Can one millstone handle multiple jobs at once? If so, how many? Do I need to build multiple millstones to grind up my dimple cup farm's large output?
* With the mill plants task on repeat, I've always been limited by bag production and not capacity of the millstone. However I normally build two just because I can power that from one windmill. [[User:Coelocanth|Coelocanth]] 11:14, 27 November 2007 (EST)

Unless you want to power multiple mills then the gear assembly is unnecessary too you could put the mill directly under the vertical axle/ windmill
* Are you sure? The millstone showed as unpowered when I tried that [[User:Coelocanth|Coelocanth]] 12:44, 29 November 2007 (EST)

A '''millstone''' is used to grind up certain [[plant]]s to make [[flour]] and [[dye]]. To operate, it needs to be connected to a mechanical [[power]] source such as a [[water wheel]] or [[windmill]] that supplies it with 10 power units. If none is available, a [[quern]] can be used instead. Before they can be placed as a building, you must first build the millstone at a [[Mason's Workshop]].

If the power to the millstone is interrupted, any jobs must be requeued when power is returned. Therefore it is best to have uninterrupted power or at least the ability to run it for a long period of time.

Here, the windmill is built "hanging" on top of the millstone. You can build walls around the millstone if you like, but they're not required. Once the windmill is built, the access stairwell can be deconstructed. Since the windmill is "hanging" in midair, removing the millstone will cause the windmill to fall down.

(Alternatively, the whole operation can be shifted down one level, so the windmill is built on a stable surface on the ground level and the millstone is underground. Be sure to build the windmill first, then the millstone, or your millstone will not be powered!)

Level -2 has the millstone built beside a gear assembly. 
Level -1 has a vertical axle built over the gear assembly (first remove the floor by designating a channel). You can skip this level if you want a millstone right below the surface, or you can repeat it multiple times to take power deep inside the mountain. 
Level 0 has the windmill (the center tile is above the vertical axle).

40d:Pregenerated worlds

2008-07-25T15:00:19Z

Zwergner:

'''Pregenerated worlds''' are worlds that have been created and uploaded for use by others, so they may skip world generation, and are independent of version{{v|0.27.169.33g}}. '''Seeds''' are numbers that tell the world generator which world to create. These are usually given for particularly good [[location]]s, or for quick generating time. Below is a list of worlds and seeds that users have made, along with any interesting locations. Feel free to share and add to the list.

== World generation changes ==

Versions 0.27.169.33f and 0.27.169.33g changed the way world generation works slightly, so seeds from earlier versions will generate different worlds; these are archived at [[Seed archive]]. Random and custom names do not affect world generation. However, modifications to your raw files before world generation could cause a different world to be generated.

Version 0.23.173.38a (with the army arc work) has changed world generation again, so that seeds from earlier versions do not create the same worlds.

Version 0.23.176.38a has changed world generation (cave changes) once again.

Version 0.23.176.38b seems to have changed, possibly due to the new parameter options.

== Downloadable worlds ==

Downloadable worlds are worlds which have been generated and then compressed into a single archive file for sharing over the internet. Download the file then extract the folder inside the archive into your /data/save folder in order to use it.

This is a loaded 4x7 fortress location with plenty of every major resource. Location has fairly mild cliffs, and the surroundings are Warm and Untamed Wilds. 
While sufficient trees are available (a few hundred), you can expand north to make it a 5x7 area with more trees than you should ever need. There is unfortunately no extra obsidian beyond that surrounding the magma.

* '''Adamantine''': just southeast of the middle.
* '''Magma''': underground magma pool, located on layers 150-147 in the southwest corner.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.
* '''Trees''': A few hundred of them.
* '''Sand''': Plenty of white sand.
* '''Iron''': Plenty of magnetite patches along with some hematite and limonite veins.
* '''Flux''': Plenty of chalk.

This is a loaded 3x6 location with basically every major resource. No chasm, cliffs are no taller than 2, surroundings are Temperate and Mirthful. 
If you don't need a river, you can trim it to 3x5 by taking off the bottom edge and still get everything else.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.

[[Image:Ruspospazmon_location.png|thumb|500px]]

This is a 4x3 location with most major resources. No chasm, cliffs are very tall (6-9), surroundings are Scorching and Calm. There is a small spot of aquifer, just enough to be potentially useful while still out of the way. 
If you need a river, you can expand the selection north to include some river fingers and possibly west to also include a stretch of normal river. This will likely include more aquifer though.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': only if you expand the area slightly.
* '''Aquifer''': There's a tiny area of it towards the top left on a few levels.
* '''Trees''': Yep.
* '''Sand''': Yep.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Yes, towards the top and middle.
* '''Flux''': Yep.
* '''Fuel''': Yep.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

[[Image:Emeecamo_Ametha_location.png|thumb|500px]]

This is a nice 3x3 (or potentially 2x2) location with almost all major resources. No chasm or sand available, cliffs are no higher than 1 (!), surroundings are Scorching and Untamed Wilds. The brook has a semi-waterfall where it drops 1 Z-level, causing a somewhat odd scene. 
If you don't need a river or as many trees, you could actually make it a 2x2 area instead with all other resources by cutting off the bottom and right edges.

* '''Adamantine''': in the middle.
* '''Magma''': Upper left corner, the top is fully open to the ground.
* '''River''': Yes, with a waterfall.
* '''Trees''': Limited, but enough to make do.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Plenty.
* '''Flux''': More chalk than you could ever need.
* '''Fuel''': Plenty.
* '''Bauxite''': Some, check bottom middle of map one level below the lone hill.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.
 
[[Image:Emeecamo_Ametha_location2.png|thumb|500px]]

This is another nice location in this world. It is 5x3 with almost all major resources. No chasm, bauxite, or sand available. Cliffs progress up a few levels from left to right, surroundings are Warm and Calm. The magma vent is underground but only 2 levels deep. 
There is so much iron here (many many magnetite clusters) that you'll practically get sick of it. There seem to be more diamonds scattered around here than normal as well.

* '''Adamantine''': upper right corner.
* '''Magma''': lower right corner, underground. Only on levels 148-149, so unfortunately very shallow.
* '''River''': Yes, a small river bend in the upper left corner.
* '''Trees''': Not overabundant, but not scarce either.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Massive amounts; good luck making a dent in it.
* '''Flux''': Take your pick between dolomite and chalk, tons of each.
* '''Fuel''': Limited amounts of lignite, mostly in the upper levels on the left side.
* '''Obsidian''': Plenty of it in the upper left corner at the higher z-levels.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

== Seeds ==
'''{{edit|{{PAGENAME}}/{{current/version}}|Click here to add a seed!}}'''
Seeded worlds are special "codes" which tell the game's pseudo-random number generator (a sophisticated mathematical function which produces numbers that seem random) where to begin generating a world. Because the random number generator is actually just a mathematical function and thus always produces the same result when given a certain input, you can "seed" the generator to produce an entire series of random numbers on another computer that are exactly the same as they were originally produced on the first computer.

However modifications to your raw files can affect worldgen so please state what mods you are using if you post a seed with a non default DF.

To use a seeded world, select ''Create a New World'' during the main menu, then hit {{key|s}} to specify a seed. Type in the seed and hit {{key|Enter}}, then hit {{key|Enter}} one more time to begin generation. It will still take the normal amount of time to generate the world, and you will still have rejects before the world is produced.

Mineral content is determined at the time it is allocated, (essentially when you dig near it). Accordingly the map seed determines the layers and therefore the probability of certain rocks/ores, but the ore veins themselves will vary.

A further warning: there may be other things that affect world generation, such as your operating system. If you generate a world different from one described here, with exactly the same seed, please mention it with the relevant details (operating system including any service packs, processor type, and game version) on the [[Talk:Pregenerated worlds|talk page]].

