Hello guys,
I activated cloudflare on my website because I was told it was good against ddos attacks.
But when the cloudflare is active, no one player can connect in the game, does anyone know why?
The site loads normally.

Thx!

Create a subdomain and use it as address to connect it to the game, free protection from Cloudflare cannot route packets to the 7171/7172 ports.

Hello, thank you very much for responding, it was quite enlightening. I researched the internet about creating a subdomain and had the answer:
www.mysite.com -> DOMAIN
exemple.mysite.com -> SUBDOMAIN


Am I right? If yes how can I do this, since I already own a domain? (www.mysite.com)
 
Yes, `example` is a subdomain of `mysite.com`.

You should check your the DNS of your domain name and create an A record with the name of your prefix and the global IP.
Sometimes, hosting providers have easier ways to create a subdomain. You might check your controlpanel first before fidgetting with your DNS.

Hmm, i see in Manage DNS:

manage A
manage AAA
manage CNAME
manage MIX
manage NS
manage TXT
manage SRV
manage SOA


in which of these should I create the subdomain? thx!!
 
When you make a subdomain, it should be cname

Then you must put that subdomain as gray cloud instead of orange, and in config.lua you need to specify that subdomain.
Kinda like this:
