Strange Happenings Conserning Population Caps
« on: April 28, 2010, 03:45:16 pm »
I've heard that some people have been having trouble with low POP_MAX values, but my fortresses have always stayed at the cap I place.

EXACTLY at the cap I place.


I at first thought it odd when 18 dwarves with multiple artifacts  got an immigrant wave of only two, but then I tried raising the cap up to 25.
Sure enough, I got exactly 5 immigrants the next spring.


So, has anyone else noticed this?  Or is this all just some random fluke?

Dwarven economics are still in the experimental stages. The humans have told them that they need to throw a lot of money around to get things going, but every time the dwarves try all they just end up with a bunch of coins lying all over the place.
