🆕 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.

Notes

The Wooden Barge is a mountable vehicle and storage container used to transport goods across water. It fits into the mid-game logistics chain, providing a way to move bulk materials along rivers or coastlines where land vehicles cannot easily travel. A practical tip is to load the barge directly from shoreline stockpiles or stores, as its storage capacity makes it efficient for moving heavy loads like stone, lumber, or ore between docks.
