    Would it be possible and wise to use Relay together with dedicated game servers running on Multiplay so that the servers communicate with Relay via UPD/TCP and the clients communicate with Relay via WSS?

    I am considering this as a solution for not being able to connect to a dynamic ip and not a domain name from WebGL using WSS.

    Yes! That would work. Currently it's even our recommended solution if you want WebGL clients to connect securely to a dedicated server running on Multiplay. We're aware that this is not ideal however (ideally Multiplay would provide certificates that can be used to create secure servers), but until there's a better solution in place, your best bet is to use Relay.

    In case anyone is wondering we implemented this. It was easy to implement and it works well. We use Lobby for sharing the join code. Thanks again @simon-lemay-unity .
