The components of the embodiments of the present disclosure, as described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings herein, can generally be arranged and designed in a variety of different configurations. Thus, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, as provided in the accompanying drawings, is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure, rather is merely representative of selected embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments, which can be derived by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without making any creative effort, shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
In a game from a third person's visual angle, the orientation of the virtual object controlled by the user is generally consistent with the visual angle direction of the picture displayed on the screen, in which case it is difficult for the user to perceive the distance between the controlled virtual object and other virtual objects, and thus, it can easily happen that other virtual objects are beyond the range of attack of the virtual object controlled by the user when the user is controlling the virtual object to attack other virtual objects with melee weapons, so that the virtual object controlled by the user fails to hit other virtual objects, which lowers the user experience.
According to a virtual object control method and apparatus, a computer device and a storage medium provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, a virtual scene and a first virtual object controlled by a current client may be first displayed in a display interface of a terminal device; wherein a first pose of the first virtual object in the virtual scene is linked with a second pose of a virtual camera in the virtual scene; then, after a target trigger operation is responded, a target virtual object for interaction with the first virtual object is determined, and based on a third pose of the target virtual object and the first pose of the first virtual object, movement: information of the first virtual object is determined, so that subsequent to controlling the first virtual object to make a movement according to the movement information, it can be guaranteed that the target virtual object is located within the interaction range of the interactive action to be performed by the first virtual object, and accordingly, the first virtual object can be controlled to successfully perform an interactive action corresponding to the target trigger operation on the target virtual object after the movement is finished.
Furthermore, after the target triggering operation is responded, the linkage relationship between the first orientation of the first pose and the second orientation of the second pose can be suspended, so that the visual angle of the picture displayed on the display interface cannot be rotated along with the rotation of the first orientation of the first virtual object, which avoids, to a certain extent, the problem that the visual angle of the picture rotates too fast, and the distance between the first virtual object and the target virtual object and the action details of the first virtual object can be better observed by the user from other angles, thereby improving the display effect.
Based on the above studies, the present disclosure provides a virtual object control method and apparatus, a computer device and a storage medium, in which a virtual scene and a first virtual object controlled by a current client may be first displayed in a display interface of a terminal device; wherein a first pose of the first virtual object in the virtual scene is linked with a second pose of a virtual camera in the virtual scene; then, after a target trigger operation is responded, a target virtual object for interaction with the first virtual object is determined, and based on a third pose of the target virtual object and the first pose of the first virtual object, movement information of the first virtual object is determined, so that subsequent to controlling the first virtual object to make a movement according to the movement information, it can be guaranteed that the target virtual object is located within the interaction range of the interactive action to be performed by the first virtual object, and accordingly, the first virtual object can be controlled to successfully perform an interactive action corresponding to the target trigger operation on the target virtual object after the movement is finished.
Furthermore, after the target triggering operation is responded, the linkage relationship between the first orientation of the first pose and the second orientation of the second pose can be suspended, so that the visual angle of the picture displayed on the display interface cannot be rotated along with the rotation of the first orientation of the first virtual object, which avoids, to a certain extent, the problem that the visual angle of the picture rotates too fast, and the distance between the first virtual object and the target virtual object and the action details of the first virtual object can be better observed by the user from other angles, thereby improving the display effect.

To facilitate understanding of the present embodiments, a virtual object control method as disclosed in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be first described in detail. The execution subject of the virtual object control method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is usually a terminal device, which is, for example, a tablet computer, a personal computer, a smart phone, a virtual reality/augmented reality device, and the like. In some possible implementations, the virtual object control method may be implemented by a processor calling computer-readable instructions stored in a memory.
Referring to
Step 101, displaying a virtual scene and a first virtual object controlled by a current client in a display interface of a terminal device; wherein a first pose of the first virtual object in the virtual scene is linked with a second pose of a virtual camera in the virtual scene;
Step 102, in response to a target trigger operation determining a target virtual object which satisfies a preset interactive condition in the virtual scene based on the first pose of the first virtual object; and, suspending the linkage relationship between a first orientation of the first pose and a second orientation of the second pose;
Step 103, determining movement information of the first virtual object based on a third pose of the target virtual object and the first pose; and
Step 104, controlling the first virtual object to make a movement according to the movement information, and controlling the first virtual object to perform an interactive action corresponding to the target trigger operation on the target virtual object after the movement is finished.
