Getting the name of a game event in PostHook of firing an event?

[Mahi]

I'm trying to fire my own game event listeners after all the other listeners have been called. I'm using PostHook for this purpose, here's my code:

Syntax: Select all

FIRE_EVENT_FUNC = get_object_pointer(game_event_manager).make_virtual_function(
    7 if PLATFORM == 'windows' else 8,
    Convention.THISCALL,
    (DataType.POINTER, DataType.POINTER, DataType.BOOL),
    DataType.BOOL
)

@PostHook(FIRE_EVENT_FUNC)
def post_fire_event(args, return_value):
    game_event = make_object(GameEvent, args[1])
    name = game_event.get_name()
    if name == 'player_death':
        post_player_death(game_event)
    elif name == 'player_disconnect':
        post_player_disconnect(game_event)

I'm getting this error:

Code: Select all

[SP] Caught an Exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File '..\addons\source-python\packages\custom\easyplayer.py', line 64, in post
_fire_event
    game_event = make_object(GameEvent, args[1])

RuntimeError: Access violation - no RTTI data!

Apparently this is because FireEvent function deletes the IGameEvent pointer (thanks Ayuto), and thus I can't get the event's name.

Any fix for this, or a work around to post-fire my own game event listeners?
