Is there are way to salvage big Wrecks ? (Salvaging)

[Macro]

well my station killed a little attack of 3-4 Xenon Destroyers who drift around dangerously close the station now ( and rly not in a good spot )

Are there Salvaging Ships and Drones Planned to Clear Space debris ? so that you can salvage the metal wrecks and get Resurces and get the space junk out of the way ?
I know there was a mod out there but its rly outdated.

It would be Realy an nice addion to the game i think.

It also Would be a new profession in the game to make Money and Resurces.Also a new way to play the game.Or start it.
I rly dont get it why The Dev´s Dont put some of the Good popular Mod´s out there in the game

I mean its not the first time i saw many big Wrecks floating around in the game ...
Its Rly a shame that i have to install a mod To recycle ships And that i can sell Stations
Why something like that isn´t already in the game ?

Give The player options !
it's a free universe .

salvaging should be a thing indeed i would really like tho salvage all those ship part in tharka cascade and other sector even station wreck

hum i've thinking about something similar / different, but why not both !
My suggestion is to add a new station module for recylcling unwanted / outdated ship insteed of seeling them or sending them to death ..
Should be really interresting to merge both idea to add a new in game mechanic and point of interest !

tho i heard selling ship is like sending them to decommision

Absolutely not, they are just used by the AI wich i don't want ^^

Salvage is good, there is or was a mod for recycling ships and stations not sure if still around or updated, lost a lot of mods with CoH because people couldn't be bothered to update and took them down instead

Gosh, salvage would be such and awesome feature. Brings back thoughts of the dedicated salvage ships I had in EVE online.

Exactly, that would be a nice feature in X4. I kill alot of capitals just for fun, but having the ability to salvage them would be very cool since I salvaged alot in EVE

Except for the permanent debris fields in some sectors, the destroyed ship hulks you leave behind de-spawn in short order. There is some recycling by the AI regarding stations. Occasionally you will see a station on the map that is white. That station is being dismantled by the AI. Though to my understanding the resources that get reclaimed also despawn and are not used to build new stations. Salvaging is something I would like to see as well, though how detailed the salvaging would be is iffy.
Maybe it would become "scrap" as a new commodity item which could be sold as a low yield (1/5th or 1/3 value) source of silicon and ore. I certainly would not want it to become "hull parts" or "turret components" etc

Imagine this.
You're flying about, minding your business when you fly into a sector and there's a huge fight going on.
Normally you'd either turn around and leave, or fly through AFAP (As Fast As Possible!).
Now.
If you had a salvage ship, you'd call it in to a closer sector to where the fight is.
And as soon as the fight is over, you call your salvage team in.
It arrives. Salvage drones pop out and start to "salvage".
And there's always the possibility that these drones might find some "juicy equipment" for you to use or just sell. Blueprints. Weapons. Cargo. et al.

Would add a very nice part to the game !
