I think I broke my playthrough
Possible spoilers:
I am at the part where I got a pass from the Captain in Wyndham Village to freely enter the Protocol Camp in Skethermoor. I entered the area without issue and found a bunker, just as I was entering the bunker someone called out giving me a warning, I then explored the bunker without being seen, then exited, as I exited immediately I was fired upon by a team of protocol troops, I went back into the bunker just as an instant reaction. At this point I knew I had messed up... there are only 3 quick game slots and loading into an area takes up 1... I could no longer go back to before I was spotted on first entry to the bunker.

I tried going back to the Captian in Wyndham, he says you are free to go to the protocol camp, but the moment I approach everything fires at me.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? my only hard save is from 4 hours before :(

Nope, you're screwed. Even if he Captain gives you permission to enter the Protocol Camp, once you enter the Interchange bunker the whole area becomes hostile again.
Or did you enter another bunker? You should be able to enter those and kill everyone and the overworld people will still be neutral.

I was spotted entering the Protocol Field Station near the Ruined Hamlet, the entrance is a Trespass zone. Seems I really did break it then

Oh yeah if they see you enter then they'll also turn hostile. But as long as no one sees you enter an area, you can kill everyone inside and if you leave they won't turn hostile.

Good to know, thanks :) I may wait for a fix

There's nothing to fix unfortunately. it's working as intended. Your only real option is to kill everyone on that map. It's hard but not impossible.

Best tip I can give for this game is to constantly make hard saves.

Oh man I'm in this position......whole map is hostile. Really ? I'm 15 hrs in and dont have a single Wyndham save as I've been all over since.

It's not that bad, I killed everyone on that map. You can go around the north and approach the prison from that side and miss most of the soldiers. You will however need to fight everyone inside the prison but there aren't that many enemies

same happend to me not sure if its because I talked to the Dr and reported back that he removed my pass or somthing but I allways make sure Im not seen sneaking in or out of areas
Do the turrets shoot you if you are given permission or is this just me?

So if Captain Simms gives you access to the Protocol camp the turrets won't shoot you. The one at the interchange entrance will however as you don't get access to that just yet.
Note the pass only applies to the Protocol camp and the prison. Everywhere else, including the Protocol bunker at the workshop, they'll be hostile (though the rest of Protocol won't care if you kill them). Only way to invalidate the pass is to start killing Protocol in the camp or prison, go through the Interchange entrance in the middle of their camp, or trigger a prison break.

Not that turning Protocol hostile is much of an issue; they're the best source of guns and ammo in the game.
Welp.... i guess it's fo76 when i killed mr house without doing any of his quest line... all over for me then... I have no idea who this captain guy is... I was just exploring. Found the village via secret tunnel. Found all the tools. And the found the interchange... did all the robot section. And went to leave because I needed skill or gas mask or whatever(not sure still playing) to enter spore area. Went to the village and they attack me... reloaded and went to the village via the tunnel because last time they didn't attack me... they still attack. Even the villagers..

what secret tunnel did you take to the village? Just go in the front gate. If they see you in any restricted area they are all going to turn hostile.
the interchange foyer space (inside) is fully hostile, even after getting the double secret permissions. if you make it to the stairs, it flips back to not hostile, but you might get chased by some idiots.

That's definitely a bug because you're meant to be there and nothing is meant to be hostile anymore.

There's two options for that, one in the village that requires you first do Medical, and one in the woods that you can do at any point.
