A simpler thing if you want bases to resupply ships like before the patch, is just to make a change to your SE4/data/settings.txt file.

Change the line:

Bases Can Join Fleets := False

to:

Bases Can Join Fleets := True

The only problem with defining bases as ships, is that then they can't use the Base type, which means that you can no longer use that to limit the components, target types, and mount eligibility.

It'd be nice if we could put the Supply Depot resupply ability on a component, and then we wouldn't even have to do the clunky "create a fleet to resupply" thing. But if this worked, I think SJ would know and would have said so.
