PC Awesome seeds for random gen ALPHA 17.0-.1

I am using Blue Fang servers and apparently you can not just edit the game name and seed name or world size on the .xml file. You have to use a Command line editor in their dashboard. Also the world is pre set to a size of 6144 which seems a bit odd. I tried change the game name several times in the editor and it just keeps giving me the same map over and over on North Cisme mountains. editing the game was much esaier on Gameservers dot com but however they lacked customer service. Anyone familiar with how to get new maps on Blue Fang?

 
I think the lines you want to mess with are:

<property name="GameWorld" value="Navezgane"/><property name="WorldGenSeed" value="asdf"/>

<property name="WorldGenSize" value="4096"/>

But, I'm not sure what to set GameWorld to the first time. I believe that gets edited when the world gets generated but someone that knows more about it needs to let you know how to set it at first.

Yeah That is how I normally edit the files when I was with another server hosting company. However with Bluefang their command prompt editor over rides that. They have a weird service. I tried making the edits to the proper commands on the line editor but I seem to still always get the same map.

If GameWorld already exists it ignores the other two I think. So if you want it to create a world from scratch make sure that field doesn't match a World you already have. You can delete worlds from Data/Worlds.

 
Or the hoster is trash. They usually have a way to autoedit the serverkonfig XML to gate the available playerslots (what make sense iff you pay only for 10 slots it would be wrong to be able to raise that value)

Maybe they really set the max to 6k maps, if so, get a new hoster.

Maybe ask in a support ticket if 8k maps are possible

You can´t edit the xml files, because A17 is still labled as experimental at Bluefang. Someone there didn´t got the memo that A17 went stable.

 
HERE is a really really good seed, and one you will have no problem remembering.
SEED = Glueless

Cities! Cities everywhere!

Crazy wedge shaped biomes.

Unique places

New life Hope Cabin

Two traders in town, 50 yards away from each other. House forges nearby.

The town at 0,0 is filled with roller coaster streets but surprisingly no collapsing buildings.

Epic scenery.

Is that a city with all 3 biomes? Middle right.

Guys....I don't think we can share seeds like we used to. I just spent far too much time generating this seed, Glueless and it doesn't look anything similar

Seed 90991992: huge cities in nice biomes, good mix of prefabs, 10 skyscrapers (although most are 04 but you can change that in prefabs.xml).

It looks like your quoted one was generated during experimental before 238 or so when the biomes were generated like Nav and were large snow/forest/desert. your map was generated with stable 240 where they put back the crazy jigsaw random biomes that make little sense.

My understanding is that anything generated with the same build (ie. 240) will have the same biomes and street/city layouts, but there could be still some differences in the buildings actually placed...i may be wrong.

First it looks like this was from the first stages of A17 before they changed the randomness of bioams. Not that it would matter in this case but you would also need to make sure you have the right map size to match it.

Edit: sorry I thought i was on the last page and didn't see the post above my bad.

So, I have a map that I like that I made a week or so ago. I would like to redo it with some tweaks to the biome percentages. But I have forgotten the seed. It generates the name GIYUSA MOUNTAINS. I have looked through everything I can think of but cannot find or remember the seed. Is there any way to recover the seed so that I can generate a new map?

I changed mine by changing the command line... At the end you should have something like this

-WorldGenSize=6144 "-WorldGenSeed=314156"

Stop your server, Delete your world under /save (FTP)

edit your command line

Restart your server

Wait a few minutes

Done,

If you get stuck, there a pre done command line in the Drop Down menu under ''Templates''

It appears the world setting are not used from the severconfig.xml file...

Correct me if i am wrong, very new to this...

 
So my save is borked cause pc crashed during game. I found a way to transfer my stuff over a new game. How can i find the name of the seed i used? I only know that my previous seed generated the EAST SOARO COUNTY map. Thanks!

 
Hi All, does anyone know what it means when the world name is red as per my screenshot? I just created the world and it seems pretty cool but it's the only one I've ever seen with a red name, was wondering whether this meant there was a bug somewhere and whether it's worth carrying on.

I do now but not when I had taken the screenshot, I was trying something brand new.

It would be interesting if someone else tried 4288 and whether it went red for them too!

 
For me its not red (entered seed on the screen of your screenshot)

Generate the seed now in advanced modus (no issues st start generating)

Ah thanks for trying! That's strange then, can't seem to make any other world red but oh well it's working fine. :)
