Eco Dev Tracker

As Pandorian mentioned, there is a #media channel on our discord: https://discord.gg/eco

The #culture-log is part of the cultural contest running on White-Tiger where Game Masters can grant extra culture for aesthetical effort in builds to settlements, similar to "Hogwarts house points".

You can reset the tutorial in the ESC menu at the tutorial options.

We were finally able to reproduce the issue and it will be adressed in the next patch.

In Update 10 you don't gain any claims or stakes anymore by default. What you gain on singleplayer can be configured in Difficulty.eco.

It unfortunately went down in the middle of our night, so we only saw the problem this morning when the first staff able to deal with it was back to work.

We had a report of this before, but when loading the savegame ourselves, the issue was not reproducable. Can you provide your savegame? If so, please send it to [email protected] with a link to this thread. We need Game.eco, Game.db (or whatever your save is called) and the UserTextures folder zipped in a folder and accessible for download via GDrive or something else that doesn't require permission to download.

Should be fixed.

Because such groups are doing their thing on their own and aren't cooperating with anyone else, but building a secluded community only to their own interest and detrimental to the gameplay experience for everyone else. That is a very valid problem. Other people are not not working towards the goal, just because a premade group with much more time and the organization benefit that comes from game experience and voice chat can rush quickly through content. It's not within the intention of the game and finding solutions to this problem is something we're looking into.

The branch 10.0.5_testing includes a workaround for this.

Items placed by other people go to their void storage when they are evicted from residence. The player that placed the stuff can find it by clicking on the swirly icon in the bottom right corner, to the left of the minimap area.

What do you mean with "small server disconnection"? The disconnect icon appearing? Local game or server? Any more details you can give?

You can just skip the tutorial with the little "x" on its icon, no need to progress the tutorial elswhere. I have noted the issue internally to be tried to be reproduced and fixed.

We are releasing a PTR for Update 10.0.5 today that will contain a fix for this based on what we found with some players helping us out. It needs more extensive testing then hotfixes as it also includes a ton of other fixes and changes to settlements mechanics to address a few issues reported over the last weeks. You will be able to find all information on our discord once it's out: https://discord.gg/eco

No, that is not possible when settlements are active. You can use your homestead as an outpost and buy property in other towns, but the point in Update 10 is to form localized communities restricted to their local natural resources.

No, you will need to spawn seeds or plants in via /give or /spawnplant. Make sure your WorldGenerator.eco was updated from the template as well, that is necessary to do on every update.

We offer prior versions as betas, so you can select the "10.0.3" beta branch by rightclicking Eco in Steam -> Properties -> Betas to connect to servers that didn't update yet.

No, please note the .x - it was planned for a later minor version of this update.

No, that is not possible. Better build a dam quickly.

Ocean is solely determined by the world layer.

We do actively communicate issues live on Discord: https://discord.gg/eco
We also have a status page: https://status.play.eco/

We cannot use a simple Steam verification, as our authentication is not done client-side but server-side, as usualy for multiplayer games. We also have many players not using Steam for playing at all that purchased the game on our website. Steam wouldn't work with those even when authentication was done client-side. (Which doesn't work for multiplayer games, given we need to check... Read more
