Definitely. I noticed that too. However I also seem to get it without thunderstorms, and the flickering gets really bad after a while. But it tends to start underground for me as well, then when it eventually gets bad enough it's intense and nonstop flickering below and above ground.

Ah, that explains it! Thank you. I am playing through Proton yes, it seems to work a lot better for me. Without it I'd get a very annoying white, flickering light on my tools and weapons that made it unplayable. That seemed to be the only noticeable difference for me.

I'm stupid! I could've just searched for the save name through the terminal. For anyone as new as I am to Linux with the same issue, the saves location was /home/t/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/compatdata/251570/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/7DaysToDie/Saves Told you it was long! And how I found it was with locate --basename '\220503' (220503 being the name of the save, so you'd have to change that bit). Thank you dude. It seems to be the same location that I found through Steam which for some reason wasn't the correct one for me, but I found it! Typical to always find the solution shortly after writing a post, but hopefully it can help someone else in the future.

Thank you anyway! I actually did try to open the save folder through Steam earlier, which would've worked if the location was the same as it seems to be for the majority when I google. Unfortunately I seem to have it hidden somewhere deeper, lol. No idea why, either.

Hi, Googled and everywhere it says the save location is ~/.local/share/7DaysToDie, but that's not the case for me. I do remember finding it a while ago. Unfortunately I seem to have lost the notes where I typed the exact save location for next time, since it was a lot more directories to go through than the one most people seem to suggest online. I have tried to look through a lot of different directories several times, but it's nowhere to be found. Does anyone have an idea of where it could be located? Thanks
