7.0.6 Hotfixes
[ 2018-02-10 00:29:18 CET ] [ Original post ]
7.0.6 hotfixes have been released! Find the Changelog below:
- Fixed some issues when playing on a linked steam and slg account
- Added a recovery path for players with multiple users on a server due to account linking problems. After re-linking your accounts, you will see a popup asking you which user to play with the first time you join your server. The other user will be permanently deleted. Steam linking will be re-enabled on the accounts page separately (but very soon!)
- Change admin commands to set admin/banned/whitelisted users by userid (steam OR slg) or username (if they are online)
- Attempted fix to an issue where some players behind routers with an incorrect UPnP implementation could not connect to their own local servers when NAT detection was on.
- Fixed an issue with migration that caused world migrations that werent actually needed with every server restart.
- Changed how the server performs background simulation work to reduce performance impact on players on the server
- Various optimizations to serverside performance
- Fix occupancy on the standing torch (it can no longer be placed inside walls or other objects)
- Local games now save more reliably when exiting
- Server will save and exit if you type "exit" in the console
- Added support for mods to control the logic for determining if a user can run a command.
- Fixed a bug where skillpoints were incorrectly displayed upon relogging
- Increased skillpoint gain in single player (no collaboration) from x1 to x24
- Added a bar to display progress towards the next skillpoint
- Added an option to grant a small amount of skillpoints on the completion of work orders (recommended for single player only)
- Fixed inventory synchronization when rapidly placing blocks
- Fixed an issue with the tailings cache that could cause inordinate amounts of pollution to be spread.
- Road Tool repair skill changed from Wood Construction to Road Construction
- Plant Fiber weight changed from 0.1 to 0.01
- Skillpoint cost of T0 efficiency skills reduced from (1, 2, 5, 10, 15) to (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
- Standing Torch fuel consumption drastically lowered, should now last approximate 4 times longer per torch
- Tallow Lamps can now be toggled on and off

The Game includes VR Support
Enter the world of Eco, where you must team-up to build civilization and prevent a disaster, using resources from a fully simulated ecosystem, where your every action affects the lives of countless species.
Will you and your fellow builders collaborate successfully, creating laws to guide player actions, finding a balance that takes from the ecosystem without damaging it? Or will the world be destroyed by short-sighted choices that pollute the environment in exchange for immediate resource gains? Or, do players act too slowly, and the world is consumed by a disaster that could have been avoided if you developed the right technology? In Eco, you must find a balance as a group if the world is to survive.
Enter humans into this equation, and things get complicated. It is the role of players to thrive in this environment by using resources from the world to eat, build, discover, learn and invent. However, every resource they take affects the environment it is taken from, and without careful planning and understanding of the ecosystem, lands can become deforested and polluted, habitats destroyed, and species left extinct.
In the extreme, the food supply of the ecosystem can be destroyed, along with all human life on it, resulting in server-wide perma-death. Eco is a game where the player’s actions have meaningful consequences.

A world-survival game
Eco is a survival game in a global sense, where it is not just the individual or group who is threatened, but the world itself. The world of Eco will be home to a population of thousands of simulated plants and animals of dozens of species, each living out their lives on a server running 24 hours a day, growing, feeding and reproducing, with their existence highly dependent on other species.Enter humans into this equation, and things get complicated.

- Everything you do affects the ecosystem, and players can destroy their food supply and world (server-wide permadeath)
- Create a player-run government to make decisions as a group, proposing and voting on laws
- Use data gathered from the world to propose and vote on laws as a group. Debate with scientific argumentation.
- Create a player-run economy that allows you to sell not only good but services in the form of server-enforced contracts (simulating a player driven quest system).
- Your food level determines your skill-increase rate, making food very important and tying players directly to the ecosystem from which it comes.
- A game with goals higher than entertainment. We plan to build it for schools as an augmented classroom world students share.
