[Bug] Special Snares can be set from a afar. (0813)

Problem: When you set a normal snare with a Thief, the character walks up to where you clicked and leaves the snare. However, Bounty Hunters are able to set their Special Snares from a distance, which basically means that you can use them as a ranged attack instead of a trap.

Expected Behaviour: When you set a Special Snare, the Bounty Hunter should walk to the place you clicked to set the snare, similar to how normal Snares are set.

    When i first saw it, i was wondering why is it possible. I rationalized it: "The thief throws the trap in place"

    My take on it (having never played BG2 more than a handful of times) is that special or no, unless they're magical there's no reason to be set at a distance...

    They shouldn't be ranged.

    Ok, I'm reformating the first post and transferring this to the Bug section.

    checking this one now

    [EDIT] Potentially fixed - The special snare ability now has the same range as the normal snare

    [BONUS] Thieves are no longer standing on top of the snare after they've set it.
