In the embodiment of the disclosure, firstly, a method for game interaction is provided, which overcomes the defect that the game battle area cannot be defined in the related art at least to a certain extent.

Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of a method of game interaction in an embodiment of the present disclosure, and an execution subject of the method of game interaction may be a game server that processes game interaction operations.

Referring to fig. 1, a method of game interaction according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes the steps of:

step S110, responding to touch operation aiming at the game picture, and acquiring touch information generated by the touch operation;

step S120, generating a designated combat area according to the touch information; designating a fighting area for indicating a fighting range of the target virtual character; the target virtual character comprises a first virtual character and a virtual character which is in the same game formation with the first virtual character;

in step S130, a designated combat zone is displayed to prompt the target virtual character to enter the designated combat zone for game combat.

In the technical solution provided in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, on one hand, touch information generated by touch operation is acquired in response to the touch operation on the game screen, and a designated combat area (for indicating the combat range of the target virtual character) is generated according to the touch information, so that a new game interaction manner is provided, and a player can customize the combat range of a game according to his own idea, thereby improving the game interest. On the other hand, the appointed combat area is displayed to prompt the target virtual characters (the target virtual characters comprise the first virtual characters and the virtual characters in the same game formation with the first virtual characters) to enter the appointed combat area to carry out game combat, compared with the combat in the whole game scene, the activity range is reduced, part of players are prevented from falling behind and being far away from the team, and the players in the same game formation can be helped in time.

The following describes the specific implementation of each step in fig. 1 in detail:

in the present disclosure, a graphical user interface may be provided through a display screen of the terminal device, where the graphical user interface includes a game screen corresponding to the first virtual character.

The terminal device may be various electronic devices having a display screen and supporting web browsing, including but not limited to a smart phone, a tablet computer, a laptop portable computer, a desktop computer, and the like.

A Graphical User Interface (GUI) refers to a computer operation User Interface displayed in a graphical manner, is a dialogue Interface between a computer and a User thereof, and is an important component of a computer system. It allows players to interact with electronic devices not through text interfaces, typed command tags, or text, but through icons and visual indicators (e.g., secondary symbol cues).

The first virtual character may be a virtual game character currently played by the master player.

The game screen may be a display screen including a game scene and three-dimensional virtual objects located in the game scene, where the game scene may be an environment (e.g., sky, road), a building (building), a machine, a prop, and the like in the game. The three-dimensional virtual object may refer to a building, a mountain model, or the like in a game scene.

In step S110, touch information generated by the touch operation is acquired in response to the touch operation on the game screen.

In this step, after entering the game screen, a start control with a range definition may be provided in the game screen, and if a click operation (e.g., a single click or a double click operation) for the start control is detected, a range definition mode may be entered, and then the current master player may perform a touch operation on the game screen to define the fighting range of the game according to his own idea.

The touch operation of the player on the game screen may be a fixed point operation, for example: the player performs a plurality of independent clicking operations at different positions in the game picture, wherein the different positions can be located on the outer surface of the three-dimensional virtual object and/or located in other areas (for example, on a virtual ground in the game scene) except for the area where the three-dimensional virtual object is located in the game scene. Correspondingly, the touch information generated by the touch operation may be a first touch point located on the outer surface of the three-dimensional virtual object, and/or a second touch point located in another area except the area where the three-dimensional virtual object is located in the game scene.

It should be noted that, specific ways of pointing may include: the touch control point can be set by itself according to the actual situation by directly clicking in the game scene through a finger to input the touch control point, by clicking in the game scene through a mouse or a touch control pen to input the touch control point, and the like, and the method is not particularly limited by the disclosure.

In an alternative embodiment, during the pointing process, the player can also select to zoom the game scene by two fingers or mouse touch, for example: the scene is enlarged by sliding the two fingers outwards, and the scene is reduced by sliding the two fingers inwards, so that a player can conveniently input a plurality of touch points which are positioned at different positions and have any distance according to own ideas.

In an alternative embodiment, after the player inputs the touch point, a "position adjustment" control icon may be provided, so that the player may click the "position adjustment" control icon to adjust the position of the touch point again, so that the designated combat area generated subsequently has a higher matching degree with the expected result of the player.

In an optional embodiment, a "fixed point completion button" may be further provided, and after the player's fixed point is finished, the "fixed point completion button" may be clicked, and further, the server may determine the number of touch points according to the received touch information, and if the number of touch points is less than 3 (i.e. a closed delineation range cannot be generated subsequently), a prompt message may be returned to the player, for example: "fixed point invalid please re-enter" to ensure that the player's fixed point count can generate a valid delineation scope.

In an optional embodiment, after determining that the number of the touch points is not less than 3, it may be determined whether the touch points input by the player are located on the same straight line, and if the touch points are located on the same straight line (i.e., a closed delineation range cannot be generated subsequently), a prompt message, such as "fixed point invalid and please re-input", may be returned to the player so that the player can re-fix the point.

In step S120, a designated combat area is generated according to the touch information.

In this step, after the touch information generated by the touch operation is acquired, a designated combat area may be generated according to the touch information. The designated combat zone is used for limiting the combat range of the target virtual character, so that the target virtual character (such as the first virtual character and the virtual character in the same game formation with the first virtual character) can only act in the adjusted designated combat zone, thereby reducing the active ranges of a plurality of players belonging to the same combat team and avoiding problems such as falling of the players.

In this step, when the touch information is at least 3 first touch points located on the surface of the three-dimensional virtual object, refer to fig. 2, where fig. 2 shows a flowchart for generating a designated combat zone in the embodiment of the present disclosure, and the method includes steps S201 to S202:

in step S201, a reference area is determined according to at least three first touch points.

In this step, reference may be made to fig. 3, where fig. 3 shows a flowchart of determining a reference region in the embodiment of the present disclosure, and the method includes steps S301 to S302:

in step S301, each first touch point is connected to the remaining first touch points by a line with a preset radian to obtain a reference pattern.

In this step, each first touch point may be connected to the remaining first touch points by a line with a preset radian to obtain a reference pattern, where the line with the preset radian may be a straight line, a curve with a radian, and the like, and may be set by itself according to an actual situation, which is not particularly limited by this disclosure.

In step S302, a closed region having the largest area is selected from the reference pattern as a reference region.

In this step, in an optional implementation manner, when the number of the at least 3 first touch points is 3, after each first touch point is connected to other first touch points, a maximum closed region not including any intersecting line may be formed, and thus, a reference pattern formed after the connection may be directly determined as the reference region.

In another optional implementation manner, when the number of the at least 3 first touch points is greater than 3, for example: fig. 4A may be referred to, and fig. 4A illustrates a schematic diagram of a reference region determined in an embodiment of the present disclosure, where a peripheral cone is shown as a three-dimensional virtual object, and 1-5 are shown as the first touch points, and after each first touch point is connected to other first touch points, it is known that an obtained reference pattern includes a cross line, that is, includes a plurality of closed small regions, so that a closed region with a largest area (that is, a shaded portion with the largest area in the figure, a region surrounded by 1-5-4-2-3-1) may be selected from the reference pattern as the reference region.

Referring next to fig. 2, in step S202, the boundary line of the reference area is mapped to the three-dimensional virtual object surface, and the designated combat area is obtained according to the mapped boundary line.

In this step, the boundary line of the reference area may be mapped to the surface of the three-dimensional virtual object, and the designated combat area may be obtained according to the mapped boundary line. For example, fig. 4B may be referred to, and fig. 4B shows a schematic diagram of the designated combat zone generated in the embodiment of the present disclosure, and specifically shows a schematic diagram of the designated combat zone obtained after mapping the reference pattern formed in fig. 4A onto the surface of the three-dimensional virtual object, as can be seen from fig. 4B, the present disclosure can avoid cutting the three-dimensional virtual object, and the like, ensure the feasibility and effectiveness of the finally generated combat zone, and can determine the designated combat zone with high limitation, thereby improving the game interest.

It should be noted that after the boundary line of the reference area is mapped to the surface of the three-dimensional virtual object, it may also be determined whether the interior of the three-dimensional virtual object is a movable area, and in an alternative embodiment, if the three-dimensional virtual object is an entity model (e.g., a mountain model) whose interior is not movable, the area of the mapped boundary line on the outer surface of the mountain model may be determined as the designated combat area. In another alternative embodiment, if the three-dimensional virtual object is a model (e.g., a building model) whose interior can be moved, the area of the mapped boundary line inside the building model may be determined as the designated combat area.

It should be noted that, when the touch information is second touch points located in other areas (for example, a plurality of second touch points located on the ground) except the area where the three-dimensional virtual object is located in the game scene, the second touch points may be directly connected by a line with a preset radian to form a plane battle range located on the ground and having no height.

When the touch information includes a first touch point located on the outer surface of the three-dimensional virtual object and a second touch point located in another area except the area where the three-dimensional virtual object is located in the game scene, for example: when 2 first touch points and 1 second touch point are included, the 3 touch points can be connected to obtain a reference graph, and then a closed area with the largest area can be selected from the reference graph to serve as a reference area. Further, an intersection point between the reference area and an outer surface of the three-dimensional virtual object may be obtained, the first target area may be mapped to a surface of the three-dimensional virtual object with reference to the execution steps of the steps S201 to S203 according to the 2 first touch points and the intersection point for a first target area falling inside the three-dimensional virtual model, so as to obtain a first fighting area, and the second target area falling outside the three-dimensional virtual model may be horizontally mapped to a virtual ground in a game scene, so as to obtain a second fighting area having no height, so that the first fighting area and the second fighting area may be determined as the generated designated fighting area.

