🆕 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 Smelting Skill Scroll is a consumed item that grants a player access to the Smelting specialty tree, allowing them to craft and use furnaces and other smelting stations. After the Smelting skill book is discovered via Research at a Research Table, right-clicking it produces unlimited skill scrolls for the server to trade or share. A practical tip: since one book supplies infinite scrolls, a town only needs one researcher to craft the book, making scrolls a high-value but low-scarcity good to stock in a store for new industrial players.
