• This issue is not solved in a development build

Describe the bug
On death, you get instantly kicked from the server and you can't rejoin because of the death screen. It's a game breaking bug with ProtocolLib installed and since my server is currently 1.20.4 and 3 plugins rely on it, it's an issue. Though, it only persists when someone dies.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go in-game
2. Die in some way (it doesn't matter)
3. See error

Expected behavior
I expected to die and just be able to respawn.

Additional context
Nope.

Some more information:

When I am on version 1.20.4, it seems to work fine but with ViaVersion and ViaBackwards, it seems to break on any other version.

When removing ProtocolLib though, everything seems to work fine.

bump

i have the same issue 2 months now...
when you die, this error appears...
i tried to remove protocollib and the error disappeared. (but i need it because i have oraxen and orebsfucator).

did u find the solution of this error? please msg me back.

an error like that generally happens when another plugin creates a malformed packet. does this still happen when you remove SimpleScore?

ok.. i ll try simplescore again and if it doesn't work ill just try all the scoreboard plugins until it doesn't appear the error..

nice.. without simplescore it doesn't appear.. but do you have any recommendation for scoreboard plugin that doesn't make this error appear?

can't speak to any specific plugins. just wanted to verify that this wasn't caused by PL itself. sometimes it appears that way since we enable that behavior and the problem goes away by extension
