  1. Are there any stores (shotgun messiah, working stiff, etc...) in the Insane seed Hub city that anyone has found? I just started hitting some of the buildings on the SW side and have only found ruins so far. I've already burned through 100 crossbow bolts and need to return to my main base soon to re-arm. Fining some stocked stores would make this trip worth it.

     

    I have yet to venture over to the main hub at 0,0 but id imagine there are some stores there.

  2. The only big lake I have found is in the north west corner of the map

     

    Is the lake in the burnt forest biome? Im thinking of making a couple hundred glass jars and making a trip up to the lake as the pool in the town im in isnt filling back up. Just want to see if im going to have to endure trekking across a hot biome to get to the lake.

     

    This map is really great, its just a shame there isnt more lakes or rivers through it.

  3. Sorry, I haven't. But I did find an underground bunker in the town. It's pretty easy to find, it's in the southwest portion of the town close to the perimeter. I would give coordinates but Im not on the game right now.

     

    No worries. Still have yet to start another game but when i do i think im gonna try yours out. Finding water is essential though.

  4. Hey guys I found a new seed that's pretty good so far. The seed is "rectum" without the quotations. I spawned I think around 150 N and 1940 W. If you head south from that spot you'll be in a desert. However at 897 N and 1327 W there's a town in the middle of the Snow Biome which is where I'm holding up. It's a pretty good town and since there's snow everywhere you have your own watercourse plus one of the buildings has a flooded basement. Also at 300 N and 193 W there's a MASSIVE hub city, and I mean MASSIVE. I have only explored the perimeter of it but I've found 2 shamway foods, 1 crack a book, and 1 shotgun Messiah, and that's JUST on the perimeter. If you want to know anything else just let me know. Also there's a cave RIGHT next to the town at about 391 N and 1532 S. Haven't explored it yet. Let me know what you guys think.

     

    Im thinking about starting a new multiplayer game to host when friends are online, so if i do i will try this seed out. Sounds good.

     

    Found any other sources of water in biomes besides the snowy area?

  5. Yeah there are several I have ran into, one close to the town I am holding up in.

     

    2399S 2376W to 1282S 3270W

     

    122S 1853W - small desert with two caves.

     

    110S 2135E - is part of the town there, also a snow biome as part of the town so plenty of water close by.

     

    2637N 2271E - not desert but a sandy beach, large body of water, its just east of the town there.

     

    Most of the area I have explored is in the south, lots of plains, burnt land, and forest area. I usually head to the third one I listed and dig sand from that desert, water close by, buildings to loot, forest for trees, started a mine right next to the edge of town. Key thing to remember is the top most layer gives you the most sand, the lower levels give you less, but if you have a good auger you can blow through it pretty fast after you've cleared the wandering z's in the area.

     

    Awesome, thanks again caleb!

     

    Im held up in the 2250N 350E town and would prefer to not have to travel too far to obtain a large amount of sand. Looks like im heading east to the beach after the day 21 horde comes. Need some fresh places to loot anyways :)

     

    Hopefully i can bring home about 10k units or more of sand.

  6. The far distance from the cente of town at 0,0 is 4000, so I am guessing its 4000 in each direction, give a few for the curvature of the circle.

     

    That must have pretained to PC im guessing. Good to know how far out the map stretches though, thanks.

     

    Quick question for you. Have you managed to come across a desert biome on the Insane seed? Im in need of sand for making concrete and havent had much luck sourcing it.

  7. Yeah all random gen maps are huge, with a round border circling them, most likely a percise size but I havent tried to see exactly. There is a small town on the north border, the bunker in it is sitting in the radiation zone, not really a safe town to be in at night lol, I almost died, I was like " oooh another bunker " bam! Health drop, Bam! Health drop, barely got out with a sliver of life only to get chased while trying to heal lol.

     

    I remember reading somewhere that random gen maps stretch out to coordinates 10,000 in each directs from 0,0 but i havent tried to see how far they actually go.

  8. Someone else has to take credit for the seed name, I tried a ton of seed names but this one was a good one, it was originally for the pc, so I wasnt holding my breath on it, but it turned out great.

     

    Been holding off on playing a multiplayer game till they come out with the next patch, seems that the majority of the ugly bugs are happening on mp maps, including the dreaded build envioronment bug. But ya it could be fun :).

     

    For day seven horde (and a couple after) I ran off to a neigboring town, I survived but the buildings havent lol, the day seven horde was by far the worst on the building so far, they managed to make the whole fron side of the building collapse, but I think I may of added a little instability with my addon to the roof. was down deep in a mine on the last one.

     

    One thing I want to do is dig a tunnel system under all the roads in this town and interconnect all the buildings to it, for fast movement through town, but thats still going to be awhile away, I need to get my crafting rooms done, and the sleeping spot as well. Going to do a little vid walkthrough in a couple days to show my friends what I have done so far, I'll post it so you can take a look, plan on a escape tunnel that goes out of town with a minibike in it for a fast get-a-way.

     

    Well im glad you tried it on console.

     

    Still havent left town but i should go collect the air drops littered on the outskirts.

     

    I noticed a few bugs when playing MP with a friend but nothing in SP really. I hope the patch fixes all the major stuff because MP is a lot of fun.

