Patch 91.18 — Server Hotfix

Patch 91.18 server hotfix for Tides of Fortune — Bounty Board contract fixes after server restart, Aberrant creature filtering, Summer Bash Kairuku overspawn correction.

Patch Overview

Server v91.18 deployed July 14, 2026 as a minor server-side hotfix. No client download was required — fixes applied automatically on official and private servers running the current server branch. This patch addresses progression-blocking bugs in harbor economy systems and Summer Bash event stability.

For Tides of Fortune owners, the Bounty Board fixes are the highest-impact changes. Tribes relying on Bounty Board contracts for Hexagon income and milestone overlap experienced contract completion failures after server restarts — now resolved.

Bounty Board Fixes (Tides of Fortune)

Fixed inability to complete Bounty Board contracts after server restart. Previously, tribes accepting contracts before a scheduled restart could not turn them in afterward, wasting voyage time and blocking Hexagon income. Server v91.18 restores normal contract lifecycle behavior across restart cycles.

Bounty Board contracts no longer request Aberrant creatures on maps without Aberrant spawns. Contract generation now respects map-specific creature whitelists more accurately — reducing impossible hunt targets on servers running Genesis Part 1 or limited creature pools.

These fixes complement Patch 91.6's Bounty Board map-specific creature whitelisting improvements. Together, v91.6 and v91.18 significantly improve contract relevance and reliability for Merchant builds running harbor economy loops.

Summer Bash and General Fixes

Fixed overspawning of Slidy 'N Slippery Kairuku on The Center during Summer Bash 2026. Event creature population now stays within intended spawn limits, improving Popsicle farming consistency for players hunting summer event creatures.

Retroactive fix for lost Dragontopia Umbra skill points when mindwipe was used during a period when the skill system was not functioning correctly. Tides of Fortune players unaffected unless they also own Dragontopia.

General exploit patch included. No Tides of Fortune ship, cannon, or treasure system changes in this server hotfix.

What This Means for Captains

If you paused Bounty Board usage due to restart bugs, resume contract acceptance immediately — the fix is live on updated servers. Pair Bounty Board pickups with Ocean Outpost raids and treasure routes for maximum Hexagon and milestone overlap.

Summer Bash runs through August 5, 2026. With nearly two and a half weeks remaining as of July 20, prioritize 2× taming for Tidepup and Parrot. See our Summer Bash guide.

The next major Tides of Fortune content update is the Galleon with the final Astraeos update — 300+ structures and up to 4× placement limits on all ship classes. Bookmark our CC515 breakdown and updates hub.
