The d_init.txt file can be used to make many adjustments to the game's behavior, such as enabling autosave or changing the population limit, as well as some technical tricks to improve framerate by deactivating features like weather and temperature.

This file is located at <Dwarf Fortress>/prefs/d_init.txt. The default settings and an explanation of each can be found at <Dwarf Fortress>/data/init/d_init_default.txt. Changes made to this file take effect the next time the game is loaded, and apply to all worlds.

The contents of the default d_init_default.txt file can be found below.

  • The text in the file says you need a population of 80 for a monarch, but you actually need 140.
