Im having some issues with prism layers around interior walls:

1) at some places, the number of layers seems to decrease and then increase back to my specified amount. Any idea why this could be happening?

2) At the end of the interior wall, the prisms seem to taper off to nothing. I have seen other results where this is done properly, but can't seem to mimic it. I have tried lowering my minimum quality to 1e-6 which fixed some areas, but not all. I get the following message when generating my prism using the batch utility:

max_prism_angle reset to 179.943 because the min_prism_quality is 1e-006

Do I need to set the min quality even lower, or is there some other root problem?
