The lobby system like you have it in Multiplayer isn't available in Singleplayer. However, you can make individual units playable and at the most basic level tell players to presss U (I think that was it). This opens unit selection in singleplayer, where they'll be able to choose individual units. Of course there's more advanced options like making a custom GUI that pops up allowing players to choose a unit, but why reinvent the wheel when it's already available?

It is for a mode/mission I was planning for the make single player arma not war contests, while I need a lot of traditional MP functionality for my mission wouldn't it work as a MP mission. But I think I shall make my own GUI, I would need that too select other options at game start up anyway.
