Was there a change to when static's open to the other side without a mention in the patch notes? I've rolled my C4 twice now and sat on the hole and within an hour people were jumping into me. Was the system changed back to the old way where if you warped to it the hole opened to the other side?

Well, there's def a timer that auto spawns it. nfi how long it's meant to be.

It used to be hours not 30 minutes to an hour

K162 Mechanics Per CCP Fozzie, August 2014

Per CCP Fozzie's post: if you've warped to your static but not gone through, and the static has 15 or fewer hours of lifetime remaining, then every few minutes the K162 has a chance to open up on the other side.

And verily did Bob say unto me, "Yo, Dawg, I heard you like wormholes so I put wormholes in your wormhole." And it was good.

I feel like they ninja changed that though. Now I scan my static and warp there, and wait. I've had two people jump in to me after about 30 minutes to an hour. I think when you warp to the static it triggers the k162 on the other side. Which would be the old method, but ccp didnt they were rolling back that change.

Stop being obtuse. It's right there in the literature online.

1. C4 connections that go to C1 through C4 space last 16 hours
2. Wormholes have an increasing chance to auto spawn when they have 15 hours or less remaining

You've been seeing guys in around an hour because of the published ways that wormholes operate.

Yeah, well, it's just like my opinion, man.

If and only if they have been warped to, right?

yes, timer won't start until you warp to them.

That is working as intended. Since X877 holes have a lifetime of 16 hours, the K162 is going to spawn on the other side after an hour give or take a few minutes.
