Sets the maximum amount of RAM [in bytes] that can be used for streaming

Tip

The showmemstat command can be used to see this value in real-time [You might have to scroll down using PgDown on your keyboard]

Tip

To restore to default value use engineStreamingRestoreMemorySize

Important

This function is meant for advanced users only, as it can lead to stability issues . Using a very high value might result in more crashes, while using a value too low might lead to frequent pop-in [and due to the way MTA works micro-stutter as well]

        outputChatBox("The maximum streaming memory available has been changed from " .. math.floor(engineStreamingGetMemorySize() / 1024 / 1024) .. " MB to " .. sizeMB .. " MB")
        engineStreamingSetMemorySize(tonumber(sizeMB) * 1024 * 1024) -- Convert MB to Bytes
