All those resources that are in Korea, should I leave them there or ship them to Japan? Also with regard to Sappora, the engine factory. Does supply automatically go there that is on the island or do I have to specifically ship supply to the Sappora hex?
So according to your comment the Japanese are in dire straights and looking at a huge shortage with regard to engines for aircraft? So, maybe some stoppage of weak aircraft is in order?

Lets take these in order:
Korean resources - Korea, Manchuria, China and all the Japanese Home Islands (except Honshu) produce excess resources. Ship them all to Honshu. You need 3 million resources a month to keep Honshu functioning.
Sapporo's engine factory. Engine factories use HI, which is stored in a pool, not on the map. As long as there is enough HI in the pool, you're ok. Now if you're talking about increasing the size of the engine factory, you need supply. You don't need to ship the supply to that hex in particular. Anywhere on the island will do. On a rail line is quickest and most efficient. It will move around the island on it's own.
I recommend you make your changes to your airframe factories and then set your engine factories to match. Keep in mind that if you make too many changes, you'll suck up your supply and your economy (and ability to make war) will come to a screeching halt in the spring of 42.
