🆕 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

Crispy Bacon is a prepared food item made by cooking raw bacon, offering 800 calories with a high fat and protein profile but no carbs or vitamins. Because it lacks vitamins entirely, relying on it alone will give you the worst nutrition balance modifier—halving your food-based XP gain—so it is best paired with carb- and vitamin-rich foods as part of a varied diet to keep your skill-point earnings high. With only a 72-hour shelf life, it is not ideal for long-term storage, so craft it in small batches for immediate consumption or short meal prep.
