There is a bug at the moment where you jump in to one wh but when youjump back you end up in a different wormhole (sometimes one still connected to that womhole).

If this happens I could people please let me know here or in a mail.

Stuff that would really help.

Character name

date and time

the wh you started in.

the wh you jumped in to

the wh you ended up in when you jumped back.

if the last wh you jumped in to was connected to the chain

If you use siggy or tripwire or any scanning tool a pic of the chain is really handy.

If anything was happening at the time of this happening, eg was pvp happening, 6 people all jumped at once etc.


If you can let me know as soon as it happens (either asking me online sending a mail or asking for me in our public channel "no players barred") that would be even better.

Happened maybe a month and a half ago. Jumped the c2 hole, wound up in a shattered hole, warped to a bookmark in the shattered, warp back to the c2 hole, jumped it, wound up in some other hole. Warped around a bit more and a few holes were changing.

Didn't bother to report it though (thought it was more comical than anything else). I kept thinking that maybe I crit the hole or it timed bout, but visually it was stable.

I couldn't tell you where or when that was. I can confirm it has happened though.

Yaay!!!!

I don't know if this a related or intended issue, but it's been a staple for a while.

Let's just say we jump a ship (let's just use a geddon for times sake) in order to close a hole, and you happen to jump your static hole (non K162 hole) into your static. Unfortunately you miscalculated the mass on the hole and you close it behind you. We've found that sometimes this would result in you loading grid not where the previous return hole location would have been.

Most common places for loading grid would be either the star at 0 or the warpin spot for your static's static hole.

Except when it happened to me it was in a frigate scout ship and the hole wasn't crit. I don't believe it was a miscalculation there. I'll make some actual notes when it happens again though (hasn't in a month and a a half).

Yaay!!!!

Its been that way for years It mainly does it in c2 space the odd time in k-space afaik its tied to grids you normaly land on the last grid you were on before the wh tho when you havent you can get some really nice deep safes Cool. This is also how many orcas have escaped death when there c2 to hs connection dies on their way back Sad

I always considered this a gift from Bob. I either get a rollercoaster ride while being bounced out of the center of a star. Or I get an all expense paid, instantaneous trip back to my POS. Bob is Great.

I'm right behind you

This sounds amazing. CCP please do not "fix" this.

Happened to me several months ago on my Tengu alt.

I jumped it into HS through a crit hole from a C2, fully expecting to close it. When I got to HS, the hole was still there magically not crit anymore so I jumped back and ended up in a different C2 system. I waited out my timer but when i tried jumping back out, the WH immediately collapsed, stranding me in the new C2.
I logged a stuck petition at the time with the relevant system info but CCP just came back with 'WHs are dangerous, take probes.'
I managed to run into a nice daytripper a couple days later who let me out.

I'll see if I can find the details but realistically it was too long ago to be investigatable now..

There is no Bob.

That happened to me once and got a nice 50au deep safe out of it. But I struggle to reproduce it since then... :/
Maybe I try harder these days before they fix it!
