You were right, the problem IS double freeee-ing
i found the other place it was in the enter_player_game() function... i dont
see exactly how that messes it up. But commenting it out leaves a memory
leak, because when i copyover, it calls the enter_player_game() function and
will skip the part where it frees the memory. But, i will not often spam
copyover 900000 times with 500 people on so it shouldnt pose a big problem.
but if you've got a solution, i'd appreciate it.
