What should be ready before buying it?

Prepare the Garage’s access and silo belts for large deliveries. A bigger vehicle extends collection trips, but the load still needs to leave storage and reach a station intake or processors before it earns money. Check that route with your current vehicle before spending $6,000.

The Lunar Sweeper costs $2,500 and holds 1,200 kg. It is a lower-cost alternative while saving for the Rover. Compare purchase cost, collection width and return travel together on the vehicle table.

Which upgrades suit the Rover?

Suction Control trades travel speed for a wider cleaning strip. Choose the setting to suit the width and travel speed needed for your current pass. The front roller’s 4 m dimension is not the same as the base 3.7 m cleaning width.

Big Hopper extends trips; Quick Release speeds transfer on the Garage pad; Floodlights improve night visibility. None increases the value of raw dust. Route deliveries through a Pressure Chamber or Stone Press when you want processed products, and use the factory guide to check ingredient and power demand before adding machines.
