Our Early Access notice on the game reflects what is still the case: We are not currently setting a date to leave Early Access, but rather focusing to implement the features we want to have for Eco Infinite (see the Eco Tree on our website), which will then allow implementing modular extensions as continued Updates beyond "1.0" that do not require touching core in the manner it does currently with many things not in place yet and features coming up that will provide the missing pieces for polish of older ones - we do not have and never had the intention to at any point release a "final" version and call it a day.

The fact that major updates still change major portions of the game rather is the reason we are still in Early Access, as major updates still introduce tons of things that change the core gameplay and are not migratable.

I'm well aware that some players would rather prefer us to set a date, but we have decided on purpose to not do that, as that objectiv... Read more

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

Eco doesn't support Steam Cloud (which is also the reason it doesn't support Geforce NOW), as savegames are a world on a dedicated server, given it is developed for multiplayer experiences. You'd need to copy over your /Steam/steamapps/common/Eco/Eco_Data/Server folder to your other PC to have the same one there with the same worlds.

If you disabled settlements, you need to enable the gain per levelup in Balance.eco with any full number value you want, to get claim stakes and papers. Not using settlements is possible, but is legacy for experienced users, hence it needs some additional configuration:
"ClaimStakesGrantedUponLevelUp": 0,
"ClaimPapersGrantedUponLevelUp": 0

You can find all info on world size here: https://wiki.play.eco/en/Server_Configuration#Change_World_Size

Note that changing the size for local singleplayer servers started through the client is not supported.

To get the same world, you need the exact same WorldGenerator.eco file, just the seed will not be enough.

You can spawn it via /give or use the /plant command to spawn them naturally. (Make sure to do a backup before you try development commands)

It would be even better to give this decision-making power to the server ADM instead of the developers, because the game was made for the players, isn't it!?

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.

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
