Do you have any firewalls or antivir software installed? In that case, please disable both for testing.

Interesting, i've yet to play on a socialism server, never seen one.

I don't know, probably somewhere in moderators views on the subreddit page.

The rules in the rules tab are set correctly and i do see them correctly on mobile as well: https://ibb.co/G5LnfVf

I believe someone once told me there is some ominous "old" version of reddit, if you use that, that might be the cause. We're not updating that anymore.

Sorry, our game is about a different kind of PVP - based on opinions and fights about how things in society should be solved. You'd battle your corrupt world leader and the smelters not caring about the ecology rather than killing people. *g*

subreddit's about info in mobile version (small device screen) is different from sidebar rules displayed in version for big screens

Sorry, not too experienced with Reddit, how can i change this?

Still, it's one per cycle.

No, only if you do it wrongly.
If you are using a mount with "." you need the f, even if there wasn't one before.
/give Ecoylent would be the obvious choice, but the hunger is a core game mechanic and cannot be disabled. It really shouldn't either.
There is no further changes to the system requirements planned, but Eco is planned to be developed indefinately, hence when new technologies become available, Eco might make use of them.
Linux is supported for dedicated servers as of 9.0, but singleplayer follows in a later patch.
Well, even that is not true, as actually most server hosting companies use windows servers nowadays, just for the reason of most games not having linux dedicated servers anymore. All the games that have no dedicated servers available for download but only for hosting do run on Windows.
We actually have converted the server to .NET Core, so singleplayer support for Linux will likely be available soon, maybe even for 9.0. Still, linux gaming is a very little market, with less than 1% of our current population, with not much more to expect even with singleplayer available (i would be surprised if it would be different), so, no, it's not really limiting our player base, in all honesty. The game design is more limiting.
Being a long-time linux user myself i do understand your feelings, but some parts of the linux community don't seem to understand that they're a major minority and behave inadequate in regards to what the linux communities values actually are. (Freaking out at devs, including insulting, presenting them as a majority they aren't, being rude - everything seen already, unfortunately)
TL;DR: Singleplayer for Linux likely is available soon. The game ever already was available for Linux and Singleplayer is not what Eco is made for. And yes, that means server... Read more
We don't support linux servers. (Not because we don't want, but because there is no easy way to do so and resources are too limited to go the hard way for an unfortunately rather small player base) As the game runs on a server in singleplayer we have no way to offer that to linux players. If you run the server manually with mono, you can play on your computer. But keep in mind, that using mono is likely to cause a lot of issues and has a bad performance.
It's a steam related error.

cause you to experience the game in a very different, likely not good way

This is rather subjective, isn't it? My wife prefers the changes that were made. It's a good way to her.

I completely appreciate your point of view on this, as someone who is part of the Eco team, but there will always be people who enjoy some elements of your game and not others. Opening your game to mods and player-controlled adjustments allows for people to make those changes that they find more enjoyable. That changeability attracts a lot more players who would otherwise not have made the purchase (like my wife!).

I understand the reasoning behind this core mechanic and I know that a lot of careful consideration and work was done to utilize it effectively and I'm grateful for that work. I'm also grateful for the ability to adjust it to suit the multiple different kinds of games I have going.

Thank you for your input, all the same. I'm excited to watch the game develop as I play.

I have to give this recommendation. We had people that modded their games, didn't like it and subsequently went to Steam reviews to leave a negative review - stating stuff, that really isn't in the or caused by the game, but through modifications they made because they thought it was better like that.

We obiously don't want that, hence i'm warning you that this change makes Eco no longer being Eco. It's not what we designed and nothing we feel fits Eco. If your wife likes it like that, you can of course mod the game to your liking in any way you want, it's just that often what people feel they like will have countless side effects in as complex games as this and suddenly they don't like it anymore when they see what consequences these are. If we get the negative review for that, that makes us sad.

It's not far-fetched that there is a big possibility that you'll see a lot of items in the game simply no longer needed with this change, effectively removing them from the game, making it...

I mean . . . the meteor is there for a reason, too, and I can turn that off. As I said, this is just a laid back LAN game I play with my wife. Whether her preferred play style is "recommended" is kind of irrelevant.

If it's impractical, it's impractical. But it was worth looking into! Thanks for the info.

It is very relevant as doing this change would likely cause you to experience the game in a very different, likely not good way, as this behaviour is one of the core design systems. It's obviously your decision what you want to do, but i still felt the need to tell you, as it seems very relevant to me.

The meteor can be disabled intendedly, the game was made with disabled meteor in mind.

You could mod all the items that have requirements, but to to be honest, those are there for a reason, if you could just place anything everywhere there would be zero requirement to build houses at all, which would lead to zero of the materials being required which would lead to ... i assume you got it.

Or in short: There is no official way to do it and we neither recommend doing it unofficially.

No, you're doing it right. Imagine it's just seeping into the ground and polluting the area. *g*

Your mod files are corrupted. Save your storage folder, uninstall Eco, remove the whole Eco folder, reinstall Eco and copy the storage folder in again.
