Moon Sweepers Ride-on Sweeper: cost, hopper & upgrades

What is the Ride-on Sweeper?

The Ride-on Sweeper provides seated cleaning for $1,000. Its 500 kg hopper and 2 m sweep make it a larger collection vehicle than the walk-behind Push Sweeper.

How does it compare with the next vehicle?

The Lunar Sweeper costs $2,500 and carries 1,200 kg. Stay with the Ride-on if 500 kg trips suit your station route; consider the larger purchase when frequent returns interrupt cleaning. A new Garage costs another $200 if you do not already have one.

Its upgrade prices are listed below for this model. Compare the next Hopper or movement level with saving for another vehicle. Shared player upgrades in the Upgrade Matrix are a separate purchase system from Garage modifications.

How do you keep deliveries moving?

Park on the Garage’s collector pad, then send the silo’s output onto a conveyor to processing or a station intake. Follow the first full load through that route before increasing the hopper.

Cruise Control holds the selected speed so you can concentrate on steering; Quick Release shortens unloading. Neither fixes capsules waiting at the end of a belt. If the silo backs up, inspect its outfeed and final intake connection. The factory calculator helps compare collection with processor demand once you add sand or Moonstone production.