Below are detailed descriptions of the above steps:
For Step 101,
Specifically, as shown in
The first pose may include a first position and a first orientation, the second pose may include a second position and a second orientation, the first position may be a three-dimensional coordinate of the first virtual object in the virtual scene, and the second position may be a three-dimensional coordinate of the second virtual object in the virtual scene.
A first pose of the first virtual object in the virtual scene being linked with a second pose of a virtual camera in the virtual scene means that there is a preset relative positional relationship between the first position of the first virtual object and the second position of the virtual camera have, for example, the first virtual object can be in the direction of 45 degrees on the front left of the virtual camera and with a distance of 1 meter from the virtual camera; and, the first orientation rotates with the rotation of the second orientation (or the second orientation rotates with the rotation of the first orientation). For example, when the first virtual object is controlled to move 5 meters to the left, the virtual camera will move 5 meters to the left therewith, and when the second orientation of the virtual camera is controlled to rotate 10 degrees clockwise, the first orientation of the first virtual object will rotate 10 degrees clockwise therewith.
Here, as shown in
For Step 102,
Specifically, the target trigger operation is used to control the first virtual object to perform an interactive action corresponding to the target trigger operation, wherein the target trigger operation may be a trigger operation on a target button, for example, as shown in
The preset interactive condition may include a display position condition of the virtual object, an attribute condition of the virtual object, etc., wherein the display position condition may be, for example, within a target area, within the first distance range from the first position of the first virtual object, etc., and the attribute condition may be, for example, that the attribute information of the virtual object includes a target attribute (e.g., “enemy” or “task”).
After the linkage relationship between a first orientation of the first pose and a second orientation of the second pose is suspended, the second orientation remains unchanged, for example, as shown in
In a possible implementation, the preset interactive condition is that in the case of being within a first distance range from the first position of the first virtual object, in determining a target virtual object which satisfies a preset interactive condition in the virtual scene based on the first pose of the first virtual object, a plurality of second virtual objects included in the virtual scene may be first determined, then distances between the plurality of second virtual objects and the first virtual object may be calculated respectively according to the positions of the plurality of second virtual objects and the first position, and then the second virtual object whose distance is within the first distance range may be taken as the target virtual object.
Illustratively, if the distances between the second virtual objects and the first virtual object are respectively 70 meters, 10 meters and 50 meters, and if the first distance range is within 30 meters, the second virtual object corresponding to the distance of 10 meters is determined as the target virtual object.
By adopting this method, a second virtual object with a smaller distance from the first virtual object may be determined as the target virtual object and an interactive action is performed.
Here, if there are a plurality of second virtual objects that satisfy the preset interactive condition, the target virtual object may be further screened out from the plurality of second virtual objects. Therefore, in another possible implementation, when determining a target virtual object which satisfies a preset interactive condition in the virtual scene based on the first pose of the first virtual object, the following steps A1 to A3 may be adopted:
A1, determining, from a plurality of second virtual objects included in the virtual scene, candidate virtual objects located within a first distance range from the first position of the first virtual object;
Specifically, distances between the plurality of second virtual objects and the first virtual object may be calculated respectively according to the positions of the plurality of second virtual objects and the first position, and then the second virtual object whose distance is within the first distance range may be taken as a candidate virtual object.
A2, determining a target angle between a third orientation of each candidate virtual object relative to the virtual camera and the second orientation.
Herein, the third orientation is namely a direction in which the virtual camera points to the candidate virtual object. For example, a central point of each virtual object may be preset, and then a direction in which the virtual camera points to the central point of the candidate virtual object may be taken as the third orientation.
A3, determining the target virtual object from the candidate virtual objects based on the target angle.
Specifically, the sizes of the target angles may be compared first, and then the candidate virtual object with the smallest target angle may be determined as the target virtual object. Illustratively, if the target angles corresponding to the candidate virtual objects are 10 degrees, 20 degrees or 30 degrees respectively, the candidate virtual object with a corresponding target angle of 10 degrees is determined as the target virtual object.
