    Hi! I've been testing some changes on ZFM+ and I noticed something strange. When @kiaran used a "Scroll of Undead" they got bugged and wouldn't spawn on the next maps until I restarted the server. I checked the logs and this is the error I got
    Code:
    [21:24:51] <RCON> Script: Exception occurred while executing '../Mods/ZFM+1.6.1c/Entities/Items/Scroll/ScrollUndead.as'; Line 32 Column 3; in function: void onCommand(CBlob@, uint8, CBitStream@)
    Null pointer access
    [21:24:51] Script: Exception occurred while executing '../Mods/ZFM+1.6.1c/Entities/Items/Scroll/ScrollUndead.as'; Line 32 Column 3; in function: void onCommand(CBlob@, uint8, CBitStream@)
    Null pointer access
    What's weird is that, both times the error happened, it only happened when kiaran used it. I don't know why it bugs ._.

    Thanks! The wording's really different, I guess that's what caused the problems. It works on singleplayer but I'll test it tonight to see if other issues come around c:
