let test subject monkeys spawn in being able to understand human speech - babayetu83 - 10-29-2016
as the subject suggests the test subject monkey should spawn in being able to speak and comprehend human speech/language as it is a test subject after all

Maybe give them a critter-to-spacelish translator headset that lets them do this.

I'm pretty dang sure they can? Humans can't understand them but being turned into a monkey or joining as one should still let you understand human speech. Unless this was changed in the last like week

Monkeys can understand humans currently. I'm 99% certain of this.
I'd be in favor of a handheld device or headset that works as a translator, however. Maybe robotics could craft the headsets?

Yeah and I typically use the machine translator implant if I see a monkey running around, chimpering away. It works just as well. Just throwing ideas around.

IIRC, only martians spawn without the ability to understand speech.
