*Performance Improvements:
**Our developers have been working hard on countless internal changes for this update in order to increase the performance of Eco on a wide range of different hardware configurations. We have noticeably reduced memory consumption on clients, optimized network code, reduced the frequency of FPS spikes (micro lags) during movement and you should now have a smoother experience playing Eco. Please note that there is still more to come in the 9.X updates, as we do have other optimisations prepared and in mind that require more work and / or breaking changes that are better to be introduced in a major update.

* Relay Servers:
**For this update we added relay server support for cases where connections between client and server cannot be established in a normal way. This should fix most of the connection issues some players have experienced.
**The Network.eco config file for servers has the new option “RelayAddress” where a custom relay server can be configured (available for download as docker image from strangeloopgames/relay-server:latest). If no "RelayAddress" and no "RemoteAddress" is specified for a server then it will auto-discovery the relay server with best ping from a list of official relay servers and use it as fallback for clients who fail to connect the regular way.
*Other Improvements:
**Added auto-run function. It is disabled by default, but you can go to Key Bindings and assign a button. It works both for the character and for a vehicle.

*Bugs fixed:
**Fixed an issue that caused players to fall through rendered ground with their vehicles when above mines.
**Fixed an issue that caused changed keybindings for the moving keys to not be saved.
**Fixed an issue that made trees non-interactable or vanish during slicing and collecting.
**Fixed an issue with the french localization in regards to player currency.
**Fixed skid steer no longer interacting with tree debris.
**Fixed several server crashes.
**Fixed ModKit Issues.

'''New World Generation'''

World generation has undergone a variety of changes and improvements.  Many new parameters have been added to world generation, such as land/water balance, number of continents and islands, sizes of biomes, and number of water features such as rivers and lakes.  All of these parameters may be tweaked within the world generator config file. As a result, worlds are much more varied with specific resources only being made available within specific biomes.

In addition, we have reworked the world geology, by adding an assortment of rock types like [[Sandstone]], [[Granite]], [[Shale]], and [[Limestone]]. Certain rock types appear only in specific biomes and at specific depths. These rocks all have different uses in recipes and can be made into unique looking mortared stones. Ores like Iron, Copper, and Gold are now located in specific host rocks which will encourage you to choose the place of your settlement wisely.

Lakes have been added, and the river generator has been rewritten to have an improved look and feel to them.


'''New Plants'''

* Trees: [[Palm]]s, [[Redwood]]s, [[Ceiba]]
* Grasslands: [[Big Bluestem]], [[Switchgrass]], [[Sunflower]], [[Pumpkin]]
*Desert: [[Agave]], [[Creosote]] (Updated Art)
*Forest: [[Ocean Spray]], [[Trillium]]
*Taiga and Tundra: [[Lupine]], [[Saxifrage]]. [[Peat Moss]], [[Deer Lichen]], [[Dwarf Willow]], [[Arctic Willow]]
*Rainforest: [[Papaya]], [[Taro]], [[Orchid]], [[Heliconia]], [[Pineapple]], [[Lattice Mushroom]], [[Bolete Mushroom]], [[Cookeina Mushroom]], [[Filmy Fern]], [[King Fern]]


'''New Animals'''

*[[Mule Deer]]
*[[Mountain Goat]]
*[[Bighorn Sheep]]


'''New Skill system'''

The skill system has been simplified and reworked to encourage active engagement. While specializations will still be based on the same time-gated model as before, you no longer need to choose between improving your current specialties and gaining new ones. Instead of having multiple skills under specialties that all need skillpoints to advance, we've rolled all those benefits into an action-based leveling system. For example, players who choose to take the hewing specialty will be able to hew logs with increasing efficiency and speed as they complete orders rather than being forced to wait on skillpoints to achieve maximum efficiency.

The second major change is that the vast majority of recipes are now available without taking the related specialization at a drastically increased cost. This should allow players to experience parts of the game they would have previously been locked out of while still giving players an immediate and powerful benefit for choosing specializations.

In addition to more generic benefits for a specialization, player will occasionally be able to choose specialization-specific talents upon leveling up. Talents for a given specialty are mutually exclusive: if you take one you lock yourself out of the other. Do you want to destroy the forest faster or do you want to be able to clean up the debris you leave behind easier? The goal is to encourage you to pick talents that benefit the way you want to play the game.

Even with the new changes, don't neglect your diet or house! What used to be skillpoints/day has been changed to an experience multiplier that is applied in two places: the rate at which you gain new specialties and the rate at which those individual specialties level up.


'''Banks'''

We have implemented banks to allow you to create additional bank accounts that you can share with other players. You can set who has access to the account and who is allowed to manage it, which will make playing together easier and also allows the world leader to grant other players access to the treasury. Everywhere where you need to pay with currency you can choose from which bank account you want to make the payment. Of course, you can also set into which bank account payments should go. And to make your life easier, we added the possibility to transfer money to different players and bank accounts just by clicking a button.


'''Registrars'''

Registrars enable you to create titles that you can grant to other players. Those titles can then be used in any authorization UIs and in the law system which allows you to easily group players or create titles for people that you want to work for the government.


'''New Animal AI'''

The AI of animals has been greatly improved and exposed for modding. Animals now eat, sleep, form packs and have species-specific behaviors. Beware though, as they became more intelligent and will now notice when your arrow hits just besides them. We have also implemented a headshot mechanic to make your life easier.


'''Sewage'''

In Update 8.0 several workbenches need to be supplied with water to function. In order to do so, you craft a pump and place it near a water source, connect it with pipes and deliver the water to the crafting table where it is converted into sewage. The sewage then needs to be taken care of – in the early game your only option is to release it into the environment, harming it. Later in the game you will get access to the water filter which allows you to clean the sewage and create compost blocks out of it which make a good ingredient for fertilizers.

* Contract Tax will be retained from payment on completion. Client will pay exactly specified amount, but contract have to pay tax from received payment. In case of failed contract it will be applied to Deposit as well, in this case Client have to paid tax from deposit.

'''Laws'''
*Currencies list will now have scroll when it can't be fully placed on display.
*Added actions "Plant", "Remove Stump", and "Harvest Leaves" to laws and stats.
*Actions "Pick Up" and "Place" now support world objects, in addition to blocks.
*The "Pick Up" action now supports mining and picking up rubble.
*The "Pick Up" action also supports picking up "Wood Pulp", which is what"tree debris" is now called.
*Laws can now reference total currency in circulation, as well as treasury balance, in addition to just the acting player's currency balance.
*You can now have as many proposed laws at one time as you want. This restriction was pretty meaningless, since you can already propose multiple clauses in a single law, and it's not as necessary anymore since the default ** Citizenship law already prevents the most egregious cases of trolling.
*Added support for conditions on the "number of players" value.  For example: "when attempting to gain skill Cooking, if (number of players where (level of Cooking > 0) > 3) prevent".
*Indirect ways of killing plants are now counted as "Harvest" actions.  This includes things like shoveling or plowing the dirt under a plant. This only applies to living plants.  Removing a dead plant does not count as a "Harvest".
*Changed how stats and legality checks for "Craft" work. You can now always start a project, regardless of legality. The project will become blocked based on whether it is legally allowed to craft one more item. A "Craft" action is only recorded in stats once an item has finished crafting. Among other things, this significantly reduces inaccurate "Craft" stats due to cancelling a project. The issue can still arise if you cancel a project after some items are crafted and waiting to be collected at the crafting station.
*Added the ability to regulate minting coins in laws.

'''Graphics and UI'''
*Updated the Storage tab to the new visual style.
*World markers now clamp to the screen correctly, and display in minimap list properly if they have tags.
*Updated Global Illumination to reflect terrain / water colors.
*Make info panel resizable (Currencies Report etc).
*Updated the following object tabs to the new visual style: Credit, Exchange, Power, Mint, Modules, Network, Pipes.
*Made the meteor not zoom-in until after you have opened the meteor tutorial.
* Added a button to world marker UI to open/show markers on the map.
*Add filter by language and version for recommended servers.
*Rapidly clicking now performs the same as holding down click e.g. when chopping down trees and mining rocks.
*Opened server info for Recommended Tab will not persist after Escape.
*Adjusted headers width so they now works much better with non-English locales having longer words.
*Added an error message which explains why a skill scroll failed to work if the player has a full inventory.
*Added a notification message when buying a deed.
*Ensure that open/closed state on linked inventories gets saved between play sessions.

