Note that the Balance Mod does give organic hulls some regeneration ability for just this purpose.

That depends on if you view the ship's complement of organic armor as distinct components or as a regenerative skin (akin to playing as zerg in starcraft). I view it as the latter.
I was taking about the destroyed stuff *causing* regeneration. Like nuking a vampire.

Certainly other, undamaged components could (re)generate replacement armor to fill the hole.

[Yimboli]

Oh, ok. What if all organic armor is destroyed?

[Suicide Junkie]

That's irrelevant.
You can add regen ability to things other than armor components if you want them to be regenerated.

To go with your example, if you were to say, skin your zergling alive, then the hide in your backpack isn't going to contribute anything to the zerg's regeneration capability any more.
The best way to model the starcraft physics is to give all the regen ability to the hull, and give the armors themselves the regen ability so they can be regenerated, but with an amount of zero. (or an insignificantly small amount if nessesary)

So if you skin a zerg, does the skin grow a new zerg?

The market for zerg pelts may take a dive...
