Ah that's something I missed. Very cool. I always thought it was odd for someone to sneak claims in different areas just to claim resources, like surface coal.
It also will also incentivize people to group as publics as well, as you need to form a town to get notably more claims. The gameplay will be vastly different as of it's current design.
The setting you talk about is in Difficulty.eco and called "PlayerExperiencePerSpecialtyExperience": 0.0.
Make sure to set it to really low numbers, like 0.0001 for starters, otherwise you might see flooding of stars, we don't support that setting and I don't know how it interacts nowadays.
Settlement feature is highly underrated. Will fundamentally change how servers handle governments. Very interested to see how authoritarian admins handle this
It will actually also fundamentally change how Eco is played, as you can only have claims at one area - your homestead - without getting claims from a different town and following their immigration policy or just trade with them.
We tolerate using of mods to reach the goal, but ask for such servers to be placed in the category "Strange Worlds", until we have adapted the master list to enforce that automatically:
https://github.com/thomasfn/EcoCivicsImportExportMod - Export and import civics
https://github.com/TheKye/Eco-WorldEdit - Export and import buildings
Manipulating the save game in regards to its time or using any methods to halt the time are considered a ToS violation against server list integrity and may lead to the server that used them to be removed from the server list permanently.
was looking for information about modding a server to add combat/rpg features for friend who come from minecraft and dont enjoy the only building part and find that. LOL.
We don't hide the fact that we consider and wish Eco to be a peaceful game without violence and aren't very happy about it being modded away from that. Nontheless you can of course do that if you want for yourself, but we do indeed not support publishing of such mods on our channels. :)
Not a fan of combat in every game, especially peaceful educational games with fully different goals personally either. Obviously it's not a good idea to attack me personally either and I like to be straight-forward with people.
We have a lot of 'combat' in our government and economic systems if you join a public server, we ourselves do not wish to expand it beyond that.
