Computer-readable non-transitory storage medium having game program stored therein, game processing method, and game system

A game processing method for causing one or more processors of a game system to:

• move a first player object in a virtual space in accordance with an operation input by a player;
• control a virtual camera for generating a game image, in association with a position of the first player object;
• when a second player object operated by another player is present outside a range of the game image, generate a 2P icon indicating the second player object so that the 2P icon is displayed at a position that is in the game image and according to the position of the second player object;
• and
• when the second player object is in a first state,
• if a distance to the second player object from a reference position for the first player object is less than a predetermined distance, generate, instead of the 2P icon or in addition to the 2P icon, a state icon indicating the first state so that the state icon is displayed in the game image, and
• if the distance to the position of the second player object is not less than the predetermined distance, generate the 2P icon so that the 2P icon is displayed at a position that is in the game image and according to a position of the second player object, without generating the state icon.

A processing system comprising one or more processors and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media having a game program stored therein, the processing system causing the one or more processors to, by the one or more processors executing the game program loaded in a memory:

• move a first player object in a virtual space in accordance with an operation input by a player;
• control a virtual camera for generating a game image, in association with a position of the first player object;
• when a second player object operated by another player is present outside a range of the game image, generate a 2P icon indicating the second player object so that the 2P icon is displayed at a position that is in the game image and according to the position of the second player object;
• and
• in generating the 2P icon, when the second player object is in a first state,
• if a distance to the second player object from a reference position for the first player object is less than a predetermined distance, generate, instead of the 2P icon or in addition to the 2P icon, a state icon indicating the first state so that the state icon is displayed in the game image, and
• if the distance to the position of the second player object is not less than the predetermined distance, generate the 2P icon so that the 2P icon is displayed at a position that is in the game image and according to a position of the second player object, without generating the state icon.
