Has anyone set up Nakama on on DigitalOcean and somehow gotten the SSL to work via their load balancers?

I’m completely stuck on how i am supposed to do this.

I either get a 400 error or a 503 error depending on how i configure the load balancer.

I guess all i need to know if how can I set up the load balancer correctly, and do I need to make any changes to the Nakama settings somehow, and if so, how can I do that.

Hey!  
I use the same settings and It works for me, Nakama Docker on a Droplet that is configured over a Load Balancer to do SSL.  
here is the configuration:

And I just point an A Domain to the Load Balancer IP
