This allows scripts to differentiate between single- and multiplayer games, allowing to adapt to restrictions of multiplayer games.

The idea for this came up while debugging desyncs, since the lua sleep() command can lead to desyncs in multiplayer if not used properly (i.e., for all players at the same time).
