Hello Eco Citizens,
we're happy to announce the immediate availability of Update 11.1, let's take a look at what's new:

Dynamite and Mining Charges controllable by Remote Detonators can now be crafted, allowing you to mine comfortably before heavy machinery becomes available. For this we have - next to Peat, which is also new - added Sulfur to the world generation and introduced the new materials Black Powder, Blasting Cap and Nitric Acid.

Explosives convert rock and ores into their crushed form, making it easy to mine them with the scoop attachment for the Steam Tractor. Be cautious, though, explosives affect flora and fauna, move the ground, make blocks fall and can even destroy player-built structures - of course they respect authorization and civic restrictions. Boom!

We have added the ability to paint almost all land vehicles in multiple zones, allowing you to use your creativity and having your own, unique vehicle. We also added painting capability to the Blacksmith Table, Power Hammer, Storage Chest and Wall Mounted Chest as a preview for object painting.

The first vehicle we introduced to Eco got a full rework and highly improved steering capabilities, look at that beauty and try it out!

Maintenance using parts now also applies to generators and vehicles. We also added a new repair bounty system, allowing other players to repair your machinery while you are offline in exchange for payment.

We have reworked and majorly expanded the tutorial to explain more mechanics and guide players through towards their first base, fixing many issues the system had.

A new set of furniture made of logs is available in the early game, consisting of the Stump Bed, Stump Chair, Stump Latrine and Stump Table. Additionally we added a wooden sliding door and made the new Shoji Door available in the marketplace.
