Eco Server Hosting

Pay-per-use from about 0.0479 €/h for 4 GB RAM — billed per second, only while the server runs. For 24/7 worlds the fixed plan is cheaper: 4 GB from 12.00 €/month, 8 GB from 22.79 €/month, with 10-20% discounts on 90-360 day terms.

By default UDP 3000 for game traffic and TCP 3001 for the web interface and server queries. Both are preconfigured at RespawnHost; you can change them in Network.eco.

Yes. In Disasters.eco you set CreateMeteor to false or change MeteorImpactDays (default: 30 days). Important: the setting only applies to a newly generated world.

Eco has no hard slot limit. Typical worlds run with 10-30 players, large community worlds with 50+. The limit is server performance, not a slot counter — which is why we don't charge per slot.

For the default world (72x72) with a small group, 4 GB is enough. For 20-30 players with active politics and economy we recommend 12-16 GB, for large worlds and 50+ players 20-24 GB. Note: RAM usage grows with world age.

Yes, since 2018 — with regular major updates, most recently Update 13 on April 8, 2026 (logging machines, progression rework). The 1.0 release with animal husbandry is on the roadmap but has no fixed date as of July 2026.

Players can write constitutions, hold elections, pass laws, and impose taxes. It all runs permanently on the server – even when no players are online.

Yes. Stores, contracts, and automated trades keep running as long as the server is online. That's why we recommend 24/7 servers for active Eco worlds.

Yes. mod.io is the official hub for Eco mods: upload DLL mods to the Mods folder via SFTP, .cs overrides to Mods/UserCode. Players receive server mods automatically when they join — no manual installs needed.

Eco simulates a living ecosystem – that's CPU and RAM intensive, and demand grows with world size and world age. That's why we run modern AMD Ryzen CPUs – with NVMe SSDs.

We operate locations in Germany and in the USA (Salt Lake City). Choose your location when creating the server.

We exclusively use AMD Ryzen processors – in Germany modern AMD Ryzen CPUs with over 5 GHz boost and a 10 Gbit/s uplink. Storage runs on NVMe SSDs. We also keep a few reserve systems on hand for continuous availability.

The server itself comes online in under 90 seconds. Installing the Eco game files takes another 1-3 minutes depending on location.

Every server sits behind Premium Gaming DDoS Protection. It is always on at every location and included at no extra cost.

Yes. WorldGenerator.eco and Difficulty.eco control world size, biomes, skill rates, and specialty costs; the meteor is configured in Disasters.eco. Everything is editable via web interface or SFTP.

We create automatic backups. You can also create manual snapshots and restore any backup with one click from the web interface – important before big legislative changes.

The server stops automatically. World, characters, laws, contracts, and economy data are preserved. After topping up, everything continues right where you left off.

No. There is no contract and no minimum term at RespawnHost. You top up credit and use it whenever you want.

Restart the server – our system fetches the update automatically and installs it before booting. That's how you were on Update 13 from day one.

Yes, full SFTP access to all server files, including .eco configs, world saves, mods, and logs.

Yes. Admin rights are granted from the web interface; in-game commands cover weather, spawns, item granting, and world management.

At any time via the web interface or directly in Network.eco. Changes apply after a restart.

Yes. You can configure scheduled restarts (daily, weekly) from the web interface – useful for cleaning the memory footprint after long world runtimes.

On Discord typically within a few minutes; via the ticket system within minutes to hours.
