Don't know what your trouble is, but you do have to have the resupply ship highlighted, then place the cursor over a gas planet containing caslon or hydrogen (depending on the fuel you need to supply your ships), then right click and a menu comes up with something like a "deploy" command on it. You mentioned gas cloud- I've always worked this on gas planets; not sure if it works in a gas cloud.

If it's not working with supply ships, why don't you just use the enemy's planets(as in take them over)? It's far better, and they can't get destroyed

well it was for a resuply in a history discovery since my empire was at the other edge of the galaxie, it was the first time i used them manualy i will try on a gaz planet and see if it's a bug to correct with the next update.
the gaz cloud has 57% of caslon gaz since i'm at the begining of the game i still use fission engines which use caslon too. see you tomorow for the update

stay tuned ^^

Goooood Mooorning Dwoooooorrrrld !!!!!

well the problem was that the default action in a cloud is to patrol it ...
so the solution to delpoy the ship it to do a "Ctrl + Right Click" an you can see the dropdown list of actions avalable there.

a little tricky for noobs and so me. ^^

I would prefer the other way around default "right click" action shows the dropdown and "Ctrl" show the default action under the mouse then "right click" while keeping "Ctrl" down.

thanks everyone
