Universal Gaming Cards System Updated

[Moonface]

Thanks to an update to the awards system that we use, our Universal Gaming Cards feature now gives you the ability to select which three cards display in your profile by yourself!

To do this, go to User CP >> Manage Awards, and then tick the checkboxes on the three cards you want displayed. In the event more than three cards are checked, only three will be displayed on your posts and profile, which I believe will be chosen based on the ordering in which those checked cards appear in your awards management page.

Cards will not display based on the order in which you select them. To change the order in which your cards are shown, use the Display Order feature to change their numbering.

Now because of the way the system works, every card you own will currently be checked and have a Display Order of 0. You can either deselect every card and then pick the three you want, or just find the three you want and assign them with numbers. However, because the default number is 0, you will need to change every other card to be at least a 3 to have your chosen three turn up first, assuming you number them 0, 1, and 2. Furthermore, every time you receive a new card, it will automatically be selected and given a Display Order value of 0, so you will need to deselect the new card so that it doesn't interfere with the display of your chosen three.

Everyone should have every card they have ever earned attached to their profile, but if anyone does notice something missing or extra then let me know and I'll fix it.

Alternatively, if the majority here decide that they preferred the old method of asking me to place cards into their profile, then we can go back to that method instead. I should've really asked everyone for their input on what approach to take beforehand so I didn't spend the last two hours going through the entire card catalogue, but ah well.

Ahh how fun that was doing that with a touchpad, I should've used my mouse to sort that out quicker but got it done eventually. Decided on putting a Shiny in instead of Smash this time.
