Not able to use items during battle

[Meep13]

Hi there everyone!
Was hoping someone would be able to help fix my problem of why items aren't working in battle.
An example would be I would use a potion, get an error message, and then take me back to the battle menu. It would still use up my potion though.
An example of the message:
---------------------------
Pokemon Essentials
---------------------------
Exception: NoMethodError

Message: undefined method `effects' for nil:NilClass

PokeBattle_Battle:1576:in `pbRegisterItem'

PokeBattle_Battle:2756:in `pbCommandPhase'

PokeBattle_Battle:2711:in `loop'

PokeBattle_Battle:2801:in `pbCommandPhase'

PokeBattle_Battle:2700:in `each'

PokeBattle_Battle:2700:in `pbCommandPhase'

PokeBattle_Battle:2648:in `pbStartBattleCore'

PokeBattle_Battle:2647:in `logonerr'

PokeBattle_Battle:2647:in `pbStartBattleCore'

PokeBattle_Battle:2637:in `loop'

Hoping someone could figure out why it isn't working since been having issues with this for awhile now.

You need to give us more information. It's trying to test a non-existent battler for an effect. What is the state of the battle at the time of the error? Who's on the field? Single or double? Who are you using the potion on? etc.

It's a known bug, and will be fixed in the next release of Essentials.
