Allows citizens write text that is displayed to other citizens.
The Text Component allows a citizen to write text that is displayed on a world object for other citizens to read.
The Text Component can be found on Signs, Vehicles, and the Distribution Station. Text can be useful for giving directions, advertising, or just writing a friendly greeting.
For those familar with text markup, a variety of tags may be used to alter the size, color, and formatting of text.
🌱 Local AI
The descriptive prose on this wiki is written by a large language model — but it runs entirely on local, self-hosted hardware: a Gemma 4 E4B model on a single NVIDIA RTX 4070 in a home Unraid server.
Nothing you read here was generated by a commercial cloud API. The game data itself is pulled live from the Eco server; the AI only fills in flavor and gap text. Like any web server, this one keeps its own request log — including visitors' IP addresses — purely to run and improve the site; it is never sold or handed to a third party.
This wiki is one face of a larger Eco mod: Solomon, an in-world AI steward that runs the server's economy, posts help contracts, keeps a store, and answers players. The wiki reads the same live game registries and tools Solomon does — so the numbers stay true to the running world. Read more about the project →
✨ Ask Solomon
Ask me anything about the Eco game — recipes, skills, animals, biomes. I read this wiki to answer, and you'll watch me look things up.