'''Other'''
* You can once more edit the names of unowned objects.
*You can now cancel loading a world with the escape button.
*Players authorized on a property now have full edit capabilities on any stores on the property, instead of having strange partial edit capabilities.
*Room tiers are now determined by the average tier of all blocks that make up the room, World objects have a had their material requirement changed to reflect this change.
*Created a testing framework for auto-testing UIs on the client.
*Editing world markers no longer auto-opens the map.
* Added /save command for admin which saves the world!
*Increased time you can pick up hunted animals to 3-5 minutes.
*Changed the cap on crafting order quantity from 999 to 9999, which is now enforced both when typing and when clicking the buttons.

{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"
! colspan="1" |Changelog

{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible"
! colspan="1" |New Content
|-
|
*[[Distribution Station]]
**Added a new Distribution Station object. This is a stockpile where the owner can set a ration of items that every new player can take, which they will be notified of with a World Marker when they enter the game. With this object, citizens and governments can set up items to provide to new players to help them get started/catch up. You'll also be able to see the items provided from the Server Browser.
**You can set the max 'age' of a player for them to be eligible for items.
*Added [[Chainsaw]]
*[[Starter Camp]]
**The camp comes with a small stockpile and contains starting supplies.
**The camp also serves as a crafting table that can craft a limited selection of things.
*[[Real Estate Desk]]
**At the desk, you can examine your deeds, edit their settings, move land and vehicles between deeds, create and delete deeds, and unclaim land and vehicles. You can also buy and sell deeds.
** Deeds are no longer items that you can carry in your inventory.
**Replaced Property Claim Flags with a [[Land Claim Stake]] tool and [[Land Claim Papers]]. The Land Claim Stake works similarly to how claim flags used to work - hold it and right click to claim some land. It also has some new features.  You can hold it and left click on claimed land to unclaim it. You can also target claimed land with it and press 'E' to open the deed window for that land. The Land Claim Stake uses Land Claim Papers. Each paper represents your right to claim 1 plot of land. Unlocking skills will grant you Land Claim Papers, in the same way it used to grant you Property Claim Flags previously.
**When you claim land with the Land Claim Stake, the deed that the land is attached to is no longer determined by the deed in your inventory (since you can't have deeds in your inventory). Rather, it is determined by the deeds of nearby plots belonging to you, and .  If there are none within range, a new deed is created.
**The treatment of vehicles versus stationary objects with regards to deeds and authorization has been unified, and the 'Auth' tab of the object window - which has been renamed to the 'Authorization' tab and given an overhaul to improve both clarity and appearance - will appear for both. No more 'Lock' toggle for vehicles - they now have full authorization settings support just like stationary objects (that is, the ability to set them to public, whitelist, or inherit from deed mode).
**Added an "Unclaim Property" action to stats, which can be referenced in laws.
*[[Robotic Assembly Line]]
**The Robotic Assembly Line is used to craft all internal combustion engine vehicles and other advanced machinery.

{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible"
! colspan="1" |Improvements
|-
|
*Added calculated exchange rates. Eco will now compare trades of the same item in different currencies to make a rough exchange rate, which can be used by citizens to help understand prices (how to shop and how to set prices).  The inner details of how they're calculated is displayed as well, so players can make informed decisions. You can view this in a currency’s ‘Currency Report’. Will be doing more with this exchange rate later.
**Added intro sequences for food and housing, explaining the concepts with icons and animations.
**Made it easier to exit water in a few situations like 1 block thick docks.
**Third person mode in vehicles now zooms out further and behaves more consistently.
**Vehicles with tools now attempt to dump into multiple inventories for objects that have multiple inventories.

*Fixed an issue where a vehicle with both a fuel supply and storage would behave inconsistently in the linked inventory UI. (The UI displayed the fuel supply and the storage as separate inventories with separate settings, but the server treated both inventories as sharing the same settings. Now the server also treats them as separate inventories).
*Fixed the fishing line not meeting with the lure correctly.
*When attempting to join a server by ip address, if you enter an invalid ip, it will now show an error message instead of attempting to connect forever.
*Single-player server will now close itself if the client crashes.

*Chat window now shows 50 messages at a time, loading more as you scroll. Speeds up chat window significantly for larger chat databases.
* Sped up several UI’s
*Improved world layer history compression. (On an example world this shrunk the save file from 261mb to 98mb. This also reduces the impact of browsing the web page)
*World Layer history animations now work on linux servers

*Removed the factory from the game, recipes have been offloaded to the assembly line/robotic assembly line. Some have been removed.
*The tables tab now only shows tables that are marked ‘Public’.
* The currencies tab now only shows currencies that have circulation (more than one owner).
*Changed law actions 'Learn Skill' (which referenced skill levels) and 'Unlearn Skill' (which referenced specialties) to 'Learn Specialty' and 'Abandon Specialty', which can be meaningfully compared now, since they both reference specialties. (Existing laws using 'Learn Skill' will be changed to 'Learn Specialty', but existing stat history will still have the skill levels data)
*Added a law clause option to perform an action every x days (for example, you could tax everyone 1 dollar per day, or tax everyone a percentage of their money once per day).
* Added a 'Login for the First Time' law action, which enables laws that give things to new players.
* Added a 'channel' filter for the 'Message' law action, which enables creating restrictions on certain chat channels (for example, you could create an Announce channel that only admins can post in)
*Changed how 'performed by' action filters are displayed. Instead of 'Harvest actions where performed by you', laws will now say 'Your Harvest actions'. Before, this filter caused much confusion and many mistakes, since people assumed 'performed by you' was the default. Now it is the default. (Existing laws will have strange wording, but should function the same as they did before. New laws should be correct.)

*Improved the horizontal overflow behavior of the Contract window, preventing the text in the header column from being squished until it overflows vertically everywhere.
*Fixed an issue where some contract clauses had way too much vertical whitespace.
* For LAN and local servers, connect directly by ip address, rather than connecting through the master server. This prevents connection issues when the master server is down.
*When attempting to connect via the master server, timeout and return to the main menu if the master server does not respond.
*Fixed client-side lag due to unnecessary property texture updates
* Fixed Combustion Generators polluting forever when the power grid demand was 0, which was making some servers flood (flooding can produce a lot of client-side lag when your map is open on large servers)
* Combustion Generators now consume fuel at a constant rate.
* Power grids only enable combustion generators one at a time as energy demand increases.
*Power grids with insufficient power now disable the most recently added objects instead of disabling everything.

*A large part of the networking code has been overhauled for this release. The server now uses UDP on port 3000 for game traffic by default, and TCP on port 3001 for web traffic by default. If you were forwarding ports to your dedicated servers in the past, you will need to update your rules accordingly, including any rules in firewall programs.
* In most instances, you should no longer need to port forward when hosting a server. We'd recommend using the steam friends "join game" feature to easily join each other games, instead of needing to find IP address and connect manually.
*Moved the "MaxSlots" configuration value from the Users.eco config to the Network.eco config

*This screen has been split into 2 tabs - one for only the servers that you are most likely to join (for example, your favorites, LAN servers, and official SLG servers), and the other for browsing for a new server. This allows you to view the first tab without having to query all the servers, which is more expensive.
*Added many new searching, sorting, and filtering features
*Improved performance by limiting how many servers are displayed
*Added a new category on the server browser for 'Test Servers', which for now will link only the official SLG test server for the next version. Players will need to switch to staging to join this build, and a popup will inform them of that if they attempt.

{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"
! colspan="1" |Changelog
|-
|
{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"
! colspan="1" |Feature Highlights
|-
|
'''DISTRICTS!'''

Using the laws system, you can now define districts for your world. Once one or more districts have been defined, you can pass laws that reference these districts, for example that only apply inside a certain district - or that only apply outside of it.


'''SIMULATION IMPROVEMENTS'''

World generation has been tweaked and balanced, in order to generate a better balance of biomes.

Optimized simulation code, in order to speed up world generation and simulation ticks.


'''REDESIGNED PLANT SIMULATION'''

The behavior and simulation of plants has been redone in order to be both more simple and more realistic. Plant populations are more dynamic, and can migrate and out-compete one another as the environment changes. Soil nutrients are easier to understand, and can be tuned with a variety of fertilizers.

Farmed plants are now treated no differently than wild plants; they will flourish in appropriate environments, wither and die in inappropriate ones, can spread to nearby areas and can be out-competed by other plants. You will need to pick a good spot to farm - or carefully manage soil moisture and soil nutrients - in order to succeed.

Finally, with the new Cause and Effect page (accessible from the server website), interactions between plants and their environments can be explored and understood, in order to get better results with farming and controlling plant populations in the wild.


'''NEW SPECIES'''

Several new species were added to the game (Note: requires generating a new world).

*Fir and Oak trees
*Saguaro Cactus
*Rice
* Desert Tortoise


'''ADDED SUPPORT FOR PASSWORD PROTECTED SERVERS'''

You can now specify a password required to connect to a server.

