A work around could be to make bases not have unlimited supplies. They would need some supply storage to fire their weapons, and would only share evenly with other ships. As I recall, the unlimited supply is in the base hull settings in vehicles.txt.

Without engines, it won't suck down it's supplies like a ship. But if it shares supplies often, and gets into combat often, it will need a visit from a supply ship. Probably several, to refill it's supply. Or use solar panels.
