🆕 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

Crushed Coal is a processed fuel and ingredient, refined from raw coal into a block form that serves both as a high-energy fuel (80,000 fuel value) and as a required component in Steel Bar production. It naturally spawns as a block in Wetland biomes at shallow depths (0–12 meters), and can be excavated and carried on the back. Because it stacks to ten and functions as a solid, diggable block, consider stockpiling crushed coal for both your steel industry and your fuel needs—especially if your server’s steel demand is high.
