Although only objects are shown, in some embodiments the virtual environment screen may include more or fewer secondary virtual objects. In the user interface 301, target attribute values of each virtual object, virtual object identifiers, other controls, etc. are generated.

Step 202: In response to a trigger operation on the target function control, a second virtual object whose target attribute value satisfies a predetermined condition is determined as a candidate virtual object, and a candidate object identifier of the candidate virtual object is generated.

The trigger operation for the target function control includes, but is not limited to, a click operation, a double click operation, a long press operation, etc., and the candidate virtual object is a second virtual object whose target attribute value satisfies a predetermined condition. , optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, the predetermined condition is that the target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold, and the attribute value threshold is preset and may be set to a specific value, or may be set to a percentage. may be set to . For example, if the attribute value is a life value indicated by hit points, the attribute value threshold may be 80 points or 80%.

In some embodiments, the terminal monitors the target attribute value of each second virtual object in real time and changes the target function control from the default state if it determines that there is a second virtual object that meets the predetermined condition. Switching to the quick trigger state, in the default state, the user selects the execution direction of the target operation by the trigger operation on the target function control, and the first virtual object moves to the execution direction and the second virtual object within the operation execution area. In the quick trigger state, the user performs a trigger operation on the target function control to generate an object identifier of a second virtual object whose target attribute value satisfies a predetermined condition. Trigger.

Step 203: In response to a selection operation on a candidate object identifier, the selected candidate object identifier is determined as a target object identifier, and the first virtual object performs a target operation on a target virtual object corresponding to the target object identifier. Control to execute.

The identifier of the target virtual object is the target object identifier, that is, the virtual object according to the target object identifier is the target virtual object. Optionally, the selection operation for the target object identifier is to drag the target function control to the position where the target object identifier is located.

In some embodiments, when the target function control is in a default state, the user manually selects an area to perform the target operation with the target function control to perform the target operation, and when the target function control is in the quick trigger state. , as soon as the user triggers the target feature control, generate candidate object identifiers, in this case select the target object identity of the target virtual object whose target attribute value is to be changed from the candidate object identifiers, and by a selection operation on the target object identifier. , the first virtual object can be controlled to automatically perform the target operation on the target virtual object, without the need to manually select an execution area for the target operation. The target operation execution area refers to the target operation action area. The target object identifier is the identifier of the target virtual object. That is, the target virtual object is a virtual object corresponding to the target object identifier.

Illustratively, as shown in FIG. 4, when the user triggers (e.g., clicks, long presses, slides, etc.) the target object identifier 406, the first virtual object performs the target operation on the target virtual object; There is no need for the user to manually control the target function control 404 to place the operation execution area on the target virtual object 402. After the first virtual object performs the target operation on the target virtual object 402, the terminal generates an operation execution effect on the target virtual object 402, and the operation execution effect is a change in the target attribute value of the target virtual object 402. Indicate the amount. The operation execution area is an execution area of the target operation.

In this embodiment, if there is a second virtual object whose target attribute value satisfies a predetermined condition, a trigger operation on the target function control can trigger generation of a corresponding candidate object identifier, and the candidate object identifier can be If selected, the target attribute value of the target virtual object is determined by determining the selected candidate object identifier to be the target object identifier and controlling the first virtual object to perform the target operation on the target virtual object. data processing resources and operations during the human-machine interaction process, avoiding the target operation to act on the second virtual object where the second virtual object does not exist or where the target attribute value does not need to be changed.

In some embodiments, the trigger operation on the target function control and the selection operation on the target object identifier are continuous operations, and in order to avoid erroneously touching other candidate object identifiers due to mistakes in the continuous operation, the present embodiment When generating a candidate object identifier, the generation priority represents the distance between the generated candidate object identifier and the target function control, and the higher the generation priority, the higher the generation priority. The first virtual object is controlled to perform a target operation on the target virtual object in close proximity to the target function control so that a user can easily trigger the target object identifier.

Referring to FIG. 5, a flowchart of a method for controlling a virtual object according to one exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. This embodiment describes the method as being applied to the first terminal 110 or the second terminal 130 or other terminals in the implementation environment of FIG. 1, and the method includes the following steps.

