Jeremiah's bunker
Ok I found the place he was talking about, took his damn letters and then I got stuck inside for many days and died from thirst. The hatch seemed to be open and the ladder was down but the character kept saying that it's closed and he should restore power. There was no way to start a fire to get some water. For over a week I survived here, checking every night for the aurora to power up the hatch but it never happened. Now my save files are ruined.
I start inside the locked bunker on the last checkpoint every time and there is no way for me to get out of here. Unless there is some kind of random in aurora happening and it can suddenly pop out the next night. Or is there something I missed?

And its known that the only source of power is the aurora? Im not that far yet, but is it possible there is a generator or something, im not sure of the details of how power works now.

There should be a power breaker in the bunker in the room where the bed is. When I turned it, the sparks from the wires stopped and that allowed me to exit.

I have the opposite of your problem, im still outside of the damn thing after 12 days and 12 nights without auroras. It takes so long. I feel like im just wasting ressources

Are you saying that you turned it off? Because I haven't seen any sparks. It was always on for me.

The sparks were off whilst the aurora was present.

I've got sparks in the hallway as I write. Trying to figure out how to get past them to get to the back of the bunker without dying... which is what has happened each time I've tried to walk past so far. No light switches in the front of the bunker appear to be interactive.

Could you take screenshots of the inside of the bunker you are in? Because as I stated before, that unless some glitch is happening, there should be a breaker/crank of some sorts which "restores power" if I remember correctly, which turned the sparks off and allowed me to make my exit. :3

You are correct, there is a breaker, but it's on the wall on the back side of the bunker, away from the ladder. You have to first get past the sparking lines - which can kill you - in order to get to the breaker panel. After a few deaths I figured out how to get back to it without dying.

I'm still outside waiting for the aurora to show up. Been so long lost track of the days.