By adopting this method, the candidate virtual object having a smaller angle with the second orientation of the virtual camera can be screened out from the plurality of candidate virtual objects to serve as the target virtual object, so that the candidate virtual object which is displayed in the display interface and which is closest to the center is perceived as the target virtual object by the user, which better conforms with the habit of the user and improves the user experience.
Here, if the target virtual object is located out of the visual angle range of the virtual camera, the situation will occur in which a second virtual object not shown in the display interface is determined as the target virtual object, thereby affecting the user experience, and therefore, in a possible embodiment, the preset interactive condition may further include: only the second virtual object which is located within the visual angle range corresponding to the second orientation of the virtual camera, namely that displayed on the display interface of the terminal device, may be determined as the target virtual object.
Specifically, the candidate virtual object having the target angle within a preset angle range may be determined as the target virtual object, for example, the target angles corresponding to the candidate virtual objects are respectively 10 degrees, 50 degrees, and 60 degrees, if the preset angle range is 0 to 45 degrees, the candidate virtual object corresponding to 10 degrees is determined as the target virtual object. Here, if none of the target angles corresponding to the candidate virtual objects is within the preset angle range, it is determined that the target virtual object does not exist.
In a possible implementation, subsequent to suspending the linkage relationship between a first orientation of the first pose and a second orientation of the second pose, the second orientation may be further adjusted in response to a target slide operation to cause the display device to display the first virtual object at a different angle.
Specifically, after the target slide operation is performed on the display interface, the sliding direction of the target slide operation may be determined first, the camera rotation angle corresponding to the sliding direction may be determined, and then the second orientation may be updated according to the camera rotation angle. For example, if the user slides 1 cm to the left on the display interface, it may be determined that the camera rotation angle is 30 degrees, and if the second orientation is 80 degrees, the second orientation may be gradually increased to 110 degrees as the user slide operation progresses.
By adopting the method, the user may be allowed to control the angle of the first virtual object displayed on the display interface, so that the user may be allowed to observe the action details of the first virtual object from other angles, thereby improving the user experience.
In a possible implementation, subsequent to suspending the linkage relationship between a first orientation of the first pose and a second orientation of the second pose, it is further possible to respond to a movement control operation of the first virtual object, to control the first virtual object to make a movement according to the movement control operation, and to reestablish the linkage relationship between the first orientation and the second orientation.
Herein, the movement control operation may be, for example, a trigger operation on a movement control area displayed on the display interface or may be a trigger operation on a movement key or joystick of the terminal device.
Specifically, when the first virtual object is controlled to make a movement according to the movement control operation, it may be a movement according to a target direction corresponding to the movement control operation, and for example, in the case where the movement control operation is sliding leftward within the movement control area, and the target direction corresponding to the movement control operation is left, the first virtual object may be controlled to make a leftward movement.
Then, in reestablishing the linkage relationship between the first orientation and the second orientation, it may be the case that the first orientation is rotated again with the rotation of the second orientation, or the second orientation is rotated with the rotation of the first orientation.
In a possible implementation, subsequent to reestablishing the linkage relationship between the first orientation and the second orientation, in the case where it is detected that the current first orientation of the first virtual object and the current second orientation of the virtual camera are inconsistent, the first orientation of the first virtual object is adjusted, or the second orientation of the virtual camera is adjusted.
Specifically, the first orientation of the first virtual object may be controlled to be rotated as the same as the second orientation of the virtual camera, or the second orientation of the virtual camera may be controlled to be rotated as the same as the first orientation of the first virtual object, so as to make the first orientation and the second orientation the same again.
Here, Step 103 may also be no longer performed, i.e. the first virtual object is no longer caused to perform the interactive action, after responding to the movement control operation for the first virtual object.
By adopting the method, through the control of the user, the linkage relationship between the first orientation and the second orientation can be recovered, and/or the first virtual object can be stopped from performing the interactive action, and the movement behavior corresponding to the latest trigger movement control operation of the user is performed, so that the user can more flexibly control the display visual angle (namely the second orientation) of the display interface and/or the first virtual object, thereby improving the user experience.
