Man, I haven't used C++ in quite a few months now, I've gotta be rusty. I have a weird, insane person's way of doing this sort of thing, but if I was using a pointer, I'd make it a NULL pointer when unequipped, and only access the thing through a function that always checks to see if it's NULL or not. Since it's NULL, it won't be a dangling pointer. (Or if you're using another language, your equivalent for NULL: None in python, undefined in javascript, etc.)

Good luck on your project, Fenrir!

Thanks, Keiseth.
