> If the OpenTTD folks are reading this: this is not true. You can assign public IP addresses to your t4g instances by using a public subnet in the VPC they are deployed to. They will correctly reach WAN addresses via their public interface and you will not need a NAT gateway.
Ah, but putting an EC2 in a public subnet is not "The Way"!
We've let AWS convince us to not put instances in public subnets so that they can make money hand-over-fist on NAT Gateways, which are WAY too expensive for what they are and do.
