Got to level 3 and was IMPRESSED by this city. I know it's going to be impressive when its level 1 still looks a lot better than the level 2 at croup manor. And when it hit its level 3 it's like the level 5 of croup manor and what Diamond City should have been had the sole survivor been its mayor.

Neon sign, canopies, greenhouse, a dry cleaner, a big player home with a luxurious bed. It's basically a self-sustaining city, a glorious diamond city that sits at the center of the wasteland.

I can hardly believe that it's Jamaica Plain anymore. Can't wait to revisit at nighttime.

PS: Strangely enough, the Power Armor disappeared at level 3. The PA station looks empty now.XD But the city is bustling! Probably one of the best thus far. Even the CASTLE at level 3 is underwhelming, dark and "slummy' (no offense to the designers, I blame our difference in creative taste".

I hope that its developers would "retouch" some of the settlements out there, especially the castle. Or at least make an alternate city design that we can choose. :) At any rate, I really like Jamaica Plains Right now and aside from the fact that the player home is beyond the buildable area of the workshop and thus you can't modify parts of it due to triggering the auto-exit, it is PERFECT for a home base.

I know I'm gushing. But man! Look at it! It's perfection. I can't wait to develop the rest of the settlements. :)

(As an added note, I know I choose "as designer intended" but I always edit the 1x1 martial plots to become the turret tower by myrmarachne. I just love those laser turrets. Spawn three dawnclaw and a mirelurk queen and watch as three of lvl3 of these melt these beasts in no time).
 
Hoping Hangman's Alley upgrades soon, have Strong there. Might send MacCreedy to Jamaica once I get him, because this does look pretty cool.

If you grab Place Everywhere you can toggle Auto Workshop Exit. F5 key.
You'll find a few settlements build out of bounds. Which is kool, until they put settlement assets out of the reach of the player. That I personally don't like.
Also, "some" have what I call designer signatures, that are little spots outside the settlement. You'll have to search for them cause I ain't sayn a word! LOL
Oh, and kinggath "may" have added his own little Easter Eggs... :grin
