Its an mp focussed game and as far as i know, devs cant be bothered changing it either. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sad cuz then there are games like icarus that has 2 different skill tree, one specifically made for single player peeps.

Hopefully they do the same with eco one day. With the newest eco 10 update i think you cant even expand your land plots without having an actual town started with multiple people, which absolutely kills the game for us single player folks. How am i gonna expand if its limited by some game mechanic that relies on multiple people? I guess ill just go f**k myself instead of playing this game. Cuz this game aint sp friendly at all.

I cant be bothered dealing with capitalist and economy and coorporate mumbo jumbo bullshit. The game plays and feels great to play as a survival game by itself, i just wish it could give a lil m...

With settlements off, is government done the old way or do we have to set things up a certain way even with settlements off?

The foundations and levels don't exist, anything else works the same - you do need to use the Update 10 tables.

Is the setting that they should be set to 0 or is the setting that we should be entering some numbers here?

Do partial amounts count such as if we wanted another claim stake to be available on the 2nd level could you do "ClaimStakesGrantedUponLevelUp": 0.5,

You need to add full numbers, bascially what you want to give.

No, that is not possible.

Curious, what are those configs for and what does it mean by LevelUp?

They are the only way you can get additional claim stakes and papers without settlements. Levelup means a new star.

Anybody having problem with Twitch drops? My Eco accounts says that both steam and twitch are connected, but Twitch still shows "connect" button that sends me to Eco page that requires me to login even though I'm already logged in.

That's on twitch side, we were told "waiting" will resolve it by itself.

"SettlementSystemEnabled": false for Features.eco.

Make sure to configure these two in Balance.eco as well, otherwise you can't get claims:
"ClaimStakesGrantedUponLevelUp": 0,
"ClaimPapersGrantedUponLevelUp": 0

What is the maximum character length for the DetailedDescription ?

If i remember correctly it does not have one, once all info for the server display panel goes over a technical limit, the description will be cut off. That includes the server name and any variable info.

That's the correct one, here the one from one of our official servers:

"DetailedDescription": "This official ECO server is hosted by Strange Loop Games in the EU. The current cycle runs for the time frame noted in the server name.\n\nPlaying on this server is subject to rules viewable in its Ecopedia (F1).

Works fine here, what is too long will simply not be displayed.

PingPerfect should be fully ready in any case, given they are our official partners. Any host can get the files starting with release and could try earlier versions for a long while. There is tons of template changes they may need some time to update.

The post does not violate our rules, it does not state the name or any hint on how to join it. It's akin to the posts where players search for a specific server recommendation which are also allowed.

Post violates rule 4, deleted.

Actually servers with premade government tend to last longer, as they are mostly concept community servers. So there is no relation to that. See White Tiger.

It's the same with a pre-made server-wide currency, it just removes a large portion and progression from the game.

If you want to play the game as intended, go with allowing natural formation of towns, countries and federations.

Just wanting to note something here:
Eco is a framework. Server admins providing customized experiences to try out, including with some kind of presetup is not unintended.

Depends on what the players like and how much ability they have to determine things within a pre-defined government framework.

Excellent thanks. I was able to pull the server files. If my players switch to that beta they won't be locked into the White Tiger server will they?

No, but note that migrating from these versions to the final release is not supported and that the playtest branch is solely developed with the respective official playtest server in mind - migrations between playtest updates are not supported, updates may happen whenever the official server needs them and you may be left with a unusable save at any time, as the official server is developer supervised and may get fixed not in the updates.

I don't know on which server you play - so I can't say much to that, aussie players on official servers were doing well (enough), they are hosted in Europe. Don't get me wrong - I'm not saying you won't have issues with high ping, just that the issues you do usually get don't tend to be problematic in the game Eco is.

The only error I got was when UPnP was enabled. Then I got a error stating the UPnP mapping wasn't created. Disabling UPnP on the server config got rid of that error.

Otherwise, no error. Just states it cannot connect

Yes, but what is the exact error it shows when it can't connect? (It creates a logfile)

Have you tried connecting via the server id? Do you have an IPv4 address from your provider, either natively or through a tunnel? Eco servers do not work with sole IPv6 connections, in such cases you need to get a IPv4 some way or host a server on a connection that does offer it.

Unfortunately not anytime soon.

What's the actual error you are getting?
Those online tools are not really suitable to diagnose any problems, once Eco is running, it might simply not be accepting unformatted requests it doesnt expect.
