I was talking about this to someone, if you have pntr to x and x is deleted isn't the pntr to x pointing to invalid memory? It's just a raw pointer.

you will not get dangling pointers, trinitycore handles that for you

a nullptr is fine, you can actually check those since the value is null

What does it do to handle it? I'm looking at spell.h and it's all just raw pointers to Unit and so on.

that's very complicated and you'd need to start looking into how map updates and unloading work, but you can be sure that once the map unloads a creature or player, all references to them through things like auras and other things that the core manages for you

if you have _your own_ pointers, trinitycore does not unset those for you or anything, which is why you can never have persistent object pointers
