Method and apparatus for controlling movement of virtual object in game, electronic device, and storage medium

An electronic device, comprising:

• a memory, configured to store computer executable programs;
• and
• a processor, configured to execute the computer-executable program stored on the memory to perform a method for controlling movement of a virtual object in a game, wherein
• the game comprises a game scene and the virtual object in the game scene,
• at least a part of the game scene is displayed in a user interface of a user terminal, and the method comprises:
• providing a movement control area and a movement state control in the user interface;
• controlling the virtual object to be in a first movement state in the game scene according to a first touch operation, wherein the first touch operation is a sliding operation, wherein an initial touch point of the first touch operation is located in the movement control area and a final touch point of the first touch operation is located on the movement state control;
• and
• in response to the virtual object being in the first movement state and in response to detecting a second touch operation on the movement state control, controlling the virtual object to change from the first movement state to a second movement state in the game scene, wherein the second touch operation is a touch operation occuring after a touch point of the first touch operation leaves or disappears from the movement state control;
• wherein when the first touch operation with the final touch point located on the movement state control ends, the virtual object remains in a sprinting state, and at the same time, the movement state control is changed from a virtual sprint control to a virtual sliding control.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, wherein a computer-executable program is stored on the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, and the computer-executable program is configured to, when loaded and executed by a processor, implement a method for controlling movement of a virtual object in a game, wherein

• the game comprises a game scene and the virtual object in the game scene,
• at least a part of the game scene is displayed in a user interface of a user terminal, and the method comprises:
• providing a movement control area and a movement state control in the user interface;
• controlling the virtual object to be in a first movement state in the game scene according to a first touch operation, wherein the first touch operation is a sliding operation, wherein an initial touch point of the first touch operation is located in the movement control area and a final touch point of the first touch operation is located on the movement state control;
• and
• in response to the virtual object being in the first movement state and in response to detecting a second touch operation on the movement state control, controlling the virtual object to change from the first movement state to a second movement state in the game scene, wherein the second touch operation is a touch operation occuring after a touch point of the first touch operation leaves or disappears from the movement state control;
• wherein when the first touch operation with the final touch point located on the movement state control ends, the virtual object remains in a sprinting state, and at the same time, the movement state control is changed from a virtual sprint control to a virtual sliding control.
