## About The Pull Request
The only time people were added to the ambience SS's list is when you
log in, meaning if you toggle the preference on/off mid game, it does
nothing.
Fixes#61495

disable ambience
qol: Added descriptions differentiating "Ship ambience" from "ambience"

## Why It's Good For The Game
Cleans up some vestigial code
## Changelog
EDIT: Not player-facing.
Basically, every time we made a new client interface, we would add it to
`GLOB.directory` (new behavior introduced in (#79348
(88bb3afcce)).
This would mean that we would pass in junk mock clients into the vote
processing feature instead of actual legitimate clients, as well as a
slew of unintended consequences elsewhere wherever we access
`GLOB.directory`.
We would create mock clients in stuff like
`randomize_human_appearance()`, which is legitimately used and called in
a slew of places where we want random humans, which allows junk to enter
in directory per the aforementioned point.
Anyways, let's just... not let's add it to the directory if we aren't
running unit tests. I also made the vote processing code a bit more
strict juuuuuuuust in case
## About The Pull Request
Mafia should now start without the need of admin intervention.
I made a unit test that should always have a PDA and a ghost spawning in
a game of Mafia and having it run through basic setup to confirm they
both successfully sign up and the game starts.
I had to change a lot of things in order to get this working, such as
giving unique ckeys to mock clients, fixing harddels in Mafia, and
plenty of minor fixes. This is the first time any of this code is put in
CI, so a lot of uncaught errors are now showing their faces.
Because loading maps mid-round runtimes due to smoothing, I have mafia
their own unit test-only map that doesn't use smoothing.
I also split the mafia ui code into its own file, and moved a single
helper that was sitting around in mafia's file into a helpers file.
I also added some comments to explain why certain things are the way
they are, because I wrote some undocumented code previously and forgot a
few things, leading to self-inflicted wasted time.

## About The Pull Request
Adds a new datum, which is intended to be a replacement for the stock
savefile type, json_savefile
As you can imagine, this is essentially just a wrapper around a json
file for reading/writing/manipulation that is intended to be a dropin
replacement for savefiles
It also have the ability to import stock savefiles and parse them into a
json tree

About The Pull Request
Dynamic 2021, among much other things, splits the threat level into two separate budgets, one for round start and one for midround/latejoin. You can read the design doc, plus methodology and charts here: https://hackmd.io/@tgstation/S1C4dYJkO.
To server owners: this is incompatible with current dynamic.json configurations. This is not just because some fields have different values now, but because the older values are not balanced towards this system.
Inidividual list of changes (as I remember them):
Threat level is now split into two separate budgets, one for round start and one for midround/latejoin.
In TESTING, you can now run dynamic simulations to see the roundstart picks.
antag_cap is now based on an equation rather than a fixed list of antags per indice--the old system is not scalable. You can now pass it either a number for a fixed constant, or a list with "denominator" and an optional "offset" to fit the equation ceil(x / denominator) + offset, with x being population.
Midround/latejoin timers are now vars on /datum/game_mode/dynamic itself, and thus can be configured by head admins per server.
Removes some older, as far as I can tell completely unused admin tools relating to dynamic.
autotraitor_cooldown is now properly respected from config, and is based on an exact time rather than on ticks (450 used to be 15 minutes, now it's just 15 MINUTES).
The rulesets dynamic chooses are now in a dynamic.json file in round logs. Relies on tgstation/tgstation13.org#64 to be public.
Adds more logging to the autotraitor ruleset for admins.
Midround/latejoin chance modifiers are now configurable.
Labelled "Do Not Merge", as the design doc outlines the specific playtesting schedule I would like to perform.
Note to self: Remove the custom MOTD before merge.
Why It's Good For The Game
(Copied from design doc)
Dynamic currently dumps as much threat as it can into round start threats. This means that rounds at ~50 threat can have an absurd amount of antagonists round start, while leaving very little threat for midround/latejoin antagonists. What inevitably happens is just one of those picked decides to murderbone, leading to the inevitable 20 minute shuttle call. Furthermore, once those antagonists are dead, Dynamic doesn’t have any threat left to spend on new antagonists that keep the round flowing, promoting the mentality of “antags dead, I’m bored, let’s leave”.
The proposed solution of Dynamic 2021 is to split threat level into two separate budgets, one for round start and one for midround/latejoin. This split, like threat level, will also be done on a lorentz curve–meaning that while most rounds will have them evenly split, there is still the possibility of chaotic high antagonist round start rounds, or the possibility of a midround onslaught.
