How do you operate a cleaning robots?

[LordHellscream]

After disabling all the potential conflicting hacks Pescado had listed, I was able to install and start the game without much of a problem.
Now i havent really get into all the business thingy yet, I bought a robot station started cranking out toy robots trying to get some talent badges on robotic crafting
Now I got a bronze badge, then the options of making cleaning robots and gradening robots are available
I made a cleaning robots, now i put it on the ground and there is no action available for it!
is it because its "faulty" cuz i didnt get any message saying anything actually went wrong...
so how do i start the darn thing?

Do you need to buy it a docking station?  I don't have the game so that's just a wild guess.

If its faulty you should be able to repair it.  Try clicking on the base and not the actual robot.

Were you able to put it on the ground without using moveobjects? I managed to kill two robots by moving them and their bases separately. It seems that the hand's 'grabbing' is weird with robots and you have to aim at the base rather than the robot itself. But if you did all that already, I'm out of ideas...

yea figured out as well
I forgot to turn moveobjects off and moved the robot from the pad thingy, ended up have to sell the crafting station and buy another.
