__NOTOC__
This function changes the behavior of the GTA:SA streaming system. It is meant to optimize the performance of the game for your custom server. Changes in these properties affect the gameplay quality of the entire server.

==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
bool engineStreamingSetProperty ( string propertyName, var propValue )
</syntaxhighlight>

===Arguments===
*'''propertyName:''' the name of the streaming property you want to change
*'''propValue:''' value to pass to the property

===Valid Properties===
{{:MTA:Eir/functions/engineStreamingSetProperty/validProps}}

===Useful Media===

===Returns===
Returns ''true'' if valid arguments have been passed, ''false'' otherwise.

==Examples==
<section name="Client" class="client" show="true">
This snippet ultimatively fixes the world flickering.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
engineStreamingSetProperty( "strictNodeDistrib", false );
engineStreamingSetProperty( "infiniteStreaming", true );
</syntaxhighlight>
</section>

<section name="Client" class="client" show="true">
This snippet sets the Streaming GC system to sparse mode. In this mode only the preallocated amount of Streaming GC nodes is allowed. Keeping a low amount of Streaming nodes is interesting for performance optimizations.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
engineStreamingSetProperty( "gcOnDemand", true );
engineStreamingSetProperty( "infiniteStreaming", false );
engineStreamingSetProperty( "strictNodeDistrib", true );
</syntaxhighlight>
</section>

<section name="Client" class="client" show="true">
This snippet turns on fibered loading when the Streaming system is busy and leaves it that way for five seconds.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
engineStreamingSetProperty( "isFibered", false );

local lastBusyTime = false;
local fiberedDuration = 5000;

addEventHandler( "onClientRender", root,
function()
local isBusy = engineGetStreamingInfo().isBusy;

if ( isBusy ) then
local now = getTickCount();

if not ( lastBusyTime ) then
lastBusyTime = now;

engineStreamingSetProperty( "isFibered", true );
end
elseif ( lastBusyTime ) then
if ( now - lastBusyTime > fiberedDuration ) then
engineStreamingSetProperty( "isFibered", false );
end
end
end
);
</syntaxhighlight>
</section>

<section name="Client" class="client" show="true">
This snippet makes the world load very slow. Lag spikes cannot occur due to Streaming loading anymore.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
engineStreamingSetProperty( "isFibered", true );
engineStreamingSetProperty( "fiberedPerfMult", 0 );
</syntaxhighlight>
