Is it possible in a mod to have ships not start with full supplies?

Would it be possible to mod it in so that newly created ships are made with no supplies and have to be filled up before setting out?

Maybe then have space based resupply and reordinance depots to make construction from starbases viable. (Just because then the whole, build a ship full of supplies, empty it, scrap it strategy wouldn't work and would make proper supply lines more critical.)
