      I successfully setup a IPsec vpn using this guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GrWSnKnwgU with:

      SiteA
      LAN 10.0.0.1
      Lan 2
      Lan 3

      SiteB
      Lan1
      Lan 2 192.168.2.1
      Lan 3

      I want incoming connections on siteA:766
      to be port forwarded to 192.168.2.100:766 over the ipsec tunnel

      preferably i also want Lan 3 and lan 1 also be able to access
      10.0.0.1 without adding extra ipsec configuration but using
      outbound NAT


      it's been very hard to set this up and and im stuck, i tried so many things
      any help will be highly appricate it

        Across a policy-based IPSec, this is only gonna to work if you either do masquerading on site B LAN2 with an outbound NAT rule or if you route the whole upstream traffic from B over A. The latter might not be desirable, I guess, the former has the drawback that you loose the information about the origin source IP.

        It would work without this limitations with any other kind of VPN: routed IPSec, OpenVPN, Wireguard

        preferably i also want Lan 3 and lan 1 also be able to access
        10.0.0.1 without adding extra ipsec configuration but using
        outbound NAT

        Just add a phase 2 for each subnet pair, you want to connect.
        LAN1 <> 10.0.0.0/24
        LAN3 <> 10.0.0.0/24
        Remember, that you have to add these p2 with exchanged local - remote networks.
