Can you turn off imagrants?

[Goblin Dragoon 085]

Kinda.
You can lower population cap in the init, to avoid immigration (you wll however get nobles etc through immigration). This might however lead to a fortress with 20 adults and 180 childs+infants, which is bad, very very bad.
So better lower the child_cap as well.

.../df folder/data/init/init.txt

change
[POPULATION_CAP:200]
and
[BABY_CHILD_CAP:100:1000]

So.. children never grow up?

[Bogdanov]

i think it takes AT LEAST 5 years for a child to grow to an adult, and about 2-3 years for a baby to turn into a chield

It takes twelve years for a dwarf child to grow up, and three years for a baby to turn into a child.  If he survives through childhood, it will take him six more weeks to find a way of killing himself extravagantly.

According to the raws dwarves remain baby's for only one year, and indeed become (un)productive members of society on their twelfth birthday.
