Dark base glitch. WHO TURNED OFF THE LIGHTS?
Every time I leave my base, I come back to very dark inside even when I have power. The only thing that fixes it is if I start to deconstruct something attached to a wall, and the lights snap back on. When I reconstruct what I had started deconstructing.

Just me or known issue?

Hi I have the same issue. Even the Base is fully powered around 300 at the moment, when I came in it is dark, even the computer is welcoming me. When I construct something, the light turned one, but after a while walking in, it turn dark again. It is quite annoying. I have 3 solar panels and one bio reactor, all working fine. Do not understand what switch off the light. Bug probably? I will appreciate any comment or help. Thanks Cheers, J.

Same thing happens to me. Game runs fine on normal graphics., save for the lights in my base turning off.

Its a known bug in OS X machines. It happens since the graphic O2 update.

It has been reported lots and lots of times, and Devs are ignoring it. Don't expect this to be fixed anytime soon.

I have the same problem. However, if I close the door between the moon-pool and the rest of the base, the lights turn on, the base tells me the base has been repaired and it is removing the flooding. There is of course no flooding, and I've inspected the entire base and found no damage. I conclude that there is a minor bug in the game. Still the best game ever.

I also had this glitch, but after I restarted my computer the light was back on. Might work.
