Fig. 6 is a schematic layout view of game pictures displayed in another graphical user interface provided in the embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 6, after a user terminal respectively renders a game picture a of a second virtual character and a game picture b of a third virtual character in a designated area, a display manner of the graphical user interface may be as shown in fig. 6, and of course, the layout positions of the game picture of the second virtual character and the game picture of the third virtual character may be arranged according to a selection order of virtual characters selected by a user, for example: the screen display device can be sequentially arranged from the left side to the right side of the screen according to the selection sequence, or can be sequentially arranged from the right side to the left side of the screen according to the selection sequence. Fig. 7 is a schematic layout view of game pictures displayed in another graphical user interface according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 7, after a user sequentially selects identification information corresponding to a second virtual character and a third virtual character, a game picture a corresponding to the second virtual character and a game picture b corresponding to the third virtual character are sequentially displayed from the rightmost side of the graphical user interface.
Of course, the game screen of the second virtual character and the game screen of the third virtual character may be displayed in other areas of the graphical user interface than the area where the game screen of the first virtual character is located, and the specific display mode will not be described in detail here.
In one possible embodiment, the first operation and the second operation are each operations acting on a corresponding teammate selection control on the graphical user interface.
Specifically, a teammate selection control is arranged on the graphical user interface, teammates (namely own virtual roles) can be selected through operation of the control, one target virtual role of the own can be selected through each operation, and the own virtual roles with corresponding number can be selected through multiple operations, so that the selection of the own virtual roles by a user is facilitated. As shown in fig. 2, the small circle with the letter mark is the mark corresponding to the virtual character, as can be seen from fig. 2, in the game battle of this time, the game formation where the first virtual character is located has 5 players in total, the virtual characters corresponding to the mark a, the mark B, the mark C and the mark D are all teammates of the first virtual character, and the user can select the game picture of the corresponding teammate to display by operating the corresponding mark.
In a possible embodiment, the method further comprises: and responding to a first operation acted on the graphical user interface, and changing the teammate selection control acted by the first operation from a preset first style to a preset second style.
Specifically, in order to distinguish the virtual role selected by the user from the virtual roles not selected by the user, after the user performs the first operation on the graphical user interface (i.e., after the user performs the selection operation on the identifier of the second virtual role), the user changes the selection control of the second virtual role from the preset first style to the preset second style, so that the user can know which virtual role has been selected by changing the style of the control, where the style (i.e., the first style) of the role selection control corresponding to the second virtual role before the user performs the first operation on the graphical user interface may be as shown in fig. 2, the identifier a is a hollow circle, the user changes the style into the second style after performing the first operation on the graphical user interface, and the second style may be as shown in fig. 8, i.e., the identifier a is a circle with diagonal lines, fig. 8 is a display diagram provided by the embodiment of the present application, it should be noted that the first pattern in fig. 2 and the second pattern in fig. 8 are only schematic illustrations, and specific forms of the first pattern and the second pattern may be set according to actual needs, for example: the first pattern may be a pattern without filling with a bright color, the second pattern may be a pattern with filling with a bright color, the first pattern may be a first color, and the second pattern may be a second color, which is not limited herein.
In a possible implementation, fig. 9 is a schematic flow chart of another game control method provided in an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 9, the method further includes the following steps:
step 901, determining the user to send the interactive information in response to the selection operation of other game pictures except the game picture of the first virtual character displayed on the graphical user interface.
And step 902, responding to a third operation acting on the interactive control on the graphical user interface, and acquiring interactive information input by a user.
Step 903, sending the interaction information to a game server, so that the game server sends the interaction information to the user to be sent with the interaction information.
Specifically, after the user selects the virtual character to be observed, the user may select the user who needs to communicate again to determine the user (i.e., the information receiver) of the interactive information to be sent, for example: if the user wants to communicate with the user controlling the second virtual character and the user controlling the third virtual character, the user can perform the operation of selecting the second virtual character or/and the third virtual character again, so that the second virtual character or/and the third virtual character is determined to be the user to send the interactive information. After determining the user to send the interactive information, the user can use the interactive control to input the interactive information to the user terminal, so that the user terminal obtains the interactive information input by the user, and then the user terminal sends the interactive information to the server, so that the server sends the interactive information to the user corresponding to the interactive information to be sent. By the method, the user can select the own player who wants to communicate, and the own player which is not selected by the user cannot acquire the interactive information, so that the communication accuracy is improved.