Whitelisted users are exempt from needing to enter a password.

This removes the prior "Private Server" setting


'''REWORKED AND IMPROVED TUTORIALS'''

Tutorials now give a base set of items, rather than specialties. (Skipping tutorials will give you all the starter items)
Some specialties will award an improved initial tool instead.

New tutorial content has been added, and existing content has been rearranged and improved.


'''HUD'''

Updated the HUD with new art, including the nutrition and housing displays, the toolbar, the action bar, and the time of day display.


'''MOD.IO'''

Initial support for downloading and installing mods via mod.io

More support to come here soon after beta release, stay tuned

{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"
! colspan="1" |Other Changes
|-
|
*Added automatic windows firewall rule settings for the web server ports.
*Added brightness option
*World layers can be viewed in-world by selecting a layer in the minimap and checking the "Show In World" toggle
*World layers are now displayed with a colorblind friendly gradient
*Polished the world object UI panel graphics
*Plant nutrients and fertilizer have been redesigned and simplified
*Nutrients are now consumed and produced by the ecosystem in a cycle, instead of being a static capacity-based constraint on the ecosystem
** Plants consume nutrients as they mature, and return those nutrients to the soil when they die
**Only half of the nutrients are returned from plants killed or harvested by direct player action
**Fertilizer adds nutrients to the cycle, thus restoring the ecosystem
**The nutrient cycle and plant maturity changes support the Cause & Effect UI
*Plant maturation mechanics are adjusted to be simpler and to work well with the new nutrient behaviour
**Plants age at a constant rate independently of the properties of the local environment
**Plants consume more nutrients, and produce proportionally more yield, if they are raised in a nutrient-rich environment
** Plants are less effective at taking up nutrients if they are in an inhospitable environment (poor temperature or moisture match or high pollution levels) and therefore have lower yields
**You can see the potential yield of each species in its corresponding PotentialYield layer
*Plant population growth mechanics are redesigned to be simpler, more directly related to the behaviour of real plants and to work with the new nutrient mechanics
**Plant reproduction is constrained by nutrient availability
***The more nutrients are available, the more rapidly they will reproduce, up to a maximum intrinsic reproduction rate.
***If there are very few nutrients available, plants will slowly start to die; the fewer nutrients, the faster they’ll die, up to a maximum intrinsic death rate.
*** Plants require greater nutrient availability to survive and reproduce if they are raised in an inhospitable * environment (poor temperature or moisture match or high pollution levels)
**Plant reproduction is constrained by available empty space
***There are three kinds of empty space - canopy space, shrub space, and fertile ground. Trees consume canopy space and fertile ground, farmable plants the last two, and grasses only occupy fertile ground.
***The more empty space there is, the more rapidly plants will reproduce, up to a maximum intrinsic growth rate if there is no competition for space
***In inhospitable environments (poor temperature or moisture match or high pollution levels), plants require extra empty space to survive and reproduce.
***If more space is consumed than is available - for example, if a farm is planted too densely and the plants are crowding one another - the plants will slowly start to die. The more overcrowded they are, the faster they will die.
**Only the tightest constraint limits plant reproduction - for example, if there is very little nitrogen available, plants will grow at the same slow rate no matter how much empty space there is.
**Different species have different requirements for empty space and nutrient availability, different intrinsic growth and death rates, and different temperature, moisture, and pollution tolerances.
**As a rule of thumb, intrinsic growth and death rates are tuned so that in perfect conditions the plant population in an area will double in 24 hours, and in completely inhospitable conditions the plant population will halve in 24 hours.
** Plant reproduction supports the Cause & Effect UI
*Added the world layers: OccupiedFertileGround, OccupiedShrubSpace, and OccupiedCanopySpace, which record the amount of each kind of space that's currently occupied by plants in the area.

*Redid Meteor impact sequence:
**Meteor enters atmosphere, starts to burn
**When it contacts ground, triggers a huge explosion + 30 meter radius crater
**Atmosphere begins to cloud with debris, becomes fully overcast in a few minutes
** Meteor chunks ejected from the blast begin raining down, creating craters from 2-10m radius
**These meteor chunks number 1 per 250 square meters of world area (4000 on a 100x100) and rain down once every .2 seconds (13 minutes on a 100x100)

'''Player Housing'''

New to 6.1 is Player Housing, which will be the second way (next to food) to earn skill points. The better furnished your house is with the more variety of rooms, the faster you’ll gain skill points.

Adding furniture of matching categories to a room (ie bathroom, living room, bedroom) will provide a room bonus to the property owner, and having multiple rooms of various types will apply a ‘balanced house multiplier’.

The goal of this feature is to put more individual incentive into the game, increasing the quality and size of your house in order to increase your skills.  Important to the group, yes, but it can easily get out of hand, and finding a balance of resources put towards individual needs vs. the needs of the group will play a big role.

With 6.1 we’ve added the basic system to try out, still in the works are a whole slew of housing objects to add, which will arrive in 6.2. Let us know your feedback.


'''Improved Controls'''

*Holding shift allows you to sprint, at the cost of additional calories. If you have zero calories, you can’t sprint.
*Holding control allows you to move slowly. Doing so also prevents you from falling off of ledges.
*Diving below the surface of water now requires calories. Swim underwater by holding control. If you have no calories, you can only swim on the surface.
*Fixes

Over 375 issues fixed since 6.0.3. (!)

! colspan="1" |Changelog
|-
|
'''General'''

Updating from alpha 5.6.X:

*Migration is supported from the prior version, however there are some item changes that will result in deleted blocks or missing items.  Some of the new biomes will also not exist in prior worlds, such as the wetlands biome. It is recommended to start a fresh world.


'''Mining'''

Mining mechanics have been revised:

*When mining stone and ore, the resource will break into smaller chunks, which can then be collected by hand.  Mining resources can be stacked in multiples of 4, both into stockpiles or on any flat terrain, before being processed into other materials.


'''Tools'''

Durability:

*Many items will degrade in effectiveness as they are used. Items that are more broken become more difficult to use, consuming your calories faster.

Added repair stations:

*Players can use repair stations to improve item durability.  Resourceful players may specialize in tool repair and buy and sell items to repair.

More tools:

*Not all tools are created equal. Progressing through the game gives you access to better technology to craft superior tools. Better tools degrade slower and use less calories.


'''Programmable Laws'''

*The new law system introduces a new way to construct laws for your Eco worlds. Build laws composed of many different conditional statements and effects, with a simple drop-down based interface.
*Pass laws that restrict many player actions, such as voting, placing blocks, gaining skills, talking in certain chat channels, as well as the original harvesting plants and animals and crafting items.
*Compose complex conditions on when to restrict actions, using parameters such as what property the player is on, what their skill levels are, and how often they have performed a certain action.
*In addition to preventing actions completely, you can now tax certain actions, or even subsidize them by allocating money from the government treasury.


'''Ecology'''

*Animals move more intelligently, are more difficult to trap and can be found in more realistic locations.
*New plant species: Mushrooms, Tomatoes, Pumpkins, Buttonbush, Salal, Waterweed, Kelp, Rice, Pitcher plants.
*New animal species: Trout, Salmon, Tuna, Clams, Urchins.
*Added wetlands biome: Find mushrooms and other exotic plants within the wetlands biome.  (Requires newly generated world)
*Added ocean biome: Waterweed, kelp, clams, urchins and fish are now spawned within the ocean biome.
*Deforestation: Felling trees now produces tree debris. This material is a nuisance to remove and inhibits the growth of other species within the area.
*Fishing: Fish are now able to be caught and used as a resource, both with the fishing pole or fishing traps.


'''Economy'''

*Contracts
**Contracts are created and posted at a Contract Board.
**You can set a variety of clauses on a contract, combining various ones to describe many kinds of jobs.
**Players accepting a contract will be given specific auth to do the work (ie, the Clean Tree Debris job will only allow them to remove debris, nothing else, on a property).
**Added a ‘Custom Clause’ that allows you to specify in words what you want done, which then will have to be reviewed by the client before accepting it.
***''Clauses:''
***Remove Tree Stumps and Debris
***Transport
***Put Items In Container
***Build Room
***Build Road
***Add/Remove Blocks
***Payment
***Custom Clause
***Reputation Limiter
***Receive Permissions
***Nested Clause
*Reputation
**Players can give and receive reputation to one another, up to 10 points per day.
**Player names will highlight different colors based on whether their reputation is good or bad.
**Reputation from multiple people is weighted higher than reputation from fewer.
**Contracts can be blocked based on reputation
**Reputation is set by clicking the ‘reputation’ link in the player tooltip.
*Player Objectives
**A new dialog displaying the objective of each player is added.  Use this to convey to others the projects you’re working on, and how they can help provide or sell you what you need.
The leader of the server can set the World Status, which will be displayed in the server browser.
*Player Credit
**Every player has an associated credit currency named after them. This allows players to begin participating in the economy immediately, doing things like charging a fee on their craft table which players acquire credit for by selling to their store, which uses the same credit.
**Players have infinite credit of their own type, and can give out freely with the /pay command.
**Mints create ‘backed’ currency, which no one has an infinite supply of, thus making is much more stable as it requires resources to create more.
**Added a Currency Exchange object, which allows players to passively sell/buy currency of any kind, transferring between currencies.


