Sorry, but we've already tried to get 'whole ship' regeneration that way. Armor Regeneration only works on armor.
As of V1.49, I remember doing a test, whereby I gave my living ships's Lifesupport organs an organic armor regen, and they repaired each other.
In fact, with Gold v.57, a pile of Ion Engines just healed up after a heavy pounding.
Oddly enough, when the engines were totally gone, the lifesupport stopped healing itself...
After some testing, I have come to believe that the organic regeneration applies to any component with OA ability at least 1.
However, if you lose all copies of ANY component with OA ability, then the OA regen is shut off, even though you may still have OA generating components operational.
In my case, that meant losing all of my OA engines, OR all of my OA lifesupport.
This needs hardcode changes to work
. SE4 should check to see whether ANY surviving component still has OA ability, not if any stack of an OA ability component has been destroyed completely.
