Will bots retain the perks/tokens when they replace a disconnect?
If a survivor manages to get 5 tokens of Autodidact before disconnecting, will the bot be healing super quickly?

The better question is, there are some perks that bots can't use.
What happens if a survivor DCs with those perks?

Probably just not use the perks/they may just get disabled for the bot entirely.
as to stacks - I would assume those would stay. Would be great to get official confirmation on these questions though. Which probably we will get either when the PTB is ready or in one of the upcoming dev streams (they said they want to do these more regularly again, hopefully with new format of Q&A streams)

I think it's fair and a great addition to the game that bot can replace survivors who's dc but how this is going to happen ?
THe bot replace the suvrivor in the same situation ? let's say the survivor dc while on hook, the bot will be on the hook ? and if someone dc during the mori animation, the bot will be killed with the mori or not ?

I don’t see why it shouldn’t be this way, yeah

Because BHVR you know...

Yes, and it would be fair.
The other 3 survivors would still be in the same boat whether the killer moris a player or a bot.
The bot-fill is supposed to help in situations where a survivor disconnects on their first down or because they were chased first. The bot takes the hook or the chase while the others can continue rescuing and repairing as normal instead of the 3v1 if there were no bot.

So no more DC-ing for hatch when slugged then? I wonder if the bot will take over from the "downed" position or if they re-spawn elsewhere.

Nah, gotta be more specific? I don’t remember any situation that would be similar where BHVR implemented something that would be as illogical as survivor bots respawning randomly? (Except for obviously possible bugs which aren’t intended in any way)

The bot should take over and be in the dying state.
But! What happens next after the bot recovers?
Does the bot relentlessly crawl toward the last remaining survivor, giving the killer free tracking?
If there are only 2 remaining survivors, the bot should be programmed to stay and wait, or crawl to the nearest pallet and wait, not give away the last survivor's location.

What I want to know is, if all the survivors DC, does the killer have to complete the game against four bots.
Because that would be pretty funny.

Funny, but fair.
Some killers would argue that they don't want to play against four bots because there is no actual human to witness their skill and prowess so what's the point; just end the match.
Some killers have been complaining for years of being robbed of adepts, achievements, and challenges because of survivors disconnecting before the match can play out fully.
The only way for BeHaviour to please both groups would to be to add an option to end the match early, unpenalized, if all the humans have quit.

This is pretty much what happens when I play nurse, lol. Just as well, maybe I can start running bp offerings with her without losing net bp lol
