drops crashs the server if pipeworks-pipe burst EditReportQuote

[RonnyBarthmann]

every time a pipe in pipeworks burst my server hangs in a crash-loop because of the drops mod

i need to disable drops, restart the server and after the aftermath, enable drops again ...

the Log says:

is there any fix for this on the way ?

or is this only happening on my server ?
