⚠️ 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

Beans are a raw vegetable crop that provides a protein-dense food source, with 4 protein per serving but low carbs and no vitamins, making it a useful early-game ingredient for a variety of cooked recipes such as Autumn Stew and Bean Paste. As a seed crop, beans can be planted and harvested for a renewable supply, but eating them raw on their own results in an unbalanced nutrient profile — pair them with carb- and vitamin-rich foods to maximize the diet-based experience multiplier.
