Question about plot upkeep across multiple settlements

So I am just getting the hang of this mod, and managed to clear up some upkeep cost bugs
but now I have some questions regarding multiple settlements. I have operating costs turned
on all plots and non plots, and I have double checked that it is working by turning them off
checking info on the plot and it says no upkeep costs then turning them back on and it shows
upkeep costs again.

I have tested 1 plot in a separate settlement (red rocket) that is an
industrial plot without adding any residential plots to provide income to pay for it, yet the plot
seems to still be getting paid somehow. I do not have caravan routes set up, nor do I have
the sim settlements 2 caravan buildings (don't have access to municipal plots yet).

Is sanctuary paying that upkeep cost somehow? Or are my donations to virtual storage in sanctuary
shared by all settlements? Or are my operating costs bugged some how and not actually active when
they should be?

Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.
 
What's the maintenance cost, a few caps per day? (I haven't yet 100% memorised what costs what)
Is there any caps in the vanilla Workbench?

The farm costs 2 caps per day and the industrial plot that was getting paid cost 4 caps a day. I checked the workshop and there were no caps.
However as soon as I put in a farm everything broke again in that settlement... now non of the plots are being paid even though I have 5
residential plots all paying 6 caps each per day my 2 farms and 1 industrial plot are not being paid.

This was the issue I was having before at sanctuary, but now it has translated over to red rocket. Do you need the city planners desk and a
settlement leader to auto pay plot costs? I think around the time I assigned codsworth at sanctuary this problem was resolved there.
I just can't seem to get this mod to work properly, as soon as I plug up one problem another very similar bug crops up again.

If you have more experience using this mod and could give me a better idea of what I'm doing wrong that would really help.

As far as it's worked for me, you don't need either, as long as they're either able to get those payments locally or via a caravan network.
I was hoping it'd be a nice easy fix, I don't know exactly what's going on either, to be honest - I've had the mod be deducting those Costs daily even when that setting has NEVER been switched on in that save. And SOMETIMES changing those settings applies to everything you've already built, but sometimes it doesn't...
