YOUR INVENTORY

Which tools do you own?

We’ll include a tool’s purchase price when its container is needed.

About your estimate. Tool and container prices use your current Supplier Network level. If you buy the discount during your plan, the purchase order can change the final total. Prices and conditions come from static game data and should be checked in-game.

How to plan the Moon Sweepers upgrade tree

Use the extracted dependencies to compare a target with your current levels and tool inventory.

Choose your current and target levels

Set your existing level for each upgrade you already own, then set a target level for the nodes you want. The planner adds missing prerequisites and lists them in the summary. It treats Collector Uplink as unlocked.

A desired level at or below the current level does not add a purchase. The totals are estimates for the analyzed build and use base prices, except for the current Supplier Network discount on eligible tool and container purchases.

Understand all-versus-any prerequisites

Most recovered nodes require all of their listed prerequisites. Dust Compactor is a notable exception: any one level-one tool container satisfies its container condition. The selected container also requires the matching tool.

The planner compares alternatives using the current plan and chooses the least expensive incremental option. Mark tools you own to avoid charging their purchase price again. If a current container level is already present, the corresponding container purchase is also not repeated.

Worked example: Auto-Packer

Suppose the toothbrush is owned, the toothbrush container and Dust Compactor are not upgraded, and the current discount is zero. Auto-Packer level one requires Dust Compactor level two. The planner can add the $5 toothbrush container, $150 and $450 compactor levels, and the $2,000 Auto-Packer, totaling $2,605.

If a different qualifying container or discount is already owned, your result can differ. Auto-Packer is an upgrade that packs a full hand-tool container at the player’s feet; it is distinct from the buildable Packager.

Why purchase order can change a total

The recovered Supplier Network discount is 5% per level, up to two levels, and applies to tool and container prices. The planner applies the level you already have; it does not recalculate the sequence when you plan to buy the discount during the same shopping list.

Try the plan with your current discount first, then compare a second scenario after purchasing it. The extracted values are static and have not been verified against in-game deductions.

Frequently asked questions

Does Dust Compactor require every tool container?

No. Its recovered requirement accepts any one level-one tool container, along with ownership of that container’s tool.

Does Supplier Network discount vehicles or buildings?

The recovered description and formula cover tool and container purchases. This planner does not apply the discount to vehicles or buildings.

Can I share an upgrade plan?

Yes. Copy a share link to reproduce the current selections. The planner also saves locally when browser storage is available; neither option reads your Steam progress.
