Spine Chill's terror radius tracking should be split into 3 zones, instead of being a gradual fill
Spine Chill's terror radius tracking should be split into 3 zones, instead of being a gradual fill. We were told spine chill got terror radius tracking for accessibility reasons, which means it should mimic the terror radius noise levels. According to the wiki, the terror radius noises are split into "three equidistant radii". Why is Spine Chill giving accurate information down to the meter, when the terror radius noises are split into three equidistant radii?
If a survivor repairing a generator, or for whatever other reason isn't moving, the new spine chill tells the survivor exactly when the killer is moving towards or away from them, down to the slightest meter. This is much more information than terror radius accessibility.

I was thinking about this, as well. Right now, you can even use it to tell the exact moment killer drops chase without the need to look back. This effectively removes the ability for killers to fake chase which causes a survivor to think he's being chased and run away from the gen area for a short time. It also removes the ability to catch SWFs off guard when their buddy in voice chat is reporting that they are being chased.
currently it is used as a terror radius indicator for people that are hard of hearing or deaf (said so in last devlog).
after an actual solution has been implemented for players with hearing impairment that is not a perk, spine chill will be reworked/lose this feature
It's currently doing way more than being a terror radius indicator. There are only 3 terror radius levels, so a terror radius indicator should also only be showing 3 levels.

The 3 terror radius levels you mention just refer to the music, each level adds a new layer to make it more complex. But the actual terror radius still gradually increases in volume the closer the killer gets to you, so what Spine Chill currently does accurately reflects that.
