DescriptionException right at the start of the 3-player multiplayer game. Happened 6 times in quick succession.

There's Marauder debug in there, but this doesn't seem related.

Thanks!

* A further continuation of the bug that Badger was running into last night in multiplayer, it was still possible for the fast blast process to try to send squad info from the server to the clients before the fleet membership was assigned. It now detects that, waits up to 2 seconds, and then discards the data if the squad was never fully set up correctly.
** There are two scenarios here. One of them is that sometimes we might start trying to create a squad which then we decide to discard, and those need to just get junked.
** The other is that we are having a race condition within a few milliseconds or even microseconds one thread and another, and thus the main thread just needs to wait a bit. It tries every 50 milliseconds or so for 2 seconds.
