Salvage is only just worth bothering with since citadels bumped the prices, this would crash that to some degree.

Rigging is the equivalent of all the crazy wiring and tweaks in the Millenium Falcon. Taking that out and going back to just another Correlian freighter is the equivalent of this skill.

Takes away what makes rigs what they are. If you can take them out and re-use them they become mods essentially.

Do bear in mind that T3C can remove rigs without penalty.

Novel idea but I would say no.

If you could remove a rig, you would just have a mess of wires and circuits anyway. Possibly some of the components used to build the rig, similar to reprocessing. But I would still vote no to this.

I don’t think this is necessary.  
However, I could agree to the ability to reprocess whatever is left after ripping out a rig, maybe yielding a few parts of the salvage and/or some minerals. Removing a rig could leave you with items similar to scrap metal.

the only thing i could agree on is tht it would be nice to get a % of salvage back  
maybe if you take out a T1 rigs its lost … take out a T2 rig you get T1 salvage could be ok too

maybe … not sure …

And certainly bad for the ship you are ripping it out of, imagine trying to repair that mess afterwards.
