With simpler puzzles elsewhere, it's understandable to get stuck here. Here's how to solve the Atomic Battery Puzzle in Midtown Factory.

Stray Guides – Chapter 10 Midtown: Atomic Battery Puzzle in Midtown Factory

Once you've gotten past the Sentinel Drones, you'll find yourself in the control room. You can get a breather here, as there's not a lot of threats in this area. If you're having trouble getting inside, consider doing a barrel roll. Now that you're inside, solving this puzzle is easy as soon as you notice a couple of things:

  1. There are three pressure plates, so having only one follower bot is not enough.
  2. Activate the follower bot and lead it to the fence to the north side of the room.
  3. Deactivate the follower bot and jump on it so you can reach the top of the fence.
  4. Once inside, you can activate the follower bot trapped in it.
  5. Push down the lever to open the fence gate.
  6. With two follower bots, have them press the two pressure plates on the sides.
  7. This will let you roll the barrel forward to the third plate.
  8. The Atomic Battery will now be vulnerable, letting you steal it.
  9. After stealing the Atomic Battery, the factory's alarm system will go off.
  10. Head outside, and escape through the bucket zipline.

With the Atomic Battery, go back to Clementine's room to progress the story. You'd notice that the entire city is now in high alarm, so you have to be a bit more careful with your movements in the Residential Area. Make sure not to get discovered by the Sentinel Drones!
