Trapper now stepping in own traps
I had not played Trapper for a while and now going back to him I've started stepping in my own traps A LOT. It used to be a very rare occasion that I would be so clumsy.
Have they changed the distance from where I can see trap auras? Has anyone else had an increase in self-mutilation since one of the recent patches?

It's just easier to lose track of them when you're trying to run all over the place. You have to place them outside of your preferred travel routes.
This is precisely why I don't play trapper lol. Worst killer for me.
Their aura kinda vanish if you get too close, so you need to remember where you put them down.
You might have something - one game with trapper I went to disarm a trap near a switch that was plainly visible, and just got sucked right into it. Literally, I was standing a safe distance away then suddenly trap went off and I was physically moved on top of it. That's not latency either.
The trick for trapper now is to place traps in places where survivors run to get a sight advantage against killer and loose him/her like the cornfields, place your traps in the corn and make the perimeter your hunting ground, they won't stand a chance.
It's a problem because I never remember where I've put them and if I put one at a jungle gym, I'm not going to see it until one of us (usually me) runs into it. I don't remember the auras disappearing in earlier patches. I don't even know if it is a bug.
