With low gravity on orbit dimension, almost impossible to use ladders. Only moving up, nor down. Is it possible turn back gravity to 5% like it was in GC2?

Not going to turn gravity back on - there is no gravity in orbit. (More accurately, you are in perpetual freefall.)

But I'll definitely look at a way to have ladders work - that seems important, ladders are a great way to move around in space. Stairs are more of a problem.

And why ladders you can go down easily with SS gravity
Not quite. In minecraft with zero gravity no way to be repelled from any side, and again, with jumping from down to up - jump is to short, i for example cannot jump through all vertical module of my space station. So using ladders is important.

Thank you radfast for response, will wait for solution. :)

Better to use ladders instead of grapple hook. It is strange to use hook inside the station...

In the meantime guys I suggest using the Dynamic Transport mod for vertical movement in your space stations.

:p Yep but I think it's strongly helpful when housing spin thrusters cause your space station could move and leave you orbiting on Earth for ever there is chance the gravity will pull you

(It's broken with ladders because Minecraft does something special with the movement controls on the ladder before Galacticraft gets to see them.)

Until the ladders are working, you can use walls to move up and down. On space stations, whenever the player is within 1 block's distance from a block - so roughly the length of the arms - it's like you are grabbing on to any handholds the wall offers, and so you can use WASD controls to move up down left or right.

Whatever 'up' means in space ...
