(modded) Can't die properly, AI shooting sound after Death

I've had this issue before, was only told to simply update SPT which didn't fix anything, then kinda stopped playing. Started playing again recently tho and it popped up again:

Whenever I died, I'd just fall to the ground, the death stinger would play and... that's it. I wouldn't get taken back to the menu like usual, I'd just lie there, forever, while the AI around me would continue fighting, forcing me to Alt + F4 and resetting all progress I made in-raid.

Also, and this might be linked, some AI using full-auto weapons would continue to fire their weapon after death, or at least continue to fire their weapon until I removed it from its original slot.

Also, on a side note, my thermal goggles no longer work cause the filter doesn't apply, which is a bummer since i spent almost 15 Million roubles on it.

Would be cool if i could get this fixed finally.

looked into it myself, issues were caused by the valknut file from battle for dormitory, which i found out isnt even required for the mod to work
