How To Play Multiplayer In Schedule 1

Everyone needs friends, including an, uh, entrepreneur like yourself. Schedule I is a unique take on the small genre of weird job simulators. Schedule 1 is a fun game, no doubt, but like all games, it’s more fun with friends. Four of them, to be exact. How to play Schedule I with friends Screenshot by Destructoid To add one to three friends to your Schedule I game, you need to add them as a friend on Steam. To do so, open your Friends page in your Steam account by hovering with the mouse over your name in the Steam software and selecting Friends. Then, press the green Add a friend button. There are multiple ways to invite someone to be your Steam friend, but you should be able to figure it out from there. Once you’ve added a friend, all of you will need to be online before you can invite them to your game. If you can’t see your friends in your list even though all of you are logged in, someone likely set their account status to Offline. To change that, click on the Steam button in the top left corner of the Steam desktop app and find the "Go Offline…" option. If you see it, you’re already online. If it says "Go Online…" press the button, and you’ll be visible to your Steam friends. How many friends can you invite to a Schedule 1 game?

It doesn’t seem like the developer, TVGS, plans on adding native support for more than four players in the future, based on the official long-term development roadmap on Trello. However, not all hope is lost yet. There used to be a popular multiplayer mod for Schedule I that allowed up to 20 users in the same game. The mod has been hidden by its author since it’s not updated to match the current version of the game, but it might become available in the future. Even if it doesn’t, I would be surprised if no one else takes over the job and makes a different multiplayer mod. Of course, even if that happens, the game is not optimized for a dozen or more players to run around the same tiny city. You’re probably better off sticking to a small group of friends.
