In the '''game lobby screen''' you will set up your single and multiplayer races. Here you can choose your car, including it's [[Skin Tutorial|skin]] and setup, the track and set up how long you want to race.

Let’s examine the buttons you can access and their usage. You can see a skill level button labeled pro with an arrow at each end, this button controls the level of intelligence for the AI (Artificial Intelligence) clicking on the left arrow lowers the value, the right increases the value, newbie is the lowest value and starting point, pro is the highest level.

The next button under the skill level is the add AI button, this adds a robot car to LFS ready to race against you, against another AI car or the clock. Up to 12 (Demo) or 32 (S3/S2/S1 only) AI can race at the same time (or 11 AI + you, and 31 AI + you). AI racing is fun and a great way to learn the tracks, racing lines etc., AI can consist of different cars against each other, due to similar outputs and abilities many LFS racers have pitted the [[XF GTI|GTi]] against the [[XR GT|GT]] and close racing & great spectator fun has always ensued.

The join race button is self explanatory; this allows you to add your car, manned by you and join in the fun. Looking now to the group of buttons to the right of the screen, we see that the next button is called the player button.