Step 501: Generate a virtual environment screen and a target function control, a first virtual object and a second virtual object are generated on the virtual environment screen, and the target function control is such that the first virtual object corresponds to the target function. The target operation is triggered to perform a target operation, and the target operation is triggered to change a target attribute value of the second virtual object.

For an embodiment of step 501, reference may be made to step 201 above.

Step 502: Obtaining a target attribute value of a second virtual object within the operation execution area in response to a trigger operation on the target function control.

In some embodiments, the target operation has an operation execution area, and the target function control is for controlling the first virtual object to perform the target operation on the second virtual object within the operation execution area. , when a trigger operation for the target function control is received, the terminal operation is to obtain the target attribute value of the second virtual object in the execution area, and from then on, there is a second virtual object that satisfies the predetermined condition. Determine whether or not.

Alternatively, the operation execution area may be a circular area centered on the first virtual object and having a predetermined length as a radius, or may be a circular area centered on the first virtual object, and may be a circular area having a radius of a predetermined length, Any corresponding range may be acceptable, and the embodiments of this application are not limiting.

Step 503: Determine a second virtual object whose target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold as the first candidate virtual object.

After the terminal obtains the target attribute value of the second virtual object in the operation execution area, the terminal detects whether the target attribute value of the second virtual object is lower than the attribute value threshold, and determines whether the second virtual object's target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold. If a virtual object exists, the second virtual object is determined to be the first candidate virtual object. The user can select a target virtual object from the first candidate virtual objects and change the target attribute value of the target virtual object according to the target skill.

Step 504: determining a respective corresponding generation position of each first candidate object identifier, the first candidate object identifier being an object identifier of a first candidate virtual object.

The generation position of the first candidate object identifier refers to the position of the generated first candidate object identifier in the interface. When the terminal receives a trigger operation for the target function control, the terminal generates a first candidate object identifier of the first candidate virtual object, and the user selects the first candidate virtual object by a selection operation for the target object identifier in the first candidate object identifier. Controlling the virtual object to perform a target operation on a target virtual object corresponding to a target object identifier.

Selectively, the trigger operation on the target function control is a long press operation, the selection operation on the target object identifier is a drag operation, the position where the target object identifier is located is the end point of the drag operation, and the long press operation and the drag operation is a continuous operation.

In some embodiments, when the long press and drag operations are consecutive operations, the distance between the target feature control and the corresponding object identifier of the first candidate virtual object whose target attribute value needs to be changed is If it is far away, operation failure is likely to occur, and continuous operations are interrupted, leading to execution failure of the target operation. Accordingly, after the terminal receives the triggering operation for the target function control, the terminal determines the corresponding generation position of each of the first candidate object identifiers, for example, the terminal determines the corresponding generation position of each of the first candidate virtual objects and the first virtual object. The generation position of the first candidate object identifier is determined based on the distance between the first candidate object identifier and the target function control. reduce and increase the precision of operation.

Step 505: Generate a first candidate object identifier at the generation position.

In this embodiment, when a trigger operation for a target function control is received, a second virtual object in the operation execution area whose target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold is determined as the first candidate virtual object, and the object identifier is Before generation, first determine the generation priority of the first candidate object identifier, determine the generation position based on the generation priority, and further speed up the user's selection operation for the target object identifier and execute the operation. It improves efficiency, reduces the situation of erroneous touching of other candidate object identifiers in the triggering process, and reduces the waste of data processing resources and computing resources in the man-machine interaction process.

In some embodiments, determining the respective corresponding generation location of each first candidate object identifier includes the following steps.

Step 1: Obtain the distance between the first candidate virtual object and the first virtual object as a first object distance, determine the generation priority of each first candidate object identifier, and set the generation priority to the first object distance. The determination is made based on at least one of a target attribute value of the first candidate virtual object, a first object distance, and a current game score of the first candidate virtual object.

