I love the idea of this mod and hopefully the mod author can do a few tweaks needed to sort out a couple of the bugs.After encountering a problem with home plate, I had a look at the mod's internals. Unfortunately, the workshop in the underground area is not exactly a copy of Home Plate but more of an extension. This will make the mod conflict with anything that edits Home Plate. It also causes the quest to buy home plate from Geneva in Diamond City bug out so you'll have to use the console to add the key to your inventory manually. The workshop in the underground area needs to be split from Home Plate and edits to it removed ideally.
The mod also disrupts map distance calculation data. So for instance, you may pick up radio signals from opposite sides of the map from relay towers in Diamond city because the game is calculating the short travel distance through the tunnels. This is also related to the locational settings being shared.
ofc if none of that bothers you much, it's still a useful mod for survival mode.
Yeah breaks the hell outta them. I recently just figured it out by using buffout. Its a shame cuz I actually like this the best outta all the fast travel mods.
However, I have a problem with it. Quest markers will very often try to lead me through the Diamond City manhole. At first it wasn't that big of a deal but now it is quite annoying and confusing. Say I am at Red Rocket and I have to talk to Preston Garvey in Sanctuary, my compass doesn't point me to Sanctuary but wants me to go all the way to the Diamond City manhole, then all the way back to Sanctuary.
I can't use custom markers anymore either, even if I put one next to me it still wants me to go through the DC manhole to return to the very same place I was at.
The only problem I have with this is companions won't enter Far Harbor manhole and have to be teleported in. Also they don't always go upstairs, but many of them realize they are too far away (but in same cell I guess) and self-teleport to you. And I still find caravan brahmins in there. I haven't tried Nuka World manhole yet, so don't know if it works or not. The basic Commonwealth manholes appear to work the same as they did in the original mod. But I have to say, its great in Far Harbor for a safe place to sleep and not pay for a room. If Nuka World works, same will go for there too. I have the camping mod but having a bed in the underground is better as long as I'm close enough to get there easily.
Is there anyway to remove the manhole markers? If they already have map markers i dont see why I need to have the permanent door icons showing me to them all the time.
I'd use this mod if that were the case because it's a really cool addition, but I dont like the visual clutter those markers cause
Really like this mod, but there is a Conflict: The Castle Subway Station ( https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/21527 ) and your Ft Independence Manhole are in the same place.

I personally play on Xbox and had to figure this out the hard way. If the mod author won't fix the issue, I'd be willing to do so.
