Default Distro Spawner Tweak

I have asked this before (way before) but hey with a new version around the corner I figured I'd throw it out there again.

I think it make sense to add a SpawnRange property to the spawner as in my Spawner2 script. The property of course would limit where the mob can spawn independent of where it can move (HomeRange.) This should not be a break from osi compatibility because they can both be set to the same value as in the current distro spawner.

Just saying...

Currently Range controls both where the mob can spawn and where it can wander. This can be a problem in long narrow areas such as hallways or rivers. My suggestion is to provide one setting for where it spawns and another for where it may wander.

David's Spawner2 rocks.... I have tried many of the spawners out there but have settled on Davids... I too would like to see range and homerange added to the distro.
