Vulture of the Future, test server

[Errant-4]

Description

As per the November 23 maintainer meeting, the following needs to be done for the test server

• There must be multiple clear indications in the lobby that it's a test server
• Bug report feature from ingame? (This should honestly be on every server)
• Copy the publish workflow and make it publish master daily
• configure master branch on RobustCDN?
• configure Vulture watchdog to use the master branch

[Errant-4]

Apparently only the first two are real issues and everything else should be a simple chore.

We can already give the server a Message of the Day that will be displayed in chat when the player enters the lobby

#33783 will also allows us to put TEST SERVER (or any other similar messaging) in the lobby title

Will it be LRP or MRP, and will it be whitelisted or open to anybody?

[Errant-4]

I don't think anything has been suggested beyond just changing Vulture to run on the master branch, so it would be LRP and it would not be whitelisted

Based.

For a test server I often see a banner being added to the client that says stuff like "THIS IS A TEST CLIENT" etc. Could be dismissable?

What would this look like, can you show a sketch? The advantage of the stuff I have shown is that it's already possible or is in PR

What if the commit hash was in the corner of the screen, near FPS?
