality of target information sub-controls contained in the same scheme are the same. For example, if the second target time interval of the first scenario is 8:00-12:00, the monitoring of whether the chat message includes "69320" and "ground brake" is performed within 8:00-12: 00. Optionally, the embodiment of the present invention may also determine the second target time in a user-defined manner, which may specifically refer to the foregoing embodiment, and details of the embodiment of the present invention are not described again.

Based on this, the embodiment of the present invention provides another implementation manner for monitoring whether each piece of chat information includes preconfigured target attention information, and whether each piece of chat information includes the target attention information may be monitored based on a target scheme in a second target time interval. For example, if the target time interval is 8:00-12:00, the chat information is monitored only in 8:00-12:00, and when the chat information containing the target attention information is monitored, the information tag corresponding to the target attention information is generated, for example, when the chat information contains 69320, the information tag corresponding to 69320 is generated, and when the chat information contains ground brake, the corresponding information tag is generated. By means of the mode, unnecessary disturbance to the player in the non-target time interval can be avoided, and game experience of the player is further improved.

In one embodiment, different second time intervals may be set for different schemes, for example, the second target time interval of the first scheme is 8:00-12:00, and the second time interval of the second scheme is 12:00-16:00, so that different schemes are executed at different time intervals to more flexibly monitor the chat information.

In addition, considering that when the number of the information tags provided by the graphical user interface is large, the information tags can shield the sight of the player and are not beneficial to the operation of the player, the priority of the target attention information and the maximum number of the information tags provided by the graphical user interface can be configured, so that the tag information with the maximum number of the tags can be selected from high to low according to the priority to be displayed, and the condition that the sight of the player is shielded by the information tags is avoided. In addition, the display time limit of the target attention information can be configured, the display time limit is used for limiting the time length for providing the information label by the message display window, and the information label disappears when the display time length is reached, so that the sight line blocking caused by long-time display of the information label can be avoided.

Optionally, the control ordering of the target information sub-controls may be adjusted in response to a dragging operation for at least one target information sub-control, and then the priority of the target attention information corresponding to the target information sub-controls is determined based on the control ordering. For understanding, referring to another schematic diagram of the second information configuration window shown in fig. 4, a player may drag a target information sub-control, so as to adjust the control order of the target information sub-control, where the priority of the target information sub-control at the front is higher than that of the target information sub-control at the back, for example, drag the target information sub-control "asteroid" to the front of the target information sub-control "69320", where the priority of the target attention information asteroid is higher than that of the target attention information 69320, and when the information label data is greater than the maximum label number of information labels provided by the graphical user interface, preferentially select an information label corresponding to the target attention information with higher priority to display.

In the configuration process of the target attention information provided by the embodiment of the invention, a player can click and edit the to-be-selected information sub-control, so that the keywords are selected and sequenced, and the player can click the to-be-selected time sub-control, so that the time interval is selected and sequenced. Therefore, the personalized setting of the player is met, the keywords can be subjected to priority ranking, and the simultaneous occurrence of important information corresponding to a plurality of keywords is avoided. And through setting up the target time interval, can select different keyword warning schemes to different time intervals, satisfy player's diversified demand.

To facilitate understanding of the step S104, an example of an application for providing an information label corresponding to target attention information in a message display window through a graphical user interface is provided in the embodiments of the present invention, and referring to the schematic diagram of a graphical user interface shown in fig. 5, the graphical user interface includes a message display window, and at least one information label, for example, an "69320 team" label and a "6 star brake team" label, is displayed above the message display window. In practical applications, the first information amount of the target attention information is at least one, and for each target attention information, when the information tag corresponding to the target attention information is provided through the graphical user interface, the amount of the chat information collected by the information tag is at least one, for example, the "69320 team" tag corresponds to 10 important pieces of information, and the "6 star brake team" tag corresponds to one important piece of information.

In addition, the information tag includes a tag name, a number of the chat messages collected by the information tag, and a ranking of the currently viewed/displayed chat messages in the number, such as a schematic diagram of an information tag shown in fig. 6, wherein the number identifier indicates the ranking of the currently viewed/displayed chat messages in the number, the total number of messages is the number of the chat messages collected by the information tag, for example, the currently displayed important message is located in the 2 nd item of all important messages including the target attention message "69320", and all important messages are 10 in total. In practical applications, different chat messages containing the same target attention information may be called as the same type of important information, and for a plurality of important information of the same type, the graphical user interface may display only one information label and superimpose the information label on the number displayed in the second information amount, and the player may sequentially view each important information by clicking the information label.

In addition, when the information tag corresponding to the target attention information is provided in the message display window through the graphical user interface, the situation that the player is shielded by too many information tags is not avoided, the tag to be displayed can be selected from the information tags in combination with the priority of the target attention information provided in the foregoing embodiment, and only the tag to be displayed is provided through the message display window, so that the problem is solved. In an alternative embodiment, see steps a through c below:

step a, judging whether the number of the labels of the information labels corresponding to the target attention information exceeds a preset number (namely, the maximum number of the labels). If yes, executing step b; if not, determining each target attention information as the attention information to be displayed, and providing an information label corresponding to each target attention information through a graphical user interface. For example, the user configures 5 target attention information "69320", "asteroid", "6-star braking", "gobo" and "ghost catching", where the preset number is 2, and if the monitored N chat messages include the above 5 target attention information, since the graphical user interface provides 2 information tags at most, it is determined that the number of tags exceeds the preset number.

And b, determining the display priority of the information label based on the priority of each target attention information. In one embodiment, the priority of the target attention information may be used as the presentation priority of the corresponding information tag.

And c, displaying the information label on the message display window according to the display priority.