In some embodiments, the production location is determined based on production priority. The generation priority is determined based on the target attribute value of the first candidate virtual object. The target attribute value and the generation priority have a negative relationship, and the lower the target attribute value of the first candidate virtual object, the higher the generation priority of the corresponding first candidate object identifier. For example, the first candidate virtual objects that currently satisfy the predetermined condition include the second virtual object A, the second virtual object B, and the second virtual object C, and the hit points of the second virtual object A are 50%, the hit points of the second virtual object B are 80%, and the hit points of the second virtual object C are 20%, then the corresponding objects of the second virtual objects A, B, and C The generation priority of the identifier is C>A>B.

Optionally, the generation priority is further determined based on a first object distance between the candidate virtual object and the first virtual object. After receiving the trigger operation for the target function control, the terminal obtains the coordinate information of all the first candidate virtual objects at this time in the virtual environment, and identifies each first candidate virtual object and the first candidate virtual object based on the coordinate information. Obtain each first object distance to the virtual object, and the first object distance and the generation priority have a negative relationship, that is, the closer the distance to the first virtual object, the higher the High generation priority.

Optionally, the generation priority is further determined based on a current game score of the first candidate virtual object. The current game score represents the game fighting power of the first candidate virtual object, and since the game fighting power of different first candidate virtual objects has different effects on the game result, it is difficult for the user to perform target operations. , when controlling the first virtual object, there is a possibility of considering the effect object of the target operation based on the fighting power of the game.

In some embodiments, the generation priority and the current game score have a positive relationship, for example, the higher the current game score of the first candidate virtual object, the higher its generation priority. Optionally, the terminal determines the current game score by obtaining the current game attributes of each first candidate virtual object, where the current game attributes are one of the virtual object's defeat quantity, battle level, and equipment attribute. There is a positive relationship between the number of virtual objects defeated, the battle level, and the equipment attribute, and the current game score, that is, the higher the number of virtual objects defeated, the current game score is The higher the match level, the higher the current match score, and the higher the equipment attribute, the higher the current match score.

Optionally, determining the generation priority of each first candidate object identifier is determined based on at least one option of the above schemes. When determining the generation priority by combining various options, the generation priority is determined based on the weights of the different options. The corresponding weight values of different selections may be set by the user or may be preset. For example, it is determined based on the target attribute value and the current game score of the first candidate virtual object at the same time, and the weight of the target attribute value is 60%, and the weight of the current game score is 40%.

Step 2: Determine the corresponding generation position of each first candidate object identifier based on the generation priority, and the distance from the generation position to the target function control has a positive relationship with the generation priority.

After determining the generation priority of the first candidate object identifier, the generation position is determined based on the generation priority. Since the long press operation on the target function control and the drag operation on the target object identifier are continuous operations, there is a positive relationship between the distance from the generation position to the target function control and the generation priority.

The fact that there is a positive relationship between the distance from the generation position to the target function control and the generation priority means that the higher the generation priority, the shorter the distance from the generation position to the target function control, and the lower the generation priority, the shorter the distance from the generation position to the target function control. This means that the distance from the generation position to the target function control is long. In the above embodiment, the generation priority is determined based on at least one of the target attribute value of the first candidate virtual object, the first object distance, and the current game score. The accuracy of the generation priority is increased by fully considering the situation of the candidate virtual object, and since there is a positive relationship between the distance from the generation position to the target function control and the generation priority, the higher the generation priority, the higher the generation priority. , if the distance from the generation position to the target function control is short, and the long press operation and drag operation are continuous operations, the corresponding object of the first candidate virtual object whose target attribute value needs to be changed. The distance between the identifier and the target function control is close, increasing the success rate of executing the target operation during the man-machine interaction process, avoiding duplicate operations, and reducing the probability of wasting computing resources.

In some embodiments, the method includes receiving an attribute value reply request sent from a server, the attribute value reply request being sent from a second virtual object via the server; further comprising the step of determining a generation priority for each first candidate object identifier, the step of determining a generation priority for each first candidate object identifier receiving a trigger operation for the target function control in a predetermined period after receiving the attribute value reply request; If the requested object identifier belongs to the first candidate object identifier, the method includes determining the requested object identifier to have the highest generation priority.

