Players disappear randomly while as Game Master
Awaiting internal Testing, NormalPublic

Description

I host a few community servers and when I login as Admin or peers as Game Master we discovered that our players randomly disappear from view until we rejoin the game. Their circle indicator does not show in the object panel, we cannot hear them, nor do they appear in the game outside of GM. If we as GMs leave the game and rejoin we can see everyone again with the same roles. It seems like other community members report the same issue.

To help troubleshoot, I tweaked my rendering settings for the JSON to lower and raise the "fog of war" distance views to see if that is the issue. But none of that seemed to help.

I'm still testing to see if the problem happens more often when we place more objects and AI elements into the game scenario. But as of right now it seems completely random.

Also, for note, it seems to happen if the server is modded or not.

Steps To Reproduce

Run a community server with ten or more units. Flip between GM and player modes often. Players will begin to disappear and will get more frequent the longer the scenario lasts.

Additional Information

I'm missing about there players in this screenshot. Towards the end of this mission I couldn't see anybody on the green team until I left and came back into game.
