from what I've studied in my own game, memory just builds up over time due to the heavy amount of sprites/objects in every room? and it-

@DreamsBell -never dumps that memory until you restart the application. Unless I've been doing something wrong?

@DreamsBell Have you tried optimizing texture pages? Also do you free all your surfaces and data structures?

@DreamsBell It sounds like you have a memory leak somewhere

@askiisoft yyyeahhh, my game uses like, a few gigs of memory when it's been running for a while?

@DreamsBell oh wow, that doesn't sound right! Texture page optimization is really just for increasing fps - https://www.yoyogames.com/blog/23 

@askiisoft ahh, my game always runs at the fps I specified at least
