Not sure how it was implemented in IWD but in BG1 the penalty for using the ranged weapons in melee range was -8 to hit...this did show up on the rolls when you display them. Thats why you would always see enemy archers or characters that had the "ranged" script frantically backing up to get away from enemies trying to close to melee distance and or switching to melee weapons.
