Summary

• BepInEx 5 plugin alongside the existing NOLoader mod (shared RamReservoir / NoramConfig core)
• Visual Studio solution NORAMAdjust.sln
• Full English documentation: README, CHANGELOG, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md

Install

Pick one loader (NOLoader or BepInEx — never both in the same game folder).

NOLoader

1. Download NORAMAdjust-v1.1.0-NOLoader.zip
2. Extract to Nuclear Option\NOLoader\mods\NORAMAdjust\
3. Requires NOLoader installed
4. No PatchTool step (zero IL patches)

BepInEx

1. Download NORAMAdjust-v1.1.0-BepInEx.zip
2. Extract to Nuclear Option\BepInEx\plugins\com.at747.noramadjust\
3. Requires BepInEx 5 for Unity Mono

Configuration (mod.ini)

Key	Default	Description
enabled	1	Enable/disable reservoir allocation
memory_reservoir_mb	5300	Target managed RAM in MB (5.3 GB decimal)
chunk_mb	64	Allocation chunk size

Compatibility

• Do not run with MpClientOpt memory_budget=1 — combined reservation can exceed 10 GB.
• Do not install NOLoader and BepInEx in the same game directory.

Test plan

• Main menu loads without loader errors
• Log: [NORAMAdjust] reserved=5300MB
• Task Manager: ~+5.3 GB managed RAM at menu

• Memory released on game exit

NORAM Adjust v1.0.0

Summary

• Reduces GC stutter by keeping a stable managed memory footprint during gameplay
• Works for solo, host, and dedicated client sessions
• Zero IL patches — no PatchTool required

2. Download NORAMAdjust-v1.0.0-NOLoader.zip below
3. Extract to Nuclear Option\NOLoader\mods\NORAMAdjust\

Configuration

Edit mod.ini in the mod folder:

Key	Default	Description

memory_reservoir_mb	5300	Target size in MB (5.3 GB decimal)

• Memory released on game exit