For Step 103,
Herein, the third pose may include a third position and an orientation of the target virtual object, the third position may be a three-dimensional coordinate of the target virtual object in the virtual scene, the movement information may include a movement distance, a steering angle, a movement direction, a movement speed, and the like, and the steering angle is an angle at which the first virtual object needs to be deflected toward the target virtual object.
In a possible implementation, when determining movement information of the first virtual object, it may be the case that the movement direction is determined based on the third position and the first position, and the steering angle is determined based on the movement direction and the first orientation; and, the movement distance is determined based on the third position and the first position.
Specifically, when determining the movement direction and the steering angle, the direction of the target virtual object with respect to the first virtual object may be first determined based on the first position and the third position, and the direction may be taken as the movement direction, and then the angle between the movement direction and the first orientation may be taken as the steering angle. In determining the movement distance, a distance between the first position and the third position may be taken as the movement distance. When the movement speed is determined, the movement speed may be a preset fixed speed, or the movement speed may be determined based on a virtual prop (such as a garment, a weapon, and the like, and the virtual prop may include a target prop described later) carried by the first virtual object, for example, different types of virtual props may correspond to different movement speeds (for example, the movement speed corresponding to a cold weapon type is 1 meter per second, and the movement speed corresponding to a hot weapon type is 0.5 meter per second), or different virtual props may correspond to different weights, and the movement speed of the first virtual object may be determined according to a total weight of the virtual props (for example, the movement speed corresponding to 0.5 to 2.5 Kilogram is 1 meter per second, and the movement speed corresponding to 2.5 to 5 Kilogram is 0.5 meter per second).
In practical applications, if the interactive action to be performed by the first virtual object also has a certain execution range (for example, the interactive action is to pat the shoulder, and the length of the arm of the first virtual object is namely the execution range), or because the respective models of the first virtual object and the target virtual object are also of certain volumes, when the first virtual object performs an interactive action on the target virtual object, the first virtual object should not overlap with the target virtual object, and after the distance between the first position and the third position is calculated, the execution range and/or the possible overlapping length between the models of the first virtual object and the second virtual object should be subtracted from the distance.
In a possible application scenario, when the first virtual object is performing an interactive action, the first virtual object can usually perform the interactive action with a target prop, for example, with a sword to chop the target virtual object, and the target prop usually has a certain length, for example, the sword is 1.5 meters long, and therefore, when the movement distance is determined, the corresponding range of action of the target prop also needs to be combined. Specifically, the responding to a target trigger operation (in Step 102) may also be responding to a target trigger operation on a target prop of the first virtual object, and then when determining movement information of the first virtual object based on a third pose of the target virtual object and the first pose, the movement information of the first virtual object may be determined based on the third pose of the target virtual object, the first pose, and the range of action corresponding to the target prop.
Specifically, different props may correspond to different trigger positions, for example, the display interface may display buttons of a plurality of different props, and in response to a trigger operation on any prop, the prop may be used as the target prop; or, the target prop used by the first virtual object may be changed in advance by the user, and then after the user performs the target trigger operation, it may be determined that the target trigger operation is the target trigger operation on the target prop. The range of action corresponding to the target prop can be preset, for example, the range of action corresponding to the target prop sword is 1.5 meters, and the range of action corresponding to the target prop dagger is 1 meter.
In a possible implementation, when the movement information of the first virtual object is determined based on the third pose of the target virtual object, the first pose, and the range of action corresponding to the target prop, the movement direction may be determined based on the third position and the first position, and the steering angle may be determined based on the movement direction and the first orientation; and, the movement distance is determined based on the third position, the first position, and the range of action corresponding to the target prop.
Specifically, when determining the steering angle, the direction of the target virtual object with respect to the first virtual object may be first determined based on the first position and the third position, and the direction may be taken as the movement direction, and then the angle between the movement direction and the first orientation may be calculated and taken as the steering angle.
In determining the movement distance, the distance between the first position and the third position may be first calculated, and then the range of action (e.g., 1 meter) corresponding to the target prop is subtracted from the distance, so as to obtain the movement distance.
