How to save in Schedule 1

Rome wasn’t built in a day, and the same holds for your drug empire in Schedule 1. As you hustle on your way to becoming the drug kingpin, you may need to save the game once in a while—maybe you need to take an IRL break, or worse case, you sense something weird is around the corner and you need some peace of mind that your progress so far is saved. Either way, here’s everything you need to know about saving your progress in Schedule 1.

How to save the game in Schedule 1

Manual save: Use the wall-mounted save button

Once you get the Motel room for yourself in Hyland Point, you will find a wall-mounted save button right beside the light switch by the front door. The same holds for every other property you’ll own from that point onward in Schedule 1.

To save your progress in the middle of the day, all you need to do is to approach the button and press E.

Auto-save: Sleep to save automatically

Sleeping on your bed automatically saves the game and progresses you into the next day. This is very much like what you see in a quintessential farm sim.

While the auto-save after sleeping works fine, you should also use the previous method to manually save before doing something major. There are worse things than save-scumming in Schedule 1.

Save using console

You can enable the console and force-save your progress anywhere in the game world. Keep in mind, though, that this is not the developer-intended method. So, use this at your discretion.

Here are the steps to save with the console:

1. Enable console from Settings. (Settings>Game>Console)
2. Use the ~ (Tilde) key on your keyboard to open the console when you want to save.
3. Type “save” (without the apostrophes) and hit Enter. Your game will be saved.

Schedule 1 save game file location

If you want to migrate your Schedule 1 save game from one device to another, you may need to know the game’s save game location. This is:

C:\Users\\AppData\LocalLow\TVGS\Schedule I\Saves