     

    Im close to the bunker with my tunnel so im working my way over to it. Id like to knock the shed down around the entrance and build a small cobblestone fortress on top of the bunker entrance. Likely going to build a farm somewhere and have my tunnel run to it. Im leary on the minibike as ive read about numerous bugs with it. Patch is coming soon though, so those could be fixed as well.

     

    Anyways, back to digging!!

  9. If your going to dig a tunnel to it I suggest you dig one thats deeper then the bunker is, the prefab bunker is good hiding from normal zombies but not blood moon zombies, crouching in the bunker when zombies are passing by makes them not sense you, but if your standing close ones can sense you. This is why I am expanding it, i went a additional 8 blocks down and started building a entry chamber, cant see it too good as I dont have lighting in it yet, from there I am going to be adding at least two more levels below it, each level being 5 blocks high (floor, wall, ceiling, making it a double thickness between levels.

    Edit in: Game settings are all default, except days are 60 minutes, and day light is 18 hours.

     

    Before i dig too much more i should locate the bunker itself and figure out how far away i am with my current hideout. If its too far i can keep my current one for a mine or a second bunker/tunnel system. My luck i will be on the opposite side of town and its going to take me forever. I will likely still connect the two and find the middle point between entrances to dig down deep and create my underground hideout. Right now im just trying to dig down deep enough that im safe come my first blood moon on day 7.

     

    You play on PS4 correct? Maybe sometime we can get together in multiplayer on this wonderful map you created/generated.

  10. Look for a building with a iron fence around the yard it will have a floodd basement that can never be emptied (it always fills back up no matter what you do).

     

    The bunkers - look for a garage with a scrap metal/fence around the back side of it, the fence will be attached to the garage, and a street lamp in the back. The first 3 metal plates inside the garage cover the entrance to the bunker. There is also a vent entrance in the fenced area, it is covered by a scrap metal plate and sealed off with teo iron bars, one at the top and one at the bottom that drops into the kitchen.

     

    The only big lake I have found is in the north west corner of the map, I still havent found any other water source besides the holes in the big city, the houses that have pools in the back yard (redwood fencing around it) and the floodd basement houses. From what I remember exploring each town had a pool house or a flooded basement house, sometims both.

     

    I started another game myself on this map, and took up in a bunker, have been working on expanding the underside of the bunker :).

     

    Some of the bunkers entry doors will respawn if you break them out, replacing the door you may put there. A simple method to get around it being locked is to place the door in the same spot, green box showing on the inside, then lock the door and pin code it. When the original door respawns you will be the owner of it.

     

    Thank you so much for the response caleb68.

     

    I found the house in the Southwest corner with the pool, but have almost emptied it completely. I will search for the flooded basement next.

     

    I recall going through the small garage with the fenced area around it but didnt realize there is a bunker hiding beneath the area. Might have to use my created tunnel/bunker/mine and connect it to the prefab bunker as an emergency exit.

     

    Good to know about the doors. I had a bug in my game with some friends where a hatch i made and upgraded locked on us and nobody could open it. Ive started setting pin code locks on all my items now in hopes that is a workaround until the issue gets patched.

     

    Cheers for the info!

  11. Glad you guys like the seed, happy I found it. Here's a recap of the seed locations I have found as well as which ones have bunkers that I know of

     

    Seed: InsaneHCA14

     

    It has two large city hubs that I know of, and several smaller towns in it, lots of green forest area that supply good game to hunt, sevral deserts that I have come across and a large snow area jusr north east of the main city hub. Here are some of the locations on the map:

     

    Town 130N 2015E

    Town 2250N 350E has bunker

    Town 3020S 1925E

    Town 2734S 153E

    Town 3028S 1949E has bunker, SE corner of town borders the edge of map, careful running too far south out of town on that side.

    town 1709S 2716E

    town 1525S 2634W has two cemetaries

    Town 1652S 854W has bunker

    Cemetary 414N 2987W

    Hub2 1150N 1500W

    Mine 800s 750E

    Small poi spot, has a bank, 3 other buildings 2473N 1108W

     

    I have explored alot of the roads in the map but There are still ones that I havent gone down. Tons of little dirt walkways so when they fix the poi's for them hopefully it will add a bunch more to the map. There is a large body of water that runs along the north west corner of the map, havent found any other large bodies of water. A large snow biome that is north east out of the main hub that extends all the way over to the town at 130N 2015E and the north part of town is in the snow biome while the south side is in a desert biome.

     

    Hope all this info on InsaneHCA14 helps, make sure to use case when typing in the name else you'll get something totally different

     

    Edit in: fixed some late night typos

     

    Vulkatiian Dexi - yeah same bug, nothing spawns at the end of the dirt roads, it plagues both console systems.

     

    I started a new game using this seed since its clearly got a good amount of towns and POIs in it.

     

    Spawned near the 2250N 350E town so i have setup my own little bunker/mine there while i thoroughly explore the town. Noticed there is a desert biome not far away too which is good. Still need to locate the bunker thats in town.

     

    My question is though, is there a viable source of water nearby? Havent been able to explore outside the town much yet but im going to be needing water soon and was hoping someone could lead me in the right direction.
