HoundMaster Search Radius Should Be Increased
As it stands right now, the actual affect of the houndsense mechanic is useless. All it does once applied is put a healthy survivor into the deep wound state. If they are injured it does nothing.
Plus you can only send the search command so far before it reaches max range. The only way to break the max is by sending it to a gen which lets you go map wide range. The survivors can both see and hear the dog coming and its VERY easy to react to and avoid the tiny radius.
Hound master has a 3 Add ons that require a survivor to enter houndsense to work. A Purple, A Yellow, and A green one. Even when within close range of a survivor it is very hard to hit them with houndsense to get value of these add ons (I have tried many times) but the radius is just to small and survivors can avoid it.
This essentially means a whole mechanic AND 3 add ons are useless.
My suggestion is to increase the Radius of the houndsense significantly to the size of say, Knights gaurds.

I agree - houndsense should be able to do more than what it does.

Houndsense should also make scratch marks denser, so they are easier to track, should increase the amount of blood pools and should make survivor sounds louder.
The Search radius is okayish, it could be bigger, but I'd like to have an add-on that does that. Ship Figurehead should also make the lullaby radius of the dog smaller.
