I've also discovered a myriad of ways to upset the game engine with a custom damage zone model .. including "ghost ships" where your ship is functional, but completely transparent in game, and also, my favourite so far, where the visual model of your ship lies at the bottom of the sea in two halves, while a transparent functional version happily sails away. My least favourite is a CTD caused by erroneous damage sphere numbering.

Sounds like an awesome mod. Wish I had the skills to help make it happen.
