can you share materials between settlements fallout 4

by Prof. Katharina Cummerata II Published 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago

I can tell you from personal experience that it's *not* shared between settlements. Which really blows, since you have to make a stash of material at every settlement to build it up, or carry everything over. Only water and food are shared with Local Leader, building materials are not.
