Drones cannot hear local speech when held in hand, storage or worn.

[subtumaka]

Ya boi subbo back with another drone bug since he got only hours in drone.

Description of issue

When a drone is being held in a hand, worn on head, or in a backpack, they cannot hear any local speech. Radio and emotes remain undisturbed.

Difference between expected and actual behavior

Should hear folk talking around you. But do not.

Get someone to pick you up (or clickdrag your sprite to theirs)

Specific information for locating

It seems to be hand, head and bags.

As long as I've been playing drone. I thought it was on queue to be fixed so I didn't bother making a bug report.
