## Bug Description:

I created Explosive traps, and a few weeks ago I just had to put it on the ground then lure the enemy into it and it exploded, now none of the enemy npcs/animals trigger it, if I trigger it manually and damage the npc/animal, the journey step does not get registered.

1. Step 1 - Create Explosive Trap
2. Step 2 - Lure Enemy into it
3. Step 3 - Nothing happened for Step 2, so trigger it while an enemy is nearby
