There are 3 ways to play the mod in single player.
Option one: you can play as the "all" faction, which is enabled in the mod settings. The "all" faction can build any of the buildings.
Option two: you can play as a single faction with the inter-faction technologies enabled. Unlocking the inter-faction technologies enables access to the other faction technologies.
Option three: you can use the faction selection UI to jump between factions. UI can be enabled in mod settings.
