Interesting Starting seeds.

I know there is a thread that lists some of these but i can not leave a message on it so left this instead. Dabbling through some random names, i came across 2 interesting ones. 1. I put THUNDERCAT in as a seed and got a lovely large area with resources all quite local and a great place to build camp with 5 crashed ships all within radius of a lightning rod. BUT, i get a storm right at the start and no mater where i put KEN even under a rock face he gets hit by lightning twice and screws him up permanently even after restarting a few time. 2. I then put BATMAN as a starter and got a nice area with a lovely large flat plain to the right but up a hill, I have managed to get set up with my fields and a small shelter ready to start building my main base. I had no survivor join me until i went off in my balloon and got NOVA, then went to a distress call and got ANNETTE so 6 survivors i now have.

Very cool. Im playing a seed called IDEAL-JUMP and its pretty good except grains are very hard to find. I started out with 4 survivors and out of nowhere another survivor came into my group of survivors. I love this game. There is always something happening.

It is truly hilarious that in a seed named THUNDERCAT I am having Ken be struck by lightning not once, but twice.

Fantastic starting seed otherwise, just the right amount of hay and sticks nearby. You have to use some scrap metal to speed-construct a shelter to draft and put Ken in for the first little while if you want to avoid Zeus's fury

Will have to try that as the storm comes that quick. But will go back to it when i have had fun with BATMAN. Only problem i have is that KEN isnt gathering as much electronics soo hard to put up or use stuff that uses them even had to wait a while to research the soldering bench. But its still a good map

A nice one is VISUAL-SCHOOL. Another seed i played is DARE-CLOUD.

Care to expand a little on why you feel its "nice"?

[Apollo]

SCREEN-TOWEL
UNION-TIE

Both have lots of space to build, all resources available (some a bit further away), lots of animals.

In VISUAL-SCHOOL is the starting point a large plain and most of the resources are nearby.
Breakthrough is Graphene Solar Cells and Battery Optimization that i think is useful to begin with.
In DARE-CLOUD the resources are close by and at the starting point it is flat but not as big as in the other seed.

The most important part about Seeds is the starting Tech. Feel you need to list it if you are going to make a list.

The best techs in the game are probably 3d printing and carbon wind turbines. Once you have both online you are essentially limitless with power. If you could also find a seed with battery optimization that would be amazing.

The seed I used that had the other two starting techs was 8675309.

The seed i am trying is cat-dog
Breakthroughs
Carbon wind turbines
Printed components
Fuel Fermentation
Balloon optimization
Improved railgun snipers

Resources near by
Bright leafed plant
Blade grass
Pointy red plant
Wide leafed plant
Squash like plant
Orange mushrooms
Tube plant
Giant grass
Berry plant
Stone
Ore deposits x2 (a little away's)
3 water points
Land is open perfect for building and expanding with ease
Perfect farmland (100% growth)
Plenty of wrecks to keep your scrap needs at bay.

BATMAN has all three of the Techs you are on about as i am playing with them.

Any survivors walk ins? If yes, approximately when?

Sadly no.

Dang, ok. Other than that sounded like a perfect seed. I prefer those exact breakthroughs. I might still try it and get lucky with a Expedition.

DEVIL-SPAWN is my favourite thus far.

You get a walk-in after a week. Rhaka.

Graphene solar panels as the only exciting research but they are good.

Lots of wood, some stone for the basic needs, cotton and regular corn. Syrup is plenty and there are melons to cover your starting soup.

5 thunderstorms during the first 10 days makes it cosy and they are long.

What´s not to like? :-D
