My base went dark. Any ideas why?

So, I've been building my initial base for a little while now, and I was just in the process of expanding. At some point, the lights seemed to get noticeably dimmer all over the base.

I'm pretty sure it's not related to power. I have oxygen, the base isn't complaining about anything, and I've got several solar panels and even built a functional Bio Reactor.

I think it might be a glitch, because when I built the Bio Reactor, the lights suddenly came back to life for maybe a second, then went dim again. I've tried exiting and reloading, but that didn't help.

Am I missing something?

    What does the power meter up top say? I'm thinking this is a glitch, if it's saying you have plenty of power - if not then that's another glitch: There's times when the base will say you have 0 Power and thus the lights go out, but it'll still produce oxygen.

    The meter is full. 900/900.

    I'm stumped then; but all the machines are functional and oxygen's working, so it's not fatal... Just weird. Hopefully it'll be fixed though!

    Well, it had something to do with the size of the base. I ended up removing all of the new additions and that solved the problem. So...still a glitch or some kind of new feature?

    After a "flood", the base will go dark until you fuck around with it a bunch by removing reinforcements and putting them back and a bunch of other bs. Just mess around with it until the hull integrity is restored again.
