What to study
The single-player counterpart to the multiplayer lobby: same panel chrome, different contract. The host row pairs with an A.I. row carrying its own difficulty dropdown (Intermediate), and the right pane swaps match options for a map card — Migration, a generated micro map for at most 2 players, with its island preview and biome line. It shows how the setup screen adapts its right pane to the mode instead of building a second screen. Frame at about 0:48 in the Season 5 - Launch Trailer (Steam).