'''Skills'''

*Added skill options to the server, allowing different levels of skill cost inflation (flat and percentage) and limits on levels.
*Added an option to allow unlearning skills.
*Reworked skill costs and gains to be more consistent over the course of the game.


'''Performance'''

*Various rendering tweaks and adjustments to improve rendering performance
*Overhauled inventory system to improve general server performance
*Various Minimap performance improvements

-*Fixed Sweeping Hands not working
+*Performance Improvements:
-*Fixed Work Party UI to allow customization
+**Our developers have been working hard on countless internal changes for this update in order to increase the performance of Eco on a wide range of different hardware configurations. We have noticeably reduced memory consumption on clients, optimized network code, reduced the frequency of FPS spikes (micro lags) during movement and you should now have a smoother experience playing Eco. Please note that there is still more to come in the 9.X updates, as we do have other optimisations prepared and in mind that require more work and / or breaking changes that are better to be introduced in a major update.
-*Fixed inability to pick up Ballot Box and Executive Office
-*Fixed Crushed Gneiss to have Crushed Rock tag
+* Relay Servers:
-*Fixed ability to vote on drafts before they have been put to election
+**For this update we added relay server support for cases where connections between client and server cannot be established in a normal way. This should fix most of the connection issues some players have experienced.
+**The Network.eco config file for servers has the new option “RelayAddress” where a custom relay server can be configured (available for download as docker image from strangeloopgames/relay-server:latest). If no "RelayAddress" and no "RemoteAddress" is specified for a server then it will auto-discovery the relay server with best ping from a list of official relay servers and use it as fallback for clients who fail to connect the regular way.
+*Other Improvements:
+**Added auto-run function. It is disabled by default, but you can go to Key Bindings and assign a button. It works both for the character and for a vehicle.
+*Bugs fixed:
+**Fixed an issue that caused players to fall through rendered ground with their vehicles when above mines.
+**Fixed an issue that caused changed keybindings for the moving keys to not be saved.
+**Fixed an issue that made trees non-interactable or vanish during slicing and collecting.
+**Fixed an issue with the french localization in regards to player currency.
+**Fixed skid steer no longer interacting with tree debris.
+**Fixed several server crashes.
+**Fixed ModKit Issues.

+|
-*Fixed an issue that caused the treasury to not show all available currencies.
+'''New World Generation'''
-* Fixed the currency report showing unused currencies after dumping a currency in the treasury.
-* Fixed an exception related to taxes.
+World generation has undergone a variety of changes and improvements.  Many new parameters have been added to world generation, such as land/water balance, number of continents and islands, sizes of biomes, and number of water features such as rivers and lakes.  All of these parameters may be tweaked within the world generator config file. As a result, worlds are much more varied with specific resources only being made available within specific biomes.
-* Fixed an exception related to minting.
-* Fixed the conditions that make the skills tutorial appear.
+In addition, we have reworked the world geology, by adding an assortment of rock types like [[Sandstone]], [[Granite]], [[Shale]], and [[Limestone]]. Certain rock types appear only in specific biomes and at specific depths. These rocks all have different uses in recipes and can be made into unique looking mortared stones. Ores like Iron, Copper, and Gold are now located in specific host rocks which will encourage you to choose the place of your settlement wisely.
-*Fixed several typos in skill descriptions.
-* Fixed an issue that caused the skills menu to be unusable when clicking on the icon that notifies you that you got experience for a task.
+Lakes have been added, and the river generator has been rewritten to have an improved look and feel to them.
-*Fixed yellow colored text on yellow background for the experience bar.
-*Fixed issues with tooltip placement in the skills menu.
-*Fixed lan server detection issues.
+'''New Plants'''

+*Rainforest: [[Papaya]], [[Taro]], [[Orchid]], [[Heliconia]], [[Pineapple]], [[Lattice Mushroom]], [[Bolete Mushroom]], [[Cookeina Mushroom]], [[Filmy Fern]], [[King Fern]]

-*Fixed the multiple crafting speed related talents.
+*[[Mule Deer]]
-*Fixed work clothes to no longer remove calorie cost completely.
+*[[Mountain Goat]]

+*[[Bighorn Sheep]]
-*Fixed the skid steer and excavator not being able to collect rubble.
-*Fixed an issue that caused rubble pieces to randomly flying away, clipping through textures and popping up on top of the terrain when mining.
-*Rubble causes less trouble.
+'''New Skill system'''
-*Rubble is no longer frozen on top of vehicles or players to prevent blocking movement.
-*Fixed contract payments to allow setting the amount of payment to a value below 1.0.
+The skill system has been simplified and reworked to encourage active engagement. While specializations will still be based on the same time-gated model as before, you no longer need to choose between improving your current specialties and gaining new ones. Instead of having multiple skills under specialties that all need skillpoints to advance, we've rolled all those benefits into an action-based leveling system. For example, players who choose to take the hewing specialty will be able to hew logs with increasing efficiency and speed as they complete orders rather than being forced to wait on skillpoints to achieve maximum efficiency.
-* Fixed generated worlds not being random because of the seed not being changed.
-*Fixed holes in water no longer filling up.
+The second major change is that the vast majority of recipes are now available without taking the related specialization at a drastically increased cost. This should allow players to experience parts of the game they would have previously been locked out of while still giving players an immediate and powerful benefit for choosing specializations.
-*Fixed an issue that could lead to room data being lost after a server restart.
-*Fixed several issues with the behaviour of the chat, including random scrolling.
+In addition to more generic benefits for a specialization, player will occasionally be able to choose specialization-specific talents upon leveling up. Talents for a given specialty are mutually exclusive: if you take one you lock yourself out of the other. Do you want to destroy the forest faster or do you want to be able to clean up the debris you leave behind easier? The goal is to encourage you to pick talents that benefit the way you want to play the game.
-*Fixed an issue in contract clauses that could lead to a crash.
-*Fixed an issue that required a player to re-login to get access to a bank account after being authorized to use it.
+Even with the new changes, don't neglect your diet or house! What used to be skillpoints/day has been changed to an experience multiplier that is applied in two places: the rate at which you gain new specialties and the rate at which those individual specialties level up.
-*Fixed an issue that caused money transfers to not function when a transfer tax was set.
-*Fixed an issue with currency dropdowns displaying the top most currency instead of the selected one.
-*Fixed an issue that caused the transfer menu to show an incorrect tax.
+'''Banks'''
-* Fixed world map in the web ui not working correctly on paused servers.
-*Fixed the block form selection for cranes.
+We have implemented banks to allow you to create additional bank accounts that you can share with other players. You can set who has access to the account and who is allowed to manage it, which will make playing together easier and also allows the world leader to grant other players access to the treasury. Everywhere where you need to pay with currency you can choose from which bank account you want to make the payment. Of course, you can also set into which bank account payments should go. And to make your life easier, we added the possibility to transfer money to different players and bank accounts just by clicking a button.
-* Fixed animals appearing at the wrong height when first viewed.
-*Fixed alt-tab not showing windows behind game window after switching from exclusive to borderless mode.
-*Fixed an issue that made it impossible to get back into the game when alt-tabbing out of the game in exclusive fullscreen mode.
+'''Registrars'''
-*Fixed display for labels in the web ui for missing localization strings, instead of numbers it now shows the original english strings.
-*Fixed the broken economy viewer filter.
+Registrars enable you to create titles that you can grant to other players. Those titles can then be used in any authorization UIs and in the law system which allows you to easily group players or create titles for people that you want to work for the government.
-* Fixed an issue that could cause a crash when passing a law that affects the run for office function and then trying to open the law menu.
-* Fixed occupancy of treasury, bank and registrar.
-*Fixed meteor no longer being enabled by default.
+'''New Animal AI'''
-*Fixed several issues related to the citizen account feature.
-*Removed the display of “Tier 6” and “Tier 10” in item filters.
+The AI of animals has been greatly improved and exposed for modding. Animals now eat, sleep, form packs and have species-specific behaviors. Beware though, as they became more intelligent and will now notice when your arrow hits just besides them. We have also implemented a headshot mechanic to make your life easier.
-*Fixed tutorials sometimes not completing despite all tasks were completed.
-* Fixed an issue that caused the player to have to interact with a world object twice to open it after closing it.
-*Fixed an issue that allowed players to accept repeatable contracts that were already taken and in progress by another player.
+'''Sewage'''
-*Fixed stockpile tutorial to also recognize when a player puts logs into a stockpile by using the inventory UI.
-*Fixed the talent selection popup not appearing.
+In Update 8.0 several workbenches need to be supplied with water to function. In order to do so, you craft a pump and place it near a water source, connect it with pipes and deliver the water to the crafting table where it is converted into sewage. The sewage then needs to be taken care of – in the early game your only option is to release it into the environment, harming it. Later in the game you will get access to the water filter which allows you to clean the sewage and create compost blocks out of it which make a good ingredient for fertilizers.
-*Fixed an issue that caused specialties in the skills menu to not react correctly to unlocking a skill without reopening the menu.
-*Fixed an issue that allowed players to only consume calories and tool uses for one hit, despite them needing several hits to break a specific rock type.

