Android mission

[microsoftpotato]

Hi guys, I absolutely adore the game, but I'm getting stuck on the part where you have to bring the android back to filomon. I've switched to third person like everyone says, and the android still keeps falling out of my grip when I try to get on the ladder right outside the psr building. It's weird because it feels like for everyone else the issue is solved by going third person, but when i do that, the carrying doesnt feel any more solid than first person. What shld i do?

I solved the issue by throwing around the poor android, it has good aerodynamics.

Silly question, but is the Android touching the walls or floors? if it does it will drop, the answer is to either holding the android whilst climbing the ladders side-ways, or while looking directly up.

hihi, how does one climb the ladder side ways? so far it seems marie grabs on with both arms always

Turn on the grab toggle in the settings to make it easier. You can climb ladders sideways with one arm while holding the android (or any one-hand firearm) with the other.

What I did was: Climb back to the top of the tower, drop the boxes on the gates down to the level, go back down and make a small tower of boxes, then try to basketball the android up to the catwalk.
Took me an hour to achieve since one of the boxes got a collision bug and it keep flying around.
It was a hell of a ride, but a fun puzzle nonetheless.

It's tricky. It took me many tries to ascend the first ladder before I got the hang of the technique. You kind of have to not look at it not like logical reality, but more like a janky puzzle that needs to be solved. But once I got up that first ladder I had a good feel for how it works and it was fairly easy to carry the android around.

Do as Sinnoware said and turn on grab toggle, as for climbing sideways, you've got to just jump into a ladder, or any climbable surface.. sideways, it's a little awkward but it works. (Don't forget to spam your spacebar.)

Grab the android in first person
Go into third person and look to one side
then you can climb the ladder

[Greyprince]

You can jump into the ladder backwards and still climb it

Another tip Anon is to try to grab the android from the bottom, grabbing from the top seems a little "slippery" even with grab toggle enabled.

Also, if you can't manage to climb and grip at the same time you can toss the android about 2/3 of the way up, climb, grab, and toss again.

Good luck, still takes me 4 or 5 tries to do even after several playthroughs

Late followup but it's way easier to use the mall elevator, and it'll cut way down on the unnecessary climb-carrying since you only really need to do it once. Anything else on that route you can just throw her to solve, eg tossing her out of the pit in the mall before climbing out yourself.
