GAS: Removing an AttributeSet followed by removing an active GameplayEffect results in client crash

Gameplay Ability System

Standalone:

Removing an attribute set and then removing an active gameplay effect that has a modifier for an attribute from that set results in a crash. Currently, one must remove the gameplay effect before removing an attribute set.

Related server-client problem:

Removing a gameplay effect and then removing an attribute set at the same time on the server does not guarantee the same order of operations on the client, since the replication order of SpawnedAttributes and ActiveGameplayEffects is not guaranteed. When SpawnedAttributes replicates to a client before ActiveGameplayEffects this results in an attribute set being removed before the gameplay effect - this results in the same crash as in the standalone case.

Replication order is never guaranteed so this poses a problem for server-side code that calls RemoveSpawnedAttribute and RemoveActiveGameplayEffect at roughly the same time.

Repro project instructions

In the repro project I've done what's described below and the following hotkeys are bound:

• 1 = adds attribute set on server
• 2 = adds gameplay effect on server
• 3 = remove gameplay effect on server
• 4 = remove attribute set on server

1 2 3 4 works as intended. 1 2 4 3 causes the crash.

Standalone scenario

• Create an attribute set MyTempAttributeSet with an attribute MyTempAttribute
• Create a gameplay effect GE_MyTempEffect that adds +5 MyTempAttribute in its Modifiers. Make its DurationPolicy infinite.
• Make a hotkey to construct a UMyTempAttributeSet and add it to AbilitySystemComponent by calling ASC->AddSpawnedAttribute. Also make a hotkey to remove that attribute set.
• Make a hotkey to apply GE_MyTempEffect to self. Also make a hotkey to remove it.

Start PIE as standalone. Try the following order of hotkeys:

1. Add the attribute set
2. Add the gameplay effect
3. Remove the gameplay effect
4. Remove the attribute set

Observe that everything works as intended. Then try:

1. Add the attribute set
2. Add the gameplay effect
3. Remove the attribute set
4. Remove the gameplay effect

Observe that a crash happens at step 4, as the gameplay effect removal logic assumes that the attribute set exists.

Second scenario

A bit harder to repro, but this is the source of the user reported crash. When server-code removes a gameplay effect and attribute set in the same tick and in the correct order (first GE, then attribute set) - this can happen out of order on clients since replication order is not guaranteed. To repro this, make all hotkeys execute their logic on server only by introducing server RPCs. In the repro project this is set up.

The two replicated attributes of AbilitySystemComponent that are relevant are ActiveGameplayEffects and SpawnedAttributes.
