Staying dead in another part of the dungeon during the boss fight.

So today I had some bad disconnection sequence and my group of very nice guys decided not to kick me but to continue the dungeon 3 players. Every time I was connecting back I was finding myself lying dead there while the group is fighting some boss far far away from me. And I'm like, seriously? About a time this had to be changed so the player could join the fight he never been at. I understand it requires higher programming skills, and making "Boss fight = can't res" is much easier, but to code it so this rule will stay in reasonable Boss range also doesn't requires a NASA coder.

Thanks.

    Or, run with a group that will resurrect you like they should during a boss fight.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    They are far away, I don't expect them to stay there wait for me to connect back. Leaving me in a group is already a huge gesture.

    He DCd and was dead far away from the boss fight, the other players weren't the issue.

    Some boss fights lock players out if they're not inside when the fight begins.

    I'd be more concerned about your "bad connection" myself.

    How long, exactly, were you DC'd for?
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    They should be able to res you, then you can accept the res on reconnecting.

    That is the only code that needs to be fixed if does not allow for this.
