🆕 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.

Notes

A Fuse is a small, replaceable component crafted from ceramic or other materials, designed to safeguard electrical systems against overloads. As a mid- to late-game industrial part, it is required to construct many advanced machines, including the Computer Lab, Laser, and various industrial tables. If you are building a Laser or setting up a Computer Lab, ensure your town has a reliable supply of fuses by assigning someone to craft them in bulk.