Here are seeds generated in older versions. They may not generate the same world if you are using '''v{{current/version}}''':

== World Generation Parameter Sets ==
With the release of 0.28.181.39a, ''Design New World With Paramaters'' gained a slew of new features. Almost any parameter that would be associated with a world can now be given start values, end values, limits, and more. Players can create their own parameter sets to generate worlds with specific features. Sets can also set specific seeds to generate a specific world.

Parameter sets are stored in ''world_gen.txt'' in the ''\data\init'' folder. You can copy and paste other player's sets of parameters into your ''world_gen.txt'' to use their parameter sets.

[[World tokens]] are the individual parameter representations.

One place to find parameter sets for world generation is the [http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=20638.0 Worldgen cookbook] thread on the official forums.

40d:Pregenerated worlds

2008-07-22T15:01:08Z

Zwergner:

'''Pregenerated worlds''' are worlds that have been created and uploaded for use by others, so they may skip world generation, and are independent of version{{v|0.27.169.33g}}. '''Seeds''' are numbers that tell the world generator which world to create. These are usually given for particularly good [[location]]s, or for quick generating time. Below is a list of worlds and seeds that users have made, along with any interesting locations. Feel free to share and add to the list.

== World generation changes ==

Versions 0.27.169.33f and 0.27.169.33g changed the way world generation works slightly, so seeds from earlier versions will generate different worlds; these are archived at [[Seed archive]]. Random and custom names do not affect world generation. However, modifications to your raw files before world generation could cause a different world to be generated.

Version 0.23.173.38a (with the army arc work) has changed world generation again, so that seeds from earlier versions do not create the same worlds.

Version 0.23.176.38a has changed world generation (cave changes) once again.

Version 0.23.176.38b seems to have changed, possibly due to the new parameter options.

== Downloadable worlds ==

Downloadable worlds are worlds which have been generated and then compressed into a single archive file for sharing over the internet. Download the file then extract the folder inside the archive into your /data/save folder in order to use it.

This is a loaded 4x7 fortress location with plenty of every major resource. Location has fairly mild cliffs, and the surroundings are Warm and Untamed Wilds. 
While sufficient trees are available (a few hundred), you can expand north to make it a 5x7 area with more trees than you should ever need. There is unfortunately no extra obsidian beyond that surrounding the magma.

* '''Adamantine''': just southeast of the middle.
* '''Magma''': underground magma pool, located on layers 150-147 in the southwest corner.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.
* '''Trees''': A few hundred of them.
* '''Sand''': Plenty of white sand.
* '''Iron''': Plenty of magnetite patches along with some hematite and limonite veins.
* '''Flux''': Plenty of chalk.

This is a loaded 3x6 location with basically every major resource. No chasm, cliffs are no taller than 2, surroundings are Temperate and Mirthful. 
If you don't need a river, you can trim it to 3x5 by taking off the bottom edge and still get everything else.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.
* '''Trees''': More than you'll ever use.

This is a 4x3 location with most major resources. No chasm, cliffs are very tall (6-9), surroundings are Scorching and Calm. There is a small spot of aquifer, just enough to be potentially useful while still out of the way. 
If you need a river, you can expand the selection north to include some river fingers and possibly west to also include a stretch of normal river. This will likely include more aquifer though.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': only if you expand the area slightly.
* '''Aquifer''': There's a tiny area of it towards the top left on a few levels.

This is a nice 3x3 (or potentially 2x2) location with almost all major resources. No chasm or sand available, cliffs are no higher than 1 (!), surroundings are Scorching and Untamed Wilds. The brook has a semi-waterfall where it drops 1 Z-level, causing a somewhat odd scene. 
If you don't need a river or as many trees, you could actually make it a 2x2 area instead with all other resources by cutting off the bottom and right edges.

* '''Adamantine''': in the middle.
* '''Magma''': Upper left corner, the top is fully open to the ground.
* '''River''': Yes, with a waterfall.
* '''Trees''': Limited, but enough to make do.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Plenty.
* '''Flux''': More chalk than you could ever need.
* '''Fuel''': Plenty.
* '''Bauxite''': Some, check bottom middle of map one level below the lone hill.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.
 
[[Image:Emeecamo_Ametha_location2.png|thumb|500px]]

This is another nice location in this world. It is 5x3 with almost all major resources. No chasm, bauxite, or sand available. Cliffs progress up a few levels from left to right, surroundings are Warm and Calm. The magma vent is underground but only 2 levels deep. 
There is so much iron here (many many magnetite clusters) that you'll practically get sick of it. There seem to be more diamonds scattered around here than normal as well.

* '''Adamantine''': upper right corner.
* '''Magma''': lower right corner, underground. Only on levels 148-149, so unfortunately very shallow.
* '''River''': Yes, a small river bend in the upper left corner.
* '''Trees''': Not overabundant, but not scarce either.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Massive amounts; good luck making a dent in it.
* '''Flux''': Take your pick between dolomite and chalk, tons of each.
* '''Fuel''': Limited amounts of lignite, mostly in the upper levels on the left side.
* '''Obsidian''': Plenty of it in the upper left corner at the higher z-levels.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

== Seeds ==
'''{{edit|{{PAGENAME}}/{{current/version}}|Click here to add a seed!}}'''
Seeded worlds are special "codes" which tell the game's pseudo-random number generator (a sophisticated mathematical function which produces numbers that seem random) where to begin generating a world. Because the random number generator is actually just a mathematical function and thus always produces the same result when given a certain input, you can "seed" the generator to produce an entire series of random numbers on another computer that are exactly the same as they were originally produced on the first computer.

However modifications to your raw files can affect worldgen so please state what mods you are using if you post a seed with a non default DF.

To use a seeded world, select ''Create a New World'' during the main menu, then hit {{key|s}} to specify a seed. Type in the seed and hit {{key|Enter}}, then hit {{key|Enter}} one more time to begin generation. It will still take the normal amount of time to generate the world, and you will still have rejects before the world is produced.

Mineral content is determined at the time it is allocated, (essentially when you dig near it). Accordingly the map seed determines the layers and therefore the probability of certain rocks/ores, but the ore veins themselves will vary.

A further warning: there may be other things that affect world generation, such as your operating system. If you generate a world different from one described here, with exactly the same seed, please mention it with the relevant details (operating system including any service packs, processor type, and game version) on the [[Talk:Pregenerated worlds|talk page]].

Here are seeds generated in older versions. They may not generate the same world if you are using '''v{{current/version}}''':
*[[Seed archive]] (pre 0.27.173.38a)

== World Generation Parameter Sets ==
With the release of 0.27.176.39a, ''Design New World With Paramaters'' gained a slew of new features. Almost any parameter that would be associated with a world can now be given start values, end values, limits, and more. Players can create their own parameter sets to generate worlds with specific features. Sets can also set specific seeds to generate a specific world.

Parameter sets are stored in ''world_gen.txt'' in the ''\data\init'' folder. You can copy and paste other player's sets of parameters into your ''world_gen.txt'' to use their parameter sets. [[World tokens]] are the individual parameter representations.

One place to find parameter sets for world generation is the [http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=20638.0 Worldgen cookbook] thread on the official forums.

40d:Pregenerated worlds

2008-07-22T14:56:58Z

Zwergner:

'''Pregenerated worlds''' are worlds that have been created and uploaded for use by others, so they may skip world generation, and are independent of version{{v|0.27.169.33g}}. '''Seeds''' are numbers that tell the world generator which world to create. These are usually given for particularly good [[location]]s, or for quick generating time. Below is a list of worlds and seeds that users have made, along with any interesting locations. Feel free to share and add to the list.

== World generation changes ==

Versions 0.27.169.33f and 0.27.169.33g changed the way world generation works slightly, so seeds from earlier versions will generate different worlds; these are archived at [[Seed archive]]. Random and custom names do not affect world generation. However, modifications to your raw files before world generation could cause a different world to be generated.

Version 0.23.173.38a (with the army arc work) has changed world generation again, so that seeds from earlier versions do not create the same worlds.

