How much does the Random Seed Affect FT3+?

I am using FT3 for the first time. I am walking through the essentials guide. I started with the suggested settings and it shows a world with continents. The suggested settings are 50% water. Anyway, I make a couple of tweaks like decreasing the rainfall and increasing the greenhouse slightly. Then I do the new world as the essential guide suggests.

The result is essentially a water world. I could not find a single piece of land. I click new world five more times and the same thing. So I restore the values to what they were initially. I then get continents again. Well, I then do another new world and start a streak of water worlds again but then I get continents again.

So is this due to the random seed? Or is there something else going on? I mean 50% water with height going up to 30,000 should not result in worlds that are 100% water.
