Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of computers, in particular to a method and a device for switching states in games.

Background

In some hand games, the game character has a plurality of forms or states, and the operation mode and the playing method are different in different states.

How to switch the state of a game character in such a game, one existing solution is: switching is performed by clicking a game character state button in the screen.

In a Transformers research boxes game, the technical scheme for switching the role state is as follows: when the current state of the role is mechanical dinosaur, clicking a role state switching button below a screen, and switching the role from a dinosaur form to an armored car form; in a similar way, when the current state of the role is in the armored car state, the role state switching button is clicked, and the role is switched from the armored car state to the dinosaur state.

Although the above technical solution for switching the character state in the transforms research boxes game has only one step of operation, in the game process, because the attention of the player is concentrated on the screen body, the character state switching button at the edge may be blocked by the finger, and in the case of many other keys, some players may not accurately memorize and click the state switching button.

It should be noted that: like reference numbers and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

At present, state switching is a common playing method in games, and an existing operating method for state switching is to give a button control, and a player clicks a button to perform state switching, as shown in fig. 1. However, when the interface content is more, more controls cannot be loaded, which results in a problem that limited interface resources occupy more. And under the condition that the priority of the state switching function is lower, a function button is added into the interface in a hard mode, so that the interface is extremely crowded, and the quality sense is reduced.

Based on this, the embodiment of the application provides a method and a device for switching states in a game and a computer device, and the technical problem that limited interface resources occupy more resources in the prior art can be solved through the method.

The touch terminal can comprise a touch screen and a processor, wherein the touch screen is used for presenting a graphical user interface and receiving operation aiming at the graphical user interface.

In some embodiments, when the touch terminal operates the graphical user interface, the graphical user interface may be used to operate content local to the touch terminal, and may also be used to operate content of the peer server.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the touch screen 230 belongs to a User Interface (UI) and that the cell phone 202 may include fewer or more User interfaces than shown.

The RF circuitry 210 may also communicate with networks and other devices via wireless communications. The wireless communication may use any communication standard or protocol, including but not limited to Global System for Mobile communication (GSM), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), Long Term Evolution (LTE), email, Short Message Service (SMS), and the like.

The memory 220 may be used for storing software programs and modules, and the processor 240 executes various functional applications and data processing of the mobile phone 202 by operating the software programs and modules stored in the memory 220.

The Display panel may be configured in the form of a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), an Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED), or the like. The touch panel may collect contact or non-contact operations of a user on or near the touch panel (for example, as shown in fig. 4, operations of the user on or near the touch panel using any suitable object or accessory such as a finger 403, a stylus pen, etc.), and generate preset operation instructions. In addition, the touch panel may include two parts of a touch detection device and a touch controller. The touch detection device detects the touch direction and gesture of a user, detects signals brought by touch operation and transmits the signals to the touch controller; the touch controller receives touch information from the touch sensing device, converts the touch information into information that can be processed by the processor, sends the information to the processor 240, and receives and executes commands sent from the processor 240.

Some embodiments of the invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below and the features of the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

Fig. 5 is a schematic flow chart of a method for switching states in a game according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 5, the method may include the steps of:

s510, providing a graphical user interface through the terminal, wherein the graphical user interface comprises a game picture, the terminal is in a first posture, and the state of the game picture is a first state.

The terminal comprises a terminal body, a terminal, a game control module and a game control module, wherein the terminal body is provided with a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface can be a graphical user interface corresponding to the game, which is provided by the terminal after the terminal starts the game, and based on the graphical user interface, a user can interact with the terminal or the game running in the terminal, so that the user can control the terminal or the game running in the terminal, and the terminal or the game responds to the control of the user.

After the terminal runs the game, a game picture corresponding to the game can be displayed in a graphical user interface. The game screen may correspond to an image of a game scene, controls for controlling the game, and other game-related information. The image of the game scene may include an image of an environment in the game, an image of a virtual object, and the like, the environment in the game may refer to a map of the game, some attachments on the map, and the like, the attachments may include ornaments, buildings, vegetation, and the like, and the virtual object may refer to a virtual article, a virtual animal, a virtual character, and the like related to the game process.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the state of the game screen may refer to the state of the game screen and/or the state of a control of the game. The details will be described later with reference to specific examples, and will not be described herein.

The attitude of the terminal may be determined based on a sensor, for example, the attitude of the terminal may be determined by an acceleration sensor, and the acceleration sensor may also adopt a 6-axis acceleration sensor.

The pose of the terminal in embodiments of the present invention may be divided by a range of pose values. For example, the range of the attitude value may be a range of a change indicating a designated attitude value, which may be an angle of rotation in the vertical direction or an angle of rotation in the horizontal direction, or the like, and when the change in the attitude value reaches the range of the attitude value, it is considered that the state is switched. The range of the attitude value may also be set according to the magnitude of the attitude value, for example, the attitude value may be an included angle between a vertical direction and a horizontal direction of the terminal, and different included angle ranges refer to different attitudes. And S520, responding to the posture switching operation of the terminal for switching from the first posture to the second posture, and switching the state of the game picture from the first state to the second state.

