🆕 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

The Industrial Barge is a large, mountable water vehicle with 96 storage slots and a single seat, capable of reaching a top speed of 10. It burns Liquid Fuel at 150 J/s while operating and emits 0.7 air pollution PPM/hour, making it a significant polluter. Because it can be placed on unowned land, it is a practical mobile base or cargo hauler for water-based logistics, but its pollution output means operators should consider the environmental impact on shared waterways.
