🆕 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.

The character calculator has been updated for these changes. Read the garbage & recycling guide →

Notes

The Small Stockpile is a placed 3x3x3 storage container that provides 9 slots for holding larger items, making it an early organizational solution for bulk materials like logs or stone. It must be placed grid-aligned on flat ground, weighs 500 g, and stacks to 100 in inventory. For practical use, position stockpiles near your workbench or sawmill to reduce travel time when stashing common construction and crafting materials.
