Increasing Memory (Can help with the bot)

If you've edited your ini files previously to increase memory to the programs you can keep the value in the Xmx comment. As a general rule try not to allocate more than 25% of system memory to MegaMek (Java) this way. Realistically 4 gigs of memory provides the memory required to improve performance in MegaMek and MekHQ.

The ini files that can be edited are:

  • Megamek - MegaMek.l4j.ini
  • MegaMekLab - MegaMekLab.l4j.ini
  • MekHQ - MekHQ.l4j.ini

For systems with 16 Gig

Systems with 32 gig of memory should safely be able to go to
