[0.31.25] I think I've run out of migrants
« on: November 14, 2013, 04:43:02 pm »
So I've been running my main fort for 23 years dwarven time, a few have died (maybe 100 or so?) but most stayed alive, and I'm stuck at a population of 120. I tried increasing my population cap but it did nothing. I generated in a pretty huge size world so I doubt my civ just ran out of dwarves but I guess it's possible. Is it possible to just "run out of migrants"? If so, how do I fix it? I still want my fort to grow without waiting for dwarves to have their kids grow up.

Depending on the danger level, migrants will stop coming (I think? I just assume that from the "MIGRANTS HAVE ARRIVED, DESPITE THE DANGER!" message).

Civs usually have multiple thousands of dwarves, so unless someone's been genociding the dwarves your civ probably has heaps. Maybe try going a while without having any die.

If you get over 3k units, dead or alive--dwarves or zombies or whatever--migrants stop coming. 

A work around is DFHack:  fix/dead-units
