We tried to queue a custom game of 3 players and apparently one of the sides seem to be missing goalie (despite it being set at the top)
#Can't start a 3 player custom game due missing goalie

Can we please get the following on this.
- Your in game name.
- A copy of the log from the game this happened.
- Video of the issue if you got it.
I imagine something done in how you joined the lobby or moved players might have impacted this one.

How did everyone join into this custom lobby? Walk me through them launching to being in the lobby and starting up the session.
Also, if you can reproduce it again, ping the thread, I enabled some extra logging temporarily for us to explore this.

How did everyone join into this custom lobby? Walk me through them launching to ...
I pressed the "+ INVITE FRIENDS" button, scrolled through the list of friends and invited them one by one and I pressed the START button after they were all ready. I don't know what else to add
weak fox
And all users were on PC?
round laurel
yes
weak fox
Perfect, thanks for the information.
I needed to confirm the join paths as there are several:
- Lobby codes
- Ody friends invites
- Platform invites (for consoles)
round laurel
fortunately lobbies with 1 and 2 players work fine, can't say anything about 3, 4, 5 and 6 players (did not have tested yet)
weak fox
And 3 player lobbies are working fine for me so far.
No one was switching teams or anything were they?
round laurel
only I switched from blue team to red team
weak fox
Okay lemme check that out.
Okay, so something is happening, but not quite the same as what you were seeing.
- User A creates a lobby with no spectators and 3 players slots.
- User A invites User B and User C. They accept and join.
- User A swaps themselves to team 2.
- Start match -- it silently fails for me.
Cancelling the start game (hitting the X) then searching again, seems to work though.

I may try to replicate the bug later on, but at the moment my friends have gone to sleep so I don't have two people to try it out, I will write in here/ping you if the bug will appear again like it did today
weak fox
Yeah, no problem, on your own time. Just wanna try and figure this one out.
My reproduction I had 3 times now, just didn't work on the 4th attempt so I am still missing something.

@weak fox it seems to be any custom game with less than 6 players
where the team with 2 players has to have at least one guy with flex equipped before joining
quite predictably, leaving to select flex and rejoining fixes it
weak fox
Hmmm, weird I am not seeing it, but I have always been set to flex with all my users.
I wonder if everyone was set to forward if this would happen.
Will check that next.

👍
happened a lot yesterday when i was doing customs
all of us are normally forward players so it turned into that
weak fox
It's the forward thing.
Got it!