-*Fixed an issue that caused the effects of clothes to not work correctly for new users until the server got restarted.
-*Fixed an issue with the housing skill points calculation.

-World generation has undergone a variety of changes and improvements. Many new parameters have been added to world generation, such as land/water balance, number of continents and islands, sizes of biomes, and number of water features such as rivers and lakes. All of these parameters may be tweaked within the world generator config file. As a result, worlds are much more varied with specific resources only being made available within specific biomes.
+{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"
+! colspan="1" |Versions: -  v7
-In addition, we have reworked the world geology, by adding an assortment of rock types like [[Sandstone]], [[Granite]], [[Shale]], and [[Limestone]]. Certain rock types appear only in specific biomes and at specific depths. These rocks all have different uses in recipes and can be made into unique looking mortared stones. Ores like Iron, Copper, and Gold are now located in specific host rocks which will encourage you to choose the place of your settlement wisely.

-'''New Skill system'''
+*Minor improvements
+**It is now possible to connect to the server directly using server id instead of IP address
-The skill system has been simplified and reworked to encourage active engagement. While specializations will still be based on the same time-gated model as before, you no longer need to choose between improving your current specialties and gaining new ones. Instead of having multiple skills under specialties that all need skillpoints to advance, we've rolled all those benefits into an action-based leveling system. For example, players who choose to take the hewing specialty will be able to hew logs with increasing efficiency and speed as they complete orders rather than being forced to wait on skillpoints to achieve maximum efficiency.
+*Server Optimizations
+**World Layer Tick optimization (~33% faster)
+**Reduced server lags during backups
+*Server Admin options
+**WebServerUrl and RemoteAddress on Network tab which allow to have a better control how your server will be available externally
+**New option EnablePendingWritesOnBackup for StatDatabase which allows to make stat database backup without stat read/write locks
+|}
-The second major change is that the vast majority of recipes are now available without taking the related specialization at a drastically increased cost. This should allow players to experience parts of the game they would have previously been locked out of while still giving players an immediate and powerful benefit for choosing specializations.
+===v0.7.8.6 ===
+'''Release Date:''' {{datetime|2018-11-22}}
-In addition to more generic benefits for a specialization, player will occasionally be able to choose specialization-specific talents upon leveling up. Talents for a given specialty are mutually exclusive: if you take one you lock yourself out of the other. Do you want to destroy the forest faster or do you want to be able to clean up the debris you leave behind easier? The goal is to encourage you to pick talents that benefit the way you want to play the game.
-Even with the new changes, don't neglect your diet or house! What used to be skillpoints/day has been changed to an experience multiplier that is applied in two places: the rate at which you gain new specialties and the rate at which those individual specialties level up.
-'''Banks'''
-We have implemented banks to allow you to create additional bank accounts that you can share with other players. You can set who has access to the account and who is allowed to manage it, which will make playing together easier and also allows the world leader to grant other players access to the treasury. Everywhere where you need to pay with currency you can choose from which bank account you want to make the payment. Of course, you can also set into which bank account payments should go. And to make your life easier, we added the possibility to transfer money to different players and bank accounts just by clicking a button.
-'''Registrars'''
-Registrars enable you to create titles that you can grant to other players. Those titles can then be used in any authorization UIs and in the law system which allows you to easily group players or create titles for people that you want to work for the government.
-'''New Animal AI'''
-The AI of animals has been greatly improved and exposed for modding. Animals now eat, sleep, form packs and have species-specific behaviors. Beware though, as they became more intelligent and will now notice when your arrow hits just besides them. We have also implemented a headshot mechanic to make your life easier.
-'''Sewage'''
-In Update 8.0 several workbenches need to be supplied with water to function. In order to do so, you craft a pump and place it near a water source, connect it with pipes and deliver the water to the crafting table where it is converted into sewage. The sewage then needs to be taken care of – in the early game your only option is to release it into the environment, harming it. Later in the game you will get access to the water filter which allows you to clean the sewage and create compost blocks out of it which make a good ingredient for fertilizers.

-''' Nap Time '''
-We have added sleep to the game! You can now sleep in beds to cause time to pass and speed up skill gain, crafting, and crop growth. Primarily for use in private servers
+'''Laws'''
+*Currencies list will now have scroll when it can't be fully placed on display.
+*Added actions "Plant", "Remove Stump", and "Harvest Leaves" to laws and stats.
+*Actions "Pick Up" and "Place" now support world objects, in addition to blocks.
+*The "Pick Up" action now supports mining and picking up rubble.
+*The "Pick Up" action also supports picking up "Wood Pulp", which is what"tree debris" is now called.
+*Laws can now reference total currency in circulation, as well as treasury balance, in addition to just the acting player's currency balance.
+*You can now have as many proposed laws at one time as you want. This restriction was pretty meaningless, since you can already propose multiple clauses in a single law, and it's not as necessary anymore since the default ** Citizenship law already prevents the most egregious cases of trolling.
+*Added support for conditions on the "number of players" value.  For example: "when attempting to gain skill Cooking, if (number of players where (level of Cooking > 0) > 3) prevent".
+*Indirect ways of killing plants are now counted as "Harvest" actions.  This includes things like shoveling or plowing the dirt under a plant. This only applies to living plants.  Removing a dead plant does not count as a "Harvest".
+*Changed how stats and legality checks for "Craft" work. You can now always start a project, regardless of legality. The project will become blocked based on whether it is legally allowed to craft one more item. A "Craft" action is only recorded in stats once an item has finished crafting. Among other things, this significantly reduces inaccurate "Craft" stats due to cancelling a project. The issue can still arise if you cancel a project after some items are crafted and waiting to be collected at the crafting station.
+*Added the ability to regulate minting coins in laws.
+'''Graphics and UI'''
+*Updated the Storage tab to the new visual style.
+*World markers now clamp to the screen correctly, and display in minimap list properly if they have tags.
+*Updated Global Illumination to reflect terrain / water colors.
+*Make info panel resizable (Currencies Report etc).
+*Updated the following object tabs to the new visual style: Credit, Exchange, Power, Mint, Modules, Network, Pipes.
+*Made the meteor not zoom-in until after you have opened the meteor tutorial.
+* Added a button to world marker UI to open/show markers on the map.
+*Add filter by language and version for recommended servers.
+*Rapidly clicking now performs the same as holding down click e.g. when chopping down trees and mining rocks.
+*Opened server info for Recommended Tab will not persist after Escape.
+*Adjusted headers width so they now works much better with non-English locales having longer words.
+*Added an error message which explains why a skill scroll failed to work if the player has a full inventory.
+*Added a notification message when buying a deed.
+*Ensure that open/closed state on linked inventories gets saved between play sessions.
-'''Item Filters'''
+'''Other'''
+* You can once more edit the names of unowned objects.
-You can now filter by item name, type, and tier in the economy viewer.
+*You can now cancel loading a world with the escape button.
+*Players authorized on a property now have full edit capabilities on any stores on the property, instead of having strange partial edit capabilities.
-'''Ladders'''
+*Room tiers are now determined by the average tier of all blocks that make up the room, World objects have a had their material requirement changed to reflect this change.
+*Created a testing framework for auto-testing UIs on the client.
-Added ladder climbing and ladder blocks. Ladders can be made taking one of a variety of materials including hewn wood and placing it using a hammer. They take up a single block of space and can be placed freestanding, they are ideal for getting up tall buildings or deep mine shafts where stairs and ramps are impractical.
+*Editing world markers no longer auto-opens the map.
+* Added /save command for admin which saves the world!
-'''Demographics'''
+*Increased time you can pick up hunted animals to 3-5 minutes.
+*Changed the cap on crafting order quantity from 999 to 9999, which is now enforced both when typing and when clicking the buttons.
-Added new "Demographics" feature. A Demographic represents a group of players. They're defined in laws, using law conditions. Once defined, you can reference Demographics in multiple laws, as well as authorize Demographics on deeds and objects. Demographics can be removed through laws also, but only if they are not being referenced by anything else.

