Increase memory allocation

Instructions
This has been obsolete for quite a while now. Game automatically allocates memory allocation when needed, and limiting it with the parameter can cause issues. Forum post from developer.

Console

The console can be accessed by pressing ~ in-game.
Instructions
There is an extensive list of console commands documented here.
