Suggestion for Improving the New Anti-Camping Self Unhook feature
Now, I understand this mechanic is still fresh and new so take my words with minor implications as I would not want it to be too strong but not too weak either.
To start off, I believe that there is a clear flaw with this mechanic and that it is forcing killers to stay barely outside the range to the point where when the survivor can unhook themselves, they've already gone down a hook state! To counter this, I would suggest that the self-unhook meter exponentially increases if killer distance does not change. So if the killer is purposefully camping at a distance, not really moving, the survivor would still be able to unhook themselves without hitting stage 2.
Additionally, to really assist with the anti-camp measure, I think survivors should get a little bit more of a buff when coming off hook. Perhaps an increased haste affect, such as an additional 5%, only through the self-unhook meter option. This way survivors that do unhook themselves actually have a better chance of getting away from the camping killer.
I am sure there are tons of other ideas, but I think these two are possibly the best. Now, before I am called a survivor main, I do play killer mostly and do think that this mechanic still could be better. But please, let me know what you guys think!
Edit: I would also say increased time for endurance and haste on self unhook (with this mechanic)

Well, this AFC only targets and punishes FC. Don't expect anything more than that.

According to the patch-notes, AFC-unhook provides 15 seconds of Endurance instead of 10.
