DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / How do I make my married dwarves have more babies
« on: March 25, 2021, 10:41:47 am »
So I am not getting any migrants at the moment so I am trying to grow my population the old fashioned way. I have 5 married couples in my fort, but they don't seem to be getting very busy.  Does anyone know the exact mechanics of what causes pregnancy?  I have plenty of food and drinks, little stress, a light workload, the married women are kept from danger, and they all seem pretty happy.  Do I have to make sure that the married couples idle together? Socialize together? Sleep at the same time? Is it really just spores and there is nothing I can do? I have a 1 year old and 2 four year olds and some older kids.  So some births are happening, but it's not the one baby per couple per year that is rumored.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Make the Outpost Liaison and Caravan come back
« on: March 17, 2021, 12:54:35 pm »
So I built a caravan road into the caverns where I am living (with ramps and everything) and it passed through a light aquifer.  I didn't initially seal the aquifer correctly so there was 1/7 water in some parts of the road.  Something happened when the dwarven caravan tried to cross this part of the road and a wagon exploded or something.  One of the merchants was hanging onto the wall next to the ramp and couldn't get off until I built a floor over the ramp next to him.  Everyone else had left by that point except for one swordsdwarf who waited for the merchant and left with him.  There are now no merchants or wagons on my map and neither the caravan nor the outpost liaison has come for three years (falls).  I am quite certain my civilization is not dead and I get a notification every season that my fort attracted no migrants.  I have fixed sealing up the aquifer so the road is now dry and the human caravan makes it to my trade depot with its wagons. 

Is there a way to make the liaison and caravan come back?
