"Received missed or reordered chat message from server" string doesn't make logical sense

The en_us source string multiplayer.disconnect.bad_chat_index "Received missed or reordered chat message from server" doesn’t make logical sense, thus making it confusing to players and difficult to translate.

Specifically, the part "Received missed chat message from server". I think this is trying explain the following:

  • Server sends messages 1, 2 and 3

  • Client receives only messages 1 and 3

Upon receiving message 3, the client concludes that message 2 is lost, and therefore disconnects. In this case, the client "Didn't receive a missed chat message from the server", or simply "Missed a chat message from the server". The missed message was never received, so it would be erroneous to call it that.

Maybe I misunderstood how this error message can be triggered and the source string is logical. In that case, please provide more context in Crowdin to make it easier/possible to translate.
