To receive your revenue, you must do around 30 minutes of active gameplay. The game will not count any time you are idle.

Ways to Increase FrontierNav Revenue
Earn Probes via Exploration Research Probes for Credits Mining Probes for Miranium and Resources Booster Probes to Increase Output Chain Probes of Same Type and Grade

Earn Probes via Exploration

The Basic Probes, which are unlocked when you install a FN Site, will only produce 50% of its potential revenue.

Always try to replace it with another probe to optimize your passive credit and miranium gain.

You can earn them by raising your Survey Rate, completing missions, or opening treasures.

How to Increase Survey Rate

Research Probes for Credits

If you add a Research Probe to an FN Site, it will raise its revenue production. Add it to FN Sites with a high grade in Revenue.

A FN Site is graded for three categories: Production, Revenue, and Combat Support. Each category has a letter grade for how much output they provide. From best to worst, the grades are S, A, B, C, E, F.

Unlock Scenic Viewpoints for Better Revenue

There are certain locations that boost the revenue of a FN Site. These are called Scenic Viewpoints.

By discovering one, you will instantly add 2000 credits to the FN Site's revenue.

Mining Probes for Miranium and Resources

Each FN Site will also produce miranium and a chance to gather any resources available in the area.

To raise miranium output and increase the chance to get precious resources, install Mining Probes to FN Sites with a high Production Grade.

Booster Probes to Increase Output

Another probe you can use to maximize revenue is Booster Probes. They will increase the function of any linked probes.

Use these when there are FN Sites with poor grades or you want to further improve a linked set of probes.

Chain Probes of Same Type and Grade

Chain Combination	Production Increse
3 Probes	+ 30%
5 Probes	+ 50%
8 Probes	+ 80%

If you link together the same probes on a line in the FrontierNav map, their overall output will increase by how many are in a chain. They must also be of the same grade.
