Obligatory Seed Thread

[Chakkoty]

I've been experimenting with seeds and I'm curious what you guys found.
Try "Uppsala" and "Mercy" for some nice islands, both all medium except for wet humidity.
Correction: Uppsala has a nice mainland in the bottom left.

Here are some seeds from my gameplay, please note that all other settings are DEFAULT ("medium" everything)
Also playing on December 2020 version (latest as of now)

Fur stump slam -> very good map with much green space and less desert, land is contiguous and player can reach almost everything
- only 1 gemstone province
- other resource distribution is good
- current multiplayer map

Gronkh und Tobi -> quite some desert and less rugged
- 2 gemstone provinces relatively far apart -> fair
- other resource distribution is good

Forest slam baboon -> quite good map, rugged with some desert
- 1 gemstone province + 1 cluster of 3 gemstone provinces -> 4 gemstone provinces
- other resource distribution is good

Fur drop dingo -> quite some desert and not much rugged, can reach almost everything
- only 1 gemstone province
- other resource distribution is good

Since there was the Happyness update incl. Patches the 22th March 2021 the seed generation changed.

Now it seems to be much more unlikely for gemstones to generate.
Also the lands seem to generate in the same outlines, but rivers, mountain and desert distributions are very different.

Thus I updated the list of the seeds.
I tested them in Singleplayer with 3 AI players, putting my experiences in spoilers.
All settings are default (medium)
When talking about resources I usually go for gemstones and grapes :)

356318848 -> 2 big continents with lots of green space and rivers on the right places
- only 1 gemstone province
- gold is close to the gemstone province
- resource distribution is very good
- would consider it the perfect singleplayer map, but the AI has different views and puts its towncenter directly on top of the only gemstone province in the map, so I did not bother further ...

377220992 -> a big continent with much green area and quite some desert
- rivers are distributed well
- 1 cluster of 2 gemstone provinces + 1 gemstone province
- gold is close to the gemstone provinces
- resource distribution is good
- grape provinces are far away from gemstone provinces and small
- mountains separate the continent, which might be annoying if one wants every resource

415179904 -> 2 big continents, one has lots of green, while the other is more desert like
- desert continent has 2 gemstone provinces quite far apart
- gold is quite close to only one of the gemstone provinces
- iron and coal are close to both gemstone provinces
- cotton, grapes and cannabis close to both gemstone provinces
- resource distribution is good
- I had every resource to reach level 7 houses with a good placed townhall and an AI that was not too far away that wanted to take away my coffee (but I was faster)
- grape provinces are tiny, the one close to the bottom gemstone province has place for only 3 resource outposts

742088064 -> consider this a big desert continent
- 1 cluster of 2 gemstone provinces
- gold, iron and coal are close to the gemstone provinces
- resource distribution is good
- I had every resource (except cotton) to reach level 7 houses with a good placed townhall
- ranching (pigs, sheeps, cows etc.) is difficult (depending from where you start) as there is a lot of desert

912683456 -> everything is reachable with lots of rivers and very little desert
- only 1 gemstone province
- gold is far away from gemstone province, a well placed towncenter makes it and the gemstone province still reachable within the 7 province restriction radius
- resource distribution is qute good
- lots of rivers on the right places
- the map does not feel as broken as the other ones regarding resource clusters, but it has a lot of green and rivers, haven't given it a try yet but sure will
- my initial test show that I can reach almost every resource (except cotton and tulips) with a well placed towncenter

980910656 -> interesting map with multiple islands
- 1 cluster of 2 gemstone provinces
- gold is close to gemstone provinces
- resource distribution is good
- the island on the right is lacking rivers as it has quite a lot of desert
- river distribution on the other islands is good
- there is a place in the green with rivers and lots of good resources, but it misses grapes to be perfect for a non gemstone province area
- the desert island on the right has the gemstone provinces and it is possible to reach (almost) every resource in the 7 province restriction radius of the townhall

Forest slam baboon -> quite good map, rugged with some desert
- 2 gemstone provinces far apart
- gold is not near gemstone province on the left, gold is quite far away to the gemstone province on the right
- other resource distribution is good
- rivers distribution is good
- grape provinces are well distributed, but provinces are quite small
- it is possible to reach level 7 houses with resources close to both of the gemstone provinces

Fur drop dingo -> quite some desert and not much rugged, can reach almost everything
- only 1 gemstone province
- gold is next to gemstone province
- other resource distribution is good
- rivers distribution is very good
- grape distribution could be better
- a well placed towncenter allows to reach almost every rescource (except iron and tulips) in the 7 province restriction radius

Honorable mentions (seeds I considered awesome before the patch) which certainly should be checked out as well :)
- Dingo love dog
- Fur is on forest
- Fur stump slam
- Gronkh und Tobi
- Stump dig fur

I was looking for seeds and decided to just try the random button, and this looks like a very interesting multiplayer map. It's one long continent.
Seed: 275319680
Map Size: Large
It has tons of desert with a total of 10 gem provinces if that's of interest to you.

Panda stab dog
Huge island with loads of coal and gold for trade, as well as pine and rivers

[Ocean]

So uh 6 gems in about one big city span, several areas of large flat areas with nothing but farmland. plenty of coal and gold.
