🆕 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

Explorer Pants are a wearable clothing item crafted by players, offering reinforced protection for exploring while maintaining a fashionable look. As a "Clothes" and "Product" tagged item, they fit into the equipment slot for legs and are likely used to provide some defense or utility during outdoor activities. If you plan to venture into hazardous areas, crafting a pair can help mitigate damage, though the exact protection value depends on the materials and skills used.
