Auto-Packer packs a full tool; delivery is a separate job

Updated
Start here

Moon Sweepers Auto-Packer is described as an upgrade that creates a capsule at your feet when the tool container fills while cleaning. It is different from the Packager building you walk up to and load. A capsule appearing on the ground is a packing step; it is not proof that the dust has been sold.

Identify which system you mean

Auto-Packer upgradeTurns a full tool container into a capsule while you clean, according to the quoted upgrade text.
Packager buildingReceives a manual load at a fixed location and outputs capsules to a connected route.
Garage unloadingTransfers a vehicle load; the Auto-Packer discussion does not establish this upgrade as its prerequisite.

Choose it for packing convenience

The useful distinction is where the interruption occurs. If your problem is repeatedly stopping to pack a full handheld tool, the described upgrade targets that step. If your problem is carrying dust back or getting paid, you still need a collection and receiving route.

When a capsule is produced, keep track of where it lands and move it to your delivery route. Check the dust remaining in the tool as well as the capsules on the ground; one visible capsule does not establish the total transferred amount.

Avoid the garage and auto-selling mix-up

Replies in the October 25 thread switch between belts, garages and this upgrade, without demonstrating that Auto-Packer unlocks garage output. Do not buy it solely to fix an unrelated vehicle-unloading problem.

For a fixed intake near the work area, use the Packager guide. For a vehicle, use garage unloading. Once a capsule reaches the Hub, judge selling by credited payment.

What success looks like

You can identify the upgrade versus the building, account for the packed dust, and name the next delivery step. Ground packing alone does not complete a sale.
