Hey. We have been trying the wormhole relic site with friend. He done the fighting, and sometimes jumped out to refill shield, it all worked up to last ship in 3/4 wave... After warping away (while i stayed at site cloaked) the site disapeared on my eyes...

Are there some mechanics with despawning i dont know about?

To my knowledge you can't stay cloaked in the site to keep it from despawning, it'll just treat it as if you aren't there at all.

This. That mechanic was changed quite some time ago, and affects any "dungeon": missions, anomalies, relics and data sites, all of them will despawn when (sufficiently) completed regardless of any cloakies present.

But relic/data sites don't despawn unless all containers have been hacked... or am I missing something?

To be more accurate, if there is 1 or more EMPTY container to hack after hacking the other one, the site will despawn (saw that one time).

Only explanation I see for OP, is that the site have come to an end and you can't do nothing about it Sad

So it have some clock running down from the moment first ship arrives there? I havent touched any containers yet - waited for my buddy to finish the guard waves.

I've had the same thing. A relic site spawned in my home W-space system. I kill the NPCs in one ship. Loot/salvage in another. Warp away to grab my ship with a relic analyser. Come back to find the site has despawned with all the relic containers untouched.

That's the only relic site I've seen in W-space. Data sites I can switch ships with no trouble.

Perhaps loot containers from the salvage are counting, otherwise someone had warped to your site afew days ago and started the timer.

We havent touched no loot whatsoever. He was just fighting guards wave after wave and i was cloaked, waiting.
Kinda sucks, cause it took a while... Would suck if same thing would happen again when he warps away to recharge shield at the last wave/in middle of waves. Thats why im looking for some possible reasons... i wont believe it was such a bad luck that some very long timer was triggered long time ago and it ended when we were at last wave... It must be related to warping away for a while, but how exactly? He did this warping out few times, and they havent disapeared untill the last time...

Found that Relic and Data sites will despawn the moment you have left the grid (or cloaked up) with all the Sleepers killed, doesnt matter whether the cans are hacked or not.

In that case did he or someone else already attempt to hack the site.

In my case the relic site was new that day and the icons for each container showed that they were untouched.

I'll just take a second person along then. Someone to help kill the sleepers and then sit around in the site while I get my hacking ship.

This has also been my experience
