Houndmaster's feels much better now! But..

The Houndmaster recently received some notable buffs which make her feel much better to play. She's also a lot less buggy (although there are still quite a few) However she's far from perfect.

Now that her chase mode is good, I'd like to see some tweaks to search mode.

Firstly, a lot of people, including myself, accidentally use it during chases (lol), It should definitely have its own button, CTRL would be ideal.

The haste effect should linger a bit, around 3 seconds. So if you step off the line to use an optimal path, you don't get punished for it.

When you aren't aiming at a generator, the maximum search distance is extremely short. It also takes ages to actually get it to max distance.

So the maximum search distance should be much longer, and charge much quicker. (Waiting for it to go forward, not the initial search charge)

    I have to agree here that Search power type is very weak and clunky to use and only sometimes worth a bit of something. I usualy want to avoid it since it feels kinda bad to use thanks to charging and max distance takes too long and its too short and its very random where distance will be created even when I aim directly on a gen like 24m away from me. It's clunky and not much usefull.

    I might be dumb but does the search have a max distance when you trying to target a gen? Last few days I have been trying to send the dog to gens and I rarely ever lock onto them unless close to them. I can't tell if the gens Im trying to target are too far or the power is bugged in some way. Its kinda annoying when Im going towards a gen I want to go two on the other side of the map and the power will not lock on to it all. If does than I do think the max distance should be increased and the speed for the marker to go out should be faster as well.

    They should definitely make it easier to aim search command at gens

    I agree - I am already P14 with her and the search is not user friendly.

    It doesn't really make sense go use a 2nd button to swap between 2 commands instead of simply using the 2nd button for the 2nd command.
