Map/Game seeds

[yanner39]

I’m trying to load up a map from another player. We have the same settings, same mods are enabled, I enter the same map and game seeds and I NEVER roll the same map. I’m not sure what the problem is.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

So the map type, size, number of civs, number of city states, which civ you're playing as, world settings (like world age, start position, etc) are all the same?

Are you using different mods than your friend?

AFAIK the map seed +world settings like hot/dry/sea level strictly determines the map itself. This doesn't mean you'll always get the same start location depending on who is in the game, though.

Thank you to you both for answering. Yeah, it was the fact it was a wet map that was left out. It’s all good.

I think when a player loads up a map using YNAMP mod, even if I am using YNAMP, same map/game seed, same everything else, we won’t load up the same location.

Can anybody confirm this? I think this mod messes with things.
