Start local games paused and control shared worlds

Understand local start-paused behavior and shared-world controls.

Browser-local play starts paused so the player can orient before simulation time advances. The player presses Continue to begin. This is a local player behavior; a cartridge does not need a special flag.

To offer shared hosted worlds, enable them in the starter’s page settings:

TS
page: {
// Keep the other page settings.
sharedWorlds: true,
}

In a shared world, the owner can pause or resume the whole simulation from the player controls. Each participant can also choose Hold my orders or Release my orders. A personal hold stops that participant’s new orders; the shared simulation and other participants continue running. The hold survives reconnects.
