It is my suspicion that the terrain of classic mode is far less likely to meet these spawning conditions. It is also my understanding that the current spawning rates are very high, so high in fact, that if the spawning conditions are met, it almost certainly spawns a settlement. So I suppose what you really want would be for the spawning conditions to be less specific, right?

Just out of curiousity, if classic mode isn't providing you a suitable experience, why not play on normal mode?

oh one more thing....just created another classic to see if my luck got any better...nope

And I don't think it's the spawning condition issue, I think classic and normal mode simply have different spawn rate. Passed through a lot of empty flat lands in classic but still nothing
