Hi @mharris,
Unfortunately at present, you must have the same roots across all locations.
This is something we’ve heard requested before, and I agree it would be great to have a more flexible solution here.
I know some people have modified tk-core I think to allow the use of environment variables in the root path so that it can be redefined per machine, but I don’t know what steps they took, and I have concerns that might introduce issues, as I think changes to the Shotgun web side are probably needed for it to work in all situations.
I’ll pop a request into our roadmap on your behalf.
Best
Phil
