🆕 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 Stockpile is a large, grid-aligned storage container that occupies a 5x5x5 block footprint and provides 25 storage slots for bulky items. It is a placed world object tagged as a storage container, making it useful for organizing materials that don't fit in smaller crates or shelves. For efficient logistics, place stockpiles near your crafting stations or along transport routes so you and your neighbors can quickly access bulk resources.
