Abstract
This application discloses an ability aiming method in a three-dimensional virtual environment performed at a computer device. The method includes: displaying a user interface (UI) of an application program, the UI including a virtual environment picture obtained by observing the three-dimensional virtual environment from the perspective of a third-person point of view; receiving a drag operation on an ability aiming control in the UI, the drag operation from a first operating point and a second operating point that are located on the ability aiming control, the first operating point being an initial operating point and the second operating point being a current operating point of the drag operation; and displaying a three-dimensional ability aiming indicator in the virtual environment picture in response to the drag operation, an ability aiming direction of the three-dimensional ability aiming indicator being parallel to a drag direction of the drag operation in the UI.
