1. Will a base that has Oil and a refinery produce fuel? Likewise will a base with resource and Light industry or heavy industry produce supply?

2. How many days does it take for oil/resource to be converted into fuel/supply?

3. In the editor is there a certain order in which Manpower, oil, resource, refinery and industry should be added to the device slots?

4. What is the maximum number in the device slots for each of these (i) Oil, (ii) Resource, (iii) Manpower, (iv) Refinery, (v) Light Industry, (vi) Heavy Industry, (vii) Shipyard and (viii) Repair Shipyard?

I can answer only 1 and 2.

1. A base with Oil and repaired refineries (set to produce) will produce. You´ll get 9 fuel and one 1 supply per refinery. As long as you have enough oil there.
each refinery uses 10 oil per turn.

Light Industry will produce if it is repaired and set to produce and you have the 15 resource per turn and factory. Each factory will produce 1 supply per turn
Heavy industry will produce if it is repaired and set to produce and you have 20 resource + 2 fuel per turn and factory available. You´ll get 2 HI points per fac and 2 supply

2. HI will consume 20 resources and 2 fuel per turn and produce 2 HI points and 2 supply.
LI will consume 15 resources and produce 1 supply
A refinery will consume 10 oil and produce 9 fuel and 1 supply.

Maybe the tracker screen i attached will help to understand. For me it helped when i was new. AE Tracker is a program you should think about when trying to manage the
japanese industry.

3 - no order needed
4 - dont know for sure, but there are two screens (1-0 and 11-20) and there could be a way to get more.

Here is a pitcture
