Is it possible to configure SSL in arena.config.ts?

If not, what's the recommended way of doing it? It seems like I can create a new secure server in initializeTransport but I don't have a reference to the existing app so I end up having to create a new one that ignores everything configured in initializeExpress. That seems a little clumsy.

By the way, I know SSL is usually terminated at a web server like nginx but I may have some unique requirements that could require Colyseus/Express to do it.

Hi @cort1c, that's not currently possible if you're using the @colyseus/tools package, as it internally uses http.createServer for the express layer:

colyseus/packages/tools/src/index.ts

Lines 159 to 160 in 49b010b

	let app: express.Express | undefined = express();
	let server = http.createServer(app);

To use terminate SSL at the Node.js layer you'd need to use https.createServer() and provide the certificates. Right now you can only do this by not using the @colyseus/tools package and initializing the Colyseus Server manually.

That's what I suspected but thanks for confirming.