The attribute value reply request includes a request object identifier. The request object identifier points to the second virtual object that triggered the attribute value reply request. The attribute value reply request requests the first virtual object to obtain the target operation, ie, to perform the target operation on the second virtual object that triggered the attribute value reply request.

When determining the generation priority of the first candidate virtual object, the terminal determines the priority based on the attribute value reply request of the first candidate virtual object. Optionally, when the second virtual object needs to change the target attribute value, the terminal corresponding to the second virtual object sends an attribute value reply request to the server, and the server sends the attribute value reply request to the server. The attribute value reply request is transferred to the terminal of the first virtual object, and the request object identifier is included in the attribute value reply request. The request object identifier points to the second virtual object that triggered the attribute value reply request.

After receiving the attribute value reply request, if the terminal receives a trigger operation for the target function control within a predetermined period, the terminal detects whether the requested object identifier belongs to the first candidate object identifier, and if it belongs, the corresponding requested object Determine the identifier to have the highest generation priority.

Optionally, if there are a plurality of second virtual objects that send attribute value reply requests, and the corresponding request object identifiers all belong to the first candidate object identifier, the attribute value reply request is generated according to the request time. The priority is determined, and the request object identifier included in the attribute value reply request with the earliest request time is determined to have the highest generation priority.

For example, as shown in FIG. 8, an attribute value reply request 802 of a second virtual object 801 is generated on the virtual environment screen, and if the second virtual object 801 is the first candidate virtual object, the terminal receives an operation on the target function control 803 and triggers the generation of the first candidate object identifier, the corresponding object identifier 804 of the second virtual object 801 has the highest generation priority and the target function The distance to the control 803 is the closest.

In the above embodiment, if a trigger operation for the target function control is received within a predetermined period after receiving the attribute value reply request, and the request object identifier belongs to the first candidate object identifier, the request object identifier is generated as the highest. By determining the priority, the target operation is performed on the second virtual object that actively requested the target operation, and the target operation is performed independently on the second virtual object that is in urgent need of the target operation. , improve the effectiveness of operation and save data processing resources and computing resources in the process of man-machine interaction.

In some embodiments, generating the first candidate object identifier at the generation location includes generating the first candidate object identifier at the generation location and object information for the first candidate virtual object, The object information includes at least one of a target attribute value, a first object distance, and a current game score.

The target attribute value is generated on the circumferential side of the object identifier, and the generation method includes circular generation, strip-like generation, or numeric form generation. The first object distance and the current game score are generated in numerical form around the object identifier, and when various types of object information are generated, the generation positions of different object information may be different, for example, the target attribute value, The first object distance and the current game score generation position may be different.

As shown in FIG. 6, the first candidate virtual object includes a second virtual object a, a second virtual object b, and a second virtual object c, and the virtual object 601a in FIG. , the virtual object 601b refers to the second virtual object b, the virtual object 601c refers to the second virtual object c, and the object identifier is the corresponding object identifier 602a of the second virtual object a, the second virtual object A corresponding object identifier 602b of object b and a corresponding object identifier 602c of second virtual object c are included, and the target attribute value of second virtual object b<target attribute value of second virtual object a<second virtual Since this is the target attribute value of object c, the object identifier generation priority is object identifier 602b>object identifier 602a>object identifier 602c. At the time of generation, the distance between the object identifier 602b and the target function control 603<the distance between the object identifier 602a and the target function control 603<the distance between the object identifier 602c and the target function control 603. Target attribute values are further generated at the object identifier generation position so as to surround the identifier.

In the above embodiment, by generating the first candidate object identifier and the object information of the first candidate virtual object at the generation position, the object information of the candidate virtual object can be acquired intuitively, and the target object identifier can be easily determined. determining the target object identifier from the first candidate object identifier, increasing the efficiency of determining the target object identifier from the first candidate object identifier, reducing the computation time and saving computation resources to realize the result.

In some embodiments, in response to a selection operation on a candidate object identifier, the selected candidate object identifier is determined to be a target object identifier, and the first virtual object corresponds to the target virtual object corresponding to the target object identifier. The step of controlling to perform the target operation includes determining the selected first candidate object identifier as a target object identifier in response to the selection operation on the first candidate object identifier, and determining a target object identifier corresponding to the target object identifier. The method includes the steps of acquiring current position information of the virtual object, and controlling the first virtual object to perform a target operation on the target virtual object based on the current position information.

