`unordered_set::erase` invalidates the pointer that was erased. https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/container/unordered_set/erase.html > References and iterators to the erased elements are invalidated. Other iterators and references are not invalidated. I also tested with a fresh C++ code file with `-fsanitize-address` and, indeed, the pattern of code of using an iterator variable to erase and then accessing through it reliably explodes. --- What prompted this is that I have just had a completely random segfault crash originating from `SDL_Scancode ()` (????????) while playing the game. Here's the gdb backtrace (yes i play this game in debug build in gdb at this point lmao): ``` (gdb) bt #0 0x0000555556b39558 in typeinfo name for SDL_Scancode () cortex-command-community#1 0x0000555555ae47aa in RTE::MovableMan::Update (this=0x555557453f50) at ../Source/Managers/MovableMan.cpp:1618 cortex-command-community#2 0x000055555567597c in RunGameLoop () at ../SourceMain.cpp:354 cortex-command-community#3 0x000055555567658a in main (argc=1 argv=0x7fffffffdc88) at ../Source/Main.cpp:468 ``` The last sensible location in that backtrace is right after the erase. Nothing seems to be broken with this applied. --- There are comments and code around these spots that this commit touches that are apparently to work around the same issue I experienced. They're probably redundant/unneeded any more lol
