The terminal device in this embodiment provides the graphical user interface of the game. Referring to the schematic diagram of a graphical user interface shown in FIG. first avatar. Wherein, the first character may generally be a virtual character controlled by a player through a terminal device.

In addition, the graphical user interface in this embodiment may also include other virtual characters besides the first virtual character. That is, assuming that there are 100 virtual characters in a game, the graphical user interface may display other virtual characters within the visual range of the first virtual character controlled by the player. If the game is a first-person game, the GUI may not display the first virtual character controlled by the player; if the game is a third-person game, the GUI displays the first virtual character controlled by the player.

Based on the above description, referring to the flowchart of a marking method for virtual characters in a game shown in Figure 3, the marking method for virtual characters in this game includes the following steps:

Step S302, in response to a preset game event, provide a mark control on the GUI, and the mark control is used to prompt at least one second virtual character corresponding to the game event.

In this embodiment, multiple game events can be preset. If a preset game event occurs during the game, the terminal device can respond to the game event and provide a marker control corresponding to the game event on the GUI. Wherein, the preset event may be an event that the first virtual character controlled by the player is attacked, or the virtual character is killed in the game.

The marking control is used to prompt at least one second virtual character corresponding to the game event, and the second virtual character may be a virtual character different from the first virtual character, or may be the first virtual character. Here, the second avatar is an avatar different from the first avatar. For example, if the preset event is that the first avatar controlled by the player is attacked, the second avatar may be the avatar attacking the first avatar. character; if the preset event is an event in which a virtual character is killed, the second virtual character may be a virtual character that kills other virtual characters.

Step S304, in response to the touch operation acting on the marking control, determine that the second virtual character corresponding to the touch operation is the target virtual character, and generate a first identifier corresponding to the target virtual character.

The marking control is used to prompt at least one second virtual character corresponding to the game event, and the player can select one or more second virtual characters through the touch operation acting on the marking control, and use the selected second virtual character as the target virtual character, And generate the first identification corresponding to the target virtual character, wherein,

For example, avatar A and avatar B kill other avatars respectively, triggering a game event, and the terminal device can respond to the game event by providing a marker control on the GUI, and the marker control corresponds to avatar A and avatar B. The player can select the virtual character B as the target virtual character through a touch operation acting on the marking control.

Step S306, in response to the target virtual character appearing in the field of view of the first virtual character, displaying the target virtual character and the first identification on the GUI.

After the target avatar is determined, if the target avatar appears in the field of view of the first avatar during the game, the target avatar and the first logo can be displayed on the graphical user interface of the terminal device to achieve specific goals The virtual character is marked and displayed to improve the user's experience during the game. Wherein, it may be displayed within the field of view of the first virtual character, or may be displayed on a map or mini-map of the game, which is not limited in this embodiment.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for marking virtual characters in a game. During the process of the game, the terminal device can respond to the preset game events that occur, and provide a corresponding marking control on the graphical user interface. The marking control can be used for The target game character corresponding to the game event is marked, and the target virtual character and the first identification corresponding to the target virtual character can be displayed on the graphical user interface. In this way, when a preset game event occurs during the game, regardless of whether the target virtual character is within the field of vision of the first virtual character, the terminal device can mark and display the specific target virtual character through the marking control, which can improve The experience of the game.

Figure 4 is a flow chart of another method for marking virtual characters in a game in an optional embodiment. In this embodiment, it is specifically expressed in response to the touch operation acting on the marking control, and determining the second corresponding to the touch operation. The virtual character is the specific implementation steps of the target virtual character, and the marking method of the virtual character in the game in the optional embodiment includes the following steps:

Step S402, in response to a preset game event, provide a mark control on the GUI, and the mark control is used to prompt at least one second virtual character corresponding to the game event.

The game event in this embodiment can be set by the game developer or by the player. Specifically, the preset game events in this embodiment include at least: an attack event acting on the first virtual character, or a killing event in the game. For example, if the first avatar controlled by the player is attacked by other avatars, it is considered that an attack on the first avatar has occurred; when other avatars kill another avatar, it is considered that an event in the game has occurred. kill event.

Among them, the attack event of the first virtual character has nothing to do with whether the first virtual character receives damage. For example, some games have a game square setting, and virtual characters can interact in the game square before the game starts, including attacking each other. Interactions within the square do no damage. Therefore, if the first avatar is attacked by other avatars in the game square, the first avatar will not be harmed, but at this time it is considered that the first avatar is attacked.

When the preset game event is an attack event acting on the first avatar, a mark control can be provided on the GUI through the following steps: in response to the number of occurrences of the attack event reaching the first threshold, on the GUI A mark control is provided, and the mark control is used to prompt the second virtual character attacking the first virtual character.

Wherein, the first threshold can be set by a game developer or by a player. The number of occurrences of the attack event may be the number of times a specified virtual character attacks the first virtual character, or may be the sum of the number of times multiple virtual characters attack the first virtual character, which is not limited in this embodiment.

When the preset game event is a kill event in the game, a mark control can be provided on the GUI through the following steps: in response to the number of kills corresponding to the kill event reaching the second threshold, provide a mark control on the GUI A mark control, the mark control is used to prompt the second virtual character involved in killing.

