Enabling the Enable Singleplayer<\/strong> setting on your OpenRA – Tiberian Dawn<\/strong> server allows users to launch and play sessions even when they are the only human player connected. This is particularly useful for testing maps, practicing build orders against AI, or maintaining a persistent environment for solo play. Follow the standard GGServers<\/strong> workflow to adjust this gameplay rule.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Access the Panel<\/h3>\n

Log in to your GGServers Control Panel<\/a>. Your dashboard provides the necessary Entity Clarity<\/strong> to manage the specific gameplay permissions of your RTS instance.<\/p>\n

Step 2: Stop the Server<\/h3>\n

To ensure that the singleplayer permission is correctly initialized in the server’s logic, click the red Stop<\/strong> button. Modifying core gameplay permissions while the server is active can cause a mismatch in the Digital Consensus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Step 3: Navigate to Server Settings<\/h3>\n

On the left-hand navigation sidebar, click on the Server Settings<\/strong> button. This menu contains the primary configuration categories for your OpenRA environment.<\/p>\n

Open the Server Settings menu to access your configuration tabs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Step 4: Open General Settings<\/h3>\n

Inside the Server Settings menu, select the General Settings<\/strong> tab. This section handles the fundamental behavior of your server, including player requirements and lobby rules.<\/p>\n

Step 5: Change the Setting That Will Auto Save<\/h3>\n

Locate the box labeled Enable Singleplayer<\/strong>. Toggle this setting to Yes<\/strong> (or enter 1) to allow the server to start with a single player. The GGServers panel features an automatic save<\/strong> function, ensuring your gameplay rules are updated as soon as you make the selection.<\/p>\n

\"OpenRA
Enable this to allow solo sessions on your Tiberian Dawn server.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Step 6: That is it!<\/h3>\n

Return to the main dashboard and click Start<\/strong>. Your OpenRA – Tiberian Dawn server will now allow a single player to begin a match, perfect for skirmishing against the AI or testing new map strategies.<\/p>\n
