Doesn't seem like it ; I have 13 on my settlement and one in an outpost; all work fine

The only issue might be if you have guards? I think (not positive) they would patrol around all the settlement buildings - so travel signs might be included in that and you will see your guards head off across the map?

I see but I never set them to guards

This explains why my guards were walking across the map and dying to bandits lol

It is best to have all the signs in an independent settlement so that the NPCs you have as guards do not patrol to them or you will end up with NPCs spread all over the map...

And dont worry about raids over that "signals settlement"... the signs are indestructible as all the structures

I usually put all my fast travel signs under a settlement I call "teleporters", I noticed that if I set up guards in my settlement they started walking to the different travel signs. So you can do with them as you want as far as what settlement they belong to, however if you want your workers to finish them they will be build from the settlement they are made under(usually your main by default).

Personally I wouldn't bother with setting companions as guards, guards don't produce and only use your resources and they travel alone so they most likely die, furthermore we can see when a raid is coming and we just need to gather troops when the raid starts (they take long time to get to u) and go all together in a fight.

I am wondering is there a way to delete an outpost grouping from the settlement menu?

Guards also reduce the number of raiders, IIRC.

They also reset when they get hungry why I don't like using them, that and bandits are like renown pinyatas now for me lol

+1 on these comments. I do the exact same thing and it works very well.

Oh guards reduce number of raids? Interesting, how many guards do you have?