-*Fixed 'new game' menu not appearing on mac/linux
+*[[Distribution Station]]
-*Fixed a problem that would keep users from logging back in if they left without finishing the Controls tutorial
+**Added a new Distribution Station object. This is a stockpile where the owner can set a ration of items that every new player can take, which they will be notified of with a World Marker when they enter the game. With this object, citizens and governments can set up items to provide to new players to help them get started/catch up. You'll also be able to see the items provided from the Server Browser.
-*Added more clear error reporting when mods fail to initialize
+**You can set the max 'age' of a player for them to be eligible for items.
+*Added [[Chainsaw]]
+*[[Starter Camp]]
+**The camp comes with a small stockpile and contains starting supplies.
+**The camp also serves as a crafting table that can craft a limited selection of things.
+*[[Real Estate Desk]]
+**At the desk, you can examine your deeds, edit their settings, move land and vehicles between deeds, create and delete deeds, and unclaim land and vehicles. You can also buy and sell deeds.
+** Deeds are no longer items that you can carry in your inventory.
+**Replaced Property Claim Flags with a [[Land Claim Stake]] tool and [[Land Claim Papers]]. The Land Claim Stake works similarly to how claim flags used to work - hold it and right click to claim some land. It also has some new features.  You can hold it and left click on claimed land to unclaim it. You can also target claimed land with it and press 'E' to open the deed window for that land. The Land Claim Stake uses Land Claim Papers. Each paper represents your right to claim 1 plot of land. Unlocking skills will grant you Land Claim Papers, in the same way it used to grant you Property Claim Flags previously.
+**When you claim land with the Land Claim Stake, the deed that the land is attached to is no longer determined by the deed in your inventory (since you can't have deeds in your inventory). Rather, it is determined by the deeds of nearby plots belonging to you, and .  If there are none within range, a new deed is created.
+**The treatment of vehicles versus stationary objects with regards to deeds and authorization has been unified, and the 'Auth' tab of the object window - which has been renamed to the 'Authorization' tab and given an overhaul to improve both clarity and appearance - will appear for both. No more 'Lock' toggle for vehicles - they now have full authorization settings support just like stationary objects (that is, the ability to set them to public, whitelist, or inherit from deed mode).
+**Added an "Unclaim Property" action to stats, which can be referenced in laws.
+*[[Robotic Assembly Line]]
+**The Robotic Assembly Line is used to craft all internal combustion engine vehicles and other advanced machinery.

You can view this in a currency’s ‘Currency Report’. Will be doing more with this exchange rate later.
+**Added intro sequences for food and housing, explaining the concepts with icons and animations.
+**Made it easier to exit water in a few situations like 1 block thick docks.
+**Third person mode in vehicles now zooms out further and behaves more consistently.

(Existing laws using 'Learn Skill' will be changed to 'Learn Specialty', but existing stat history will still have the skill levels data)
+*Added a law clause option to perform an action every x days (for example, you could tax everyone 1 dollar per day, or tax everyone a percentage of their money once per day).

-*[[Distribution Station]]
+*Improved the horizontal overflow behavior of the Contract window, preventing the text in the header column from being squished until it overflows vertically everywhere.
-**Added a new Distribution Station object. This is a stockpile where the owner can set a ration of items that every new player can take, which they will be notified of with a World Marker when they enter the game. With this object, citizens and governments can set up items to provide to new players to help them get started/catch up. You'll also be able to see the items provided from the Server Browser.
+*Fixed an issue where some contract clauses had way too much vertical whitespace.
-**You can set the max 'age' of a player for them to be eligible for items.
+* For LAN and local servers, connect directly by ip address, rather than connecting through the master server. This prevents connection issues when the master server is down.
-*Added [[Chainsaw]]
+*When attempting to connect via the master server, timeout and return to the main menu if the master server does not respond.
-*[[Starter Camp]]
+*Fixed client-side lag due to unnecessary property texture updates
-**The camp comes with a small stockpile and contains starting supplies.
+* Fixed Combustion Generators polluting forever when the power grid demand was 0, which was making some servers flood (flooding can produce a lot of client-side lag when your map is open on large servers)
-**The camp also serves as a crafting table that can craft a limited selection of things.
+* Combustion Generators now consume fuel at a constant rate.
-*[[Real Estate Desk]]
+* Power grids only enable combustion generators one at a time as energy demand increases.
-**At the desk, you can examine your deeds, edit their settings, move land and vehicles between deeds, create and delete deeds, and unclaim land and vehicles. You can also buy and sell deeds.
+*Power grids with insufficient power now disable the most recently added objects instead of disabling everything.
-** Deeds are no longer items that you can carry in your inventory.
+*Reduced sea level rising performance impact
-**Replaced Property Claim Flags with a [[Land Claim Stake]] tool and [[Land Claim Papers]]. The Land Claim Stake works similarly to how claim flags used to work - hold it and right click to claim some land. It also has some new features. You can hold it and left click on claimed land to unclaim it. You can also target claimed land with it and press 'E' to open the deed window for that land. The Land Claim Stake uses Land Claim Papers. Each paper represents your right to claim 1 plot of land. Unlocking skills will grant you Land Claim Papers, in the same way it used to grant you Property Claim Flags previously.
+*Reduced client-side lag related to frequently changing pipe outputs
-**When you claim land with the Land Claim Stake, the deed that the land is attached to is no longer determined by the deed in your inventory (since you can't have deeds in your inventory). Rather, it is determined by the deeds of nearby plots belonging to you, and . If there are none within range, a new deed is created.
+* Minimap icons load faster on big servers
-**The treatment of vehicles versus stationary objects with regards to deeds and authorization has been unified, and the 'Auth' tab of the object window - which has been renamed to the 'Authorization' tab and given an overhaul to improve both clarity and appearance - will appear for both. No more 'Lock' toggle for vehicles - they now have full authorization settings support just like stationary objects (that is, the ability to set them to public, whitelist, or inherit from deed mode).
+*Player names are now always visible
-**Added an "Unclaim Property" action to stats, which can be referenced in laws.
+*Improved map update performance
-*[[Robotic Assembly Line]]
+*Fixed a performance issue related to opening the chat log
-**The Robotic Assembly Line is used to craft all internal combustion engine vehicles and other advanced machinery.
+*Decreased lag due to opening the chat log by having it load 1 message per frame instead of all in 1 frame.

-*Added calculated exchange rates. Eco will now compare trades of the same item in different currencies to make a rough exchange rate, which can be used by citizens to help understand prices (how to shop and how to set prices). The inner details of how they're calculated is displayed as well, so players can make informed decisions. You can view this in a currency’s ‘Currency Report’. Will be doing more with this exchange rate later.

+*A large part of the networking code has been overhauled for this release. The server now uses UDP on port 3000 for game traffic by default, and TCP on port 3001 for web traffic by default. If you were forwarding ports to your dedicated servers in the past, you will need to update your rules accordingly, including any rules in firewall programs.
+* In most instances, you should no longer need to port forward when hosting a server. We'd recommend using the steam friends "join game" feature to easily join each other games, instead of needing to find IP address and connect manually.

-* Added a 'Login for the First Time' law action, which enables laws that give things to new players.

Before, this filter caused much confusion and many mistakes, since people assumed 'performed by you' was the default. Now it is the default. (Existing laws will have strange wording, but should function the same as they did before. New laws should be correct.)

-*Added many new searching, sorting, and filtering features

-*Massively sped up the time it takes to detect tailings during server startup.
+The behavior and simulation of plants has been redone in order to be both more simple and more realistic. Plant populations are more dynamic, and can migrate and out-compete one another as the environment changes. Soil nutrients are easier to understand, and can be tuned with a variety of fertilizers.
-*Fixed an issue with contracts serialization.
-*Additional auth fixes for single player client-launched servers
+Farmed plants are now treated no differently than wild plants; they will flourish in appropriate environments, wither and die in inappropriate ones, can spread to nearby areas and can be out-competed by other plants. You will need to pick a good spot to farm - or carefully manage soil moisture and soil nutrients - in order to succeed.
-*Fix weird things like rooms breaking and dirt appearing out of nowhere. This bug was introduced in 7.0.6 (or for servers who tried the early preview of the performance fixes included in 7.0.6)
-|}
+Finally, with the new Cause and Effect page (accessible from the server website), interactions between plants and their environments can be explored and understood, in order to get better results with farming and controlling plant populations in the wild.

