It's definitely a bug if the Aurora isn't exploding. I had the same issue once, and after I reloaded my game, it finally happened. Patience pays off!
Are you sure you didn鈥檛 miss it? The explosion happens around the three-day mark in Survival and Freedom modes.
Aurora not exploding? Congrats, you've just discovered the world's quietest disaster!
Hey there! The Aurora usually explodes within the first few in-game days. If it's not blowing up, you might wanna double-check your game settings and make sure you're not in Creative Mode, where story events like that don't happen.
