Every object has a specific tile in it that determines authorization, that one needs to be covered.

Let the server owner know to reach out to us at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]), the symbol shows the server does no longer react.

You are just unable to kill as many animals as you need to beat the respawn, no matter how many people you have. It just doesn't work correctly currently.

We plan to release the update containing the fix this week, it is currently in public playtesting.

The issue only occurs when towns have their foundation deeds around specific coordinates, so moving away from the 0 border would also help and is the reason why only very few towns are affected.

I hope something about this changes in the future, a lot of servers wont give out land claims to anybody who isn't farming or gathering, (at least of the 4 servers I've been on) you basically have to be running your own town or managed to convince somebody to spare some.

That sounds like a political problem that needs to be solved on the servers.

"Support Status of Eco on different Operating Systems:

Windows 10+ (64 Bit): Supported.

Windows 10+ (32 Bit): Supported until Update 9.6 - No longer supported or provided for later Updates.

Linux: Unsupported. Development builds available and provided as-is without warranty. We recommend to use Proton. (Server: Supported.)

Mac without M1: Unsupported. Development builds available and provided as-is without warranty.

Mac with M1: Unsupported. Development builds not working at all.

Steam Deck: Unsupported. Compatibility: Playable, no adjustments made.

Windows: Works.

Linux: Development build available and provided as-is without warranty. "

That still applies, there is no plans to ever support ARM and hence also no Mac. We may want to support the Steam Deck in the future, which could lead to Linux support, but that is not currently planned either.

No, the intention is to build separate housing from your personal one for renting out.

If you play in singleplayer and use the recommended "NoCollaboration" preset, you will gain claim stakes and papers that can be used anywhere without needing a settlement when consuming skill scrolls as well - like it worked in Update 9.

In singleplayer you only need claims for your house to receive housing points and for some machinery like the sewage filter.

Hi SLG-Dennis,
Now, my question is - in continuance of nicopatche - how did you guys do it differently with the STEAMDECK, considering it doesn't have the computational horsepower to run a server parallel ...

This might be due to you using a very old CPU not supporting newer instruction sets. There is a workaround in Update 10.0.5, available as a testing branch in the steam branches for the game (but not compatible with release servers). Does the same happen for singleplayer as well?

Can you explain how influence works with reputation and the bathrooms? How are they built and how much reputations grants influence? How do I get reputation for our town?

That depends on the settings of the specific server. The general way it works is that for every X culture you gain 50% towards the maximum influence, e.g. a diminishing return, as you always get another 50% of the remaining span of influence you can still achieve.

Bathrooms give direct culture points instead of housing points when used on cultural deeds, though that is limited.

The main way is to make museums with pictures and get them rated by other players. Reputation from players in the own settlement does not contribute much to culture, you'll need people from outside.

can you give me the procedure for an admin ?

/objects edit -> Laws -> Find the law and edit it.
Be aware that any changes made in there apply immediately once you changed something, not when you press the apply button.

I wouldn't call that shoulder shrugging, but the inability to do anything for what is broken on Twitch. Our posts after the initial ask for waiting a bit pretty clearly specify that when our website shows connected (and we only know about a single issue that can cause that to not work, which is asian characters in the twitch username and going to be fixed soon) you will receive the drops, even when Twitch shows "Connect" on their side and you do (or rather can) not claim them manually. Which indeed is an issue at Twitch that they were even after four weeks of outreach unwilling or unable to provide any more solution than literally "Wait. It will resolve itself" or "Restart the whole campaign".

Every single person that has a successful link on our website as of our database got their drops, no matter what Twitch shows - you find them in void storage once joining a server, the swirly icon in the bottom right corner, to the left of the minimap.

The good news is that th...

For the most part I do agree. Got a full 1GHz overclock on it which stacks it up near a 7700k in performance with hyper threading off. Runs Minecraft all the mods server without reboots for weeks just fine with increased view distance. Did better than bisect hostings servers that's for sure lol. Just using what old hardware I have about. Utilization doesn't usually go above 30 40 percent on the server whilst were in game and the ssd reports maybe 2% utilization as well. (Only time it's at 100% is during bootup; outside of world generation tasks which only used one core for some reason. So that took 10 minutes to generate a world)

World generation is the only task on the server that will use all cores. Not sure why it didn't for you, I was not able to reproduce that. Minecraft servers even with mods never had too much of a cpu need for me, it was always limited by RAM. Only issues i had with that is when mods had optimization problems or recursive loops, that could take tickrate down a bit.

This works as intended. Renters can use any appliances on a rented deed and place their own ones.

They won't. They are intended for development and QA purposes and are solely available for that, my statements above still stand.
Comment

Eco servers need high frequency single core cpus, they only use very few cores outside of world generation. The CPU you use, while at least a high frequency one, is very old and weak.

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".

There is nuclear fuel hidden in the game, that's all I'm going to say :)