Since the target operation is a range type operation and has a certain range of action, when the terminal receives a selection operation for the target object identifier in the first candidate object identifier, it can acquire the current position information of the target virtual object.

In some embodiments, the terminal generates a first candidate object identifier when receiving a long press operation on the target feature control, and the terminal detects an end position of the drag operation on the target feature control and determines the end point. A first candidate object identifier for a position is determined as a target object identifier, and current position information of the target virtual object is obtained. If it is detected that the first candidate object identifier is not present at the end point position, execution of the target operation fails and there is no first candidate object identifier. After acquiring the current position information of the target virtual object, the terminal controls the first virtual object to perform a target operation on the target virtual object, and causes the user to perform the target operation on the target virtual object. There is no need to manually adjust the execution area of the target operation.

Optionally, after performing the target operation on the target virtual object, the target feature control is in a feature cool state, and in the feature cool state, the target feature control cannot be triggered. After the function cools down for a predetermined period, the target function control is restored to a triggerable state.

Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 7, when a long press operation is received on the target function control 701, and the end position of the drag operation is the object identifier 702 in the first candidate object identifier, the terminal selects the object identifier 702. The location information of the second virtual object 703 corresponding to is acquired, and a target operation is performed on the second virtual object 703 based on the location information. After executing the target operation, an operation execution effect is generated on the circumferential side of the second virtual object 703, and the target function control 701 is in a function cooling state, and the function cooling period is 15 seconds.

In the above embodiment, the first virtual object is controlled to obtain current position information of the target virtual object corresponding to the target object identifier and perform a targeting operation on the target virtual object based on the current position information. , since the position of the target virtual object may change, controlling the first virtual object to perform the target operation on the target virtual object based on the current position information of the target virtual object is as follows: The target operation can be performed based on the location where the target virtual object is located, increasing the precision of the operation and saving computer resources.

In one application scenario, there may be a second virtual object outside the operation execution area whose target attribute value needs to be changed, and if it is located outside the operation execution area, the user can , the target virtual object must be manually controlled to move the changed target attribute value to the target virtual object that needs to be changed, and the operation execution direction must be adjusted to perform the target operation on the target virtual object. In this process, the position of the first virtual object and the operation execution direction are manually adjusted, which makes the operation complicated, and the target operation tends to affect other positions, resulting in wasted resources. Therefore, in some embodiments, by selecting the object identifier of the second virtual object outside the operation execution area, the first virtual object is automatically controlled to execute the target operation, and the operation execution efficiency is improved. and reduce resource wastage. In some embodiments, the candidate virtual object further includes a second candidate virtual object, and in response to a triggering operation on the target function control, the second virtual object whose target attribute value satisfies the predetermined condition is designated as the candidate virtual object. The step of determining the object and generating a candidate object identifier for the candidate virtual object further includes the following steps.

Step 902: Obtaining a target attribute value of a second virtual object outside the operation execution area in response to a trigger operation on the target function control.

In some embodiments, when a trigger operation for a target function control is received, an object identifier for a candidate virtual object outside the operation execution area as well as an object identifier for a candidate virtual object within the operation execution area may be generated, and the user may The target attribute value of the second virtual object outside the operation execution area can be changed by a selection operation on the object identifier.

Therefore, after receiving the trigger operation for the target function control, the terminal acquires the target attribute value of the second virtual object outside the operation execution area, and determines whether the predetermined condition is satisfied.

Step 903: A second virtual object whose target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold is determined as a second candidate virtual object.

The second virtual object whose target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold and which is within the operation execution area is the first candidate virtual object, and the object identifier of the first candidate virtual object is the first candidate object identifier. . A second virtual object whose target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold and which is outside the operation execution area is a second candidate virtual object, and an object identifier of the second candidate virtual object is a second candidate object identifier. .

Selectively, the terminal determines a second virtual object outside the operation execution area whose target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold as the second candidate virtual object.

