Happy holidays!

This update fixes some regressions in legacy gamemodes. During our transition to a new gamemode system some old stuff has broken. In the future old gamemodes (bunnyhop & tricksurf) will be rewritten from scratch onto the new system, but in the meantime, we would like to keep them properly functional.

• Fixed Tricksurf hud not displaying properly
  
• Fixed Tricksurf whop not working
  
• Fixed Tricksurf trick tracker not working properly
  
• Fixed Tricksurf tricks not registering
  
• Improved display of tracked Tricksurf trick triggers
  
• Fixed Bunnyhop hud not working when you join somebody else's game