As one example, the first pose is a landscape screen pose and the second pose is a portrait screen pose; or the first posture is a vertical screen posture, and the second state is a horizontal screen posture. The landscape orientation may mean that the angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is smaller than a first specified value, which may be determined according to actual needs, for example, 30 °. The vertical screen posture may mean that an included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is greater than a second specified value, and the second specified value may be determined according to actual needs, for example, 60 °.

In some embodiments, the switching logic between states and gestures may include a variety of implementations.

As an example, the first posture may be bound with a first state, and the second posture may be bound with a second state, in which case, the states of the game screen may be all the first state whenever the terminal is in the first posture, and the states of the game screen may be all the second state whenever the terminal is in the second posture.

As another example, a switching order of the states may be set in advance, and when the posture of the terminal changes, the state of the game screen is switched in accordance with the preset switching order every time the posture changes. For example, the switching order of the states of the game screen is a first state, a second state and a third state, the terminal can be switched between the first posture and the second posture, when the terminal is in the first posture, the game screen corresponding to the first state can be displayed, when the terminal is switched from the first state to the second state, the game screen corresponding to the second state can be switched to be displayed according to a preset switching order, when the terminal is switched from the second state to the first state, the game screen corresponding to the third state can be switched to be displayed according to the preset switching order, and so on, the switching can be performed in a circular manner.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, there may be a plurality of corresponding gestures of the terminal, and the first gesture and the second gesture may specify two or any two of the plurality of gestures of the terminal; the state of the game screen may include a plurality of states, and the first state and the second state may specify two states or any two states among the plurality of states of the game screen.

The embodiment of the invention provides a graphical user interface through a terminal, wherein the graphical user interface comprises a game picture, the terminal is in a first posture, the state of the game picture is in a first state, and then, the state of the game picture is switched from the first state to a second state in response to the posture switching operation of switching the terminal from the first posture to the second posture. Therefore, in the game, the change between the states of the game pictures is controlled through the posture change of the terminal, so that the player can quickly and accurately switch the states, the limited space in the screen can be saved to display more valuable contents, and the user experience is improved.

In some embodiments, the determination manner of the terminal posture switching may include multiple manners, and as an example, before step S520, the method may further determine that the terminal posture switching occurs by:

step a), determining a target rotation angle of the current posture of the terminal relative to a reference posture of the first posture;

and b), when the target rotation angle is larger than a first preset threshold value, determining that the terminal is switched from the first posture to the second posture.

For the step a), the current posture of the terminal may be a currently detected posture, the posture of the terminal may be detected in real time, and a degree of change of the current posture relative to the reference posture, that is, the target rotation angle, may be determined in real time.

The reference posture of the first posture may be determined according to actual needs, for example, the first posture is a landscape posture, and then the reference posture of the first posture may refer to a posture corresponding to a case where a vertical direction of the terminal is parallel to a horizontal direction. For another example, the first posture may be a vertical screen state, and then the reference posture of the first posture may refer to a posture corresponding to a case where the vertical direction of the terminal is perpendicular to the horizontal direction.

For the step b), the first preset threshold may be determined according to actual needs, for example, the first preset threshold may be 60 degrees. For example, when the first posture is in the landscape state, when it is detected that the included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is greater than 60 degrees, it may be considered that the posture has been switched. When the first posture is in a vertical screen state, when the included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is detected to be less than 30 degrees, the posture is considered to be switched.

As an example, as shown in fig. 6, when a player holds a mobile phone in a landscape mode during a game, the character state is an initial state a. When the player wants to control the character to change from the initial state A to the second state B, the mobile phone needs to be rotated by 90 degrees, and the way of holding the mobile phone is changed from a horizontal screen to a vertical screen. If the mobile phone needs to be switched back to the initial state A again, the mobile phone needs to be rotated by 90 degrees again, and the mode of holding the mobile phone is changed from a vertical screen to a horizontal screen. The player switches the role state by changing the mode of holding the mobile phone, and after the horizontal and vertical screen switching is carried out, the role state switching is finished, and the player can continue to continue the game operation in the state.

Compared with the starting point pressing interaction, the interaction mode of switching the horizontal and vertical screens has the feeling of 'state change', and the player can link the operation with the switching of the role states more easily. The gesture of rotating the mobile phone screen is not complicated, and compared with a common hand-game interaction mode, the interaction mode is more interesting and more interesting. Some can not be more suitable for vertical screens, some can not be more suitable for horizontal screens, and the interaction mode of converting the horizontal and vertical screens can contact two scenes of the horizontal and vertical screens in the same game, which is favorable for enriching and expanding the game playing method.

In addition, when switching the state, a switching process animation may be further displayed so as to reduce a sense of anxiety due to a switching time difference, and as an example, before the step b), the method may further include the steps of: and when the target rotation angle is larger than a second preset threshold value, displaying the state switching animation in the game picture, wherein the second preset threshold value is smaller than the first preset threshold value.

