      The Bug:

      Sniffers can sniff out and follow players from incredibly large distances.

      In some cases, sniffers can sniff out and follow players that are around 150 blocks away from them. This could be intentional, but I'm reporting it just in case.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Summon a sniffer and wait for it to begin sniffing you out (constantly adjusting its rotation to face you).
      2. Obtain a spyglass and move around one hundred blocks away from the sniffer.
      3. Circle around the sniffer and look to see if it faces you by using the spyglass.
      4. Take note as to whether or not sniffers can sniff out and follow players from incredibly large distances.

      Observed Behavior:

      Sniffers can sniff out and follow players from incredibly large distances.

      Expected Behavior:

      Sniffers would not be able to sniff out and follow players from incredibly large distances. I think there should be a limit regarding how far sniffers can sniff out players.
