For the time being, I have set dwarves to hit working age at 3. If I get a child migrant, I know that the maximum I have to wait is 2 years before they're useful. On a related note, so many of my migrants seem to have some competent weapon skill.

How do you change working age?
As currently more then half of my fort is children.
In creatre_standard.txt, the dwarf entry will have a [CHILD:12] tag. Change that to a more suitable number to have working 'toddlers'. "If you're old enough to walk, you're old enough to work!"

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.
