🆕 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

The Federation Foundation is a high-tier wall-mounted settlement object used to establish or support a federation government, the highest level of player governance in Eco. It requires placement in an enclosed room of at least Tier 5 with 45 m³ of free volume, and the room plots must be claimed. Before crafting or placing a Federation Foundation, ensure your room meets these tier and volume requirements to avoid wasted materials.
