If not, it should have a Range of 1. What's that limitation called? Making it work like melee attack seems... well very weird, to say the least.
What Cone does is it fills an area that starts 1 yard wide at the caster, and expands to the maximum width (Cone is a leveled enhancement) at the end of the Max range. So if the Max range is 20 yards, and the Cone is 5 yards, then it'll be 1 yard wide at 1-4 yards, 2 yards wide from 5-8 yards, 3 yards wide from 9-12 yards, 4 yards wide from 13-16, and 5 yards wide from 17-20. To have a DnD-style Cone that's as wide as it is long, you'll need to take the Cone enhancement at a level equal to Max range. For example, Range 5/5 yd (-25%), Cone 5 (100%).
