Dammit, no time to properly analyze… Was the man shouting to him or to alert the 'troopers? How much had he seen? If Cassian's blaster were still in his hand, would he have to shoot him?
—That at least he can answer. His blaster isn't in his hand, he's not going to take the time to draw it again, and he does not want to kill (again) if he can help it. Strategically, logistically, or personally. This isn't clear and he won't unless it's clear.
Okay, guy seems to be addressing Cassian, not yelling past him; seems trying to be helpful but not in on the full picture… including Tivik… A sympathizer? Fine, start with that. Get clear of troopers then decide how much else to share, like: his ship.
"Troopers coming," Cassian barked, already half past him and grasping the first of the exposed zigzagging pipes. "They'll shoot you just for being here so shut up and climb." Which Cassian himself started to do.
[OOC: sorry, I wasn't totally sure which way he meant or was going… for Cas, it has to be climbing the wall 'cause it's why he had to kill Tivik (who couldn't climb 'cause of a broken arm)—I should've explained! It's from the film. If the Doctor means "this way" into the TARDIS, please do grab Cas by the nape of the neck and shove him into it instead of letting him up the wall, etc!]
