⚠️ Eco v0.14 is coming — the next major update reworks upgrade modules, so some of these numbers will change. They reflect the current version. What’s changing →
  • Simpler tiers: the 1–4 tiered upgrades become a single Basic / Advanced / Modern upgrade each.
  • Permanent upgrades: a module placed in a workstation is permanent — no more swapping lower tiers out as you progress.
  • Power transitions: a module can change a station’s power type/draw (e.g. a Modern upgrade moves a sawmill from mechanical to electrical power).
  • Talent-integrated: modules now use the same bonus/talent system — any talent benefit (power, labor cost, recipe unlocks) can come from a module.
  • Cheaper to upgrade: with the multi-tier parts gone, fully upgrading a workstation costs significantly less.

We’ll update this calculator shortly after the update releases.

Notes

The Froth Floatation Cell is an advanced crafting station used by miners to concentrate ores, producing higher-tier concentrates for Gold, Iron, and Copper. It also crafts the Mining Modern Upgrade, which improves mining efficiency. Because its operation generates wet tailings as a byproduct, place it near a dedicated tailings storage area to avoid ground pollution, which can reduce nearby housing value and fertility.
