For the third time in 2 weeks:
I had a scanned and bookmarked signature of a C3 Wormhole… all things scanned inside, etc…
Went to sleep, returned (actually after DT) and when re-entering system where said signature was, I see it on the probe panel. I right-click in space, warp to my BM (directly on the wh itself and not on signature, so i land at 0) and splashed the wh… Its a different system… a different C3… another J-sigg…
How can this be?.. if a new signature would spawn with same #ID i would still have to scan it cause it would be in a different place in system… if even miraculously the signature spot is the same, my bookmark is not on signature, its on the wh itself, and I have this wormhole Bookmarked…
Does anyone ‘relate’ to this issue? what sort of bug is this? Did it happened to any of you?
Its the third time it happens to me, first time i doubted myself, second time i thought something should be wrong, but now i’m positive…
hahaa… i once (after a long wait) decided to roll alone the “never ending” static, that was leading to a completely dead wh… new static that spawned, was to the same system …
this is normal and has happened since I started playing in 2006
at least once every 1-2 weeks I will find a STATIC that should be dead the next day but it is there in the same spot with no End Of Life open to a different system.
you will see more of these the more you scan. its probably part of the system design and not a glitch
if it is a glitch since CCP wont say, think of it when NEO sees the Black Cat in Dejavuu
may not have spealt that correctly
This issue happens when a wormhole has it’s end of life close to downtime. If it despawns during downtime, it behaves like it has collapsed and a new static opens, using the same signature name and position, but leading to a new system.
