I've noticed that certain games such as Roblox and War Thunder (😢) can't be played when connected to my Outline server. It works with other VPNs (namely Hotspot Shield).

It might be worth noting that I'm running Outline on an ARM server (OCI), so I'm using this script.

I can't seem to get the error code for most of the games (will edit this if I get more), but the one for Roblox is Error code 279. ID = 17 . Minecraft seems to work fine. I've opened the correct ports for some games on my Oracle instance, but that didn't help. My server is set up to use the port 443 by default.

Edit: I thought this was simply to do with the default port at first, but I haven't seen mentions of this anywhere else and this page suggests that what I'm having isn't normal. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Have you checked your UDP ports? Most games like this use UDP, so that's a good place to start.

Yes, I've checked that the 443 port is opened for TCP and UDP. I also opened the required ports for the games, though I'm pretty sure that shouldn't matter?
