Can map generator settings be retrieved?

[realm174]

I started a new map, with modified (from default) settings, played with it a while, then realised I wanted to make some adjustments. In other words, I wanted to start a new game, with the settings I had before, but slightly modified. Is there a way to retrieve the settings from a saved game? Furthermore, is there a way to make the settings stay from one game to the next, so that once I find a set of settings I like, that I can create other maps with the same settings without having to go through the whole selecting from pulldown menus again?

thanks!

if you want to reuse the settings from the map you can open the map and then hit reset to create a new map with the same settings and seed. if you do this make sure to make a new save right away so as to not over right the old one.

you can also get the map exchange string from the bottom left in the load menu

Thanks guys, that helps part of the issue.. I can replicate the map/settings, but I can't view/change those settings tho, right?

If you load your map exchange string into a new map it should update the settings for you and you can adjust from there.
