Island seeds

[Duke Flapjack]

Anyone know of any seeds that start you out on an island? I'm rather imagining a mediumish sized island that most of my residents live on and only using the mainland for resources.

Not quite what you're looking for but I just hit this one 133696727 on a small plains map. If I hit better while testing mods (I go through a LOT of maps) I'll keep adding to this post.

That's a good one! I like it a lot!

Great!

Would you also be interested in maps with a peninsula that is only connected by a tiny strip of land? I find those more often.

I suspect what I'm looking for is impossible on a normal sized map. I'm thinking it may be easier to find maps that have islands nearby to move on to.

I think I've seen what you're looking for once or twice, but yeah, you can probably find ones with unhabited island nearby more often. One of the reasons I offer the peninsulas is that you can always easily turn them into island (if you want) by terraforming away the land bridge and the map generator put you out on them occasionally.

Here's a really interesting one: normal, plains 3294180900.

It's a collection of medium/small islands and you start on the largest one. I'm trying to migrate my settlers down to the three medium islands near the bottom.

This one looks promising as well, although I haven't tried it yet: normal, plains 1424836877.

if you're expanding to island this might work well 1341081713 normal plains

[Duke Flapjack]

This is the one I'm currently playing: normal, plains, 601928978. There's a sizable island reasonably close to your starting point. I'm busy building a new barn and warehouse and I'm planning on demolishing my starting ones when I'm done and moving my settlement there.

oh fun :)

another small plains that might be of interest 3964241196. You're on the smaller of two main islands.

You might also have fun with the "what the hill?" challenge (just search the community) since you seem to like the idea of having a community where the resource development is external to it. That one starts you in an area that is barely bigger than your start button and that require either pretty significant terraforming due to cliffs or a bridge building to get to anything off of it.

Just found this one,

I hope this is similar to what you were looking for!

Its "990425330" on Normal size

That's a pretty good one!

[mindsweeper]

really interesting too: normal, plains 1502838827

you start on a pretty small island with a large one nearby.

Oh I wish I had seen that post an hour ago. I just had a normal size map with a sizable island nearby. Also I found that if you change the very last number in a seed it changes where you start. I've played around with random digits in the seed and gotten some interesting results.

Eh, since this thread has been resurrected, here's what I use: plains, regular, 315382553. You start on an island.

I think my next play I"m going to do something like this. I have one right now with some sand bar islands I'm makeing my Keep out on but I want to do something more island like. Good source of info guys thanks.
