In the init.txt, [ECONOMY:OFF]. I don't think you need to restart, unless the economy has already started.

I think it's a vastly amusing thought that elephants are so afraid of heights that when Dwarves invented the Z-axis, they couldn't bear to face dwarves in combat anymore.

Like any init change, you need to exit and restart DF, but you don't need to regen your world or anything, just load your game after closing DF.

However, if the economy starts, you cannot turn it off in your fort. You can abandon and reclaim or start anew, however - you still don't have to regen a new world.

Thank you.  I'm not entirely sure how I missed that since I specifically went through the init file looking for a way to turn it off...>_<

Happens to everybody at some point.
Just don't do it when there's a topic stickied about the subject already. *cough*When do I need to generate a new world?*cough*
That tends to rile people up.

I couldn't figure out how to turn it off in the first place, so I wasn't sure if I would need to generate a new world...v_v
