EventPlayerDeath breaks the server

[AdMinesss]

The server crashes if I try to get an Attacker or Assister in the EventPlayerDeath event if the player becomes an observer. Maybe I should have added a check, but I expected the answer to be false or something like that Error: "ART<2><[U:1:847461507]>" ChangeTeam() CTMDBG , team 3, req team 1 willSwitch 0, 22.67 ClientPutInServer create new player controller [Kev] "Kev<3>" ChangeTeam() CTMDBG , team 0, req team 3 willSwitch 0, 22.67 Unhandled exception.

Is this in a pre or post hook? Could you provide a basic reproduction example?

omitting some code details, here is an example If you need the full code, let me know and I'll send it to you.

public override void Load(bool hotReload)
    {
        base.Load(hotReload);
        RegisterEventHandler<EventPlayerDeath>((@event, info) =>
        {
            Server.NextFrame(async () =>
                {
                    Dictionary<string, object>          event_body   = new Dictionary<string, object>();
                    Dictionary<string, object>          send_data   = new Dictionary<string, object>();
                    event_body = new Dictionary<string, object>
                    {
                        { "Assister",           @event.Assister},      
                        { "Assistedflash",      @event.Assistedflash},    
                        { "attacker",           @event.Attacker},  
                        { "Attackerblind",      @event.Attackerblind},
                    };
                    send_data.Add("event",     event_body);
                    _= client.SendMessage(JsonSerializer.Serialize(send_data));
                });
            return HookResult.Continue;
        });
    }

The values in the @event are not available in the next frame, because the event is disposed on the server. The workaround for this is to capture the variables outside of next frame and then use them inside the hook. I.e. build your dictionary in the synchronous code and then fire it from the Async next frame. Let me know if this requires clarification

I realized my mistake Thank you very much :)
