You know what to do

This doesn't feel like I'm activating the ladder! You said you would walk me through it.

But now what??

[andromedroid]

The ladder does not activate. I told you this already.

Now move your higher foot to below your lower foot. Adjust your hand grips if needed.

[richbirbboy]

You said you would show me how to use the climbing action though?

The gripping things though, is a thing I can keep doing and stopping in sequence.

[andromedroid]

Teruv you are climbing right now. Just keep moving your feet down like you have been. That's all there is to it. Eventually, you will reach the bottom deck.

[There is a significantly longer pause here]

I wanted to go to the top deck to speak to the captain. Am I using the wrong ladder, or something?

Was I on the top deck all along?

[andromedroid]

[The pause before Andi's response is several milliseconds longer than usual. Teruv why are you like this?]

Checking your transponder location.

You are on the second deck. You want to go up.

So just.

Do what you were doing, but in the other direction.

UGH

This is so bad.

Gravlifts are so easy to use compared to this.

I know my ancestors evolved from arboreal species, but your ancestors are toasters, and I don't ask you to heat bread.

[andromedroid]

You did ask me to heat bread for you. Yesterday morning at breakfast.

[richbirbboy]

...sorry, I was hung over and you were closer to the bread. And I'm used to servant robots but I promise not to treat you like one anymore.
