Turn disconnected survivors into NPCs

When a survivor disconnects, an NPC with the same build instantly takes over. The skill of this NPC will be based on the Killer's rank. Although this probably won't be as good as playing with another person, it will fix the disconnect issues and it will make matches more consistant.

    While this would be neat, the husk system being implemented is already nice

    Also, your asking the devs to develop an AI. Thats kinda a heavy load.

    They have ######### AI in the tutorials. I'd be down with even bad AI playing as the husks, to waste a lil more of the killer's time.

    No, just no. This would only allow the nurses/billies to get even more free kills for PGTW. You really wouldn't want this in practice. This would also be a horrible AI since players play like idiots. You would need machine learning which would be costly and processing intensive on the host.

    They have a hard stance against not having AI, sorry

    No matter how bad the AI is, the other survivors can get more than 20 seconds of combined gen work done in the time it takes to down and hook the stupid AI. This is a case where even something that is really ######### would still be better than nothing at all.
