So What Actually Is This Achievment

So basically you have to take a garden gnome from the begining of the game and put him in the rocket to stop lamarr from being lonely. However it isent that simple.

You don't. If you lean him against the door right he falls through(though you have to be quick or else he gets stuck and gets pushed inside).

While there is no "right way" to position the OG, though this is the position I used most of the game. If placed corectely he will literally never fall off.

However it isent uncomen(excspecially early before you have had practice) for him to imediatelly slide off. This isent really a problem though because this is caused by incorrect placing. I honestelly have no idea why this works, It just does.

I Placed The OG On The Table To Go Disable The Autogun And Now He Is Gone

If you are like me you may have placed the OG on the table like this.

Just to have the OG be gone. This is a painful experiance(not really, disableing the autogun isent that hard). He can disapear if you place the OG in that room. I recomend placing the OG somewhere else in the other rooms.

Example of how to place the OG.

I Put The OG In The Rocket But Dident Get The Achievment

You have to close the door.

Rigth the OG in the rocket. Left the OG with the door closed.

You should get the achievment right after closing the door.

Also am I the only one who would think it would be funny if you put the OG in the rocket Kliener would have said a diferent number for the payload anamally(like 10 pounds instead of 8 and a half).