+** Plants consume nutrients as they mature, and return those nutrients to the soil when they die
-|}
+**Only half of the nutrients are returned from plants killed or harvested by direct player action
-===v0.7.0.4===
+**Fertilizer adds nutrients to the cycle, thus restoring the ecosystem
-'''Release Date:''' {{datetime|2018-02-06}}
+**The nutrient cycle and plant maturity changes support the Cause & Effect UI
-{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"
+*Plant maturation mechanics are adjusted to be simpler and to work well with the new nutrient behaviour
-! colspan="1" |Changelog
+**Plants age at a constant rate independently of the properties of the local environment
-|-
+**Plants consume more nutrients, and produce proportionally more yield, if they are raised in a nutrient-rich environment
-|
+** Plants are less effective at taking up nutrients if they are in an inhospitable environment (poor temperature or moisture match or high pollution levels) and therefore have lower yields
-*Attempted fix for some users seeing black title screen
+**You can see the potential yield of each species in its corresponding PotentialYield layer
-*Some errors when trying to launch a local server game (via new game / load game option)
+*Plant population growth mechanics are redesigned to be simpler, more directly related to the behaviour of real plants and to work with the new nutrient mechanics
-*Fix steam users not being able to propose/vote on laws
+**Plant reproduction is constrained by nutrient availability
-*General server performance tweaks for servers with larger #s of players
+***The more nutrients are available, the more rapidly they will reproduce, up to a maximum intrinsic reproduction rate.
-'''Carpentry Table'''
+***If there are very few nutrients available, plants will slowly start to die; the fewer nutrients, the faster they’ll die, up to a maximum intrinsic death rate.
-*Hewn Log cost reduced from 4 logs to 2 logs
+*** Plants require greater nutrient availability to survive and reproduce if they are raised in an inhospitable * environment (poor temperature or moisture match or high pollution levels)
-'''Workbench'''
+**Plant reproduction is constrained by available empty space
-*Hewn Log cost reduced from 4 logs to 2 logs
+***There are three kinds of empty space - canopy space, shrub space, and fertile ground. Trees consume canopy space and fertile ground, farmable plants the last two, and grasses only occupy fertile ground.
-*Hewn Log crafting time reduced from 0.3 to 0.2
+***The more empty space there is, the more rapidly plants will reproduce, up to a maximum intrinsic growth rate if there is no competition for space
-'''Large Butchery'''
+***In inhospitable environments (poor temperature or moisture match or high pollution levels), plants require extra empty space to survive and reproduce.
-* Skill Requirements for all Large Butchery was reduced by 1
+***If more space is consumed than is available - for example, if a farm is planted too densely and the plants are crowding one another - the plants will slowly start to die. The more overcrowded they are, the faster they will die.
-*Changed skill cost to T1 unlock costs (1/2/2/3) from (6/8/10/12)
+**Only the tightest constraint limits plant reproduction - for example, if there is very little nitrogen available, plants will grow at the same slow rate no matter how much empty space there is.
-*Lowered maximum level from 4 to 3.
+**Different species have different requirements for empty space and nutrient availability, different intrinsic growth and death rates, and different temperature, moisture, and pollution tolerances.
-'''Small Butchery'''
+**As a rule of thumb, intrinsic growth and death rates are tuned so that in perfect conditions the plant population in an area will double in 24 hours, and in completely inhospitable conditions the plant population will halve in 24 hours.
-*Lowered maximum level from 4 to 3.
+** Plant reproduction supports the Cause & Effect UI
-*Specialty costs reduced from (0, 5, 20, 100, 250, 500, 800) to (0, 0, 5, 15, 50, 100, 300, 500)

-The behavior and simulation of plants has been redone in order to be both more simple and more realistic. Plant populations are more dynamic, and can migrate and out-compete one another as the environment changes. Soil nutrients are easier to understand, and can be tuned with a variety of fertilizers.
+===v0.6.4.0===
-Farmed plants are now treated no differently than wild plants; they will flourish in appropriate environments, wither and die in inappropriate ones, can spread to nearby areas and can be out-competed by other plants. You will need to pick a good spot to farm - or carefully manage soil moisture and soil nutrients - in order to succeed.
+'''Release Date:''' {{datetime|2018-01-18}}
-Finally, with the new Cause and Effect page (accessible from the server website), interactions between plants and their environments can be explored and understood, in order to get better results with farming and controlling plant populations in the wild.

-*** Plants require greater nutrient availability to survive and reproduce if they are raised in an inhospitable * environment (poor temperature or moisture match or high pollution levels)
-**Plant reproduction is constrained by available empty space
+New chat command system to improve usability and modability.
-***There are three kinds of empty space - canopy space, shrub space, and fertile ground. Trees consume canopy space and fertile ground, farmable plants the last two, and grasses only occupy fertile ground.
-***The more empty space there is, the more rapidly plants will reproduce, up to a maximum intrinsic growth rate if there is no competition for space
+*Commands like ‘/help’ and ‘/?’ now list all usable commands, along with their descriptions and syntax.
-***In inhospitable environments (poor temperature or moisture match or high pollution levels), plants require extra empty space to survive and reproduce.
+*You can read more about their use in the [https://github.com/StrangeLoopGames/EcoModKit/wiki/Custom-Chat-Commands documentation here].
-***If more space is consumed than is available - for example, if a farm is planted too densely and the plants are crowding one another - the plants will slowly start to die. The more overcrowded they are, the faster they will die.
-**Only the tightest constraint limits plant reproduction - for example, if there is very little nitrogen available, plants will grow at the same slow rate no matter how much empty space there is.
-**Different species have different requirements for empty space and nutrient availability, different intrinsic growth and death rates, and different temperature, moisture, and pollution tolerances.
+'''Avatar Creation'''
-**As a rule of thumb, intrinsic growth and death rates are tuned so that in perfect conditions the plant population in an area will double in 24 hours, and in completely inhospitable conditions the plant population will halve in 24 hours.
-** Plant reproduction supports the Cause & Effect UI
+Made improvements to the avatar creation menu.

