No, if you do not want to run it as MP, you just do not check the choice, and OR will not open any port at all.

You have to do all of the following for your Open Rails to be accessible by other people:

- Enable the "Multiplayer" option.
- Ensure your public IP is listed in the options (by default it is not).
- Start in "Server" mode, not "Client".
- Allow Open Rails through your firewall.
- [If you have a router or NAT device] Forward the Open Rails port through your router or NAT device.

Those are all things required of any client-server mutliplayer (although some steps can be automated) - Open Rails is no different. The main thing missing right now is being able to password-protect your server, and this is something we'll certainly want to add.
