Factors to Consider When Choosing a Seed
- Resource Proximity: How close are vital ores like Copper, Tin, and Iron to your starting Core?
- Boss Accessibility: Are early bosses like Glurch, Ghorm, and the Hive Mother located conveniently?
- Biome Layout: Do you prefer large, open biomes or more complex cave systems? Is there early access to specific biomes you need (e.g., Clay Caves for crafting stations, Azeos' Wilderness for wood and feathers)?
- Points of Interest: Some seeds might have a higher density of ancient structures, Caveling camps, or scenic areas near the start.
Remember that while major world features are determined by the seed, minor resource placements and some smaller details can still have an element of randomness. Experimenting with different seeds is often the best way to find one that perfectly suits your playstyle.
