Are spectators supposed to be able to use any items at all?

Probably trying to refrence the Accuracy of the player.
The Targeter's edge sprites get closer together the higher your accuracy is.

Spectators are not even supposed to have any items at all. Using the give cheat as a spectator breaks that logic. So I think I'll prevent spectators from using this cheat to fix this.

It also crashes if a player, i.e., a non-spectator, has used a Targeter in MAP01 before a map change to MAP02.

1. zandronum.exe -iwad strife1.wad -host +sv_cheats 1
2. Connect a client to the server and join the game.
3. "give targeter" in the console.
4. "invuse" in the console.
5. "nextmap" in the server console.

Note: This only crashes with the software using release mode binaries. Unfortunately the debugger doesn't reveal what's going on. So this may be non-trivial to fix.

Clients don't know of their own UpgradeAccuracy and UpgradeStamina after map changes. Perhaps this could be the cause of the crash. You can see this if hud_althud and hud_showstats is set to 1. It seems that you also can upgrade your stamina after map changes, even if your stamina was full (Inventory.MaxAmount) before the map change.

Marking this resolved since spectators no longer can use inventory and the crash related to the targer and nextmap could not be reproduced in 3.1
