🆕 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

A Waterweed Seed is planted to grow waterweed, though it provides no direct nutritional value itself—eating it yields zero calories and no carbs, protein, fat, or vitamins. Because it is compostable, you can recycle it rather than store it indefinitely. If you need to plant waterweed for food or ecosystem purposes, these seeds are the starting point, but they will not help improve your diet-driven skill-point gain.
