Abstract: In a method for synchronizing character display, motion data of a first character over a time period is obtained. A first phase parameter for the first character at an end of the time period is determined based on the motion data and a standard action cycle for a current action that is performed by the first character. A second phase parameter from the second terminal is received. The first phase parameter is adjusted based on the second phase parameter to obtain a third phase parameter. Updated motion data for the first character is generated based on the third phase parameter. The first character is displayed based on the updated motion data.
