In short, is it possible and if so, how?

[andrea]

wall the whole map. using statues, so that you can build at the borders.

[Taritus]

That was supposed to be read as, without stopping other caravans.  Can I piss off the mountainhome?

Getting the king prevents further dwarven caravans from arriving.

I thought it just stopped liasons? If that's true then I'd better stop building roads 'cause I like my Dwarf caravans.

[ToonyMan]

I have a King and I still get dwarven cavarns.

[Ashery]

Ah, guess I was wrong then...Haven't actually gotten him myself ;p

[Dhargk]

No problem, everyone makes mistakes. It's just that I was curious myself because I knew it stopped something, but I thought it was liaisons. It is. See: http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Liason#Dwarven

[ToonyMan]

Yeah, you'll be lucky to get him by even the 10th year.  I got mine the 8th year and gold and platinum roads yaddha yaddha.

Bleh, decided to make the caravan a group of merchants who travel the north and buy stuff from humans and the like.  Was trying to figure out how to do thing for http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=27939.0

remove the "intelligent" tag from the dwarves, replace with can_civ can_learn. Do not add can_speak. Can_speak is what allows liaisons and I think it also allows caravans.

But then they can't practice their social skills, so your trader will level up slowly. hmmm... decisions decisions.

[Demonic Gophers]

Remove the active season entry from the dwarven entity definition.  I think this will keep them from sending caravans.  With no active season, there's no time of the year when they'll send one.

[ToonyMan]

That sounds like it will work, try that. 

[Bobokapi]

It won't work, changes to the entity file require a new world to take effect.
