Age Old Question About Wormholes

Can anyone or does anyone know how the replenish system works in Wormhole space?

Such as how do the sites repopulate? How do Ladar and Grav sites spawn, how often, what affects their spawn rate, etc.

I was told at some point that Wormholes are grouped into constellations (indirectly) so if you are in a constellation where someone inhabits each wormhole, the sites spawn more frequently than if you were in a wormhole where there was no one else in a wormhole that was somehow linked to you.

What you were told is correct, as far as people have been able to tell. If there's equal site-completion activity in each system of the constellation then sites will spawn regularly throughout the constellation, but if there's an uninhabited system then sites will accumulate there over time and the rest of the constellation will "dry up".

So I need to hope someone else inhabits that system?

Yes, that would give you the best shot of having regular spawns in your own WH.

Or you can hunt down all the other systems in your constelation and be that someone.

Is it CCP verified this ?

I always asked myself how was possible to verify this without to be in the server code ...

When you see the number of WH in a system, to even have the chance to visit another WH from your constellation seem to be even more than luck ... And i never found a website or thread where WH "holders" telling things like "Hey guys, write here if you live in constellation CXxx !"

The constellation theory was disproved.

Proven: WH sigs Do Not Move Between Constilations

Ah thanks everyone.

I wish they would give us some rhyme or reason.

It is unknown at the current time, and CCP are keeping their mouths tightly shut. As Tau says, the constellation theory was disproven.

This disproves nothing. Warping to anom's in a wh will not make them despawn. Warping to sigs, like grav, radar's, etc sites will start the despawn timer which take round 4 days.

What I have found is C2's and C3's will have faster respanws than a C4. These are the ones I have lived in. If you jump around in the wh's you will see that there are very few, if any, empty C2 and c3's, which typically don't have many anoms in them. Lots of empty C4's with lots of anom's. Does this all relate, does it prove anything.. no idea. But I believe the constellation theory exists until someone can comprehensively disprove it.

edit...

so what I am getting at is that the more populated C2 and C3 wh's have faster respawns as more people run them more regularly.