Referring next to fig. 1, in step S130, a designated combat area is displayed to prompt the target virtual character to enter the designated combat area for game play.

In this step, after the designated combat zone is generated, in an alternative embodiment, the designated combat zone may be displayed on a client of a game player corresponding to the first virtual character (i.e., the current master player) and a game player corresponding to a virtual character in the same game play as the first virtual character (i.e., a teammate player of the current master player). In another alternative embodiment, the designated combat area may be displayed on a game map. In yet another alternative embodiment, the designated combat zone may be displayed in synchronization with the client of the player and the game map.

The designated combat zone may be displayed in a differentiated manner, for example, by thickening, highlighting or differentiating the boundary line thereof with a color different from that of the other zone, so as to attract the attention of the player and facilitate the player to adjust the combat strategy in time.

In an alternative embodiment, after displaying the designated combat zone, a timing control may be displayed at the player terminal, where the timing control is used to prompt the current master player and its teammate player to control the remaining time for the target virtual character selected by the current master player to enter the designated combat zone, and, for example, a prompt message "such as: please reach the designated combat zone within 10 seconds ", and further, if the target virtual character reaches the designated combat zone within a preset time period, a reward may be sent to the target virtual character, for example: awarding gold coins, points and the like, and if the target virtual character does not reach the designated combat area within the preset time length, punishing can be carried out on the target virtual character, for example: the integral is reduced, and the integral can be set according to the actual situation, which is not limited in the present disclosure.

In an alternative embodiment, the designated combat zone may be narrowed at intervals of a preset duration to achieve a game effect that the security of the character is guaranteed only when the player is in the delineation zone.

In an alternative embodiment, after the designated combat zone is generated, the current master player or the teammate player who is in the same game formation with the current master player may further adjust the shape of the designated combat zone, specifically, a "combat zone adjustment" control may be provided, and further, after the player clicks the control, the boundary line of the designated combat zone may be manually adjusted, for example: and adjusting the radian of the boundary line to obtain the adjusted designated combat area. Furthermore, a 'battle area effective' control can be provided on the game interface, when the player clicks the control, the adjustment can be determined to be effective, and further, relevant prompt information can be sent to the current master player and players of teammates thereof to remind the current master player and the players of teammates of the current master player to enter the designated battle area for battle.

It should be noted that after the player clicks the "combat zone adjustment" control, the player can hide the three-dimensional virtual object in the game scene, so that the player can visually see which touch point is adjusted, and compare the touch point with the path and area of the designated combat zone before adjustment, so as to better match the adjustment intention.

In an alternative embodiment, the present disclosure may further collect the area of the designated combat zone and the radian of each boundary line of the designated combat zone after the player adjusts, and then automatically adjust the designated combat zone according to the correspondence between the area and the radian. Specifically, referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating automatic adjustment of a designated combat zone, including steps S501 to S503:

in step S501, the area of the designated combat zone is acquired; and acquiring the radian of each boundary line of the adjusted designated combat area.

In this step, the area of the designated combat zone formed by a plurality of different players when the combat zone is defined by themselves during the running of the game and the radian of each boundary line of the designated combat zone after each player performs manual adjustment can be collected. For example, the position of each boundary line of the adjusted designated combat zone in the game scene, the relationship between the boundary line and a horizontal line in the game scene, and the like can be collected to clarify the characteristics of each boundary line.

In step S502, a correspondence table of the area and the radian is stored.

In this step, a correspondence table of the area and the radian may be stored, for example: radian R1, R2, R3 of each boundary line when area is S1; the radian of each boundary line when the area is S2R 4, R5, R6. For example, the corresponding relationship table may further specifically store the characteristics of each boundary line, and may be set by itself according to an actual situation, which is not particularly limited in this disclosure.

In step S503, after a preset time period, the designated combat zone is automatically adjusted according to the correspondence table.

In this step, after a preset time period (for example, after the method in the present disclosure is online for one month, or when the data stored in the correspondence table reaches a certain amount, the data can be set by itself according to the actual situation), the designated combat area can be automatically adjusted according to the correspondence table. By collecting the area of the designated combat zone and the radian of each boundary line of the designated combat zone after being adjusted by the player, the designated combat zone meeting the requirements of the player can be conveniently and rapidly generated in the follow-up process, the operation times of the player are reduced, and the generation efficiency of the designated combat zone is improved.

According to the game interaction method and the game interaction device, the player interacts in the game scene, on one hand, a new game interaction mode is provided, the game battle area with height limitation can be defined according to the idea of the player, and the interestingness of the game is improved. On the other hand, for battle in the whole game scene, the activity range is reduced, partial players are prevented from falling behind and being far away from the team, and the players in the same game formation can conveniently rescue in time.
