Predator Change
Currently, Predator has the downside of making distant tracks hard to spot; they are kept low to the ground unless a Survivor rubs against a tree or wall. Instead, the tracks a Survivor leave should start out compact and close together, as the current Predator does, but they should spread out and grow to still be visible from a distance. Note that only the tail end will be visible from a distance. (Edit: updated image to include fade effects)

This is actually areally good idea. I see so many people just calling for a perk overhaul and new function. But this is actually good since there should always be perks in place to aid new players. This would be a great aid perk if it worked like this.
Edit: it would also be good if, as the scratch marks got more faded them they widen out
I updated the image to show the effects of fading.
Also, Survivors using Lightweight will have their tracks disappear sooner which means the tracks won't have time to spread up onto trees and walls.
That's a very interesting idea, although one thing that might be confusing is that it may look like new scratchmarks are appearing as they age and expand. If I could throw out another idea, what if it was instead based on distance rather than time? At a distance, you'd see spread out scratchmarks like you do normally, but up close they stay a single, more narrow and constant width.
