Had the same problem a hyperlane will open some time later as an event

when? kinda borin just sittin here unable to expand or interact with the rest of the galaxy

As has been stated above, you will get a hyperlane appearance out of Chiss space and have like 3 systems of pirates to fight through before you get access to the main galaxy. By the time I got to that point I had already cleared out all the pirate and exiled Chiss fleets years earlier and had just been sitting on a building pile of resources. Breaking out then only became limited by the amount of influence I had to just claim and rampage over everyone... highly disappointing and with hyperspace travel so slow... I quit after crushing all comers.

Plan on trying again with a more mainstream faction once I forget how horribly slow this mod is.

Pretty sure the hyperlane opens at mid game - when a surprise ship arrives

What year is the mid game?

depend on settings when you start new game

So only to be crystal clear. Chiss entry galaxy
by time (cca when??) or by tech (name??)

its suppose to happen at mid game, I kinda gave up before that considering my mid game was set to like 8110 or something and it took forever just to get too 8000, playing as one of the minor factions now.

By Time onlynm exactly at Midgame, when that is, depends on your setting.

I had the event happen, but no hyperlane showed up.

Found a workaround. Wouldnt let me manually send ships to the new lane that opened, but if I selected a science ship and click auto explore it would let the science ship go. After the science ship explored this new spot then everything worked fine afterwards.

So i figured it out.

There seems to be an oversight of the hyperlane that you cannot see well due to the Utegetu Nebula since it does reduce visibility of anything inside of it, but also because of hyperlane overlap somewhat.

Here are the screenshots and where to go to progress to the rest of the galaxy.

If you don't want to look at screenshots then go to the star "CZ-198" and you should see what I'm talking about. You should also be able to see the sign to the "Unknown" star inside the system view overlapped with Tenupe

I was playing coop with a friend of mine and utilized a gateway mechanic to play with the rest of the galaxy >:)

I got the Event 2 Months ago (InGame Time) and nothing happens. I flew my Science Vessel to CZ-198 and i can´t see anything. Did it take some more time or a follow-up Event when the new Hyperlane show up?

I got the event and it did not show the hyperlane. I was, however, at midgame after the event able to manually tell a science ship to survey the connecting star system. The hyperlane then appeared after the ship reached the destination. It should also work if you tell a science ship to auto explore.

I also love that I was able to use those initial 100 years to build up my Ascendency in peace.

I dont see the System between CZ-198 and Geroon (3rd Screenshot in Post #11), so i can´t manually order my science vessel to explore. Maybe my SaveGame is buged and i have to start again. -.-

edit: ok, now that is weird. in my SaveGame the Path between "CZ-198" and "Tenupe" is not available, rather, "Tenupe" does not even exist... so my SaveGame is definitive bugged. -.-
