Method and apparatus for guiding task in game

An electronic device, comprising:

• a processor and a storage medium storing a machine-readable instruction that is executable by the processor, when the electronic device runs, the processor is configured to:
• determine, in response to a selection instruction for a task panel, a target task from at least one task, acquire one or a plurality of task locations for accomplishing the target task in a game scenario, and provide a task guidance map on a graphical user interface;
• wherein a content displayed on the graphical user interface comprises the task panel, and the game scenario, and the task panel comprises the at least one task;
• and
• display a target task identification in the task guidance map, wherein the target task identification comprises at least one of the following:
• a location identification located in the task guidance map indicating the one or the plurality of the task locations, or an orientation identification indicating a direction to the one or the plurality of the task locations;
• wherein a map region displayed on the task guidance map is a map region determined according to a first location of a virtual character in the game scenario;
• wherein the processor is further configured to:
• display a character icon corresponding to the virtual character on a location corresponding to the first location in the task guidance map;
• control, in response to a sliding operation acting on the task panel, movement of the character icon;
• display, in response to that the character icon moves to a region where the location identification in the target task identification is located, a navigation route on the task guidance map, wherein a starting point of the navigation route is a location corresponding to the first location in the task guidance map, and an ending point of the navigation route is a second location where the location identification is located;
• and
• control the virtual character to follow the navigation route.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium configured to store a computer program, when executed by a processor, the computer program cause the processor to implement a method for guiding a task in a game, wherein a graphical user interface is provided through a mobile terminal, a content displayed on the graphical user interface comprises a task panel, and a game scenario, and the task panel comprises at least one task, and the method comprises:

• determining, in response to a selection instruction for the task panel, a target task from the at least one task, acquiring one or a plurality of task locations for accomplishing the target task in the game scenario, and providing a task guidance map on the graphical user interface;
• and
• displaying a target task identification in the task guidance map, wherein the target task identification comprises at least one of the following:
• a location identification located in the task guidance map, or an orientation identification indicating a direction to the one or the plurality of the task locations;
• wherein a map region displayed on the task guidance map is a map region determined according to a first location of a virtual character in the game scenario;
• and the method further comprises:
• displaying a character icon corresponding to the virtual character on a location corresponding to the first location in the task guidance map;
• controlling, in response to a sliding operation acting on the task panel, movement of the character icon;
• displaying, in response to that the character icon moves to a region where the location identification in the target task identification is located, a navigation route on the task guidance map, wherein a starting point of the navigation route is a location corresponding to the first location in the task guidance map, and an ending point of the navigation route is a second location where the location identification is located;
• and
• controlling the virtual character to follow the navigation route.
