Peasant Migrants Please !
« on: May 06, 2011, 06:44:24 am »

Hey I was wondering if its possible at all to make your migrants always migrate with absolutely  no skills what so ever (Or just with military skills is fine too)

I believe you just have to remove the [INTELLIGENT] tag and replace it with [CANLEARN].

Worth a shot!

Update: Erm replacing the [INTELLIGENT] tag with [CANLEARN] results in the game crashing after i press E for embark on the prepare for embark screen

And try an actual token like [CAN_LEARN] instead. Imaginary tokens do not work :).

Note that it will make them unable to speak, so they will not get social skills, trade and will be at war with everyone. And I think they will still get the migrants with skills because of CAN_LEARN. So yeah.

They still get social skills. I read that Tiger Men (Who cannot speak) still get skills anyway.

Mrrr thats what was fishy about the [CANLEARN] tag I knew there was something wrong with it but i didn't know it was that simple!


Anyway I will add the underscore to the tag and try again and hope for the best.... wait no i already know what will happen, because I once gave all my cats [CAN_LEARN] and i had things migrating like "Diagnoser cats"

Update: OHhhhh dear Amok, I tried it anyway and all my dwarfs told me "This animal is unable to work" When i went to the labours screen!

From what I remember the last time this came up, it can't be done.  Searching for peasants just came up with about 4 pages of other random things like making immigrants show up with useful skills instead of any skill(by removing whatever skills the modder considers useless) or changing the name of peasants to something else, like slaves.

My suggestion, custom professions to let you distinguish between your farmer that's a master grower, and your farmer that's a newly arrived novice grower/herbalist/lye-maker/dyer.  There's no modding involved for that though.

Allrighty thanks anyway thoa, I Just have a thing for having the dwarfs use the color of their job as i think it looks nicer  and i could also tell who is actually trained and is doing a job and the ones doing nothing would just be peasants
