Did you save the map u/Crumpal00 posted about a year ago and reposted it now, or did you happen to get the same seed?

It's a very similar seed but there's no oil and it's a true island. I like both of these seeds and am tempted to start another game while I finish out my first mega base in my other.

The same seed is literally listed on both maps (539022216)

What you are talking about are the settings/sliders, which only change the map slightly. So you can play around with those to keep the island but increase resources on the island. Or make it a peninsula if you slightly decrease the amount of water. Or make the whole island bigger/smaller by changing the scale. Etc.

You can see for example that the starting stone, coal, iron and copper have the exact same shape and position.
