⚠️ 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 Screw Press is a mid-to-late game crafting station that produces metal components like Copper Plates, Iron Plates, and Pistons, which are essential for building wheels and transportation. It requires placement inside an enclosed room of at least Tier 3 with 12 m³ of free volume, and it accepts Advanced and Mechanics Advanced upgrade modules to reduce resource and labor costs. When placing it, ensure your room meets the material tier and volume requirements first, and consider crafting or purchasing upgrade modules to make production more efficient.
