Schedule 1 No Briefcase in Bed Fix Guide

If you’re unable to assign employees to beds in Schedule 1, this is intentional. After update 0.3.6, beds no longer function for worker assignments. They’ve been replaced by lockers, which now manage employee roles.

Troubleshooting Missing Briefcases

  • Stop using beds—lockers are now the only valid method for assigning workers.
  • Each locker is permanently linked to one NPC, and vice versa. After assignment, their briefcase will appear inside the locker as a cash storage point.
  • Beds in older saves are cosmetic—they won’t spawn briefcases or function for employees.

Lockers vs. Supply Storage

  • Lockers are for cash only. Do not use them for supplies.
  • For supplies, use shelves, racks, or safes. Mixing systems will break NPC pathing and idle workers.

Why Lockers Replaced Beds

  • Space efficiency: Lockers consolidate assignments and storage into compact units.
  • Gameplay streamlining: Removes redundant mechanics while preserving functionality.

If briefcases aren’t appearing in beds, switch to lockers immediately. Pair them with shelves for supplies to maintain workflow.
