More babies, faster? Is this possible?
« on: February 10, 2008, 03:37:00 am »

I'm sorry that I have asked this in my old mod thread, but few people answered, and I have a few more questions.

I am trying to make dwarves multiply as fast as possible.
So I have this in my dwarf code.

[CHILD:0][BABY:0][LITTERSIZE:100:200]

Will this make dwarves be born as adults? Will those dwarves have children of their own?

Also, is there ANY way AT ALL to encourage dwarves to have babies earlier and more often, so I'm not waiting around until one married couple have kids?

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

I dont think there's any way for dwarves to just have babies without being married first.

Well that screws up that plan.

Is there anyway to encourage marriage?

Not as far as I can tell, it's unmodable.

Ah well. Thanks for letting me know.

But will [CHILD:0] make dwarves be born as adults? Or should I just delete that?
Or is there any way to make a smelter reaction that will make dwarves?

I have been snooping around old forum posts, and from what I have read you can only create vermin from smelters, since they are from the pet token name or something.

Anybody know of any way around this? If I can just clone my own dwarves, I'll be all set.

Or is there any way to make a vermin turn into a dwarf, or something along those lines?
