🆕 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.

Notes

Brick is a tier-3 building block, fired from clay and mortar, that forms solid walls and qualifies as a high-tier room material. It is used in advanced structures like the Bakery Oven, Blast Furnace, and Mint, and is also an ingredient for modern research papers. Stocking bricks in a town store is a major milestone, as tier-3 rooms unlock the highest housing value and crafting-table upgrades, accelerating everyone's skill-point gain.
