Moon Sweepers Capsule Catcher: price & capacity
Capsule Catcher costs $1,500 with 100 kg capacity after patch 1.0.4 — required for continuous J.O.O.N.A.S. capsule delivery in Moon Sweepers.
What the Catcher does
J.O.O.N.A.S. launches filled dust capsules toward the nearest Capsule Catcher. The catcher’s job is to receive those capsules and hand them to your conveyor network — it is not a Pressure Chamber, Stone Press, or depot substitute. Pairing details continue on J.O.O.N.A.S.. Hub: data hub.
Checked October 27, 2026 (1.0.4).

| Spec | Value | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| Purchase price | $1,500 | Multi-source (KeenGamer, Sportskeeda, whisperofthehouse, Sportskeeda Joonas article) |
| Capacity after 1.0.4 | 100 kg | Official (1.0.4 patch: catcher glass shows dust; capacity increased to 100 kg) |
| Typical bundle with J.O.O.N.A.S. | $20,000 + $1,500 = $21,500 before extra belts | Multi-source arithmetic from guide prices |
Placement and routing
KeenGamer and whisperofthehouse agree on the operational loop:
J.O.O.N.A.S. → Capsule Catcher → conveyor → processing and/or Depot
Inspect output direction before committing a long belt. A catcher that receives capsules but has no outgoing route still stalls the automation story — the robot may keep launching while your income stays flat if belts never reach a paying intake.
Official 1.0.4 also improved J.O.O.N.A.S. so it no longer needs a dock trip for every capsule and keeps working when players are away; the catcher remains the recommended unload target in every major guide.
Unverified
- Exact catcher footprint, snap rules, or max simultaneous inbound capsules per second.
- Whether multiple catchers load-balance automatically when several J.O.O.N.A.S. units fire (guides warn not to assume linear scaling — see factory page).
For endgame Catcher layouts and power on the processing side, read factory ratios. Patch wording: patches.
