auto return to flight

if you get discoed now, you come back (no matter your alt) to a bent prop and a death 100ft in the air with zero airspeed...

Last time I got discoed was because my network went down. At the time I was flying a 262, badly shot up by a Spit 14 that had bounced me while I was flying 262s with Mike76 as my wingman.
I had one engine out, the other one smoking bad, missing a rear stab, one cannon out, and wounded. I discoed about 8k out from my field that I diverted to. Came back a few minutes later and landed I think 2 kills and saved my precious perk points. I rarely have over 200 perk points, so losing a 262 is a big deal to me.

If we got rid of disco restores, a lotta people would be hurting. Sure there will be people who abuse it, but they're honestly few and far between.

Skuzzy hasnt worked for HTC for years.

As for the issues, Id check the connection to the internet. If your dropping out that much you have a big issue.
