I'm completely new to modding DF, so I thought I thought it would be fun to try playing the dwarves in a mod, even though the mod I picked has tons of playable races (I guess it doesn't matter which one?). The trouble is, the first few worlds I generated ended not having any dwarf civilizations in them. The only control I could find in the world parameters was to force at least one playable race, but of course that doesn't work in this mod to ensure there are dwarves around.

Is there a way to force the game to generate a world that includes dwarves? Maybe I should remove the "playable" tag from all the other races? Is that possible without otherwise screw up the mod? And, how would I do that?

You can get rid of the fortress_controllable tag (or remove its brackets) in each of the entities that has it. You would have to go into each entity_x file in a word processor, do a ctrl+f search for the fort controllable tag with its brackets, and remove the brackets/tag. Except for the one on the dwarf entity

Note; Tag might not be FORT_CONTROLLABLE, I'm at work and can't look it up

It’s [SITE_CONTROLLABLE] or [CIV_CONTROLLABLE], depending on the mod you’re using.

Thanks. I will give that a try!