Version 0.23.176.38a has changed world generation (cave changes) once again.

Version 0.23.176.38b seems to have changed, possibly due to the new parameter options.

== Downloadable worlds ==

Downloadable worlds are worlds which have been generated and then compressed into a single archive file for sharing over the internet. Download the file then extract the folder inside the archive into your /data/save folder in order to use it.

This is a loaded 4x7 fortress location with plenty of every major resource. Location has fairly mild cliffs, and the surroundings are Warm and Untamed Wilds. 
While sufficient trees are available (a few hundred), you can expand north to make it a 5x7 area with more trees than you should ever need. There is unfortunately no extra obsidian beyond that surrounding the magma.

* '''Adamantine''': just southeast of the middle.
* '''Magma''': underground magma pool, located on layers 150-147 in the southwest corner.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.
* '''Trees''': A few hundred of them.
* '''Sand''': Plenty of white sand.
* '''Iron''': Plenty of magnetite patches along with some hematite and limonite veins.
* '''Flux''': Plenty of chalk.

[[Image:Smata_Sagus_location.png|thumb|500px]]

This is a loaded 3x6 location with basically every major resource. No chasm, cliffs are no taller than 2, surroundings are Temperate and Mirthful. 
If you don't need a river, you can trim it to 3x5 by taking off the bottom edge and still get everything else.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.
* '''Trees''': More than you'll ever use.
* '''Sand''': Yep.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Magnetite patches near the surface, along with an occasional hematite and limonite vein.
* '''Flux''': More than you'll ever use.

[[Image:Ruspospazmon_location.png|thumb|500px]]

This is a 4x3 location with most major resources. No chasm, cliffs are very tall (6-9), surroundings are Scorching and Calm. There is a small spot of aquifer, just enough to be potentially useful while still out of the way. 
If you need a river, you can expand the selection north to include some river fingers and possibly west to also include a stretch of normal river. This will likely include more aquifer though.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': only if you expand the area slightly.
* '''Aquifer''': There's a tiny area of it towards the top left on a few levels.
* '''Trees''': Yep.
* '''Sand''': Yep.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Yes, towards the top and middle.
* '''Flux''': Yep.

This is a nice 3x3 (or potentially 2x2) location with almost all major resources. No chasm or sand available, cliffs are no higher than 1 (!), surroundings are Scorching and Untamed Wilds. The brook has a semi-waterfall where it drops 1 Z-level, causing a somewhat odd scene. 
If you don't need a river or as many trees, you could actually make it a 2x2 area instead with all other resources by cutting off the bottom and right edges.

* '''Adamantine''': in the middle.
* '''Magma''': Upper left corner, the top is fully open to the ground.
* '''River''': Yes, with a waterfall.
* '''Trees''': Limited, but enough to make do.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Plenty.
* '''Flux''': More chalk than you could ever need.
* '''Fuel''': Plenty.
* '''Bauxite''': Some, check bottom middle of map one level below the lone hill.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.
 
[[Image:Emeecamo_Ametha_location2.png|thumb|500px]]

This is another nice location in this world. It is 5x3 with almost all major resources. No chasm, bauxite, or sand available. Cliffs progress up a few levels from left to right, surroundings are Warm and Calm. The magma vent is underground but only 2 levels deep. 
There is so much iron here (many many magnetite clusters) that you'll practically get sick of it. There seem to be more diamonds scattered around here than normal as well.

* '''Adamantine''': upper right corner.
* '''Magma''': lower right corner, underground. Only on levels 148-149, so unfortunately very shallow.
* '''River''': Yes, a small river bend in the upper left corner.
* '''Trees''': Not overabundant, but not scarce either.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Massive amounts; good luck making a dent in it.
* '''Flux''': Take your pick between dolomite and chalk, tons of each.
* '''Fuel''': Limited amounts of lignite, mostly in the upper levels on the left side.
* '''Obsidian''': Plenty of it in the upper left corner at the higher z-levels.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

== Seeds ==
'''{{edit|{{PAGENAME}}/{{current/version}}|Click here to add a seed!}}'''
Seeded worlds are special "codes" which tell the game's pseudo-random number generator (a sophisticated mathematical function which produces numbers that seem random) where to begin generating a world. Because the random number generator is actually just a mathematical function and thus always produces the same result when given a certain input, you can "seed" the generator to produce an entire series of random numbers on another computer that are exactly the same as they were originally produced on the first computer.

However modifications to your raw files can affect worldgen so please state what mods you are using if you post a seed with a non default DF.

To use a seeded world, select ''Create a New World'' during the main menu, then hit {{key|s}} to specify a seed. Type in the seed and hit {{key|Enter}}, then hit {{key|Enter}} one more time to begin generation. It will still take the normal amount of time to generate the world, and you will still have rejects before the world is produced.

Mineral content is determined at the time it is allocated, (essentially when you dig near it). Accordingly the map seed determines the layers and therefore the probability of certain rocks/ores, but the ore veins themselves will vary.

A further warning: there may be other things that affect world generation, such as your operating system. If you generate a world different from one described here, with exactly the same seed, please mention it with the relevant details (operating system including any service packs, processor type, and game version) on the [[Talk:Pregenerated worlds|talk page]].

Here are seeds generated in older versions. They may not generate the same world if you are using '''v{{current/version}}''':
*[[Seed archive]] (pre 0.27.173.38a)
*[[Pregenerated worlds/0.27.173.38a|v0.27.173.38a]]

*[[Pregenerated_worlds/0.27.176.38c|v0.27.176.38c]]

The following seeds were generated with version '''{{current/version}}'''. If you have a seed with a good starting location, feel free to add it.

Parameter sets are stored in ''world_gen.txt'' in the ''\data\init'' folder. You can copy and paste other player's sets of parameters into your ''world_gen.txt'' to use their parameter sets.

One place to find parameter sets for world generation is the [http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=20638.0 Worldgen cookbook] thread on the official forums.

== Standardization ==
Along with creating a template for the entries, the images need to all be with the standard character sets and not with a graphical set. It's not very useful to be looking at images one is unfamiliar with - may as well not upload the images. --[[User:Geofferic|Geofferic]] 17:39, 10 December 2007 (EST) 
::Definitely something to work on with standardizing the information on seeds. Though maybe later, as all you really need to be able to look at is the X marking locations and size of the box on the local map. I finished categorizing the seeds, and later will be trying to work out a general format for seed entries/later submittals. --[[User:KaelGotRice|KaelGotRice]] 18:07, 10 December 2007 (EST)
 
Personally, I find the way Chariot implemented his seed page[http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/User:Chariot/SEED_196405198] wonderful. The seed entry here on the pregen page could use a little more detail (OS&DF version for instance) but the separate page with site-by-site breakdowns is great! I've got little/no experience with wikis, but I'm wondering if it would be possible to make a template to do that, and make it easy for any new seeds to be added using the template. Among other things, it would keep discussion of seeds specific to their own pages, and leave this discussion free to concentrate on the generalities of seeds and pre-gen worlds. In addition, it should either be reclassified or duplicated to indicate that it's also a 0/low rejects seed. --[[User:n9103|n9103]] 11:10, 17 Dec 2007 (PST)
:I made a quickly thrown together template for seeded worlds [[Template:Seeded World]], and have made a copy of Pauls world (for .33f) in it. It still needs alot of tuning (especially conditional #if for when entries are left open), as well as better handling (or rather handling at all) for worlds with multiple good starting locations. (Not really sure how this last point can be handled most cleanly from the perspective of the user.) Interrested in feedback as to the usefulness of such a template.. --[[User:Gauteamus|Gauteamus]] 18:35, 17 December 2007 (EST)
::Looks nice and pretty functional. As to additional sites, would it be possible to use templates within templates? Specifically, reproducing the current template for the site portion multiple times within it's own set of show/hide areas for each site. Just an idea on that coming from someone that doesn't know squat about advanced wiki-ing. Unless empty entries break the template, should they need handling at all? (since I read somewhere that this wiki doesn't do ifs. Great Work so far! --[[User:n9103|n9103]] 19:45, 17 Dec 2007 (PST)

== Clean up? ==
It was asked why I deleted a seed earlier, and I may just go back and edit it so that it mentions that I tested the seed on two different machines and got vastly different results on the seed than the original seed poster did (see history for seed number). Also, what is your guy's opinions on deleting/redoing entries without maps/pictures or without any major sites of interest? Example: Seed 0 mentions a spot to start at a terrifying volcano but you cannot even embark there.

