Originally by: Nutsberog Hey guys
Thanks for the replies, it does help clear some of the fog! So basically if we scan down another WH that is vacant we should be mining out that WH aswell? Is there any problem with a covetor or hulk going through another WH to a system where the ore etc is?
How can i tell when the Wh is about to collapse? how many jumps and how long will it take to shut one? Also if we scan down a vacant C2 WH would it be better to set up a POS in that system as opposed to the C1? is there much of an income difference between a C1 and C2?
You will not fly a Hulk or Covetor into (or out of) a C1, but the other 4 mining boats will go.
Before you EVER go through a WH do a Show Info on it. 2 things control the life of a WH - mass and time. Every time someone goes through the mass of the ship is deducted from the max mass capacity.- TIME:
"This wormhole has not yet begun its natural cycle of decay and should last at least another day." = brand new "This wormhole is beginning to decay, and probably won't last another day." = first 1/2 of life cycle "This wormhole is reaching the end of its natural lifetime." = last 1/2 of life cycle "This wormhole is on the verge of dissipating into the ether." = imminent collapse
- MASS:
"This wormhole has not yet had its stability significantly disrupted by ships passing through it." = More than 1/2 of max mass left. "This wormhole has had its stability reduced by ships passing through it, but not to a critical degree yet." = Less than 1/2 of max mass left. "This wormhole has had its stability critically disrupted by the mass of numerous ships passing through and is on the verge of collapse." = Almost at max mass. I have seen statements of this being 4%, 5%, or 10% remaining. I don't know which is correct, but I believe it's 10%. Since the maximum mass varies with different holes, and ships come in all different masses, there is no set number of jumps. I use DaOpa's as a quick reference, it has WH time, masses, and target destinations.
