No migrants
« on: July 31, 2014, 06:29:48 pm »
So I just got an announcement for autumn and I just realized......I never got my first migrant wave. My civilization seems to still be alive, It has a queen, diplomat, and etc, not on site.

EDIT: I also just got a caravan and liaison.

check your d_init.txt for [strict_population_cap]. If it doesn't have any, you won't get any migrants or babies.

I thought the first 2 migrations were hard coded. i.e. no matter what the cap they would show.

EDIT: THe cap is 220

Same problem here. Using DF Starter Pack. Tried two different games, different location, etc. Had contact with the 3 races, traded with them, no attacks, no problems. But never got past the initial 7 dwarfs. no one shows up, after 2 years ingame.

the d_init has the following:

[POPULATION_CAP:200]
[BABY_CHILD_CAP:50:30]


didnt see the [strict_population_cap]. Is it supposed to be on the d_init or its the same as [POPULATION_CAP:200] ?

Yeah. Retire your fort and check legends mode. I thought migrants and caravans were bugged too, but in actuality I was on the other side of the world from my civ and they were still traveling to my site.

I'm in a small world with 1 land mass.

Try creating a new world, with small history, like 100 years or so. From old forum posts I read that its possible (or at least was) that in rare occasions the civilizations get wiped out (or close to) during history and it affects the migrants.

If the problem persists in a new world, than you should probably report the issue in the bug tracker.
