Where's the Distress Signal Zone Bunker/Thorough Investigation Achievement? (Spoilers)
Trying to figure this out. Find a small dungeon on a world called Distress Signal Zone. As part of the zone I've dealt with the ambush and I believe achieved successes on all the skill checks and have investigated the transmitter then destroyed it with a demolitions check. Doing so gave a clue that there's a bunker nearby that might also be apart of his trap, and Heinrix also says we should investigate further.

But for the life of me I can't seem to find any way to access this bunker, not even going back to the ship to see if it was a different landing zone. Looking online seems to reveal there's an Achievement Called Thorough Investigation that's related to this bunker, but no information on finding it.

Do I need to return with one of the Eldar companions to discover it, or am I just missing something obvious/its bugged?

Once you do the last check on the blown up transmitter the ice wall behind the turrets is the entrance, across a small bridge behind 2 turrets. Demo check needed.

Yeah, for whatever reason that Demo check isn't appearing.
Alright, reloading a slightly earlier save and checking it out seemed to have finally caused the prompt to appear. Maybe Cassia just failed that 70% awareness test constantly or something, but it was certainly weird.

Maybe you need more Awareness, think there was a check there.

Yeah the hidden wall can only be detected after you blow up the transmitter.

So I had this same problem and apparently the issue is that your character needs to get RIGHT next to the ice wall in order to activate the awareness check. I found that clicking behind the turret on the left did it, but if that doesn't work try selecting just the character with the highest awareness and manually having them hump the wall till you find it.

Second playthrough and not even Toybox could get me to detect that hidden passage behind the ice.
Try loading an earlier save like I did (I loaded a quick save after the demolition that worked). I'm guessing some sort of trigger might glitch out and lock you out?

I had my team dry humping that ice wall that looked quite obviously like the entrance (since its so smooth... and flat), and couldn't see it at first. It was only when I reloaded an earlier save that Cassia spotted it instantly.

Going to leave this here in case anyone else is stuck wondering why the wall is doing nothing: The awareness test is ON THE TRANSMITTER YOU JUST BLEW UP. Succeed that, then you can demo the wall

Actually u can teleport to this bunker. Toybox - search "n pick - areas - area CR28 - EE_AncientTrap ( second in table) - done.
Or can try Bag of tricks - common - Reset Interactables.

I have same bug and 1 option help me to enter bunker and get items + achiv.
I feel like hidden door awareness checks seem pretty buggy. There were two in Eufratus II that I just could not see no matter how much wall humping I did (one of which I found once but had to reload to before then, lol).

i think the game doesn't tell you when you fail an awareness check. So if you've failed the check, no amount of wall humping is going to work.

I also have the same problem. The door didn't show up after blowing the transmitter in Act II, so I thought maybe I have to visit back later. After coming back in Act IV it still didn't trigger. These kind of bugs are so annoying and I wanna stop playing this game already. Rushing to the ending now.

on my first playthrough I thought the same, but on my second I noticed the big, flat icewall and pushed my party up against it to reveal the bunker.
