I'm ok with losing loot to a mistake, but this is ridiculous

Went into a key run with everything prepared. My only purple shield, purple backback, bubble, claymores, good weapons, you name it. Spawned in right next to the key room so I decided to trigger the secured resources so I have an alarm system in case runners approach, at least from that side. Heard gunfire so I went to the roof to investigate, making sure to only peek out for a short time because I knew there was a sniper commander.

As soon as I started moving slowly I knew I was dead, but that didnt stop me from panicking lmao. Not shown is me spamming the heal button in the hopes that I could outlast the lag and get to cover, but nothing happened.

Now this very well could just be my connection, I do live in Australia of all places, but I still think that mild connection issues shouldn't be as damming as they are. Maybe against runners sure, but it might be a good idea to make disconnecting players invisible to bots? idk. This was after a 2 hour play session where my connection was fine the whole time.

...also ignore the fact that this is my first post on this account. I made a new one because reddit doesnt let you change your username, my old account was very active in this subreddit before I replaced it.
