Virtual character control method and apparatus, storage medium, and electronic device

An electronic device comprising:

• a memory, the memory storing at least one computer program;
• and
• a processor in communication with the memory, the processor configured by the at least one computer program to:
• display a virtual scene in which a first virtual character is located and the first virtual character, the first virtual character being a non-player controlled character;
• obtain a target turning instruction in a movement process of the first virtual character, the target turning instruction being used for instructing the first virtual character to rotate from a first direction to a second direction;
• and
• control, in the movement process of the first virtual character, the first virtual character to perform multiple rotations continuously from the first direction to the second direction in response to the target turning instruction, wherein control the first virtual character to perform multiple rotations continuously comprises:
• controlling the first virtual character to perform N rotations continuously from the first direction to the second direction, the first virtual character rotating at a same rotation angle in at least first N−1 rotations among the N rotations, a time interval between every two adjacent rotations among the N rotations being less than or equal to a preset duration, the time interval being used for causing the first virtual character to rotate smoothly from the first direction to the second direction, and N being a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and being flexibly configured according to an angle between the first direction and the second direction and a model size of the first virtual character.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having a stored program comprising instructions configured to cause a processor to:

• display a virtual scene in which a first virtual character is located and the first virtual character, the first virtual character being a non-player controlled character;
• display a rotation process of the first virtual character from a first direction to a second direction in a movement process of the first virtual character;
• and
• control, in the rotation process of the first virtual character, the first virtual character to perform multiple rotations continuously from the first direction to the second direction, wherein control the first virtual character to perform multiple rotations continuously comprises:
• controlling the first virtual character to perform N rotations continuously from the first direction to the second direction, the first virtual character rotating at a same rotation angle in at least first N−1 rotations among the N rotations, a time interval between every two adjacent rotations among the N rotations being less than or equal to a preset duration, the time interval being used for causing the first virtual character to rotate smoothly from the first direction to the second direction, and N being a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and being flexibly configured according to an angle between the first direction and the second direction and a model size of the first virtual character.
