Our corp was able to test these wormhole mechanics a few weeks ago. We found a system with a static C3, right before downtime. We closed the wormhole just before the servers went down. Obviously when the servers came back up the signature ID for the new static was a pre-downtime sig. We scanned down the new static and jumped through, observing that the signature on the other side of the wormhole was a post downtime one.

This ment that although the signature existed in the C2 before downtime, it did not exist in the C3. Thus when we scanned it down/warped to it, it was spawned in the C3 as a K162 wormhole.


There is a chance the system you entered was not yet "loaded" cause noone else had jumped in or logged on inside the system. So your warping to your fresh static caused the system on the other side to load, and cause of that the K162 you generated had a sig name as if it was there before DT (all sigs got named the moment you made the k162 to appear)

Just speculating in my explanation, but since i "know" how the K162 appearance mechanic works i had to find a (probably) valid explanation for both the mechanic and your experiment to be ok
