iN OPERATION where you have to escort the battery to the power plant

[BOIM]

i tried everything and every combinations on the 2 monitors and the battery is not moving. What do I miss ?

[ShadowArcanist]

You actually have to stand next to it to escort it once you have the tracks in the right direction.

[Exterminans]

You don't, I just did this mission today and never left the middle platform. It should just start going on its own once the tracks are set. It can take a bit until it gets going though, sometimes as much as one minute after setting

[TooManyMcNuggies]

You gotta escort it, use the TWO terminals to swap tracks, and even then, there is a bug that turns a console off ruining the mission.

[Mints]

You have to stand near it so it moves and rotate the tracks when it reaches a junction.

Yep as the others have said someone has to be near it, it also has to have the power prongs facing the direction you want it to go.
