🆕 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.

Swirl Vase

WorldObject

A vase made with glass to brighten up your home.

Notes

The Swirl Vase is a glass decorative object that increases housing value by 2.5 when placed in a room, and it can hold flowers for added utility. As a Decoration-type furniture, each identical vase placed in the same room contributes only 40% of the previous item's value, so mixing different decorations rather than spamming the same vase yields a higher total housing score.
