#5251: a headless dedicated server logs a NullPointerException on player death - Terasology/Inventory's CharacterInventorySystem. resetDropMark() calls nuiManager.getHUD(), and nuiManager is null on a server, since there's no UI. The handler is already annotated @NetFilterEvent(netFilter = RegisterMode.CLIENT), specifically to exclude exactly this case - but the annotation never actually worked for headless servers. ## Root cause RegisterMode.isValidFor(isAuthority, headless) computes: (isAuthority ? validWhenAuthority : validWhenRemote) && (!headless || validWhenHeadless) For RegisterMode.CLIENT, validWhenAuthority=true (a listen-server/ single-player process is simultaneously its own authority and a client with a UI, so CLIENT-filtered handlers are meant to still run there) and validWhenHeadless=false (the actual "not on a headless process" exclusion). Both EventSystemImpl.registerEventHandler() and EventSystemReplayImpl.registerEventHandler() call this with the headless parameter hardcoded to false: netFilterAnnotation.netFilter().isValidFor(isAuthority, false) so the "!headless || validWhenHeadless" term always evaluates true regardless of whether the process is actually headless, and CLIENT- filtered handlers register and run everywhere the authority-side term allows - including headless dedicated servers, which is exactly the one case the annotation exists to exclude. ComponentSystemManager already does this correctly for class-level @RegisterSystem filtering, sourcing isHeadless from context.get(DisplayDevice.class).isHeadless() (HeadlessDisplayDevice returns true) - the two per-method @NetFilterEvent implementations just never picked up the same value. ## Fix Thread the real DisplayDevice.isHeadless() value through both EventSystemImpl and EventSystemReplayImpl, via their @Inject constructors and the EntitySystemSetupUtil wrapper classes that construct them. No changes needed in Terasology/Inventory - its existing @NetFilterEvent(netFilter = RegisterMode.CLIENT) annotation was already correct. ## Verification :engine:compileJava and :engine-tests:compileTestJava both clean. EventSystemReplayImplTest and PojoEventSystemTests pass (the former updated for the new DisplayDevice constructor parameter). Also ran the full integrationenvironment suite (18 MTE test classes, 34 tests, exercising the @Inject-wired EventSystemImpl/EventSystemReplayImpl construction paths this change touches) - all pass, no regressions. No test reproduces the exact reported NPE, since that needs a real headless dedicated server plus the Inventory module's UI-dependent handler, not something covered by engine-side unit/integration tests.

… harnesses This PR's own changes made EventSystemImpl (via NetworkEventSystemWrapped/ RecordingEventSystemWrapped) require a DisplayDevice through gestalt DI, so isHeadless() can gate @NetFilterEvent correctly. Production wiring already provides one via LwjglGraphics/HeadlessGraphics, but every pre-MTE test harness that builds its own ServiceRegistry and calls EntitySystemSetupUtil.addEntityManagementRelatedClasses() directly did not - so gestalt's DI failed with DependencyResolutionException for nearly every entity-system/persistence/network/chunk test in engine-tests, both unitTest and integrationTest. Fixed at the two shared bases (HeadlessEnvironment, TerasologyTestingEnvironment, which together cover most of the failures) plus the handful of standalone test classes that roll their own ServiceRegistry, mirroring the mock already added to EventSystemReplayImplTest.java in this PR's original diff. All mocked as headless=true, matching what these harnesses actually simulate. Verified: engine-tests:unitTest and :integrationTest green for the affected classes, engine/engine-tests checkstyle clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
