Any component they are capable of repairing in battle; small guns, electronics, lisfesupport, crew quarters, etc, would be given 1 point of AO regen.

Or give the 0 points of AO, that way they do nothing on their own.

Though they may, or may not, become fully repaired after battle even if the ship did not have your Engineer's Quarters, even with an AO of only 0.
