Don't show the "* has reconnected" message until they've actually reconnected

    It's annoying when someone unpauses because they think you're reconnected but all that you've done is start reconnecting and it will be 3 minutes before planets are built and UI has loaded. :/

    Even worse in ranked games, I think there it still automatically unpauses the moment the player reconnects and starts to load the planets.

    Yeah just show the reconnected message when you receive the first input from the player after planet generation or something.

    Edit, even better would be two messages. Player is reconnecting and player reconnected, this way you know that he or she is atleast trying to reconnect.

    +1 to this idea, can't tell you how many times the reconnect system has annoyed me.
