🆕 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 Mortared Granite Bench is a 2x2x1 seating object that contributes 1.5 housing value to a room, categorized as a Chair-type furniture piece where each identical bench placed in the same room adds diminishing returns (50% of the previous bench's value). It must be placed inside an enclosed room with at least 6 m³ of free volume to register. Craft this bench from the Mortared Stone Bench recipe as a straightforward early seating option to improve housing quality, but to maximize overall room score, avoid clustering many identical benches in one space.
