"This upgrade increases the chance of a wormhole being present in the upgraded solar system."
Upgrading a low percentage with an another low percentage doesn't make it 100%. |

I'm really hoping DEV will know.
Edit:
So let's assume your equation is right.
Quantum Flux Generator is pretty much useless.
Your hypothesis is based on static connections (this data we can get).
You forgetting about random connections from kspace to wh and wh to kspace and kspace to kspace (this data is unknown).
And there is much more of them after recent changes done to wh spawn mechanic.
Because of those random connections your theory going to bin right away.
Ah, one more thing.
This upgrade have 5 lvl.
To make your equation work (based on static connections) you need to add each level of upgrade.
I did exclude K-space connections because there is no data available and the increase in spawn rate could be given a random multiplier.
If you were to get 100% increase in signatures per level of the thing (I assumed 200% total) and if you want to double the figures due to the new hole mechanics, you are looking at:20 spawn chances at 0.3% each, or a significant increase compared to not spawning, but still a small chance.
Just because your imagination says "THIS UPGRADE GIVES YOU ALL THE HOLES!" it actually doesn't function as such. Is it a significant upgrade compared to not having the upgrade? Yes. Are you guaranteed wormholes every day? Statistically no.

@Adrie Atticus
And your imagination tells you this upgrade is well balanced, yes?
It does what it says on the tin, at least it's accurate.
From balance point of view I really can't comment, why would you want constant wormholes in a system which has an ihub and potentially other sov upgrades? |

Probably my google skills are not enough to find DEV comment, link please.
And read whole thread before posting.
@Adrie Atticus
What part of description is accurate? lol
And if you can't understand purpose of having something like that in system
don't post in my thread please.
"This upgrade increases the chance of a wormhole being present in the upgraded solar system."
It does exactly that. It doesn't say "guarantees wormholes" and it doesn't do that. It doesn't say "prevents wormholes from spawning" and it doesn't do that. It does exactly what it says and no one has posted that the module is not functioning properly.
Now, what's broken about the module as per your original post which should be changed? |
