🆕 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

Wild Mix is a prepared food used both as a meal and as an ingredient in the Elk Taco recipe. With 800 calories and a broad nutrient profile weighted heavily toward vitamins, it provides a favorable base for the balanced diet that drives the skill-point gain multiplier. Because its nutrients are heavily tilted toward vitamins, pairing it with foods rich in carbs, protein, and fat will help achieve the even nutrient ratios that maximize the XP bonus.