Wherein, the second threshold can be set by the game developer, and can also be set by the player. The number of kill events can be the total number of kills in a game, or the number of kills of a virtual character, which is not limited in this embodiment.

Step S404, in response to the first sub-operation acting on the marking control, displaying a character identifier used to refer to the second virtual character corresponding to the game event in the GUI.

The touch operation in the embodiment of the present invention may include a first sub-operation and a second sub-operation, and the player may display in the graphical user interface through the first sub-operation the character identification used to refer to the second virtual character corresponding to the game event For example, the operation of the player clicking the mark control can be used as the first sub-operation, and after the player clicks the identification control, the terminal device can display the character identification of at least one second virtual character corresponding to the game event in the graphical user interface.

Step S406, in response to the second sub-operation continuous with the first sub-operation, determine at least one target character ID from the displayed character IDs according to the second sub-operation, and determine the second avatar corresponding to the target avatar ID as the target avatar Role.

The second sub-operation is an operation continuous with the first sub-operation, and the second sub-operation is used to select at least one of the character identifications displayed in the graphical user interface, and the terminal device can target the second virtual character corresponding to the selected role identification a virtual character, and generate a first identifier corresponding to the target virtual character.

For example, the second virtual characters A, B, and C kill other virtual characters, triggering a game event (killing event in the game), the terminal device can respond to the above game event, and provide a marking control on the GUI, The player may perform the first sub-operation of clicking the mark control, and the terminal device displays the character identifications of the second virtual characters A, B, and C in the graphical user interface. Wherein, the character identifier may be an avatar or a name, which is not limited in this embodiment.

After the terminal device displays the role identification of the second virtual character A, B, C, if the player wants to display the first identification of the second virtual character A, B, the player can click on the role identification of the second virtual character A, B In the second sub-operation, the terminal device can determine the second virtual character A, B as the target virtual character, and generate the first identification of the second virtual character A, B.

Specifically, the terminal device may respond to the first sub-operation acting on the marking control through the following steps, and display the character identification used to refer to the second virtual character corresponding to the game event in the graphical user interface: in response to the first sub-operation Operation, obtain the game data of the second virtual character corresponding to the game event; based on the game data, determine at least one target second virtual character from the second virtual character, and arrange and display in the graphical user interface for referring to the target second virtual character The role ID of the avatar.

The terminal device may determine and display the character identifications of the target second virtual character in a graphical user interface according to the game data of the second virtual character. Wherein, the game data may be obtained from a server or from a terminal device of other virtual characters, which is not limited in this embodiment.

The game data in this embodiment includes the number of attacks by the second virtual character on the first virtual character, and/or the number of kills achieved by the second virtual character in the game. If the preset game event is an attack event acting on the first virtual character, the game data can be the number of times the second virtual character attacks the first virtual character; if the preset game event is a killing event in the game, Then the game data may be the number of kills obtained by the second virtual character in the game.

Step S408, generating a first identifier corresponding to the target virtual character.

The first identification in this embodiment can be of various types, for example, the danger level of the target avatar is different (the danger level can be determined by the number of other avatars killed by the target avatar), and the first identification is different; or, the target The number of times the virtual character attacks the first virtual character is different, and the first identification is different.

For example, the first identification corresponding to the target virtual character can be generated through the following steps: the first identification corresponding to the target virtual character is generated based on the game data of the target virtual character; The number of attacks of a virtual character, and/or the number of kills achieved by the target virtual character in the game.

The game data may record the number of times the target virtual character attacks the first virtual character or the number of kills the target virtual character obtains in the game, so the first identifier corresponding to the target virtual character may be generated according to the game data of the target virtual character.

In addition, if the identified target avatar is killed, eliminated, or other players rank higher than the marked target avatar, the first identification of the target avatar can be modified, for example: if the target avatar’s game data An adjustment occurs, based on the adjusted game data of the target avatar, the first identifier is deleted or modified; wherein, the adjustment of the game data of the target avatar includes: the target avatar is killed or the game ranking of the target avatar is surpassed by other avatars .

If the marked target avatar is killed, eliminated, or other players rank higher than the marked target avatar, the game data of the target avatar will be adjusted. Therefore, the terminal device can delete or modify the first identification according to the adjusted game data of the target virtual character. For example, if the target virtual character is killed, the first identification can be deleted; A flag can be modified.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the specified target avatar can be marked, or the target avatar with a specified ranking can be marked, for example: the target avatar named XXX can be marked, or the number of kills can be ranked No. One's avatar is marked as the target avatar.

Wherein, if the designated target virtual character is marked, the first mark can be deleted or prompted to mark again if the target virtual character is killed. If the target avatar of the specified ranking is marked, when the avatar 1 originally in the ranking is overtaken by other avatars 2, then other avatars 2 can be used as target avatars to mark other avatars 2.

Step S410, in response to the target virtual character appearing in the field of vision of the first virtual character, displaying the target virtual character and the first logo on the GUI.

The display manner of the first logo can be directly displayed on the role model, for example: displaying the model of the target virtual character on the graphical user interface; displaying the first logo at a designated position of the model of the target virtual character.

Referring to FIG. 5 for a schematic diagram of another graphical user interface, the first identifications of the target virtual characters X and Y can be displayed at designated positions (above the heads) of the target virtual characters X and Y respectively.
