SnatchinBracken

SnatchinBracken modifies the behavior of Bracken enemies. Instead of instantly killing players on contact, Brackens now capture and drag players to a designated "favorite spot." This change allows teammates a chance to intervene and rescue the captured player.

• [Bug Fix] Teleporters now work perfectly fine.
