How to start playing alone\"Survival\"

Actually, the question in the title is

NOT a guide on how to get through, namely how to get into this mode if you are alone

. There is a mode selection in the terminal and then the selection of players begins, which now (naturally) are not there. Those. does this selection go on ad infinitum (or not?), does not find anyone and it turns out that there is no way to get into the mode?

Pysy: I understand that the topic is ancient, but maybe someone will answer. Thanks in advance if so
