For single player, leave remote players at zero.
To start a multiplayer game, set remote players to be the number of opponents you're expecting, then hit A/start. To join an existing game, choose choice existing game. All players must have connection saved to the WFC settings (with Mario Kart DS or any other official wifi game).

Known issues
Game may crash occasionally while obtaining an IP address - so when you get a red screen before game starts, it is advised to try again.
At the present, the multiplayer server is windows-only (and only supports one game at a time).
There's a bug that'll let you get free colonists. It was not fixed for testing purposes.
