How do I start a turned game?

Hello, I've tried to start a turned match with my friends, but since they can only join once the match has already started it is impossibble because the turned mode forces you to have more than 1 player in the lobby to start the game.
Anyone knows how to solve this?

@morpar use command zombie_minplayers 2 so the game won't start until 2 people (Including you) have join your match. Put that in the console before starting the match.

@Pistakilla That's what you do in a normal game, but in turned the Start match option is blocked until someone joins the lobby. That's my problem: start the match while being the only one in the lobby so my friends can join using the command.

You have two options:

1 Create a dedicated server by following this guide:

and then set zombies_minplayers to the expected amount of players. Hosting a server has the advantage of automatic map rotation and server plugins.

2 Type xpartygo into the console after setting zombies_minplayers to the expected amount of players. This will force the game to start regardless of players in the lobby and is also the easiest.
