hi, i have constant tunneling enabled and all steam services are setup for split-tunneling(not to be in tunnel), yet it apparently somehow fails to start/connect to smth in localhost? if i pause my tunneling it manages to do the thing/connect/etc and i just start tunneling after.
console log in attach.
 
well issue repeats the very next time u'll be moving back to "the hideout"
the issue is: it fails to start a localhost due to tunnel running, hence it's failing to host a "lobby" for "the hideout" so you're stuck in loading screen.
 
you can temporary disable tunneling for it to host a localhost lobby each time u need to go to "the hideout" as a workaround.
 
i wonder if it' possible to have game in legacy mode for previous menu mode, cause its the only thing that's locks me out, everything else seems to be working just fine, i can connect to lobbies/games/party hideouts without an issue cause my setup specifically avoids tunneling any games
 

VPN Split Tunneling Fix​

From another forum post, I found this fix, but made a quick guide on what to do if you're having this issue. In split tunneling, it will always hang on lobby launch. If you use the console commands to enable cheats, then restart, it will load into it while using split tunneling. Easier than restarting your VPN, but still a pain.

I have tested this with split tunneling on both Proton and Nord, not sure about Mullvad.

Steps to fix infinite loading screen while split tunneling:
1. Wait until you're at the forever black loading screen
2. Hit 'F7' to open up the console commands
3. Type in the following: sv_cheats 1 ; restart
4. Hit enter to execute the command
5. Voila, you will have loaded into the lobby with split tunneling enabled still!

How to setup alias for a quicker command to fix this.

I have an alias command to both enable the cheats and then restart if I just type 'rs' in the console and hit enter. More info on how to set this up below via the GitHub link. Edit: added another line below my initial alias to make F9 be the only key you need to hit when loading in. Thanks Vuuuuvs <3
alias "rs" "sv_cheats 1 ; restart"
bind "F9" "rs"

many thanks for the info :D
I bound it to F9 so I don't have to open the console every time:
alias "rs" "sv_cheats 1 ; restart"
bind "F9" "rs"

great Idea! I'll make sure to edit this to include the even easier shortcut.
Since it's kinda annoying to spam F9 at the end of matches, I bodged this alias instead:
alias "rs" "sv_cheats 1 ; restart"
alias "retry" "rs; wait 200"
alias "again" "retry;retry;retry;retry;retry;retry;retry;retry"
bind "F9" "again"
