Hey! My server has been getting DDOSed for hours. I have turned on DDOS protection on my VPS but it wont protect the FiveM Game server. Is there any way i can trigger it for the game server also? On the VPS server page it says no DDOSes have been triggered but there are 100%. The packet loss drops to 30-40% at random moments and the game server crashes. Is there anything i can do?

If you receive any ddos, u will se an detailed Incomong DDoS in dashboard. No way that it doesnt record.

Well it doesn't. It can't be script related also, the server was down for like 10-15mins (saying it can't be started), then i got back in and in the next 5 minutes the server went down again with massive PL. (packetloss)

The port was 30106, will try to change it to 30000-32000 to see if it works.

Enable DDoS notifications if you have a vps

100% packet loss may occur due to active DDoS protection. I personally keep the DDoS protection mode on sensor. In case of an attack, you will see details on the dashboard and receive an email about it if you have toggled it.
There is no chance that an attack with the effect you have described will not be detected.

I had it on sensor mode. Could that be a reason for not detecting if it was on the wrong port?

The nature of DDoS protection doesn't just apply to a single port. It doesn't have to do with a "wrong port".

Weird, could it have been the host fault in someway?

Your server will be down for a couple of seconds and it will be back again personal experience is that Zap DDoS protection is not powerful

It depends on the weight of the attack. No technology in the world can stop any weight of DDoS attack.
My server never went down due to a DDoS attack

I just experienced it today I used zap vps for game servers anyway the same attack happened in other VPs but it didn't go down so I used different brand site VPs

As I mentioned before, it depends on the weight of the attack.