-'''New Features'''
-*Replaced the character controller
-*Character no longer slips and slides around walls in confined spaces.
-* The new controller is more responsive, should feel better when moving around in precarious situations like building the walls and roofs of buildings.
-*Character climbs stairs without requiring jumping.
-*Character no longer slides off of steep slopes, like roofs.
-*Improved the tutorial
-* Added a Controls popup that tells you how to interact with things in the world when you look at them for 1 second. Shows what each mouse button and ‘E’ key do.
-*Added initial support for playing on local worlds. Note: Initially this is a PC only feature, we will be looking at adding support for this on OSX and Linux in the future.
-*You can create and load worlds locally, and play without needing to setup your own server - it does most of the legwork for you.
-*Added a ‘Continue’ option, which will remember the last server you joined or world you loaded. One click gets you back into the game!
+Updating from alpha 5.6.X:
+*Migration is supported from the prior version, however there are some item changes that will result in deleted blocks or missing items.  Some of the new biomes will also not exist in prior worlds, such as the wetlands biome. It is recommended to start a fresh world.
+'''Mining'''
-'''Revised skills'''
+Mining mechanics have been revised:
-*Introduced the concept of ‘Specialties’, which are branches of the skill tree that require research
-*Restructured the skill tree to place all Specialties at the root
+*When mining stone and ore, the resource will break into smaller chunks, which can then be collected by hand.  Mining resources can be stacked in multiples of 4, both into stockpiles or on any flat terrain, before being processed into other materials.
-*Reorganized the skills window to be easier to navigate
-*Simplified skill costs
+'''Tools'''
+Durability:
+*Many items will degrade in effectiveness as they are used. Items that are more broken become more difficult to use, consuming your calories faster.
-'''Avatar improvements'''
+Added repair stations:
-*Player avatars now have more accurate foot placement and new animations including running, jumping and swimming.
-*Torches can now be seen when carried by other players
-*Updated water art!
-*Improved the end game win sequence.
-*Changed the way the Laser works: it now destroys the meteor 30 seconds after activating. Since this removes the 9 hour charging time, it instead requires double power.
-*Animated the lasers to turn to their target
-*Made the meteor easier to spot, fixed issues where the meteor was impossible to see.
-*Improved hammer functionality(edited)
-*Changed the units of the AirPollutionSource and AirPollutionSpread world layers from tons of pollution per 16 square meters to tons of pollution per square meter.
-*Made /help sort and categorize the displayed chat commands.
+*Players can use repair stations to improve item durability.  Resourceful players may specialize in tool repair and buy and sell items to repair.
-'''Bugs Fixed'''
+More tools:
-*Fixed bug where laws and government were not saved when hitting save in the server GUI
-*Added /dumpcarried command
+*Not all tools are created equal. Progressing through the game gives you access to better technology to craft superior tools. Better tools degrade slower and use less calories.
-*Fixed room requirements for the Repair Station
-*Reduced stutter due to garbage collection
-*Added admin commands /setreputation and /setreputationrelative
+'''Programmable Laws'''
-*Fixes phantom items in inventory
-*Fix bug where the Cause & Effect API would fail when inspecting layer relationships in an area that isn't aligned with the world origin
+*The new law system introduces a new way to construct laws for your Eco worlds. Build laws composed of many different conditional statements and effects, with a simple drop-down based interface.
-*Fix some number formatting issues in Cause & Effect
+*Pass laws that restrict many player actions, such as voting, placing blocks, gaining skills, talking in certain chat channels, as well as the original harvesting plants and animals and crafting items.
-*Fixes a lot of issues when holding logs with shovel, or rubble with pickaxe, etc.
+*Compose complex conditions on when to restrict actions, using parameters such as what property the player is on, what their skill levels are, and how often they have performed a certain action.
-*Fixes some items not appearing in store selection window, including coal and certain seeds.
+*In addition to preventing actions completely, you can now tax certain actions, or even subsidize them by allocating money from the government treasury.
-*If world layers changed dirt in stockpiles to other types, such as grass or desert sand, the stockpile used to lose the dirt item associated with it. Fixes that.
-*Fixed a server crash when claiming property with a deed crafted at a workbench
-*Removed Stone Roof (migrated to mortared stone roof in a previous release)
+'''Ecology'''
-*Fixes some server crashes related to crafting projects
-*Fixed problems with tooltips that were too tall for the screen
+*Animals move more intelligently, are more difficult to trap and can be found in more realistic locations.
-*Fixed problems with tooltips closing even while still being hovered over
+*New plant species: Mushrooms, Tomatoes, Pumpkins, Buttonbush, Salal, Waterweed, Kelp, Rice, Pitcher plants.
-*Added tooltips to items showing which skill gives that item, if any
+*New animal species: Trout, Salmon, Tuna, Clams, Urchins.
-*Fixed not being able to walk after opening the advanced settings in the escape menu.
+*Added wetlands biome: Find mushrooms and other exotic plants within the wetlands biome.  (Requires newly generated world)
-*Fixed protection on fuel supplies that prevents unauthorized players from removing fuel from them
+*Added ocean biome: Waterweed, kelp, clams, urchins and fish are now spawned within the ocean biome.
-*Fixed rubble placement against walls
+*Deforestation: Felling trees now produces tree debris. This material is a nuisance to remove and inhibits the growth of other species within the area.
-*Fixed occasional crashes when performing trades
+*Fishing: Fish are now able to be caught and used as a resource, both with the fishing pole or fishing traps.

+**Contracts are created and posted at a Contract Board.
+**You can set a variety of clauses on a contract, combining various ones to describe many kinds of jobs.
+**Players accepting a contract will be given specific auth to do the work (ie, the Clean Tree Debris job will only allow them to remove debris, nothing else, on a property).
-'''Player Housing Objects'''
+**Added a ‘Custom Clause’ that allows you to specify in words what you want done, which then will have to be reviewed by the client before accepting it.

+The leader of the server can set the World Status, which will be displayed in the server browser.
+*Player Credit
+**Every player has an associated credit currency named after them. This allows players to begin participating in the economy immediately, doing things like charging a fee on their craft table which players acquire credit for by selling to their store, which uses the same credit.
+**Players have infinite credit of their own type, and can give out freely with the /pay command.
+**Mints create ‘backed’ currency, which no one has an infinite supply of, thus making is much more stable as it requires resources to create more.
+**Added a Currency Exchange object, which allows players to passively sell/buy currency of any kind, transferring between currencies.

-'''General'''
-Updating from alpha 5.6.X:
-*Migration is supported from the prior version, however there are some item changes that will result in deleted blocks or missing items. Some of the new biomes will also not exist in prior worlds, such as the wetlands biome. It is recommended to start a fresh world.
-'''Mining'''
-Mining mechanics have been revised:
-*When mining stone and ore, the resource will break into smaller chunks, which can then be collected by hand. Mining resources can be stacked in multiples of 4, both into stockpiles or on any flat terrain, before being processed into other materials.
-'''Tools'''
-Durability:
-*Many items will degrade in effectiveness as they are used. Items that are more broken become more difficult to use, consuming your calories faster.
-Added repair stations:
-*Players can use repair stations to improve item durability. Resourceful players may specialize in tool repair and buy and sell items to repair.
-More tools:
-*Not all tools are created equal. Progressing through the game gives you access to better technology to craft superior tools. Better tools degrade slower and use less calories.
-'''Programmable Laws'''
-*The new law system introduces a new way to construct laws for your Eco worlds. Build laws composed of many different conditional statements and effects, with a simple drop-down based interface.
-*Pass laws that restrict many player actions, such as voting, placing blocks, gaining skills, talking in certain chat channels, as well as the original harvesting plants and animals and crafting items.
-*Compose complex conditions on when to restrict actions, using parameters such as what property the player is on, what their skill levels are, and how often they have performed a certain action.
-*In addition to preventing actions completely, you can now tax certain actions, or even subsidize them by allocating money from the government treasury.
-'''Ecology'''
-*Animals move more intelligently, are more difficult to trap and can be found in more realistic locations.
-*New plant species: Mushrooms, Tomatoes, Pumpkins, Buttonbush, Salal, Waterweed, Kelp, Rice, Pitcher plants.
-*New animal species: Trout, Salmon, Tuna, Clams, Urchins.
-*Added wetlands biome: Find mushrooms and other exotic plants within the wetlands biome. (Requires newly generated world)
-*Added ocean biome: Waterweed, kelp, clams, urchins and fish are now spawned within the ocean biome.
-*Deforestation: Felling trees now produces tree debris. This material is a nuisance to remove and inhibits the growth of other species within the area.
-*Fishing: Fish are now able to be caught and used as a resource, both with the fishing pole or fishing traps.
-'''Economy'''
-*Contracts
-**Contracts are created and posted at a Contract Board.
-**You can set a variety of clauses on a contract, combining various ones to describe many kinds of jobs.
-**Players accepting a contract will be given specific auth to do the work (ie, the Clean Tree Debris job will only allow them to remove debris, nothing else, on a property).
-**Added a ‘Custom Clause’ that allows you to specify in words what you want done, which then will have to be reviewed by the client before accepting it.
-***''Clauses:''
-***Remove Tree Stumps and Debris
-***Transport
-***Put Items In Container
-***Build Room
-***Build Road
-***Add/Remove Blocks
-***Payment
-***Custom Clause
-***Reputation Limiter
-***Receive Permissions
-***Nested Clause
-*Reputation
-**Players can give and receive reputation to one another, up to 10 points per day.
-**Player names will highlight different colors based on whether their reputation is good or bad.
-**Reputation from multiple people is weighted higher than reputation from fewer.
-**Contracts can be blocked based on reputation
-**Reputation is set by clicking the ‘reputation’ link in the player tooltip.
-*Player Objectives
-**A new dialog displaying the objective of each player is added. Use this to convey to others the projects you’re working on, and how they can help provide or sell you what you need.
-The leader of the server can set the World Status, which will be displayed in the server browser.
-*Player Credit
-**Every player has an associated credit currency named after them. This allows players to begin participating in the economy immediately, doing things like charging a fee on their craft table which players acquire credit for by selling to their store, which uses the same credit.
-**Players have infinite credit of their own type, and can give out freely with the /pay command.
-**Mints create ‘backed’ currency, which no one has an infinite supply of, thus making is much more stable as it requires resources to create more.
-**Added a Currency Exchange object, which allows players to passively sell/buy currency of any kind, transferring between currencies.
-'''Skills'''
+'''Bugfixes'''
-*Added skill options to the server, allowing different levels of skill cost inflation (flat and percentage) and limits on levels.
-*Added an option to allow unlearning skills.
-*Reworked skill costs and gains to be more consistent over the course of the game.
+*Server memory usage optimizations
-'''Performance'''
+*Big Stack bug StrangeLoopGames/EcoIssues#30
-*Various rendering tweaks and adjustments to improve rendering performance
+*Fixed Items disappear from backpack StrangeLoopGames/EcoIssues#31
-*Overhauled inventory system to improve general server performance
+*New player movement controller. This removes wall climbing, so be careful when wandering around the world now as it is more difficult.
-*Various Minimap performance improvements
+*Numerous other fixes. Check public bug list for current open issues.
