*[0.13.3][Twinsen] First Steps character death error

I saw a couple bug reports on this that didn't get resolved, here is the precise way to reproduce it.

1. Start the First steps campaign, level 2.
2. Follow the tutorial until you get a message to inspect the wooden chest.
3. Don't inspect the wooden chest.
4. Walk north until a biter kills you.

Expected result: You have been defeated...

Actual result:

I think there is something similar in First Steps 3, but I didn't try to figure out the sequence to reproduce it.

Similar bug reports:
[Pending] early play in demo mode, when bug enters (First Steps 2, reproducible in 0.12.35 demo with steps given)
[Pending] LUA Error when saving (First Steps 3)

How to reproduce in First Steps 3 (2 variants):
(1) play until the Get resources (75 iron, 30 copper) objective, get killed by biters (crash in control.lua:242)
(2) play until the "I should make a submachine gun" player message, get killed by biters before crafting one (crash in control.lua:389)
Both times 'character' is nil.
