Map Selection and Loading Issues in Labs Lobby on PC

Status:	New
Priority:	High
Added by:	robbinwoods on July 17, '25
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	1.2 - Season 1.2

Steps to Reproduce

1. Navigate to the Labs lobby and attempt to start a game.
2. Select a custom map to load.
3. Observe that the map takes a long time to load the image.
4. Click on the loaded map.
5. Wait approximately 30 seconds and notice that the game does not proceed to the Labs lobby as expected.
6. Attempt to add the map again and click on it.
7. Wait about 15 seconds and then be booted out of the game back to the SSL screen.
8. See the message 'Disconnected due to lost connection or inactivity.'
9. Repeat the process multiple times, sometimes successfully loading the map after 10-15 tries.
10. Recently, observe that the map does not load at all, causing significant issues for hosting custom game events.

Explanation

When I got to start up a Labs lobby and make my maps. My maps take forever to load the picture and once they do and i click it. I wait about 30 seconds and then it brings me into the Labs lobby as if i never selected the map i picked. So the i go to add map again and when i click it. It sits there for about 15 seconds and then boots me out of the game back to the SSL screen and says "Disconnected due to lost connection or inactivity." its always done this. sometimes after like 10-15 tries it eventually works but recently Ive been trying and now it wont let me get into them at all which is very problematic as I own a Discord called "The SplitForge Hub" with 114 members and we host custom game events on the maps I and other map builders create. It doesn't seem to be an issue for people who are using the labs on Console. Only people on PC.
