Help with Map Seed

[Monty]

So it may seem simple, but I am having difficulties with inputting other peoples seed to generate the same world as they are playing.

Firstly, I have no mods purely vanilla, but I have the Royalty DLC.

Secondly, whenever I input seeds, they never look the same as what other people have posted. The only thing I change from the settings is to disable infestations, change the globe coverage to whatever they said.

Thirdly, as an example I used ZERO's (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1978578981) starting location arid shrubland seed; hamlet, 30%, 1.70N, 8.57W. When I generated the world, the location wasn't in the same spot, and once in the map, it also wasn't the same.

So my question is, how do I input seeds correctly?

Which version of Rimworld are you running? Seeds for other versions aren't going to be the same for your version. Look for more recent seeds.

@Stariali, my version is 1.3.3087. But this issue is that some of the more recently posted seeds from like a month ago aren't the same as well. Is there a forum that you know of that posts recent seed locations?

You sure? Because the worlds generated by older seeds of mine that I keep on file are the exact same ones from before v1.3 as they are now.

I know something was changed between 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 and seeds didn't work in between those versions but I don't know about 1.3 since I don't bother with seeds anymore. It was one of those versions that changed seeds, I remember people complaining about it for a while on the seed reddit.

The only place I know that posts seeds is https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorldSeeds/

Using the same seeds during the post 1.3 small updates have generated different worlds for me while using the exact same settings.

OP, I could be mistaken, but changing any of the faction amounts (I assume this is how you're removing infestations) changes how the seed generates the world.

Ah, that might make sense. Thanks for the help guys
