There are so many planes in the game I don't see the value. Carriers appear to generate planes wherever they go anyway, they were just trying to see if they could get them to launch so you could see it.
I have not tested it but even if you could generate an airbase, you would need to create a 'zone' that when you enter it, it would create the airbase. And once a zone is used, you can't use it again. So you would have zones all over the Pacific. (not to mention airbases all over the Pacific)
For example on zones. Say you put two zones in the channel into Pearl Harbor. You start inside the harbor and as you pass through zone one it spawns a Task Force attacking Pearl. So you go attack it. Now zone two is set to welcome you back and give you a pat on the back if you sank a carrier. Well, it will never happen. Why you ask. Because you passed through the zone leaving the harbor, even though it did nothing because you didn't sink the carrier yet. When you sink the carrier you have met the conditions of zone 2 and it will welcome you back to Pearl, even though you are in the middle of the Pacific 500 miles away. But when you return to Pearl it will do nothing, it has already been "triggered" when you left.
Your idea may be useful for other things so keep coming up with ideas. I am not trying to discourage you, I have bumped into some things while trying other things and got an unexpected result and then :hmm::hmm: wonder how I could use that? So don't give up on ideas, you may find something you didn't expect.
