Skull trap spell doesnt work

It doesn't want to set off. Not when I walk by it nor enemies. It just stands there. Is it a bug?

    There's no bug with the Skull trap. In my game it works just fine.

    The thing is the skull floats in the area and doesn't set off until any creature comes within 5 ft. of it. 5 ft is a rather small distance.

    So in your situation both your characters and enemies just don't come close enough to the skull.

    I think it happened to me too once.
    I don't know why, it usually works fine.

    Yeah it works now. It's odd, didnt work before. Yeah, i know how it works, it just didnt want to activate itself, a giant was walking right through it.

    It can take awhile to actually figure out the range of the trap but it is a really useful spell when it does hit.
