    hi, i was playing beamng when all of a sudden my disk space started going down. it happens just when i play it and its around 100mb/minute. is this something happening because of mods or game itself?

    By any chance do you have any third party mods installed? Sometimes they can have viruses

    I think, and this is a big think, the game is using more RAM than you have available, so it digs into your system memory. Does your disk space go back up when you close the game, by chance?

    i had one from modLand and it seems to be fixed when i uninstalled it but rest of the mods are from the ingame repository or repository from beamng site
    --- Post updated ---
    i have 32 gb of ram so its almost impossible for game to take up all of it

    Do you experience this issue in Safe Mode? (launcher -> support tools)
