Build a resupply depot so you may resupply your ships, then upgrade it to a Space dock after it is built… This way you will have both; resupply ships as well as sending production home via the upgrade to Space dock. Note: usually one per system is sufficient now. And your Home World culture Centers already has one built in.
The range on a star liner is about 20 (sectors) or 10 turns… And carries one Pop with the star life support loaded, right click this component and follow the derections.
Build a few Tankers (Supply Ship) with a Small tanker Hull. Basic Bridge and life support, crew qtrs. 3 engines and the rest all (blue) Supply Storage bays…
Yes, fleet the Tanker with ships in need of supply (only one complete turn fleeted is required to get a good fill from a tanker) Un-fleet tanker and send it to the nearest resupply or space dock to be refueled…
