How to Save Your Game in Schedule 1
Schedule 1does not have a traditional autosave feature, where the game periodicallysaves your progress after every transactionor once you unlock anything. So, players will have to rely on manually saving their game through two methods: either bysleeping on the bed or by interacting with the intercomin their safe house.
Sleeping is a major mechanic in the game thatlets you skip the nightand wake up at a particular time. This mechanic is only active at night, as you can’t sleep during the day, so anything you do before sleeping is unsaved, unless you finally get some shut-eye.
A reliable mechanic to save your game without sleeping is the intercom inside your safe room. Interacting with theintercom will immediately save your game, but there’s a 60-second cooldown for some reason. Either way, verify to periodically save your game to avoid losing yourSchedule 1progress in the event of a game crash.