For example, when the own players of the users include an own player a, an own player B, an own player C and an own player D, after the server receives a spectator request message sent by the user terminal for the own player a and the own player B, an interaction channel for enabling the user to perform data interaction with the own player a and an interaction channel for enabling the user to perform data interaction with the own player B are established, and when the user wants to make the own player a and the own player B cooperate with themselves to complete a thing after observing the own player a and the own player B, the user may operate an interaction control on a graphical user interface to select the own player a and the own player B as communication objects, so that the communication can be received by the own player a and the own player B, or after observing the own player a and the own player B, when the own player A is matched with the own player A to complete a thing without the participation of the own player B, the user can operate the interactive control on the graphical user interface to select the own player A as a communication object, so that the communication can be received by the own player A only, and the communication accuracy can be improved through the mode.
In a possible implementation, fig. 10 is a schematic flow chart of another game control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 10, the method further includes the following steps:
step 1001, responding to a third operation of the interactive control acting on the graphical user interface, and acquiring interactive information input by a user.
Step 1002, sending the interaction information to a game server, so that the game server sends the interaction information to a user corresponding to the second virtual character.
Specifically, after the user selects the second virtual character as the observation object, the interaction information can be directly input to the user terminal through the interaction control, so that the user terminal can obtain the interaction information input by the user, and after the user terminal obtains the interaction information input by the user, the interaction information can be sent to the server, so that the server can send the interaction information to the user corresponding to the second virtual character, and therefore communication between the user corresponding to the first virtual character and the user corresponding to the second virtual character is achieved.
In one possible embodiment, the interactive controls include at least one of: the system comprises a voice interaction control, an instruction interaction control and a text interaction control.
Specifically, when the user communicates with the user corresponding to the virtual object, the user may select a voice mode to communicate, or select a text mode to communicate, or may select a mode to communicate by sending a game instruction, or may select at least any two modes to communicate, after the user determines a specific communication mode, the user may select a corresponding interaction control, and then input corresponding interaction information, for example, when the user selects voice interaction, the user may click the voice interaction control, and then input voice information to the user terminal, and the interaction mode regarding the text and the instruction may refer to the voice interaction mode, which is not specifically limited herein.
For example, fig. 11 is another display schematic diagram provided in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 11, a graphical user interface includes a voice interaction control, an instruction interaction control (used for sending a game instruction, such as an attack instruction, a fallback instruction, and the like), and when a user wants to communicate with a user corresponding to a target virtual character through voice, for example: when the own player of the user comprises an own player A, an own player B, an own player C and an own player D, and the user selects the own player A and the own player B as the target virtual character through clicking operation, wherein the game image of the own player A can be represented by a graph filled with squares in FIG. 11, the game image of the own player B can be represented by a graph filled with diamonds in FIG. 11, the operation of clicking a voice interaction control can be performed on a graphical user interface, and then the user can input a voice signal so as to communicate with the user corresponding to the target virtual character; when a user wants to communicate with a target virtual character through a game instruction, the operation of clicking an instruction interaction control can be carried out on a graphical user interface so as to send the game instruction to the user corresponding to the target virtual character; when a user wants to communicate with a target virtual character through text information, the user can click a text interaction control on a graphical user interface, and then text information is input to a user terminal so that the user corresponding to the target virtual character can acquire the text information.
It should be noted that the voice interaction control, the instruction interaction control, and the text interaction control shown in fig. 11 are only schematic illustrations, and the voice interaction control, the instruction interaction control, and the text interaction control may be displayed at the same position, and switching among the voice interaction control, the instruction interaction control, and the text interaction control is realized by a click operation, for example: the voice interaction control displayed currently can be switched to the instruction interaction control from the voice interaction control after the user switches the interaction controls, so that only the instruction interaction control is displayed currently, alternate switching among the voice interaction control, the instruction interaction control and the text interaction control can be realized through the method, specific selection modes of the voice interaction control, the instruction interaction control and the text interaction control can be set according to actual needs, and specific limitation is not made here.
In a possible embodiment, when step 104 is executed, the game screen of the second virtual character may be rendered in a designated area of the graphical user interface according to the real-time game data and a preset transparency.
Specifically, in order to reduce the influence of the game screen of the second virtual character on the game screen of the first virtual character, a transparency may be set in advance, and when the game screen of the second virtual character is rendered, the game screen of the second virtual character may be rendered according to the transparency, so that the degree of shielding of the game screen of the second virtual character on the game screen of the first virtual character is reduced.
