⚠️ 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

Simple Syrup is a basic food ingredient made by heating water and sugar, used primarily to craft Sweet Salad. It provides 400 calories with 12 carbs and 3 fat but no protein or vitamins, making it a poor standalone meal for balanced nutrition; eating it alone will lower your XP gain multiplier. Its 96-hour shelf life and compostability make it easy to store or dispose of excess, and it can also be left on the ground due to its "Can Be On Surface" tag.
