Two captures per turn is OK, as long as one of those is the normal replacement capture. The restriction is on the number of locust captures; there can only be one of those. This because the GAME code in the betza.txt include file represents a move as 3 squares plus one piece type to drop; the 3rd square specifies where to drop it, and if the dropped type is an empty square the piece that was sitting on it would be locust captured.
