KB of pilots who dropped from games

Ive noticed time and again that whenever I quit a game or drop from it due to stupid internet connection issues, my KB is reset to 0 when I re-enter the game.
Should it be made in a way that if a player drops and rejoins, his/her KB (and oxygen level) will remain the same as before?

It's just frustrating to know that our hard earned KB can be diminished by losing our internet connections.

the reason that is there is so that people can't quit to preserve their high kb and come back later when they won't be PKd

Makes sense - the program has no idea if you dropped unintentionally or yanked your network cable out.

I can see some people trying to save themselves by "dropping" to save their KB.

For the same reason you end up in a randomly placed pod if you drop when out of base. If you drop when in base you will end up in the hangar screen.

It would be nice if you drop while in base to keep your KB, I can understand losing it in the field though. Probably not worth your time coding.

Indeed.

Although the worst time I seem to always drop is in the middle of the enemy nans popping them all defending from a bomb run.

>.<

I sign back on thinking "oh god I hope we saved the base" and feel guilty (and have a long walk) if we didn't.
