1  A cap Dwarf pop so player set cap Dwarfs in  Fortress one time so game will not lock up you up to 300+ dwarfs
2  A dwarf tells do work dwarfs player will not need tell all 180 dwarfs do stuff so cut work load on player
3  cut the cost skill points for dwarf you set up Dwarf Fortress and cut cost points for cows and sheep and hunting/war dogs

1  A cap Dwarf pop so player set cap Dwarfs in  Fortress one time so game will not lock up you up to 300+ dwarfs

Already done - look in /data/init/d_init.txt

2  A dwarf tells do work dwarfs player will not need tell all 180 dwarfs do stuff so cut work load on player

This would be problematic - what if a dwarf tells another dwarf to build a workshop in your aqueduct for example?

3  cut the cost skill points for dwarf you set up Dwarf Fortress and cut cost points for cows and sheep and hunting/war dogs

Why? To make it easier? I admit - having a variable point cap at the start would be useful, but still...
Also - dogs are already the cheapest source of meat, if I remember correctly. Making them cheaper would horribly break the game, methinks...

4 make it work on 4cpus

We all wish for multi-core support... And 64-bit support... And proformance enhancements... and... and...
He is making this game by himself, after all...

2: Read that. Think "Can anyone else understand this?". Rewrite it.

3: That's already done. You can change the total number of starting points in the world generator settings. You have to make a new, custom world, then up the "embark points" value.

4: That's not easy to do, and has been requested before.

If he's getting 300 dwarves than there's some kind of error with the population cap, because the default maximum is 200 dwarves.

I've never noticed setting a pop-cap actually working, so...

It might be workable if such auto-created buildings could only be constructed within specific zones designated by the player (as per "SimCity 2000", "SimCity 3000", and "Afterlife")

Plus a hundred kids.
