Over extruding on solid layers ?

For example this is a basic hollow square..

Prince absolutely perfectly other than the " zigzag infill" which seems to over extrude.

I can of course manually set infill four layers which are not "solid".

For example this is just 10% infill.

But I do not seem to see or have any control over how this "fill" is set on the bottom layer ?

The only thing I can really do is not have any solid top or bottom layers ?

I think I figured out this problem in case it helps someone else..

Seems the bed is simply too close to the head. Its pushing down the filament too much and spreading it out more, so when the fill is done, there is simply less room, so it "piles up" more.
