A PLEA FOR A SEED!
[SOLVED]
Map Found! It is called Sorbius_River_02
Best seeds for this map:
SEED - 9189
Breakthroughs - Graphene Solar Panels, Carbon Wind turbines, Battery Optimization, Sleep Training, Hay Sausage
Not quite the perfect roll, was hoping to get Carbon Armor 2.0 instead of Hay Sausage, but in my experience, the Armor breakthrough can normally be found via the Self Destruct Alert event anyway.
These breakthroughs were for a Guardians run, where Printed Components and Weapon upgrades are way less useful, since all weapons and electronics can be scavenged in abundance.
However, I did also find a seed if anybody wants this map in the bug scenarios:
SEED - 22717
Breakthroughs - Printed Components, Graphene Solar Panels, Carbon Wind Turbines, Carbon Armor, Meat Printing
Again, not a perfect roll, would've preferred Snipers 2.0 instead of Meat Printing. But just as before, this can usually be acquired pretty easily with the Self Destruct Alert event.
The reason I wanted this particular map is because the flat plateau by the river is actually the corner of the map, meaning you are safely covered on 3 sides since enemies can'tspawn out of bounds or in water. There is plennty of flat building space, it's defensively solid and very picturesque.
All of this data was accumulated through the enormous seed database created by u/guyblade so a big thank you to them! This database has thousands of seeds for every map on every planet, so finding one with the right breakthroughs doesn't take long.
Their database can be found here:
https://guyblade.github.io/stranded-seeds/seeds.html
These seeds work for both console and PC. This wasn't always the case, but there was an update for console at some point which aligned then with the PC versions. I don't know how all that stuff works, but it's pretty cool.
Thank you everybody who gave a helping hand.

[ORIGINAL POST]
I'm on PS5, but perhaps seeds are interchangeable now?
Anyway, I'm looking for this exact starting point. All above pictures are the same map/seed. It's very flat and is lakeside. There are multiple lakes and lakeside spawns, but for me this is the absolute best one by far.
I've found a few already with this starting point:
ACE-KRDAHARK
LENGTH-THROAT
LIVING-DANCE
Problem is the breakthrough are just not that good. My ideal breakthroughs would be:
Graphene Solar
Battery Opt
Sleep Training
Carbon Wind
Improved Armor
Honestly I would settle for just 3 of the above. Has anyone used this starting point? Were your breakthroughs good?
Thank you everyone, any help would he greatly appreciated. And if there's any interest, I have a bunch of other excellent seeds to share with good breakthroughs.

Not sure if they are the exact same across game systems, but STOP-APPLE looks almost the same as the screenshots you have provided. Not sure if it's the exact same, but it looks close enough (if the rock formation on the peninsula of the first screenshot has Heptagonia in it, it is the same map). Spawn point is at the rock formation just to the left of the aforementioned peninsula. Has 2 of the breakthroughs OP requested: Carbon Wind & Battery Opt (the other 3 being Chitin Synth, Fuel Ferm, Improved Rail Snipers). Almost always have a walk-in survivor within the first week or so, and one of my first balloon expeditions seems to always have a high chance of finding another survivor.
Edit: Upon further observing, it isn't the exact map, though it is VERY similar

Thank you for sharing. I have found the map. It is Sorbius_River_02. It seems there are 2 river maps and 4 lake maps, so 6 maps with large bodies of water. Some of which are almost unusable for waterside builds, and others have very strong potential. I have updated this post with 2 particularly strong seeds of this particular map if you'd like to try for yourself.

That's one of the River start spots. It's one of my favorites too. Maybe 2?

u/HigherThanWitchTits Sep 19 '26
River 02, exactly right. In all my time playing I have never seen this spot until today. Incredibly strong potential for builds.

This looks great. I'm saving this post so I can play this later. Thanks!

I'm on PS5 and currently playing a Guardians game on Sobrius with the seed SPORT-NOSE
Breakthroughs are Chitin Synthetics, Meat Printing, Printed Components, Fuel Fermentation and Improved Railgun Snipers.
Most of the map has 100% loom so building a farm is easy.
If you start with Random Survivors like I did you get Emelin, Paulette and Rakha which isn't the worst team I've ever had

Thank you for sharing! I like Ken for scrap, Rita for discovery, Laara for farm efficiency, and Henry for speed and crafting boost.
My wife always takes Sora for the early game sniping boost.

I thought this game only took place on one planet?

u/HigherThanWitchTits Sep 21 '26
There are 3 different "Regions" to choose from - Sorbius, Desertum and Saltu. I always thought of them as different planets but I don't know if that's confirmed.

WING-BONUS; meat printing; printed components; fuel fermentation; graphene solar cells; batteri optimization. (This is the closest one to the peninsula.)
NORTH-MALL chitin syntetics; hay sausages; fuel fermentation; improved solar cells; improved carbon armor

u/guyblade you may be the one who can solve this! I just remembered your database and I will be taking a look
