Linking all settlements to one settlemen share storage?

[FloorTank]

If i link let say all of my settlements to goodsprings will they all then share other's items or will they just be connected to goodspings?

Settlemets linked with Supply Lines Share the Junk in the Workbench and Food/Water

Yes you can link them all to a central node; or link them in a big circle, same end result. They all end up sharing.

That, and failing to see this topic has been covered numerous times now, and the most recent one already had all the answers OP was looking for... But hey, that search function must be harder than making a new thread.

Yeah my bad about goodspings XD and yes it actually is faster to just create new topic than search so thx for the answers

It would be better to do A-B-C-D- etc supply lines instead of all to Sanctuary/Goodsprings. When a settlement has a lot of provisioners coming and going it gets attacked a lot, unless you want attacks that is.

In my first playthrough I had 3 to 5 attacks at the same time multiple times a day at settlements with lots of provisioners. The next playthrough I linked them as above so that only two provisioners visited and there were very few attacks.

Provisioners will kite enemies into your settlements. These are not "attacks," per se. It just means your provisioner's route passes by nearby enemies, either static spawns or random encounters.

For example, connecting The Slog to Finch Farm ensures your provisioner will walk right through Saugus Ironworks parking lot. Any Forged there will be drawn into a fight, and probably end up engaging one of the settlements, too. Bad news if this is The Slog, as many of the original ghouls there are not set essential, and can die.

On the other hand, connecting The Slog to Greentop nursery ensures your provisioner will walk right by the crashed military convoy, a frequent spawning ground for military robots, which I'm pretty sure are random encounters because they seem show up there more often than cell resets would call for.

There are a number of random encounter points around most settlements. Look for campsites, not all random encounters are at campsites, but campsites are almost always random encounter points. You could find anything from a friendly bartender to a super mutant patrol at them.

I recommend scouting the area around any new settlement thoroughly before designing defenses or setting up routes.

I have been thinking of making at least 3 provisioners per settlement to see what happens to the game. I have 29 of the 30 settlements at the moment and have 20 people in all but 2 places. and diamond city. havent figured out what to do there. but to have many crisscrossing routes. I find my people and upgradethem as i go around the map.
