🆕 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.

The character calculator has been updated for these changes. Read the garbage & recycling guide →

Notes

Camas Bulb is both a crop seed, planted to grow a Camas plant, and a raw food item. It is a versatile ingredient used in many recipes such as Camas Bulb Bake, Camas Paste, and salads, and is also required for crafting Agriculture and Gathering Research Papers. Because it is low in total nutrients and completely lacks vitamins, eating it raw provides poor nutrition for your skill-point gain; it is better used in cooked dishes or as a compostable item.
