General Discussion / Re: Awesome World Seeds
November 02, 2014, 04:24:05 PM
Just tried recreating a world a friend of mine has. Used the same seed for the for the world and same coords on the same size map. The general terrain is exactly the same. But the coolest part of his save is a thermal vent right next to a mountain that fills the whole east side of the map. It is not on mine though? I guess those are random on gen and not part of the seed?

world info
name:Algol Ksora (This name seems to be random each time the seed is used)
size: 400, 300
seedString: w3cv

save info:
size: 250,250
worldCoords: 196,26 (57.27E,6.93N)

Generated the colony several times and the vents were random each time. Still a very nice seed as the lower area only has 2 openings (over the lake and one more to the north) for access to a huge mountain. Blows to have to re-roll 3 characters over and over to try and get that vent back :P

Awesome location! It took me forever to find because it was way over in the corner of the map and I don't know how to zoom in to the corners.

For me it works by scrolling in/out with the mouse wheel and useing the direction keys between the main keys and keypad to move around.

I'm gonna start a new colony right now. Been wanting to do it for a while and see how long the initial 3 can survive. Might take a while, but I will roll all 3 as cannibals :)

Anyone who happens by, is dinner... might even try for 3 Sanguine Cannibals. But.. I will not look at them as cannibals...

Sanguinarians: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire_lifestyle#Sanguinarians)

Those that drink blood are called sanguinarians or "sanguine vampires". They and psychic vampires address themselves as "real vampires" and usually have a collective community. They believe they have a physical and/or spiritual need to drink human blood to maintain their mental and physical health.

That sounds like something "Randy Random" would do on any difficulty.

Thanks for looking into it, those dark patches beside mountains are annoying :P

Yes you are misunderstanding the bomb is there to turn "overhead mountain" into "thin rock roof" which allows you to then remove the supports (8 blocks away) and the "think rock roof" will fall and then you have open sky.

Well then :) This is still just as handy for other tasks. So I guess I'm stuck with the little overhangs as I don't want to dig into the mountain at those spots.

Is there anyway besides digging 8 in that I can remove those small overhangs?

Am I just using this wrong? I researched it, created a bomb in a spot that had a small overhang of thin rock roof outside my base. It appears to have done nothing as mousing over the spot it was in and the areas around it (3x3) still shows a thin rock roof and they still appear darkened.

Edit: P.S. I tried both with the version I downloaded last night (I assume 1x1) and also the new one from the last post (3x3).
