Give monkeys sense of self-preservation - Revenge of Pun Pun
Someone spawned like 10 monkeys, probably from cubes, and since I didn't want to fight blob I decided to butcher them all. As I was skinning my 7th monkey, it struck me how braindead monkeys are. Pete would at least try to hoof me the fuck up, they just stood in spot and took it.
Make them more alive. Make them run away when harmed, maybe even go full chimp-out berserk mode. Real chimpanzee would be able to rip off your arms and beat you to death with them. It wouldn't affect genetics or kitchen, because monkeys would allow you to grab and handle them anyway (but not choke). And I can imagine the possibility of some tator shenanigans, like dumping a locker full of them in brig and coaxing them into attack.

Re: Give monkeys sense of self-preservation - Revenge of Pun
one time i spawned about a hundred or so monkeys in xenobiology because the monkey recycler is busted with upgrades
if i could weaponize this it would be hilarious
nah but real talk monkeys aren't that much of a threat, since a normal human punch has like a 1/4 chance of KOing them for an hour

Re: Give monkeys sense of self-preservation - Revenge of Pun
Fun fact
Last time I tried it, monkey cubes in the same container as a water grenade (such as a box, locker or crate) are activated and cause the monkeys to spill out of said container.
As soon as I discovered this naturally my first response was to roll cargotech and mail monkeybomb boxes to every destination on the mailing system.

New traitor item:
Rabid monkey cube.
Exactly the same as a normal cube, but the monkey that comes out runs around biting the shit out of people. Misc diseases optional.

Well, I put a handful of monkey cubes into a box with a mousetrap-triggered grenade containing one small beaker full of water.
Nada, nothing.
It did work when placed into the world, though. I suppose that means lockers and crates will be OK.

Goon did this, and now whenever you try to perform the ~secret monkey technique~ the monkey's innate bloodrage awakens and tries to murder you.
And guess what we have that Goon doesn't? Xenobio. Guess what xenobio does all day? Abuse monkeys.
Don't.

Re: Give monkeys sense of self-preservation - Revenge of Pun
Make on-station monkeys actually care to an extent about their existence, leave cube-monkeys lobotomized.
Maybe even make a potion/chemical that activates the cube-monkey's higher functions so you can still have monkey shenanigans.

I still have PTSD from monkeys with metal rods! DO NOT. EVER. BRING. BACK. MONKEY. SELF. PRESERVATION... EVER.
Monkeys used to have self preservation AI. Basically when you hit them, they became aggressive and hit anyone around them. At the time, metal rods were the most robust melee item in the game, so what people would do was to drag a monkey out of med-sci (now genetics), drag it to some public corridor, give it a metal rod, whack it once and run awaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy. From that point on, that corridor become a death trap as the monkey would attack ever unsuspecting crew member who went by.

Re: Give monkeys sense of self-preservation - Revenge of Pun
I don't remember exact numbers, but if memory serves, it was in the 20-30 damage per hit range. Basically in a hit or two, you'd be on the floor and waiting to die.
The damage various things did used to be much higher though. The e-sword was a 1 hit kill, extinguishers did 20ish damage, etc. So PvP damage was much higher and you could get killed very quickly. I wouldn't say it was better or worse, it was just different. Whether you think it was better or worse is more down to personal preference.

The issue with Xenobio monkeys is nonexistent because of the new consoles.
If you want to try to coax a monkey into it's death by slime then yeah, it should be able to fight back.

Re: Give monkeys sense of self-preservation - Revenge of Pun
Goonstation has something like this, monkeys will fight back when pissed off, even going as far to attack you for attacking other monkey mobs in line of sight. The worst part was they'd grab weapons too, so trying to toolbox a monkey to death could result in it grabbing a surgical saw or something and going apeshit on you, no pun intended. Glass shards at least tripped them up, since they don't' have shoes.

Sadly our monkeys aren't infected with a super virus that makes them extremely intelligent and evolves them to be capable of speech. Now a monkey picking up a gun and using it to bash people with a random chance of it discharging. That'd be funny.
