[Game Location]

Make sure you game location is specified and correct, the error looks like it can't locate the exe file for the game. Either that, or it has a permission issue accessing the game. (try right-click run as admin and see if that fixes also)

If I switch between "Table" and "Tiles" too many times it then stops showing any lobbies at all; I also notice that if I click on the lobbies it seems to refresh the list also.

A couple days ago there was some weird thing where the same lobby appeared like 8 times in the custom games list; I think ever since then the custom games list no longer refreshes; the co-op game list still works fine.

If I click between "Table" and "Tiles" it will show lobbies; but if I leave it on just "Table" when I first start the client it will only show 1-2 lobbies or none at all; clicking "Tiles" it then shows the normal 12+ lobbies.

keep in mind that you'll get to play another game, although they ruined that one, hopefully you have plenty of other games to play. For extreme cases, I Foe the user and keep a notepad with user names and why they are foed; if you look at the lobbies open, a frownie face will show up next to foes; This has saved me from joining a couple games where the play has the note of "lagged real bad and refused to leave" etc etc.

thank you very much; this isn't what I am seeing, but it helped me recreate it somewhat. I did some tests with 80 gcs.
If I use spread move alone, the units will still bump into each other- but they do get closer than usual. If I use spread move to clump them up as much as possible, then tell them to get into formation- they will stop bumping into each other and overlap- that is what I see people do, but I can only do it in formations; is there a way to use formation move where all the units go to a single spot?

I also noticed that the units all need to be in the same 'formation' in order to not bump into eachother; I do recall that the game I played where the guy had like 200+ gcs, he never micro'd them and they did all change direction together like it was 1 group of units.

Is there a mod that does this? (allows 'Formation Stacking' where all units are told to go to a single spot (like Spread Move) but they retain their 'Formation Stacking' so they freely overlap.)

Hello, I've seen this done several times and have not figured out how it is done; please let me know if this is a game mechanic- how do I do this?

I've seen people have like 4-5 gcs almost on top of eachother, i've seen 2 experimental battle ships (tempest) stacked so they look like just 1 with 2 guns; how is this done? I've noticed sometimes when units are getting into formation they will seem to walk thru eachother more liberally; but what I've seen looks like the units have been told to move- and their collision box becomes almost nothing.

Any advice or tips on this would be great, I'd especially would like to know if this is not allowed in ranked games.