PS - I'm going to move seeds according to quick creation time (low rejects) and features if possible.

Also, added a nice find to the pre-generated world's list.

: Well I asked you why you deleted the seed I put back up, if it really doesn't work on other computers then I have no problem taking it down, but I've had no trouble regenerating it and I've had no problem generating other people's seeds. Something you need to do though is make sure you don't alter the settings at all. If there are issues where it only works on certain computers, that's interesting in and of itself, but I haven't seen any evidence of that myself so far. I should add, I do support cleaning up, the page is a mess beyond belief, and I agree some of the seeds are amazingly stupid. [[User:Qalnor|Qalnor]] 18:16, 10 December 2007 (EST)
:: If it works on your computer under repeatable circumstances, leave it up but have a warning tag of some sort :) We could use good seeds. When I have time I will be purging some of the more useless seeds and attempting to clean up here and there. Maybe have some information about your system info/processor/windows or linux? We don't know how these things sometimes affects seed generation. Don't feel bad, the seed I just posted I found out has variable flux/farmable land/sand based on which computers you generated from - and deleting the seed was just jumping the gun on my part.--[[User:KaelGotRice|KaelGotRice]] 19:15, 10 December 2007 (EST)

I'll try to find that at some point to see if there were any relevant details. [[User:Qalnor|Qalnor]] 14:13, 11 December 2007 (EST)

===Removal of older pre-generated worlds===
[[User:N9103]] and [[User:Fedor]] had a bit of a back and forth as to cleaning up older PreGen (Pre-generated) worlds. 
Fedor brought up that some of the changes in map generation since then are for the better, and how most people would probably expect the most recent generation rules to be in effect. 
Edward brought up how the actual world had no changes and were still perfectly usable. 
Fedor brought up that many minerals and gems were typically missing in maps generated in 33e and earlier. Edward agrees on this point. 
Edward and Fedor came to the agreement that it should be a community decision as to whether older (33e&f) PreGens should be left on the wiki. 

Please leave your opinion for this decision, along with any suggestions!

:Leave them on the page with a note that the rock-layer-generating code changed, so the same worlds generated under the current version would have different mineral abundances. If they were incompatible or somehow vastly inferior, then I'd agree with their removal, but having different minerals strikes me as quite minor.--[[User:Maximus|Maximus]] 03:57, 21 January 2008 (EST)

:For the downloadable worlds leave them as is, or update descriptions if anything actually changes. Although I thought that the downloadable ones would fixed at that point. As for the seeds I'd either leave them there if they are still good, or possible archive them to a pregenerated worlds/version page if we get too many. --[[User:Shades|Shades]] 06:24, 21 January 2008 (EST)

:Remove, users can check the history of the page if they want the older stuff. --[[User:Jackard|Jackard]] 06:28, 21 January 2008 (EST)

:They could be moved to the seed pages for older versions. A lot of the older maps have completely different features(magma, hidden fun stuff, underground lakes) than advertised when played on 38c. --[[User:Doniazade|Doniazade]] 09:49, 11 May 2008 (EDT)

== Logging sites ==
I like the idea of logging specific sites to seeds, but how is the best way we can organize this? for a good location explaination you probably need a picture. But if we add a lot of pictures to each seed we get a large cluttered page. What shall we do? Add subpages for specific seeds? Try to think of a generic way to log nice sites (for example: Seed: 12323241 coords:12,13 has: ruins, vent, pit, trees, iron , gold, undead elephants of death, more eagels than the US has fighter planes, etc). (Is it possible to determine the coords of a site on the world map?)

And also, I think it is possible to create non number seeds. I'm going to test this.
--[[User:Soyweiser|Soyweiser]] 08:34, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
: No for non numbers. --[[User:Soyweiser|Soyweiser]] 09:10, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

The forum had a good suggestion. Lets store all the seeds that reject few regions while you create them. (Or at least reject as few regions as possible). The first one with the vulcano in the woods rejects 9 regions. The seed 2 gives a world after 3 rejects according to the forum. http://www.bay12games.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=2&t=001234 --[[User:Soyweiser|Soyweiser]] 09:10, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

This thread should be interesting. There's even a world with zero rejects.

Does anybody know how to link to a specific post of the forum? [[User:Death Dragon|Death Dragon]] 12:38, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
:As far as I know, there isn't a way. This version of the bulletin board code does not place "name" links within the generated forum thread tables as some others do, so no appending of a "#name" to the URL can possibly scroll the browser directly to the post. The best we can do is link to the correct page of the thread and rely on the reader to scroll to the correct post him/herself. --[[User:Alfador|Alfador]] 12:55, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

== Coordinates ==

This was mentioned briefly on the forum, but we should make some rules for finding specific locations on the map,
As in there is a magma vent in a tile with no volcano near at this position
The question is whether or not to use coordinates that refer to the map you get when you export your map (the big one), or to refer to coordinates in the 3 sections thats show up when you are selecting were to embark to. I'm actually not positive, they match up.
I'm pretty sure the map you get from exporting is 257x308, and I'm not 100% on this, but I think the middle map of the embark mode is exactly the same, I just looked through it, and it seems this way, but I thought (and maybe this was a remnant from 32a) that it didn't if someone else can confirm or deny it that'd be nice.

Anyhow I propose using that middle map as the basis of coordinates: we use the most general map (which is 15x16) and follow it by actual map position, and lastly where in the local map it is. also I propose using what tile it is to define it on each map as well.

here's an example (which you can verify using [SEED:2260691361])

General: (yellow n) 
14 Lat, and 2 lon 
Coordinates: (yellow i) 
220 lat, and 33 lon 
Location: (green i)-(green i) 
1-3 lat, and 5-7 lon 

You have here a elf forest retreat.
 
--[[User:Bevilr|Bevilr]] 22:03, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

====Can't use the middle map sorry====
It's always centered on the cursor. Also the large exported map - it may be bugged presently as it seems possible to find regions that are off the edge of what's exported. What would be possible would be to count the steps past where the position on the world (right-most) map changed, this seems to happen every 16 X or Y steps. Suggest indexing from the bottom left (top right if negative values used).
[[User:Djp|Djp]] 01:10, 22 November 2007 (EST)

:Use the world map to see where the approximate location is on the full map and the middle map for landmarks in that vicinity to figure out where the exact site is.--[[User:Maximus|Maximus]] 00:45, 23 November 2007 (EST)

== Individual entries ==

I like the way #3089130238 laid out the information for that seed. We could definitely use a standard layout for this page. Is there anything else we should be including for each seed, besides the number of map rejections?--[[User:Xazak|Xazak]] 19:05, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
:I definitely agree with this, and would love to see some sort of template, for (A) each world, and (B) sites of interest in each world--[[User:Bevilr|Bevilr]] 22:06, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
::A layout would be good, but keep in mind that the required bits should be accessible from either the exportable world map or fortress mode site selection. Otherwise, it could become an ungodly hassle to fill out the form and then there'd be no more additions. --[[User:BDR|BDR]] 07:22, 4 November 2007 (EST)

I think we should try to better organize the seeds, into a table or such, something like [[User:Valdemar/Seeds|this]]. It would really help to see all of the seeds at a glance.

