⚠️ 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

Gold Ore is a raw mineral block mined from the ground, appearing in RainForest (0–70 m depth), ColdForest (55–65 m), and Taiga (65–70 m). It requires a tier‑3 pickaxe to extract and is used to produce crushed gold variants and basic metallurgy research papers. Because it spawns at deep, biome‑specific depths, miners should prioritize those zones and ensure they have the required pickaxe tier to harvest it.
