OnServantDeath Event

The OnServantDeath event in ScarletCore allows you to listen for, inspect, and react specifically to servant death events in the game. This is useful for custom servant logic, analytics, servant-based triggers, or implementing special effects and mechanics for servant deaths in your mod.


Event Signature

public static event EventHandler<DeathEventArgs> OnServantDeath;
  • sender: The DeathEventListenerSystem instance that detected and raised the event.
  • args: A DeathEventArgs object containing all relevant information about the batch of servant deaths.

DeathEventArgs Properties

  • List<DeathInfo> Deaths — List of all servant deaths that occurred in the frame
  • int DeathCount — Number of servant deaths in this batch

DeathInfo Properties

  • Entity Died — The servant entity that died
  • Entity Killer — The entity that caused the death
  • Entity Source — The source of the damage/death

Basic Usage

Listen for all servant death events

EventManager.OnServantDeath += (sender, args) => {
    foreach (var death in args.Deaths) {
        Log.Info($"[ServantDeath] {death.Died} was killed by {death.Killer} (source: {death.Source})");
    }
};

Count total servant deaths in a frame

EventManager.OnServantDeath += (sender, args) => {
    Log.Info($"Servant deaths this frame: {args.DeathCount}");
};

Using a Method Handler

You can use a named method for your handler. The method must match the event signature:

void OnServantDeathHandler(object sender, DeathEventArgs args) {
    // sender is the DeathEventListenerSystem instance
    foreach (var death in args.Deaths) {
        // Custom logic here
    }
}

EventManager.OnServantDeath += OnServantDeathHandler;
EventManager.OnServantDeath -= OnServantDeathHandler; // Unsubscribe when done

Note: When using a method handler, the first parameter must be of type object (the sender, which is the DeathEventListenerSystem instance), and the second parameter must be of type DeathEventArgs.


Advanced: Accessing the Sender (DeathEventListenerSystem)

The sender parameter is the DeathEventListenerSystem instance that detected the servant death. You can cast it if you need to access system-specific methods or properties:

EventManager.OnServantDeath += (sender, args) => {
    var deathSystem = sender as DeathEventListenerSystem;
    // Use deathSystem if needed
};

Multiple Handlers

You can register multiple handlers. All will be called in order.


Unsubscribing

Always unsubscribe your handler when it is no longer needed to avoid memory leaks:

EventManager.OnServantDeath -= OnServantDeathHandler;

When to Use

  • Custom servant death logic or effects
  • Analytics and logging for servant deaths
  • Servant death-based triggers or achievements
  • Special effects for servant encounters

Tip: For more advanced death features, combine this event with other ScarletCore systems and services.