==Multiple Continents and STUFF!==
Just poking around here. Has anyone seen/generated a world with multiple continents? I've seen plenty of Island, but there's always only one continent and all the "oceans" look more like oversized lakes. Could someone post a world with multiple coninents and if possible realistic oceans? Oh, and has anyone noticed that the polar icecaps are more like large tundras rather than, well, large glaciers... My worlds usually end up so warm, I wonder if the dwarfs have a problem with global warming. [[User:Noctis|Noctis]] 15:40, 28 December 2007 (EST)

:Depending on your definition of continent, I've gotten two separate land masses that weren't connected. But considering the scale of the DF Worlds, it's not surprising there aren't really convincing oceans. If you assume that each tile is about 1m², (pretty reasonable) then each DF world is only 38,654 km² (14,924mi²) in total surface area. Considering that the Land Surface Area of the Earth is oh, around 4,000 Times larger, and that's not even counting the water area... So yea, a world with a real ocean would be sorta like playing on the corner of a volcanic island. :P --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 19:32, 28 December 2007 (EST)

::Not to be rude, but I think you made a error in your calculations. Please do consider that Europe alone is more than ten million square kilometers. I think you made a error when you considered "dwarf" squares per embark squares per world squares. Also, considering that the world's biggest mountain is 8848m high and the highest DF mountains are 250 Z-levels high(if I remember correctly), one DF Z-level must be more than 35m. Even when the highest DF mountain would be 5000m, a Z-level should be 20m. At the same time one average story of a building is ca 4m and putting this into z-levels gives us a maximum mountain size of 1000m. Small, huh? Oh, don't forget that that is the height from the lowest bottom of an "ocean", meaning that the real values are even more ridiculous. I can't imagine a ocean in the DF world in your scale at all. Speaking of oceans, I just generated a world with an ridiculous ocean. It's less than 15x15 in size and doesn't even show up on the world map in embark screen. Then there's the stone layers. In a 40000km² area there should be no more than a handful of stone layers, but in a DF world there's hundreds!
::This is sounding very DF-critical, but I really love this game. It's just that that the world generation can be very weird. Oh! And to make this post even longer for kicks. I just generated a world where three oceans divide the world into two, what I would call, continents, but because of two small land bridges they are counted as one. Compare with N. + S. America and Europe + Asia + Africa. Nuff...

:::Why should DF world relate directly to the real world? Who says that DF mountains would even be as tall as Earth's? You made quite a few derivative calculations on a rather large assumption, IMO. All I've been trying to establish is that there really isn't a point to trying to compare the DF World to the real one. If you're trying to counter that argument, I'm really unsure what the point of most of your comments were. If you're trying to confirm it, then your comments still don't make much sense.

== Organization proposal ==

I propose to place all world seeds on subpages for their corresponding version and transcluding the page with the current world seeds onto the main pregenerated worlds page.
The idea would end up something like so:

''Pregenerated worlds''

<nowiki>==Seeds==</nowiki>

<nowiki>{{:Pregenerated worlds/0.27.173.38a}}</nowiki>

''Pregenerated worlds/0.27.173.38a''

(list of seeds and descriptions)

If we do it this way there won't be a need to move large blocks of text around when the version change kills seed compatibility; instead we can change which of the pages are transcluded onto the main seed page. Any thoughts? I will probably implement this tomorrow if noone objects. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 18:57, 6 February 2008 (EST)

== [[Pregenerated_worlds#Near_perfect_4X5]] - seed #: 1038428822 ==

Has anyone managed to generated the world shown in the screenshot? I generated [SEED:1038428822] with an unmodified df_27_173_38a and the world is nothing like what's displayed in the screenshot. Possibly the original poster has modified raw files that caused it to be different? There isn't much said about modified raws changing the world generated. We probably should add something about that and ask people who have modified raws to post them alongside their seeds. Does anyone have much info regarding which raws can potentially effect worldgen? Also has anyone actually ever tested the fact that different names (non-random) or OSes cause different worlds to be generated or is that just something someone put there to try and explain why there are sometimes different worlds generated? I haven't tested either yet but both sound like strange things to cause a different world to me. --[[User:Someone(r)(c)(tm)|Someone(r)(c)(tm)]] 15:04, 14 February 2008 (EST)

:The Toady One himself has stated in his changelogs that OS and World name don't affect world gen. As for raws, I would assume *ANY* change to them would change the generation. Personally, I think that if you're using a mod, then you forfeit your world-posting privileges, since this is by far aimed at unmodded DF. Posting in a subpage of the mod itself would be different of course. JM2¢. --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 03:31, 15 February 2008 (EST)
::Found this in the changelogs "12/19/2007: <snip> * made world generation results independent of custom name" so I'm removing the world name thing. I'm thinking of removing the OS thing as well unless someone really is sure it effects. Basically what you want to test is making the same seed using two operating systems with completely default DFs of the same version (I suggest redownloading from the site on both OSes to be sure because you might have modified the raws and forgotten or something) but I am some what doubtful that OS has any effect. I actually agree with Edward about people using mods not posting worlds but I was thinking it was possibly a bit extreme so didn't suggest it myself. Unless anyone has any objections or other suggestions perhaps we should implement it? Although probably any change to the raws effects worldgen in some way it would appear that since terrain seems to be generated first not all modifications result in completely different worlds. Since most of the seeds given here are aimed at good starting locations in the form of terrain features it's possible that some modifications to the raws won't effect it enough to change the terrain generated. Of course a 'no mods at all' policy would make things a lot simpler than a 'some mods are allowed' policy. --[[User:Someone(r)(c)(tm)|Someone(r)(c)(tm)]] 07:26, 15 February 2008 (EST)

It still needs alot of tuning (especially conditional #if for when entries are left open), as well as better handling (or rather handling at all) for worlds with multiple good starting locations. (Not really sure how this last point can be handled most cleanly from the perspective of the user.) Interrested in feedback as to the usefulness of such a template.. --[[User:Gauteamus|Gauteamus]] 18:35, 17 December 2007 (EST)
::Looks nice and pretty functional. As to additional sites, would it be possible to use templates within templates? Specifically, reproducing the current template for the site portion multiple times within it's own set of show/hide areas for each site. Just an idea on that coming from someone that doesn't know squat about advanced wiki-ing. Unless empty entries break the template, should they need handling at all? (since I read somewhere that this wiki doesn't do ifs. Great Work so far! --[[User:n9103|n9103]] 19:45, 17 Dec 2007 (PST)

== Clean up? ==
It was asked why I deleted a seed earlier, and I may just go back and edit it so that it mentions that I tested the seed on two different machines and got vastly different results on the seed than the original seed poster did (see history for seed number). Also, what is your guy's opinions on deleting/redoing entries without maps/pictures or without any major sites of interest? Example: Seed 0 mentions a spot to start at a terrifying volcano but you cannot even embark there.

PS - I'm going to move seeds according to quick creation time (low rejects) and features if possible.

Also, added a nice find to the pre-generated world's list.

:::I'll just nuke the useless volcano in the tundra image for now as this is fairly common and taking up room - and you cannot embark anywhere near there.

: Well I asked you why you deleted the seed I put back up, if it really doesn't work on other computers then I have no problem taking it down, but I've had no trouble regenerating it and I've had no problem generating other people's seeds. Something you need to do though is make sure you don't alter the settings at all. If there are issues where it only works on certain computers, that's interesting in and of itself, but I haven't seen any evidence of that myself so far. I should add, I do support cleaning up, the page is a mess beyond belief, and I agree some of the seeds are amazingly stupid. [[User:Qalnor|Qalnor]] 18:16, 10 December 2007 (EST)
:: If it works on your computer under repeatable circumstances, leave it up but have a warning tag of some sort :) We could use good seeds.

