byron13 -> Question on Base Construction (5/16/2010 11:07:21 PM)

I've taken some time off but am getting back in.
First, what is the latest patch? I've got v. 1.03.1102a from February.
Second, what is the deal with building airfields or ports on a base that starts with a zero level? For example, you put a Seabee on an island with a zero airbase. In old WitP, you could build this up pretty quickly. In prior versions of AE, it took a painfully long time - typically one point per turn. So it would take 3 months to build a level one airfield on a perfectly flat island that would require little more than bulldozing brush. I thought this was "fixed" in Patch 3 along with the problem of not being able to supply certain islands. Started the game over, but the problem still seems to be there.
So what is the deal? Is it only certain islands where it takes forever to build up AFs? Or any island that starts with a zero? Once it is built up to 1, does the rate of building increase? I have plenty of supplies; if I put another ten Seabee battalions on the island, will it speed up? It doesn't seem right to me as it is now. It just doesn't take a Seabee battalion three months to build a dirt strip big enough to handle a squadron of fighters.
If this is the way it is supposed to work, I'll go back to my old game and give up on the one started under Patch 3.
