--Title:
Tooltips are sometimes not removed properly

--Description:
Sometimes 'Mech Lab tooltip text is not removed properly and remains over the HUD during a match (usually happens with Quick Matches);
This can also happen in Community Warfare, after selecting which planet to attack or defend;

--Location:
Quick Match; Community Warfare Lobby;

--Reproduction Rate:
Low? (depends on your timing, I guess - but it seems to happen to me once every 2 or 3 days);

--Steps to Reproduce:
01) Start a Quick Match as any Tooltip popup is about to show up;
or
01) Open "Faction Warfare";
02) (While under contract) Select a Planet as any Tooltip popup is about to show up;

--Evidence:

Can confirm this one is still happening

Yes, happened to me yesterday during my Challenge drops.

Just for one Match though, on return to the Mechlab it was gone.

You can get rid of this when it happens by hitting esc a few times to bring the game menu up, out, and up again. It should cause the artifact to be removed.

I have seen this a few times as well. Never figured out how to reliably repeat it.

Thanks for the "esc" workaround, I had just been dealing with it if/when it happens.

This works most of the time to reproduce
1. Hit quick play while in mechlab
2. Immediately mouse of a field with a tool tip before the "searching" thing appears
3. wait for game to be found