===Removal of older pre-generated worlds===
[[User:N9103]] and [[User:Fedor]] had a bit of a back and forth as to cleaning up older PreGen (Pre-generated) worlds. 
Fedor brought up that some of the changes in map generation since then are for the better, and how most people would probably expect the most recent generation rules to be in effect. 
Edward brought up how the actual world had no changes and were still perfectly usable. 
Fedor brought up that many minerals and gems were typically missing in maps generated in 33e and earlier. Edward agrees on this point. 
Edward and Fedor came to the agreement that it should be a community decision as to whether older (33e&f) PreGens should be left on the wiki. 

Please leave your opinion for this decision, along with any suggestions!

:Leave them on the page with a note that the rock-layer-generating code changed, so the same worlds generated under the current version would have different mineral abundances. If they were incompatible or somehow vastly inferior, then I'd agree with their removal, but having different minerals strikes me as quite minor.--[[User:Maximus|Maximus]] 03:57, 21 January 2008 (EST)

:For the downloadable worlds leave them as is, or update descriptions if anything actually changes. Although I thought that the downloadable ones would fixed at that point. As for the seeds I'd either leave them there if they are still good, or possible archive them to a pregenerated worlds/version page if we get too many. --[[User:Shades|Shades]] 06:24, 21 January 2008 (EST)

:Remove, users can check the history of the page if they want the older stuff. --[[User:Jackard|Jackard]] 06:28, 21 January 2008 (EST)

:They could be moved to the seed pages for older versions. A lot of the older maps have completely different features(magma, hidden fun stuff, underground lakes) than advertised when played on 38c. --[[User:Doniazade|Doniazade]] 09:49, 11 May 2008 (EDT)

== Logging sites ==
I like the idea of logging specific sites to seeds, but how is the best way we can organize this? for a good location explaination you probably need a picture. But if we add a lot of pictures to each seed we get a large cluttered page. What shall we do? Add subpages for specific seeds? Try to think of a generic way to log nice sites (for example: Seed: 12323241 coords:12,13 has: ruins, vent, pit, trees, iron , gold, undead elephants of death, more eagels than the US has fighter planes, etc). (Is it possible to determine the coords of a site on the world map?)

And also, I think it is possible to create non number seeds. I'm going to test this.
--[[User:Soyweiser|Soyweiser]] 08:34, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
: No for non numbers. --[[User:Soyweiser|Soyweiser]] 09:10, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

The forum had a good suggestion. Lets store all the seeds that reject few regions while you create them. (Or at least reject as few regions as possible). The first one with the vulcano in the woods rejects 9 regions. The seed 2 gives a world after 3 rejects according to the forum. http://www.bay12games.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=2&t=001234 --[[User:Soyweiser|Soyweiser]] 09:10, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

:As far as I know, there isn't a way. This version of the bulletin board code does not place "name" links within the generated forum thread tables as some others do, so no appending of a "#name" to the URL can possibly scroll the browser directly to the post. The best we can do is link to the correct page of the thread and rely on the reader to scroll to the correct post him/herself. --[[User:Alfador|Alfador]] 12:55, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

== Coordinates ==

This was mentioned briefly on the forum, but we should make some rules for finding specific locations on the map,
As in there is a magma vent in a tile with no volcano near at this position
The question is whether or not to use coordinates that refer to the map you get when you export your map (the big one), or to refer to coordinates in the 3 sections thats show up when you are selecting were to embark to. I'm actually not positive, they match up.
I'm pretty sure the map you get from exporting is 257x308, and I'm not 100% on this, but I think the middle map of the embark mode is exactly the same, I just looked through it, and it seems this way, but I thought (and maybe this was a remnant from 32a) that it didn't if someone else can confirm or deny it that'd be nice.

Anyhow I propose using that middle map as the basis of coordinates: we use the most general map (which is 15x16) and follow it by actual map position, and lastly where in the local map it is. also I propose using what tile it is to define it on each map as well.

here's an example (which you can verify using [SEED:2260691361])

General: (yellow n) 
14 Lat, and 2 lon 
Coordinates: (yellow i) 
220 lat, and 33 lon 
Location: (green i)-(green i) 
1-3 lat, and 5-7 lon 

You have here a elf forest retreat.
 
--[[User:Bevilr|Bevilr]] 22:03, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

====Can't use the middle map sorry====
It's always centered on the cursor. Also the large exported map - it may be bugged presently as it seems possible to find regions that are off the edge of what's exported. What would be possible would be to count the steps past where the position on the world (right-most) map changed, this seems to happen every 16 X or Y steps. Suggest indexing from the bottom left (top right if negative values used).
[[User:Djp|Djp]] 01:10, 22 November 2007 (EST)

:Use the world map to see where the approximate location is on the full map and the middle map for landmarks in that vicinity to figure out where the exact site is.--[[User:Maximus|Maximus]] 00:45, 23 November 2007 (EST)

==Multiple Continents and STUFF!==
Just poking around here. Has anyone seen/generated a world with multiple continents? I've seen plenty of Island, but there's always only one continent and all the "oceans" look more like oversized lakes. Could someone post a world with multiple coninents and if possible realistic oceans? Oh, and has anyone noticed that the polar icecaps are more like large tundras rather than, well, large glaciers... My worlds usually end up so warm, I wonder if the dwarfs have a problem with global warming. [[User:Noctis|Noctis]] 15:40, 28 December 2007 (EST)

:Depending on your definition of continent, I've gotten two separate land masses that weren't connected. But considering the scale of the DF Worlds, it's not surprising there aren't really convincing oceans. If you assume that each tile is about 1m², (pretty reasonable) then each DF world is only 38,654 km² (14,924mi²) in total surface area. Considering that the Land Surface Area of the Earth is oh, around 4,000 Times larger, and that's not even counting the water area... So yea, a world with a real ocean would be sorta like playing on the corner of a volcanic island. :P --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 19:32, 28 December 2007 (EST)

::Not to be rude, but I think you made a error in your calculations. Please do consider that Europe alone is more than ten million square kilometers. I think you made a error when you considered "dwarf" squares per embark squares per world squares. Also, considering that the world's biggest mountain is 8848m high and the highest DF mountains are 250 Z-levels high(if I remember correctly), one DF Z-level must be more than 35m. Even when the highest DF mountain would be 5000m, a Z-level should be 20m. At the same time one average story of a building is ca 4m and putting this into z-levels gives us a maximum mountain size of 1000m. Small, huh? Oh, don't forget that that is the height from the lowest bottom of an "ocean", meaning that the real values are even more ridiculous. I can't imagine a ocean in the DF world in your scale at all. Speaking of oceans, I just generated a world with an ridiculous ocean. It's less than 15x15 in size and doesn't even show up on the world map in embark screen. Then there's the stone layers. In a 40000km² area there should be no more than a handful of stone layers, but in a DF world there's hundreds!
::This is sounding very DF-critical, but I really love this game. It's just that that the world generation can be very weird. Oh! And to make this post even longer for kicks. I just generated a world where three oceans divide the world into two, what I would call, continents, but because of two small land bridges they are counted as one. Compare with N. + S. America and Europe + Asia + Africa. Nuff...

== Organization proposal ==

I propose to place all world seeds on subpages for their corresponding version and transcluding the page with the current world seeds onto the main pregenerated worlds page.
The idea would end up something like so:

''Pregenerated worlds''

<nowiki>{{:Pregenerated worlds/0.27.173.38a}}</nowiki>

''Pregenerated worlds/0.27.173.38a''

(list of seeds and descriptions)

If we do it this way there won't be a need to move large blocks of text around when the version change kills seed compatibility; instead we can change which of the pages are transcluded onto the main seed page. Any thoughts? I will probably implement this tomorrow if noone objects. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 18:57, 6 February 2008 (EST)

Has anyone managed to generated the world shown in the screenshot? I generated [SEED:1038428822] with an unmodified df_27_173_38a and the world is nothing like what's displayed in the screenshot. Possibly the original poster has modified raw files that caused it to be different? There isn't much said about modified raws changing the world generated. We probably should add something about that and ask people who have modified raws to post them alongside their seeds. Does anyone have much info regarding which raws can potentially effect worldgen? Also has anyone actually ever tested the fact that different names (non-random) or OSes cause different worlds to be generated or is that just something someone put there to try and explain why there are sometimes different worlds generated? I haven't tested either yet but both sound like strange things to cause a different world to me. --[[User:Someone(r)(c)(tm)|Someone(r)(c)(tm)]] 15:04, 14 February 2008 (EST)

:The Toady One himself has stated in his changelogs that OS and World name don't affect world gen. As for raws, I would assume *ANY* change to them would change the generation.

