MemoryJanitor
Lowers memory use in big modpacks: half-resolution textures (the game renders at 620x364), frees idle decompressed audio, and cleans up unused assets when the ship reaches orbit.

This mod requires the following mods to function
BepInEx-BepInExPack
BepInEx pack for Mono Unity games. Preconfigured and ready to use.
Preferred version: 5.4.2100README
MemoryJanitor
Lowers memory use in big Lethal Company modpacks.
- Half-resolution textures. Skips the largest mip level of every texture. Lethal Company renders the world at 620×364, so textures above that resolution are mostly wasted. This saves about 75% of texture memory and looks the same in game.
- Frees idle audio. Clips set to Decompress On Load stay in RAM as raw PCM after they've played. Every 30 s, MemoryJanitor frees the ones that haven't played for 2 minutes. When the ship reaches orbit, it frees every idle one. Unity reloads a clip the next time it plays.
- Orbit cleanup. When the ship reaches orbit, it runs
Resources.UnloadUnusedAssetsand a garbage collection to drop whatever the last moon left behind. This pass freezes the game briefly, so it only runs in orbit.
Pairs well with BundleSlimmer, which fixes LZMA bundles and audio settings on disk, and with LethalSponge's
dedupe options (deDupeMeshes, deDupeTextures, deDupeAudio).
Config
BepInEx/config/lcmemfix.MemoryJanitor.cfg
| Section | Setting | Default | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Textures | MipmapLimit |
1 | Mip levels to skip. 1 = half resolution, 2 = quarter. 0 = off. |
| Audio | UnloadIdleDecompressedAudio |
true | Free idle audio at all (sweep and orbit). |
| Audio | SweepSeconds |
30 | How often the idle-audio sweep runs. 0 = orbit only. |
| Audio | IdleMinutes |
2 | The sweep only frees clips that haven't played for this long. |
| Audio | MinClipSeconds |
3 | Ignore clips shorter than this. |
| Audio | IncludePreloadedClips |
false | Also free clips marked Preload Audio Data. |
| General | UnloadUnusedAssets |
true | Run the full unused-asset cleanup in orbit. |
| General | DelaySeconds |
4 | Wait this long after reaching orbit before cleaning. |
| Diagnostics | MemoryReports |
false | Log a memory breakdown at the menu, after landing and in orbit. Causes short freezes. |
Good to know
- Client-side. Players with and without it can play together.
- A freed clip may stutter for a moment the first time it plays again.

CHANGELOG
Changelog
1.3.0
- Idle-audio sweep every 30 s (
SweepSeconds,IdleMinutes), not just in orbit. - Memory reports are now off by default.
1.2.0

MipmapLimit, default 1 = half resolution).
1.1.0