Step 904: Generating a second candidate object identifier of the second candidate virtual object and a second object distance between the second candidate virtual object and the first virtual object; The generation method or generation area is different from the second candidate object identifier.

After determining the second candidate virtual object, the terminal generates a second candidate object identifier for the second candidate virtual object, and since the second candidate virtual object is located outside the operation execution area, some implementations In an example, while generating a second candidate object identifier, a second object distance between the second candidate virtual object and the first virtual object is generated. Optionally, the generation position of the second candidate object identifier may be determined based on the generation priority, and the generation priority determination method for the generation priority may be the generation priority of the first candidate object identifier in the above embodiment. Please refer to the determination method.

In some embodiments, the first candidate object identifier and the second candidate may be used to clearly distinguish between candidate virtual objects within the operation performance area and candidate virtual objects outside the operation performance area. The generation method or generation area is different from that of the object identifier.

Optionally, the first candidate object identifier and the second candidate object identifier are distinguished by at least one of a generated size, a generated color, or a generated brightness.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10, the second virtual object a is located within the operation execution area, the second virtual object b and the second virtual object c are located outside the operation execution area, and the second virtual object a is located outside the operation execution area. The attribute values of virtual object a, second virtual object b, and second virtual object c targets are all lower than the attribute value threshold, virtual object 1001 is second virtual object a, virtual object 1002 is second virtual object Since the virtual object 1003 is the second virtual object c, when a trigger operation for the target function control 1004 is received, the corresponding object identifier 1005 of the second virtual object a, the second virtual object A corresponding object identifier 1006 of object a and a corresponding object identifier 1007 of second virtual object a are generated. The generated size of the object identifier 1005 is larger than that of the object identifier 1006 and the object identifier 1007, and unlike the generation area of the object identifier 1006 and the object identifier 1007, the object identifier 1005 has a second generation area on the object identifier 1006 side and the object identifier 1007 side. Object distances are generated.

In the above embodiment, a second candidate object identifier and a second object distance of the second candidate virtual object are generated, and the second candidate virtual object is a virtual object outside the operation execution area, and the target attribute thereof is Since the value is lower than the attribute value threshold, the second object distance can be obtained intuitively, thereby contributing to determining the movement situation of the second candidate virtual object when the second object distance changes. and improves the positioning efficiency of the second candidate virtual object, reducing the computation time to achieve the result and saving computation resources.

In some embodiments, in response to a selection operation on a candidate object identifier, the selected candidate object identifier is determined to be a target object identifier, and the first virtual object corresponds to the target virtual object corresponding to the target object identifier. The step of controlling to perform the target operation further includes the following steps.

Step 905: Obtain current position information of the target virtual object in response to a selection operation for the target object identifier in the second candidate object identifier.

When the terminal receives a selection operation for the target object identifier in the second candidate object identifier, the terminal acquires the current position information of the target virtual object and selects the first virtual object to perform the target operation on the current position information. Control objects.

Step 906: Control the first virtual object to move to the target virtual object based on the current position information.

Since the target virtual object is located outside the operation execution area, before controlling the first virtual object to perform the target operation, the terminal automatically moves the first virtual object to the current position of the target virtual object. control.

Step 907: If the target virtual object is located within the operation execution area, the first virtual object is controlled to perform the target operation on the target virtual object based on the current position information.

When controlling the first virtual object to move to the target virtual object position, the terminal detects the distance between the first virtual object and the target virtual object in real time, and the terminal detects the distance between the first virtual object and the target virtual object so that the target virtual object is within the operation execution area. If the second target virtual object is located, the target operation is performed on the target virtual object based on the current position information of the second target virtual object, and the user moves the first virtual object to the target virtual object outside the operation execution area. Avoid manual control to move and increase operation execution efficiency.

In this embodiment, the first virtual object is controlled to be moved to the target virtual object based on the current position information, and when the target virtual object is located within the operation execution area, the first virtual object is moved to the target virtual object based on the current position information. controlling the first virtual object to perform a target operation on a target virtual object, thereby automatically controlling the first virtual object to move, positioning the target virtual object within the operation execution area, and controlling the first virtual object to perform a target operation on a user manually controls the movement of the first virtual object to perform a target operation on the target virtual object without having to adjust the operation execution area, increasing the efficiency and smoothness of man-machine interaction.

