Portal editor playercounts issue - Required players to start cannot be 1

Platform: PC (Steam). Experience edited in Chrome.

Issue: With the following portal settings, I aimed to create an experience where I can load into a lobby by myself and just explore the map and try out vehicles, a personal testing server if you will. I set the 'human players per team' to 1 and disabled bots.

I can confirm that I have saved the experience and hosted it after it has saved.

What actually happens: As seen in the below screenshot, I cannot play without another person joining. This behaviour wasn't present in 2042 and you could load up a server with just a single person. Here it requires I wait for a second person, who won't turn up.

Additionally, it still says '32 players required' on the UI element, and I'm not sure which value to trust.