Posting in a subpage of the mod itself would be different of course. JM2¢. --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 03:31, 15 February 2008 (EST)
::Found this in the changelogs "12/19/2007: <snip> * made world generation results independent of custom name" so I'm removing the world name thing. I'm thinking of removing the OS thing as well unless someone really is sure it effects. Basically what you want to test is making the same seed using two operating systems with completely default DFs of the same version (I suggest redownloading from the site on both OSes to be sure because you might have modified the raws and forgotten or something) but I am some what doubtful that OS has any effect. I actually agree with Edward about people using mods not posting worlds but I was thinking it was possibly a bit extreme so didn't suggest it myself. Unless anyone has any objections or other suggestions perhaps we should implement it? Although probably any change to the raws effects worldgen in some way it would appear that since terrain seems to be generated first not all modifications result in completely different worlds. Since most of the seeds given here are aimed at good starting locations in the form of terrain features it's possible that some modifications to the raws won't effect it enough to change the terrain generated. Of course a 'no mods at all' policy would make things a lot simpler than a 'some mods are allowed' policy. --[[User:Someone(r)(c)(tm)|Someone(r)(c)(tm)]] 07:26, 15 February 2008 (EST)

40d:Pregenerated worlds

2008-07-22T14:42:43Z

Zwergner:

'''Pregenerated worlds''' are worlds that have been created and uploaded for use by others, so they may skip world generation, and are independent of version{{v|0.27.169.33g}}. '''Seeds''' are numbers that tell the world generator which world to create. These are usually given for particularly good [[location]]s, or for quick generating time. Below is a list of worlds and seeds that users have made, along with any interesting locations. Feel free to share and add to the list.

== World generation changes ==

Versions 0.27.169.33f and 0.27.169.33g changed the way world generation works slightly, so seeds from earlier versions will generate different worlds; these are archived at [[Seed archive]]. Random and custom names do not affect world generation. However, modifications to your raw files before world generation could cause a different world to be generated.

Version 0.23.173.38a (with the army arc work) has changed world generation again, so that seeds from earlier versions do not create the same worlds.

Version 0.23.176.38a has changed world generation (cave changes) once again.

Version 0.23.176.38b seems to have changed, possibly due to the new parameter options.

== Downloadable worlds ==

Downloadable worlds are worlds which have been generated and then compressed into a single archive file for sharing over the internet. Download the file then extract the folder inside the archive into your /data/save folder in order to use it.

=== Zaludoram, The Future World ===

'''[http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=49 Download it here]''' 
Seed: 4252958254 {{v|0.27.176.38c}} (2 rejects) 
World size: 65x65 (Small) 
Made in Dwarf Fortress v0.27.176.38c, created with a Core 2 Duo processor in Windows XP. Found using the wonderful [[Utilities#Regional_Prospector|Regional Prospector]].

[[Image:Zaludoram-location.png|thumb|500px]]

This is a loaded 4x7 fortress location with plenty of every major resource. Location has fairly mild cliffs, and the surroundings are Warm and Untamed Wilds. 
While sufficient trees are available (a few hundred), you can expand north to make it a 5x7 area with more trees than you should ever need. There is unfortunately no extra obsidian beyond that surrounding the magma.

* '''Adamantine''': just southeast of the middle.
* '''Magma''': underground magma pool, located on layers 150-147 in the southwest corner.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.
* '''Trees''': A few hundred of them.
* '''Sand''': Plenty of white sand.
* '''Iron''': Plenty of magnetite patches along with some hematite and limonite veins.
* '''Flux''': Plenty of chalk.
* '''Fuel''': Many veins of bituminous coal and lignite.
* '''Bauxite''': Many (20+) patches all over the place.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

World size: 17x17 (Pocket) 

[[Image:Ew%C3%A8lina_Location_Screen.PNG|thumb|500px]]

This is a 2x3 fortress location with plenty of every major resource, located in a pocket world. It contains numerous lakes and has no cliffs. 

* '''Adamantine''': Northwest under the rock which extrudes to the surface.
* '''Magma''': Volcano in the southeast corner.
* '''Brook''': A small curve of it in the northeast corner.
* '''Trees''': All over the place. If you desire more you can easily expand westwards to make a 3x3 location.

This is a loaded 3x6 location with basically every major resource. No chasm, cliffs are no taller than 2, surroundings are Temperate and Mirthful. 
If you don't need a river, you can trim it to 3x5 by taking off the bottom edge and still get everything else.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.

This is a 4x3 location with most major resources. No chasm, cliffs are very tall (6-9), surroundings are Scorching and Calm. There is a small spot of aquifer, just enough to be potentially useful while still out of the way. 
If you need a river, you can expand the selection north to include some river fingers and possibly west to also include a stretch of normal river. This will likely include more aquifer though.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': only if you expand the area slightly.
* '''Aquifer''': There's a tiny area of it towards the top left on a few levels.

This is a nice 3x3 (or potentially 2x2) location with almost all major resources. No chasm or sand available, cliffs are no higher than 1 (!), surroundings are Scorching and Untamed Wilds. The brook has a semi-waterfall where it drops 1 Z-level, causing a somewhat odd scene. 
If you don't need a river or as many trees, you could actually make it a 2x2 area instead with all other resources by cutting off the bottom and right edges.

* '''Adamantine''': in the middle.
* '''Magma''': Upper left corner, the top is fully open to the ground.
* '''River''': Yes, with a waterfall.
* '''Trees''': Limited, but enough to make do.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Plenty.
* '''Flux''': More chalk than you could ever need.
* '''Fuel''': Plenty.
* '''Bauxite''': Some, check bottom middle of map one level below the lone hill.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.
 
[[Image:Emeecamo_Ametha_location2.png|thumb|500px]]

This is another nice location in this world. It is 5x3 with almost all major resources. No chasm, bauxite, or sand available. Cliffs progress up a few levels from left to right, surroundings are Warm and Calm. The magma vent is underground but only 2 levels deep. 
There is so much iron here (many many magnetite clusters) that you'll practically get sick of it. There seem to be more diamonds scattered around here than normal as well.

* '''Adamantine''': upper right corner.
* '''Magma''': lower right corner, underground. Only on levels 148-149, so unfortunately very shallow.
* '''River''': Yes, a small river bend in the upper left corner.
* '''Trees''': Not overabundant, but not scarce either.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Massive amounts; good luck making a dent in it.
* '''Flux''': Take your pick between dolomite and chalk, tons of each.
* '''Fuel''': Limited amounts of lignite, mostly in the upper levels on the left side.
* '''Obsidian''': Plenty of it in the upper left corner at the higher z-levels.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

== Seeds ==
'''{{edit|{{PAGENAME}}/{{current/version}}|Click here to add a seed!}}'''
Seeded worlds are special "codes" which tell the game's pseudo-random number generator (a sophisticated mathematical function which produces numbers that seem random) where to begin generating a world. Because the random number generator is actually just a mathematical function and thus always produces the same result when given a certain input, you can "seed" the generator to produce an entire series of random numbers on another computer that are exactly the same as they were originally produced on the first computer.

However modifications to your raw files can affect worldgen so please state what mods you are using if you post a seed with a non default DF.

