    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

      @Nomander Thanks for the tip. I had completely forgotten about this simple option.

        This is what your text looks like when I use it:

        The text highlighted on the right is unfortunately not displayed in the small tile; was it different before? I have no comparison.

              Even this doesn't fit. I don't understand what the problem is.

                  I'm afraid I don't know the answer to that. I'm seeing the three lines displayed. 😕

                    I tried switching the client to russian and resizing the window but couldn't get the same result. I noticed that in your screenshots the listed mods don't go outside of the game box but in mine it does:
                    {D95E3897-B698-4E85-92E0-12A7BD3F70E8}.png


                    I also tested some different names and got weird results in that the ui truncates text instead of using additional lines as needed:
                    "123456789 123456789" (2 copies)
                    5cb7cf3f-e498-4ff5-9b41-e77914483d99-{04FA8F6F-4119-4B63-8754-6B3293C5A255}.png

                    "123456789 123456789 123456789" (3 copies)
                    "123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789" (4 copies, same result)
                    a38d52b9-31c4-4e93-8b3b-3b2e22e6b17f-{2210DA16-6AD2-4C12-A0BB-01ABC6ADBC09}.png

                    "123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789" (5 copies)
                    "123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789 123456789" (6 copies, same result)
                    f523847b-403c-466c-ab5b-33e850e5ac8b-{17B48066-3AF5-46E3-A65B-F0F1A2B44C17}.png

                    7 copies
                    8 copies
                    c1306f12-50a9-4905-8d90-b287811b56ad-{E770524F-B62B-46B9-BFE4-106786402EC6}.png

                    9+ copies the mods text clips out of the box but no additional title text is displayed
                    5dcdb3d2-58be-4d3d-83b3-0538bd96dde5-{696C819F-B517-4458-BCC6-969A75186C2D}.png


                    So according to this test there is a chance that your text might be too long to be shown on 2 lines but too long to expand to 3 lines.
                    "SpamLandWar mode TMRebalance v10. No air/arty. New units,eco"
                    5b051949-ad04-47bc-b379-e79426985fa2-{E1F3FCDA-172B-40F3-BC39-FC5EEA24F110}.png

                    "SpamLandWar mode TMRebalance v10. No air/arty. New units, eco ddddddddddd"
                    shows as above, but
                    "SpamLandWar mode TMRebalance v10. No air/arty. New units, eco dddddddddddd" (one more d)
                    shows as
                    e782be36-f6ff-4215-9dab-83de15ce2bfc-{0455574A-039A-4AEF-B63F-BFA14F1B65FB}.png

                    I opened a github issue on the topic: https://github.com/FAForever/downlords-faf-client/issues/3458

                        At first, I thought it was a new feature where lobby descriptions can't be longer than two lines. Well, if it's a bug, it's great that we (or rather, you) found it.
