### Setting up a quick game in "SINGLEPLAY"&#x20;

This option offers a limited experience — you won’t be able to adjust settings like ticket ratio, team ratio, round time, friendly fire, or spawn time.

Once your game is [OpenSpy-ready](/getting-started/apply-openspy-patches.md), the customization screen will work properly, and all unlocks will be available in-game.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Select <mark style="color:blue;">SINGLEPLAY</mark>.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Configure your game settings and click <mark style="color:blue;">START PLAYLIST</mark>.

Check out the [Server Settings](/advanced/addons-tweaks/server-settings.md) guide for details on extra cutomization settings.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### **Setting up a LAN server in "MULTIPLAY"**

This option lets you adjust game settings such as ticket ratio, team ratio, round time, friendly fire, spawn time, and more.

Once your game is [OpenSpy-ready](/getting-started/apply-openspy-patches.md), the customization screen will work properly, and all unlocks will be available in-game.

<summary>"The game will start when 1 more player(s) join"</summary>

To fix this, you need to apply this setting:

```batch
sv.numPlayersNeededToStart 1
```

Check out the [Server Settings](/advanced/addons-tweaks/server-settings.md) guide for instructions on how to do this.
