 Description   

Seeds from the world-settings config are parsed as integers while in vanilla it may possible for them to be (and usually are) longs. This makes it impossible to use most seeds to predictably generate structures and have vanilla behavior. The attached pictures relate to the seed `-8520464341868628165`. A quad witch hut should spawn at approximately 4472, 2920 but this is not the case in Spigot as that seed is instead parsed as `227129147`.

Sorry, I think I was running into a different issue and misunderstood the purpose of the seeds as defined in spigot.yml and thought that was the cause. I was unable to reproduce this issue on a fresh world, guessing something was wrong with the level.dat of the world that I was trying to import from. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Structure seeds can only be ints not longs in Vanilla, so you're gonna have to be more specific about what the issue is

Which seeds specifically are you talking about?
Spigot.yml or server.properties?
The former are all ints by default in Vanilla and I'm pretty sure the latter work fine in Spigot.
