I don't bother turning off rent or economy. I find that my huge masonry, smelting, hauling and dumping projects keep everyone employed.

I generally will make a soil type sandy, since I find sand is actually pretty uncommon in good embark locations.

I have done made all "sandy" soils into [SOIL_SAND]. It's silly that I couldn't otherwise harvest sand from soil that has sand in it just because it's not all sand.

I use Dwarf Companion to make sure my critical caravan people are not deciding to fall asleep at the wrong time (broker, mayor, squad leader guarding the depot).

I also change the mood requirements to be sure no one goes insane based on items I don't have.

I actually like playing with the economy. Unlike a lot of players, I don't have dedicated smelters, tanners, butchers, etc. If you're designated a hauler you're a smelter/thresher/butcher/tanner/miller/mason/mechanic/pump operator/siege operator/hauler. It gives me a good reason to keep a lot of things going.

I turn rent off though. The lack of a supply/demand mechanic makes them stupid right now, if you have 200 rooms, all of them with a value of 2000, they'd still be cheap to rent in a fort of 100 dwarves because there are so many of them.
