I can't use the java plugin to set the maximum allocated RAM to the server while it is running, but I need to make the RAM increase or decrease on the server depending on the number of players.

I tried several ways, via java.args and via runtime. Both methods do not work, it gives a big error to the console.

Why do you need to do this while it’s running? – Dave Newton Apr 15 '23 at 13:34
You can't change the max heap size while a JVM is running. It is not possible. – Stephen C Apr 15 '23 at 13:43
