Big islands seconds in good seeds , just add some more sailing

Bad seeds : little islands with everything far aways , swamps with few crypts , mountain islands with few or no one caves , and bosses very far far away each another

Thank you, this kinds gives me a good notion of what to look for if I start another world. I guess that right now I'm somewhere in between. I have lots of basic stuff handy but more advanced areas/materials are nowhere to be found so I'll most likely have to make a secondary coastal base.

It can show you where everything is on the seed you input. And it also can let you check out other seeds and what they may offer.

That's a really useful tool! Thank you everybody for the help, I really appreciate it.

Kind of ruins the whole explore experience though.
I have played close to 30 different worlds and never looked any of them up.

It really is about the experience desired. If you just want to make the game easy you can use console commands for everything too.

It only ruins the experience if you have a photographic memory which most people don't have.

That world generator will show you if a Maypole exists in a seed and a LOT of them don't. Similar with Trader locations but for a different reason. You can complete all the boss fights without ever finding him.

The only way to find out these things as far as I know is using that site. I've used the randomiser for a glance and by the time I put the seed into a new map, I don't really recall much of anything I saw.