The second preset threshold may be, for example, 45 degrees according to actual needs. For example, when the first posture is in a landscape state, when it is detected that an included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is greater than 45 degrees, a state switching animation may be displayed, when it is detected that the included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is greater than 60 degrees, it is considered that the posture is switched, and then the second state is displayed, or when it is detected that the included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is less than 30 degrees, it is considered that the posture is not switched, and then the first state is displayed. When the first posture is in a vertical screen state, when the included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is detected to be smaller than 45 degrees, the state switching animation can be displayed, when the included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is detected to be smaller than 30 degrees, the posture is considered to be switched, the second state is displayed, or when the included angle between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the terminal is detected to be larger than 60 degrees, the posture is considered not to be switched, and the first state is displayed.

In one embodiment, when the posture of the terminal is switched, a specified state among a plurality of states in the game screen may be switched. For example, the state of the game screen may include a state of a target virtual object in the game screen. When the posture of the terminal is switched, the state of the target virtual object can be switched, and the state of the target virtual object can comprise the display state, the control state, the form and the like of the target virtual object. For example, the target virtual object may correspond to a plurality of forms, and the target virtual object may be controlled to be switched between the plurality of forms by the posture of the terminal.

As another example, the state of the game screen may also include controls for controlling the target virtual object. The control method for the target virtual object may also be changed in applicability due to a change in the posture of the terminal. For another example, when the posture of the terminal changes, the form of the target virtual object and the control controlling the target virtual object are both switched.

As one example, the first state corresponds to a first set of controls controlling the target virtual object, the first set of controls being for a terminal layout of a first pose; the second state corresponds to a second set of controls controlling the target virtual object, the second set of controls being for a terminal layout of a second pose.

Because the screen of the terminal is generally not in the shape of a regular polygon or a circle, the mode of holding the terminal is generally changed after the gestures are switched, so that different control layouts are set for different gestures, so that the terminal is more suitable for corresponding holding operations, and the user experience is higher. In addition, if the form of the target virtual object is changed, the control logic corresponding to the target virtual object with different forms is different, so that the different controls can be arranged to adapt to the difference. The control logic for the target virtual object may refer to logic for controlling the motion of the target virtual object, logic for controlling the release skill of the target virtual object, and so on.

In some embodiments, the state of the game screen includes a game perspective. The game visual angle comprises a common visual angle, a perspective visual angle, a first person visual angle and a third person visual angle; the first state and the second state are any two of the above-described game views.

Due to the display of the screen shape of the terminal, after the posture is switched, the visual angle of the game can be changed to better adapt to the screen, so that different visual angles of the game can be set for different postures.

In addition, the change of the game visual angle can also bring the change of the playing method, so that the change of the game playing method can be realized through the change of the terminal posture, and the user experience is improved.

In some embodiments, the switching manner of the game screen may include multiple manners, the switching manner of controlling the state of the game screen through switching the posture of the terminal may be an optional manner, the switching manner of the game screen may be configured in advance, or may be set during the game process, the setting process may be set on a setting interface of the game, or may be set through a switching manner control set in a graphical user interface, at this time, the switching manner control may not be located in a core region, and the core region may refer to a region where the grip posture is easy to operate. As an example, the graphical user interface further includes a switching manner control, and based on this, the step S520 may be specifically implemented by the following steps: determining whether the switching mode control is in a first mode; and if the switching mode control is in the first mode, switching the state of the game picture from the first state to the second state. Wherein the first mode is used for indicating the switching mode of the game picture as controlling the switching of the state of the game picture through the switching of the posture of the terminal. The switching manner control may also correspond to other modes such as a second mode, for example, the second mode may be switching of the state of the game screen controlled by the control.

In some embodiments, the plurality of states of the game screen may be applicable only to a specified gesture of the terminal, which may be the first gesture. For example, regardless of how the state of the game screen is switched, the game screen is only for the terminal in the landscape state. In this case, the switching of the state of the game screen may be controlled by switching the posture of the terminal. For example, when the posture change of the terminal reaches a preset condition, the state switching is triggered, and when the terminal returns to the original posture (the first posture), the state of the game screen is switched, based on which, the step S520 can be specifically realized by the following steps: and in response to the posture switching operation of the terminal for switching from the first posture to the second posture, switching the state of the game picture from the first state to the second state when the terminal is determined to return to the first posture again.

As an example, when a player holds a mobile phone in a landscape mode in a game, the state of the character is a first state A. When a player wants to control the role to change from the initial state A to the second state B, the mobile phone needs to be rotated by 60-120 degrees, the mode of holding the mobile phone is changed from the horizontal screen to the vertical screen, then the mobile phone is rotated, and the mode of holding the mobile phone is changed from the vertical screen to the vertical screen. If the mobile phone needs to be switched back to the initial state A again, the mobile phone needs to be rotated by 60-120 degrees, the mode of holding the mobile phone is changed from the horizontal screen to the vertical screen, then the mobile phone is rotated back, and the mode of holding the mobile phone is changed from the vertical screen to the vertical screen.