By adopting the method to calculate the movement distance, the first virtual object, when making a movement according to the movement information, can accurately move to the position where the interaction action with the target virtual object can be completed by using the target prop so that the user experience is improved.
For Step 104,
In a possible implementation manner, when the first virtual object is controlled to make a movement according to the movement information, it may be the case that the first virtual object is controlled to move the movement distance along the movement direction, and after the movement is finished, the distance between the first virtual object and the target virtual object may allow the first virtual object to perform an interactive action corresponding to the target trigger operation on the target virtual object. For example, the first virtual object may move to a position 0.5 meters away from the target virtual object and perform a punch action on the target virtual object.
In another possible implementation, when the first virtual object is controlled to make a movement according to the movement information, the first virtual object may be controlled to adjust the first orientation according to the steering angle and to make a movement according to the movement distance.
Here, when making a movement according to the movement information, it may be the case of making a movement according to the movement direction or the adjusted first orientation.
For example, as shown in
Here, since the target virtual object may be in a moving state, the steering angle may be calculated in real time before the first virtual object moves, and the first orientation of the first virtual object may be adjusted according to the steering angle, so that the first orientation of the first virtual object always faces the target virtual object.
By adopting this method, the first virtual object can be made to face the target virtual object when moving toward the target virtual object, so that the display effect is more natural and real.
In a possible implementation, after the first virtual object is controlled to perform an interactive action corresponding to the target trigger operation on the target virtual object, in the case where within a preset time period after the target trigger operation is responded it is not detected that a target trigger operation is performed again, or in the case where the state of the target virtual object satisfies a preset condition, the linkage relationship between the first orientation and the second orientation is reestablished.
Specifically, if the linkage relationship between the first orientation and the second orientation is established immediately after the first virtual object performs the interactive action, in the case where the user performs the target trigger operation again to control the first virtual object to perform the interactive action again (for example, in the case where the user wants to control the first virtual object to continuously attack the target virtual object), the linkage relationship between the first orientation of the first pose and the second orientation of the second pose will be suspended again, which will cause the angle of the displayed picture of the display interface or the first orientation of the first virtual object to be rotated back and forth, thereby lowering the user experience, and if after the target trigger operation is responded it is not detected that a target trigger operation is performed again within a preset time period, it may indicate that the user no longer wants the first virtual object to perform the interactive action again, the linkage relationship between the first orientation and the second orientation can then be restored.
The state of the target virtual object may include the pose of the target virtual object and the attribute information of the target virtual object (such as a life value, whether the target virtual object is dead or not, whether the target virtual object is an interactable object or not, and the attribute information is different for different application programs and can be set by developers). For example, the preset condition may be that the life value of the target virtual object is 0, or the distance between the third position of the target virtual object and the first position of the first virtual object (or the second position of the virtual camera) exceeds a second distance range (the second distance range may be equal to the first distance range), in which case obviously no interactive action should be performed on the target virtual object any more, and then the linkage relationship between the first orientation and the second orientation may be restored.
According to a virtual object control method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, a virtual scene and a first virtual object controlled by a current client may be first displayed in a display interface of a terminal device; wherein a first pose of the first virtual object in the virtual scene is linked with a second pose of a virtual camera in the virtual scene; then, after a target trigger operation is responded, a target virtual object for interaction with the first virtual object is determined, and based on a third pose of the target virtual object and the first pose of the first virtual object, movement information of the first virtual object is determined, so that subsequent to controlling the first virtual object to make a movement according to the movement information, it can be guaranteed that the target virtual object is located within the interaction range of the interactive action to be performed by the first virtual object, and accordingly, the first virtual object can be controlled to successfully perform an interactive action corresponding to the target trigger operation on the target virtual object after the movement is finished.
Furthermore, after the target triggering operation is responded, the linkage relationship between the first orientation of the first pose and the second orientation of the second pose can be suspended, so that the visual angle of the picture displayed on the display interface cannot be rotated along with the rotation of the first orientation of the first virtual object, which avoids, to a certain extent, the problem that the visual angle of the picture rotates too fast, and the distance between the first virtual object and the target virtual object and the action details of the first virtual object can be better observed by the user from other angles, thereby improving the display effect.