To use a seeded world, select ''Create a New World'' during the main menu, then hit {{key|s}} to specify a seed. Type in the seed and hit {{key|Enter}}, then hit {{key|Enter}} one more time to begin generation. It will still take the normal amount of time to generate the world, and you will still have rejects before the world is produced.

Mineral content is determined at the time it is allocated, (essentially when you dig near it). Accordingly the map seed determines the layers and therefore the probability of certain rocks/ores, but the ore veins themselves will vary.

A further warning: there may be other things that affect world generation, such as your operating system. If you generate a world different from one described here, with exactly the same seed, please mention it with the relevant details (operating system including any service packs, processor type, and game version) on the [[Talk:Pregenerated worlds|talk page]].

Here are seeds generated in older versions. They may not generate the same world if you are using '''v{{current/version}}''':
*[[Seed archive]] (pre 0.27.173.38a)
*[[Pregenerated worlds/0.27.173.38a|v0.27.173.38a]]

== World Generation Parameter Sets ==
With the release of 0.27.176.39a, ''Design New World With Paramaters'' gained a slew of new features. Almost any parameter that would be associated with a cworld can now be given start values, end values, limits, and more. Players can create their own parameter sets to generate worlds with specific features.

Parameter sets are stored in ''world_gen.txt'' in the ''\data\init'' folder. You can copy and paste other player's sets of parameters into your ''world_gen.txt'' to use their parameter sets.

One place to find parameter sets for world generation is the [http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=20638.0 Worldgen cookbook] thread on the official forums.

40d:Pregenerated worlds

2008-07-22T14:42:23Z

Zwergner:

'''Pregenerated worlds''' are worlds that have been created and uploaded for use by others, so they may skip world generation, and are independent of version{{v|0.27.169.33g}}. '''Seeds''' are numbers that tell the world generator which world to create. These are usually given for particularly good [[location]]s, or for quick generating time. Below is a list of worlds and seeds that users have made, along with any interesting locations. Feel free to share and add to the list.

== World generation changes ==

Versions 0.27.169.33f and 0.27.169.33g changed the way world generation works slightly, so seeds from earlier versions will generate different worlds; these are archived at [[Seed archive]]. Random and custom names do not affect world generation. However, modifications to your raw files before world generation could cause a different world to be generated.

Version 0.23.173.38a (with the army arc work) has changed world generation again, so that seeds from earlier versions do not create the same worlds.

Version 0.23.176.38a has changed world generation (cave changes) once again.

Version 0.23.176.38b seems to have changed, possibly due to the new parameter options.

== Downloadable worlds ==

Downloadable worlds are worlds which have been generated and then compressed into a single archive file for sharing over the internet. Download the file then extract the folder inside the archive into your /data/save folder in order to use it.

This is a loaded 3x6 location with basically every major resource. No chasm, cliffs are no taller than 2, surroundings are Temperate and Mirthful. 
If you don't need a river, you can trim it to 3x5 by taking off the bottom edge and still get everything else.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': a small curve of it in the lower right corner.
* '''Trees''': More than you'll ever use.
* '''Sand''': Yep.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Magnetite patches near the surface, along with an occasional hematite and limonite vein.
* '''Flux''': More than you'll ever use.
* '''Fuel''': Plenty.
* '''Bauxite''': Several patches near the magma.
* '''Obsidian''': Available on the left side.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

This is a 4x3 location with most major resources. No chasm, cliffs are very tall (6-9), surroundings are Scorching and Calm. There is a small spot of aquifer, just enough to be potentially useful while still out of the way. 
If you need a river, you can expand the selection north to include some river fingers and possibly west to also include a stretch of normal river. This will likely include more aquifer though.

* '''Adamantine''': towards the bottom left.
* '''Magma''': underground, located on layers 140-143.
* '''River''': only if you expand the area slightly.
* '''Aquifer''': There's a tiny area of it towards the top left on a few levels.
* '''Trees''': Yep.
* '''Sand''': Yep.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Yes, towards the top and middle.
* '''Flux''': Yep.
* '''Fuel''': Yep.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

This is a nice 3x3 (or potentially 2x2) location with almost all major resources. No chasm or sand available, cliffs are no higher than 1 (!), surroundings are Scorching and Untamed Wilds. The brook has a semi-waterfall where it drops 1 Z-level, causing a somewhat odd scene. 
If you don't need a river or as many trees, you could actually make it a 2x2 area instead with all other resources by cutting off the bottom and right edges.

* '''Adamantine''': in the middle.
* '''Magma''': Upper left corner, the top is fully open to the ground.
* '''River''': Yes, with a waterfall.
* '''Trees''': Limited, but enough to make do.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Plenty.
* '''Flux''': More chalk than you could ever need.
* '''Fuel''': Plenty.
* '''Bauxite''': Some, check bottom middle of map one level below the lone hill.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

This is another nice location in this world. It is 5x3 with almost all major resources. No chasm, bauxite, or sand available. Cliffs progress up a few levels from left to right, surroundings are Warm and Calm. The magma vent is underground but only 2 levels deep. 
There is so much iron here (many many magnetite clusters) that you'll practically get sick of it. There seem to be more diamonds scattered around here than normal as well.

* '''Adamantine''': upper right corner.
* '''Magma''': lower right corner, underground. Only on levels 148-149, so unfortunately very shallow.
* '''River''': Yes, a small river bend in the upper left corner.
* '''Trees''': Not overabundant, but not scarce either.
* '''Soil''': Yep.
* '''Iron''': Massive amounts; good luck making a dent in it.
* '''Flux''': Take your pick between dolomite and chalk, tons of each.
* '''Fuel''': Limited amounts of lignite, mostly in the upper levels on the left side.
* '''Obsidian''': Plenty of it in the upper left corner at the higher z-levels.

* '''Neighboring Civs''': All.

== Seeds ==
'''{{edit|{{PAGENAME}}/{{current/version}}|Click here to add a seed!}}'''
Seeded worlds are special "codes" which tell the game's pseudo-random number generator (a sophisticated mathematical function which produces numbers that seem random) where to begin generating a world. Because the random number generator is actually just a mathematical function and thus always produces the same result when given a certain input, you can "seed" the generator to produce an entire series of random numbers on another computer that are exactly the same as they were originally produced on the first computer.

However modifications to your raw files can affect worldgen so please state what mods you are using if you post a seed with a non default DF.

To use a seeded world, select ''Create a New World'' during the main menu, then hit {{key|s}} to specify a seed. Type in the seed and hit {{key|Enter}}, then hit {{key|Enter}} one more time to begin generation. It will still take the normal amount of time to generate the world, and you will still have rejects before the world is produced.

Mineral content is determined at the time it is allocated, (essentially when you dig near it). Accordingly the map seed determines the layers and therefore the probability of certain rocks/ores, but the ore veins themselves will vary.

A further warning: there may be other things that affect world generation, such as your operating system. If you generate a world different from one described here, with exactly the same seed, please mention it with the relevant details (operating system including any service packs, processor type, and game version) on the [[Talk:Pregenerated worlds|talk page]].

Here are seeds generated in older versions. They may not generate the same world if you are using '''v{{current/version}}''':
*[[Seed archive]] (pre 0.27.173.38a)
*[[Pregenerated worlds/0.27.173.38a|v0.27.173.38a]]

The following seeds were generated with version '''{{current/version}}'''. If you have a seed with a good starting location, feel free to add it.

== World Generation Parameter Sets ==
With the release of 0.27.176.39a, ''Design New World With Paramaters'' gained a slew of new features. Almost any parameter that would be associated with a cworld can now be given start values, end values, limits, and more. Players can create their own parameter sets to generate worlds with specific features.

Parameter sets are stored in '''world_gen.txt'' in the ''\data\init'' folder. You can copy and paste other player's sets of parameters into your ''world_gen.txt''' to use their parameter sets.

One place to find parameter sets for world generation is the [http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=20638.0 Worldgen cookbook] thread on the official forums.
