1.91-stable HotFix

This release corrects the bug introduced in the v312.27 patch with player profiles appearing blank in arkbot as well as includes the ark.json coordinate shift fix for the DLC version of Crystal Isles. Special thanks to Dia and Hsilamot for providing these fixes!

1.91 Stable

This is the latest stable build of ARK Bot.

Fixed Map Images on two maps

there was an error in the RC that accidentally included incorrect dimensioned map images for 2 maps, BC and Aberration. We have corrected the files in all upcoming releases but included here is the fix for existing releases that correct those images. Simply unpack into your ArkBot directory in Resources/MapImages replacing the existing files. You may need to clear the browser cache to see the corrected images. For those that missed the patch note for the RC, you can change the displayed map images in the webapp to whatever you like now as long as the map image name matches the title of the map. Thank You.
