I was wondering, do migrant waves always spawn in a location from which they can reach your fort, and do they always spawn in the same location?

[Heavily Armed Effigy]

They spawn in different places, and in my experience they are not always capable of reaching the fort (due to raised drawbridges etc.)

Thanks. Ah well, no being lazy for me.

I once had a migrant woodcutter show up on the wrong side of the river, all by himself. Didn't notice until he went bonkers and died sometime later.

Migrants certainly shows up in inaccessible spots. Very annoying when working somewhere with map-cutting rivers or cliffs 

[Triaxx2]

Bloody migrants. The one time I did have them on the far side of the river, I was able to give them an axe via bridge-a-pult. They built a floor across out of cut logs.

I didn't have any spare lumber on my side, or rather not enough to get across. Big river.

oh it gets really dwarfy when a group of 20+ migrants show up at the same time and place as a ambush

At least they don't start a tantrum too quickly.

Can i disable migrations without disable births?

That's what popcap does.

[Nikow]

No. POPULATION_CAP disable migrants and new pregnants. I want disable only migrants, I want create big fortress with only 12 starts dwarfs.

Err, I have a LOT of forts that's past pop cap, and I'm still getting pregnancy and births... That's controlled by entirely different section, further down I believe.

[Nikow]

Ok, thanks

I haved 18 dwarfs (10 womens and 8 mens). I set popcap on 7. I started in midsumer 164, and i played to late winter 171. My dwarfs have a lot of free time. No pregnants. What i must do to have babys? :>

Friends ---> Lovers ---> Marriages

So, lots of downtime and a small meeting area should encourage the sweet, sweet beard-bonding that is Dwarven Love.
