⚠️ Eco v0.14 is coming — the next major update reworks upgrade modules, so some of these numbers will change. They reflect the current version. What’s changing →
  • Simpler tiers: the 1–4 tiered upgrades become a single Basic / Advanced / Modern upgrade each.
  • Permanent upgrades: a module placed in a workstation is permanent — no more swapping lower tiers out as you progress.
  • Power transitions: a module can change a station’s power type/draw (e.g. a Modern upgrade moves a sawmill from mechanical to electrical power).
  • Talent-integrated: modules now use the same bonus/talent system — any talent benefit (power, labor cost, recipe unlocks) can come from a module.
  • Cheaper to upgrade: with the multi-tier parts gone, fully upgrading a workstation costs significantly less.

We’ll update this calculator shortly after the update releases.

Notes

Acorn Powder is a basic processed food made from acorns, providing modest nutrition with 40 calories and a total of 13 nutrient points weighted toward protein and vitamins. As a low-tier ingredient, it fits best in the early game when building a varied diet — its balanced protein and vitamin content helps offset carb-heavy or fat-heavy foods, improving your nutrition balance modifier for faster skill-point gain. Because it is compostable and has a short 96-hour shelf life, store it in a refrigerator or stockpile near the kitchen and pair it with higher-calorie, carb-rich foods to maximize your XP multiplier.

Diet & XP

Eating doesn't change a food's calories or nutrition — those are fixed. What your diet changes is your skill-gain rate (XP). This estimates the rate this food's nutrients contribute. ≈ estimate; set your diet in the ⚙ Character panel.
