A method and device for downloading map data, computing equipment and storage medium

Abstract

The present application provides a method and device for downloading map data, a computing device, and a storage medium, wherein the method includes: when establishing a connection with the server, receiving the initial position information of the controlled character sent by the server; detecting the controlled character For the movement situation, define the position where the controlled character is detected as the first target position, and check whether there is map data corresponding to the first target position stored locally; if so, load the map data; if not, according to the association of the first target position The information generation request is sent to the server, the map data associated with the first target location sent by the server is received and loaded, and the received map data is saved. In this method, the client does not store map data, and when the controlled character moves to the first target position and determines that there is no map data corresponding to the first target position locally, a request is sent to the server, and the first target position is received and loaded. The map data associated with the target location saves local storage space.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to a method and device for downloading map data, a computing device and a storage medium. Background technique [0002] With the development of the Internet and the game industry, online games are becoming more and more popular. In most online games, map data is required. [0003] In the online games of the prior art, map data is stored in the client, and after the map data is updated, the map data needs to be updated synchronously on the client. Map data will occupy a large storage space, causing the client to occupy a large hard disk capacity. This will not only cause the player to spend a lot of time when downloading and updating the online game, but also cause some potential players with insufficient hard disk space to run the online game. Contents of the invention [0004] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a method and devic...
