🆕 Updated for Eco 14 — “Garbage & Recycling” — this server and these numbers now reflect the new version. What changed →
  • Byproducts: nearly every recipe now leaves waste behind, so recipe pages list byproducts alongside ingredients.
  • Garbage & recycling: waste sorts from mixed garbage down to pure materials, and can be recycled back into stock.
  • Pollution has four kinds: acid rain, chemical, soil and heavy mineral, each settling into the ground differently. Pollution guide →
  • Modules reworked: upgrades are now Basic / Advanced / Modern / Specialty, one per slot, driving the same bonus system as talents. Module guide →
  • Fresh water: machines need it — water drawn from the ocean has to be desalinated first.
  • Update 14.2 — stores: bulk discounts on sell offers, one-time buy quotas, and a full trade history in the Economy Viewer. Stores guide →

Notes

Boiled Rice is a simple, early-game food item produced by cooking rice, providing 210 calories and a modest 15 total nutrient points split entirely between carbs and protein with no fat or vitamins. Because its nutrients are unbalanced, eating it alone gives a poor XP multiplier — it works best as a filler calorie source or as an ingredient in more complex dishes like Hosomaki or Poke Bowl, which offer better-balanced nutrition for faster skill-point gain.
