[Mr. Bling]

Tarn should release bugfix releases more often and leave enhancements to more major versions. Thank god the next release is near, I've been trying to play hermit challenges and inbreed game (dwarves don't let any immigrant enter the fortress) but they always fail because the dwarves starve.  :mad:

[Jifodus]

I don't get what your problem is.  The reason why there hasn't been a bug fix version is because Toady is working on a major version.

Feeding just 1 dwarf, or with no immigration, 7 dwarves is too easy..
What "bug"do you mean?

[Tarrasque]

Only one I can think of is when your Dwarf looks for Vermin and won't go pick up any new food.

[mickel]

Or where they refuse to eat food because it's claimed by a "move to stockpile" job that is item #500 in the list of jobs... That's destroyed a lot of fortresses for me.

[Fieari]

In fact, with fewer dwarves, you should NEVER see such problems.  In fact, fewer dwarves are EASIER to feed than many... if you know the tricks.  Really, what bugs are you talking about?  It's FAR from impossible to do what you claim is impossible.  Many people have done it.

For a solo dwarf challenge, not necessarily. My original method of killing all the other dwarves involved locking them outside away from the food but they'd get hungry, claim something, get an error pathing, and never relinquish claim. Rinse and repeat until the overview screen was showing 0's for everything but seeds and I get to watch everyone starve until I intervene by butchering something.

I find the best way to deal with unwanted immigrants is to make them wrestle (hunt) wild elephants. Don't forget to set your options to "ignore refuse from outside" and turn off burial or you might accidentally lose your wanted dwarf/dwarves..
