How exactly are batteries for a cargo crate spawned?
There have been a few crates that we never found even one battery for, so I can only assume that the batteries spawned up inside the ceiling or in a weird tiny cavity inaccessible without drilling to it. Usually, the batteries are within a certain radius of the crate. In maps that are extremely vertical, this can sometimes be problematic.
