Schedule 1 is a game where you build a drug empire from scratch, jumping through several hurdles, like evading the police, finding new customers, expanding, making profits, and maintaining a network of dealers. Knowing all your controls and keybinds can save you from a bind. Pun intended.
Here’s a list of every control in Schedule 1 and what you can use it for.
Table of contents
All Schedule 1 controls and keybinds
Movement keybinds
| Action | Keybind | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Forward | W | You walk forward. |
| Backward | S | You walk backwards. |
| Left | A | You move towards the left. |
| Right | D | You move towards the right. |
| Jump | Space | While you can use the jumping mechanic to simply vault over obstacles, another great way to utilize it is to boost your movement speed. If you keep jumping while sprinting, you’ll move as fast as your character can possibly move. |
| Sprint | Shift | You start running. The game lets you choose between pressing and holding the Shift key whenever you want to use the sprint function. Simply choose the one you prefer from the dropdown menu in the Settings. |
| Crouch | Control | You squat down. Although this slows your movement speed down, you’re sneaky and less likely to be detected by aggressive NPCs or the police in a crouched state. This is indicated by the vignette effect around your screen when crouched. |
Equipment controls
The following controls help you access your gear and any tools at your disposal.
| Action | Keybind | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Phone | Tab | Takes your phone out, allowing you to sell your product and open the map as well as manage dealers, deliveries, text messages, and customers. |
| Flashlight | F | Turns your flashlight on, helping you see in dark areas of the map. |
| Map | M | Opens the map to help you get your bearings and see where objectives are. |
| Texts | T | Helps you communicate with dealers and customers. |
| Journal | J | Tracks all your tasks and deliveries. |
Other
| Action | Keybind | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Interact | E | Enables you to interact with the in-game world. |
| View Avatar/Character | V | Takes you into a third-person view of your character to see what it looks like. You’ll have to keep holding the keybind to continue using this feature. |
How to drop items
One of the many things Schedule 1 doesn’t tell you is how to drop or discard items in your inventory. There’s no keybind for it mentioned in the controls, so players might be confused. To clear it up, there’s no option to drop items in Schedule 1.
You can only discard items, meaning they’ll be permanently destroyed and not recoverable. To access this option, bring up your phone using the “Tab” key, and you’ll see the “Discard” box on the bottom right side of the screen. Select an item you no longer need, then drag and place it into that box. You’ll see it processing for a second, and then it’ll disappear.
How to move furniture
Moving furniture in Schedule 1, on the other hand, is quite easy. All you need to do is walk up to the item you need to move and pick it up by holding the right-click button on your mouse. You can then place the item wherever you want. However, there are some simple conditions to this procedure.
Firstly, you’ll need an empty inventory slot so the item has a place to transfer. Secondly, the piece of furniture must be empty. For example, if you want to pick up a storage shelf or a trash can, you’ll need to make sure there’s no item stored on it or trash within it, respectively.
Can you change your controls in Schedule 1?
Yes, you can change your controls and keybinds in Schedule 1. You can do so by following the steps below:
- Navigate to the in-game settings menu. If you’re already in the game, you can do this by pressing the Escape key. If you’re in the main menu, however, just click on Settings below “New Game.”
- Click on the Controls tab in the Settings menu.
- Left-click on the keybind you want to change, and you can set it to the one you prefer.
