How to read your numbers

  • Tap a deployed drone in-game — its panel shows the cash it earns per time unit; convert that to a per-minute figure and enter it above.
  • Fleet multiplier covers pet, platform and global bonuses (a fleet stats panel showing 13.57x was observed in July 2026 footage) — multiply them together and enter the total.
  • The what-if plan assumes extra drones earn the same per-drone rate you entered; footage shows Dock Platforms capping extra drones at 6.
  • Mine a Planet's internal income formulas are unpublished — outputs here are arithmetic on your own inputs, not official game rates.
  • Your inputs are saved only in this browser (localStorage) — nothing is uploaded.

Fleet Income Optimizer

"How do I make money fast?" is the most asked question about this game, and the honest answer is that it depends on numbers only your own save can tell you. This tool takes the per-drone earnings and fleet multiplier from your game UI and projects them out to per-hour and per-day income, then lets you compare that against a planned setup with extra drones or a new boost. It is arithmetic on your inputs — the game's internal income formulas have never been published.

Fleet Calculator FAQ

How do you make money fast in Mine a Planet?

Income comes from four stacking sources: how many drones you have deployed, how much each one earns per trip, your fleet multiplier from pets and platform bonuses, and the ore band your planet has unlocked. Fleet size is a direct multiplier on everything else, so adding drones tends to beat any single stat upgrade early on. Run your current numbers against a what-if plan here before spending.

How much does the fleet multiplier matter?

A lot — it scales your entire fleet at once. It bundles pet bonuses, dock platform bonuses, and global buffs into a single figure, and a fleet stats panel showing 13.57x was observed in July 2026 footage. Because it multiplies rather than adds, a multiplier upgrade is usually worth more than the same spend on one drone's stats.

Do drones keep mining while I am offline?

The official description calls the drone swarm a 24/7 auto-miner, so the fleet keeps working when you are not. How offline time settles has never been stated — full rate, reduced, or capped. The per-day figure here assumes your full active rate, which makes it an upper bound rather than a prediction.

Which upgrade should I buy first — Mining Power, Cargo, or Speed?

The official description names those three as the fleet stats, but per-level costs and effects are unpublished, so there is no universal order. The one structural rule worth knowing: a full cargo hold stalls a drone completely, so if your drones are sitting idle waiting to unload, Cargo or Speed will beat Mining Power regardless of the price tags.