In some embodiments, the trigger operation on the target function control includes a long press operation, the selection operation on the target object identifier includes a drag operation, and the drag end position of the drag operation and the position of the target object identifier match; The long press operation and drag operation are continuous operations.

The starting point of the drag operation may be the position where the target function control is located, and after performing a long press operation on the target function control, performing a drag operation on the position of the target object identifier, the target object identifier Achieve selection operations for.

In this embodiment, the selection operation for the target object identifier can be realized conveniently and quickly by the long press operation and the drag operation, thereby improving the efficiency and smoothness of the man-machine interaction.

In some embodiments, the triggering operation on the target function control, in addition to triggering to generate the candidate object identifier, also triggers the execution position selection control to generate the operation execution position. The operation execution position refers to the position where the target operation acts, and the step of generating a candidate object identifier for the candidate virtual object includes determining the control generation area of the execution position selection control and selecting a generation area outside the control generation area. generating candidate object identifiers.

By operating the execution position selection control, the user manually adjusts the operation execution position of the target operation and executes the target operation. The operation execution position may be an area or a specific position, and if it is an area, it may be called an operation execution area. The candidate object identifier generation position is outside the control generation area of the operation execution position selection control.

As shown in FIG. 11, when the terminal receives a trigger operation for the target function control, it is triggered to generate an operation execution position selection control and a candidate object identifier, and the control generation area 1101 of the operation execution position selection control and the candidate object It is generated in a different area from the identifier 1102.

In this embodiment, by generating a candidate object identifier in a generation area outside the control generation area, collisions between the position of the candidate object identifier and the position of the control generation area, collisions between positions, and operation collisions are reduced. This reduces the probability of erroneous operations and effectively avoids duplicate operations and the resulting waste of computing resources.

In some application scenarios, the virtual environment does not have a second virtual object that belongs to the same faction as the first virtual object, and if the second virtual object does not exist, the target operation is performed. There's no need to.

In some embodiments, prior to generating an object identifier for a second virtual object whose target attribute value satisfies a predetermined condition in response to a triggering operation on a target feature control, the method comprises and, if the quantity of the second virtual object is greater than a quantity threshold, monitoring a target attribute value of the second virtual object.

The quantity threshold may be a default value or a value set by the user. When the second virtual object exists in the virtual environment, the terminal monitors the target attribute value of the second virtual object.

Since the terminal monitors the target attribute value of the second virtual object in the virtual environment in real time, when the power consumption of the terminal is high and the number of second virtual objects is small, the user will generally The first virtual object can be precisely controlled so as to perform a target operation on each second virtual object, and therefore, in the present example, each second virtual object is If the terminal is triggered to detect the target attribute value of the object, and the quantity of the second virtual object is large, the corresponding target attribute value of the second virtual object can be quickly grasped, and the second virtual object There is no need to detect the corresponding target attribute value in real time, which reduces the power consumption of the terminal and reduces the waste of computing resources when detecting the target attribute value.

In some embodiments, the method further includes ceasing monitoring the target attribute value of the second virtual object when the quantity of the second virtual object is less than a quantity threshold.

In this embodiment, when the quantity of the second virtual object is smaller than the quantity threshold, monitoring of the target attribute value of the second virtual object is stopped, thereby reducing the power consumption of the terminal.

Combining the above embodiments, in one illustrative example, FIG. 12 illustrates the control flow of a virtual object.
Step 1201: Activate the target attribute value monitoring function.
Step 1202: Detect whether the second virtual object exists, and if YES, execute step 1203.
Step 1203: In response to a long press operation on the target function control, it is determined whether a second virtual object exists whose target attribute value is lower than the attribute value threshold, and if YES, step 1204 is executed.
Step 1204: Generate candidate object identifiers.
Step 1205: Determine whether a candidate object identifier exists at the end point position of the drag operation. If YES, step 1206 is executed.
Step 1206: Controlling the first virtual object to release the target skill to the target virtual object.
