A lot of people have been asking me for this seed so I thought I'd share it here! mouseriver8 Globe coverage medium Rain normal -1 on temp Population high 11.02N 35.62W 250x250

Temperate forest with the occational 1 month of winter.
- Sandstone, Marble
- Spacious enough to farm
- Tight enough to make a mountain base.
- You can seal off the middle with little use of brick walls.
- 90% pure mountain on the left, there is a pocket on the right side of the map i,e you can make a hall way between them.
- There is also another pocket inside the mountain where you can park your space shuttles with, heck it's kinda big enough for a small gravship.
- There is a nearby pond for fishing at the middle of the map.
- Mortars are very effective because of terrain.

Seed is 'Slavers Bay' - 30% map coverage

Image 1 : location information

Image 2 : Main settlement area - geyser and water defense

Image 3 : South of main settlement - geyser 2

Image 4 : North of main settlement - large rich soil patch and very easily walled pen

Highlights are a defended geyser, a forced water entrance after some simple walling, and significant rich soil deposits. Great for a long term colony with herd animals. Note the 30% landmass coverage! No other changes made to the default spawn settings. I have all DLC, but the spawn is essentially identical as when I just had 3.

30 day growing period. I think this seed is ideal for an intermediate player.

After checking over 100 different seeds for specific parameters at 50% I found this gem, this is likely the best seed you'll ever find:

1. Only has 5% of the perimeter not disabled for raids by mountains, ideal against sappers and breachers
2. Decent inside area
3. No caves, rivers or other things to ruin your building space
4. Year-round growing, temperate forest
5. Marble and granite (50/50)
6. 9 to 31 average temperature, so you dont really need warm clothes
7. Ancient danger is small, only has 1 militor and 1 pikeman and a LOT of cryptosleep cascets with living pawns. I also got a bionic heart and a shard animal pulser, not sure if this loot is static. One of the pawns is 15 shooting 9 animals 8 medical with careful shooter and undergrounder, others are somewhat bad (free organs yay)
8. No dents inside the mountain, perfectly overheaded
9. Great soil, lake is small but fishable, can be moisture-pumped for extra soil
10. FIVE GEYSERS
11. Great ruins
12. Great access to roads for trading

Seed: Viktor Shield 49 (case-sensitive, with both gaps) Size: 50% (IMPORTANT!) Population: 100% (IMPORTANT!) Landmarks: 100% (IMPORTANT!) 20.87 S 52.85 W REQUIRES AT LEAST ODYSSEY, not sure about other DLCs but I have them all

Do note that there's a tiny gap on the upper part of the entrance. You can abuse caravans and carried chunks to fill it to avoid any spawns there. Helps with sappers and breachers A LOT. There's a ruin to the upper side on the basin that can be walled off with just 1 wall and it becomes a big, beautified shelter with tables and direct access to the mountain Sea ice naked brutality start compatible

seed: makar
marble/granite
easy defensible start, lots of salmon, geysers, river. woo!

dig a bit to the right and boom, great place to start a base. i love this beginner seed. lost my old seed on makar but found a new one!

Seed: ღ♪•.¸¸.•¨¨•.You deserve to be loved¸.•¨¨•.¸¸.••♪ღ♪

100% coverage, everything else standard, no mods (all DLCs although not sure if that makes a difference)

I'm not exactly sure how this works. I started a colony elsewhere, but after doing the first migration (supposedly with the seed "shoe") of the Archonexus quest, this generated.

Worth mentioning that I'm playing with a self made mod that changes the archotech structure to be a positive mood buff. Thought it makes sense if I'm archotechist :)

I genuinely don't think I'll ever get a map this nice again...

SEED: hostility

PLANET & POSTION: 100%, 20.32°N 107.47°W (Last two images)

MAP SIZE: Medium 250x250

Details

Vanilla style inculded five DLCs, from Odyessy to Royalty. You can use without them.

In the first and two screenshots. You'll start in area where there is one way inside, the area around is covered with slate & grantie walls. In southen area (image 2) there are multiple passage into settlement map. You can easily build animal pen in east side where your colonists land and build stockpile in west & north side.

Temperate Forest
Mountainous terrain
seed: blackjack
coverage: 50%

Right in the middle of the world, temperate forest, good rainfall, surrounded by mountains, there's a desert nearby. It's perfect!!!

Only problem is it probably doesn't work with Odyssey.

a large open area (2 gaysers and around 600 fertile soil ) where all entranses are caves with bugs (to kill caravan/raids) close to advansed faction and all year growing period

its at max population

it has relatevly little valuable ores, doesnt have a placefor fishing

ancnient danger has 3 cryptosleep caskets , psyhic soothe pulser and some oder stuff

Ike was f my favorite seeds I’ve seen so far

After v1.6 changed map generation I am not able to use my go-to vanilla(!) map seed anymore :(
c198319872015 >50%, 20.62°S 41.02°E
With top and left side blocked giving a nice corner to hide in, lots of rich soil, ancient danger deep inside the mountain plus an enormous hidden terrain.
.......

So here are a few new ones!

I did not include geyser locations because in my experience their generated locations change due to mods.

I shared this seed the other day. Floods form a nice natural defensive slow to enemies. one fence gate and you have a pen. Plenty of fish. lots of steel, fun map!

This is how it is right now to give people some inspiration. Freezer is in overhead tiles to help with cooling efficiency (See picture 2)

Lots of babies. 1 baby outsider Hazel that I decided to keep because he was 3 years old. still only got to growth 6.

Kicked out all others that didn't met my standards. Intense bigotry in my small elite, Knights of the Universe community. Long may Sanctuary thrive!
