Prison not reducing prisoner health?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I noticed in the level NeverGrim that no matter how long i kept creatures in 
the prison, they wouldnt lose any health, so i couldnt make any 
skeletons...they did make the starving animation but never lost any health at 
all.

I took a look at the rules.cfg file and saw this line :

PrisonHealthGain = 50
GameTurnsPerPrisonHealthGain = 400

Not sure if it should be health gain? I tried changing it to HealthLoss and 
started a new map, but it didnt make any difference. I also tried changing the 
numbers to -500 health and game turns to 1, but that also did nothing.

Keepeerfx log shows :

Sync: set_creature_assigned_job: Assigned job NULL for creature SORCEROR index 
122 owner 0
Sync: set_creature_assigned_job: Assigned job FREEZE_PRISONERS for creature 
SORCEROR index 122 owner 0
Sync: set_creature_assigned_job: Assigned job NULL for creature HELL_HOUND 
index 189 owner 0
Sync: set_creature_assigned_job: Assigned job FREEZE_PRISONERS for creature 
HELL_HOUND index 189 owner 0

This is after i dropped a warlock and a hellhound into the prison, should it be 
freeze prisoners? I think that's the spider's job...

Creatures in prison do not lose health automatically - only torturing makes 
them lose their health.

In prison, creatures can only starve - and all humanoid creatures which do not 
have heal spell and need food will become skeletons, but only after they get 
hungry and starve to death.

Regarding GameTurnsPerPrisonHealthGain - this option is unused. Its value 
doesn't affect anything.

Alright that clears it up. It seems to take absolutely forever for creatures to 
die in a prison though.

How is the time to die determined, if its not based on hp loss? And if its not 
based on hp loss, why can creatures heal themselve to avoid dying in a prison?

And where do you go to check the keeperFX values for prisons, if those values 
in the rules.cfg do not work?

As I already wrote, creatures die in prison when they starve to death.

I don't think there are any "values for prison", besides skeleton creation 
chance (which is currently 100%). All settings are in various CFG files. You 
can search through them in any file manager.

But if they are starving to death, they should be losing health right? That 
does not appear to be occuring...

I also didnt notice prisoners dying quicker when i dramatically increased the 
speed at which creatures starved to death (see the other issue on this).

Cant find the edit button for comments, but basically you are saying there are 
no prison specific values that you can edit to make prisoners starve quicker?

There are no prison specific values, prisoners are starving like all other 
creatures.

OK so how do i alter the rate at which prisoners starve? Without altering the 
normal starvation rate?
