We're using 6.17.3 now and it's really nowhere to be found, after running the game many times. We've tried moving directories, running a distribution, save-quit-load... still no sign of image_cache.txt.

Yeah, we have that. What will trigger image_cache.txt to show up?

Are we supposed to do anything specific for it to show up?

He's going to be out for a few days, but I can say image_cache.txt is nowhere to be found. Not Ren'py's folder nor the game's folder.

Memory consumption starts out at 500mb and peaks at 1.4GB, then it just kinda hovers there.

One issue we want to address is memory consumption that doesn't go down after leaving a memory-intensive area. I don't think that's an issue, unless the increases are cumulative (in which case it really is leaking memory). Plenty of other apps do the same thing. The only thing that really matters i...

Yeah, we're considering downscaling the remaining resources as a last resort (already optimized the sprites). We use imagepaths and we do hide images/screens. Gonna have our programmer post actual code in a few minutes. Not sure what we're doing wrong. One issue we want to address is memory consumpt...

Is this within Ren'py? Any tips? Our programmer isn't quite sure yet how to go about memory management on Ren'py.

It will if you build them from 6.17.x... Tried and we still have the same problem. Same memory consumption, but now it goes up only when you interact with the environment or enter a new area. Once you leave a memory-intensive area, memory consumption doesn't go down. Is there any way to remedy this...

Will it fix the problem for distribution builds? We never really upgraded from 6.16.1.

Is there a way to optimize memory? We've found that our game eats a lot of memory even when you're not doing anything. It would start at 400MB and reach nearly 1.5GB memory consumption by simply moving from one screen to another and talking to people.

They should breakthrough easily. They're on a pretty nice path.

One final bump before we release the demo in other places. If you've tried it, please do share your thoughts about what we have so far.

With you as my muse, I can climb the mountains of Mars!

That is so strange. Skimming through them quickly, many of these missing words should not be missing (e.g. "How am I supposed to know what the damn code is?", “I thought you were than that. Don't disappoint me.”). Definitely gotta get our programmer on this! EDIT: Now I know what's going o...
