Creating a fully optimized bungalow setup in Schedule 1 can dramatically boost both production and profits. This build uses seven fully automatic mixing stations to craft Extreme Punch, one of the game’s highest-value products. At a cost of just $24,350, this setup offers a smart, efficient layout that runs with minimal intervention.
Required Equipment and Cost Breakdown
To begin, players must gather and place specific furniture and machines. Each component plays a key role in maintaining smooth automation throughout the setup. Here’s the complete list and cost breakdown:
-
30 Modern Wall Lamps – $3,000
-
2 Lab Ovens – $2,000
-
2 Chemistry Stations – $2,000
-
7 MK2 Mixing Stations – $14,000
-
1 MK2 Packaging Station – $750
-
4 Medium Storage Racks – $180
-
22 Large Storage Racks – $1,320
-
4 Wall-Mounted Shelves – $200
-
6 Beds – $900
Total Cost: $24,350
Altogether, this setup delivers full automation from input to final packaging.
Room Layout and Station Positioning
First, clear all the bungalow rooms for a clean foundation. Then, place 10 modern wall lamps in each of the three production rooms. Arrange one in each corner, two near the support beams, and one in the center. These lights brighten the space evenly while avoiding visual clutter.
Next, move to the back room. This will serve as both a sleeping and storage area. Line four beds along the rear wall, place two more to the side, and fill the remaining space with large storage racks. These racks will hold excess ingredients and reduce restocking frequency.
In the crafting rooms, begin by placing four medium storage racks along the back. After that, set up the two lab ovens and chemistry stations in a U-shaped layout to allow easy access. Immediately beside each oven, position the seven MK2 mixing stations. Add large storage racks next to every mixer to streamline ingredient delivery.
Then, install the MK2 packaging station on an available wall. Mount one wall shelf directly above it for storing baggies. Finally, use the remaining three shelves to hold key ingredients such as motor oil, cuke, and paracetamol.
How to Link Machines for Full Automation
Once everything is placed, it’s time to link the machines. First, select a recipe for both chemistry stations. Connect each one to a lab oven. Then, link the ovens to two mixing stations to start the production chain.
After that, create a chain across the remaining mixing stations. Ensure each mixer feeds into the next in a straight sequence. Ultimately, the final mixer sends the product to the packaging station, which then drops the result onto the shelf above.
The ingredient flow for Extreme Punch follows this pattern:
Moat Royal → Cuke → Paracetamol → Gasoline → CU → Mega Bean → Battery
Keep in mind, players must manually confirm each new recipe by selecting “Done” in the mixers at least once. This step unlocks full automation. Once completed, the entire production line runs without player input.
Assigning Workers to Maximize Efficiency
Now it’s time to assign workers. Use three chemists and two handlers. Each worker needs a bed first, so assign them one before assigning tasks.
-
Chemist 1: Crushed → Cooked → Mixer 1 → Mixer 2
-
Chemist 2: Mixer 3 → Mixer 4
-
Chemist 3: Mixer 5 → Mixer 6 → Mixer 7
Meanwhile, handlers handle ingredient routes. Assign the first to supply Motor Oil, Cuke, Paracetamol, and Gasoline. The second handler handles Mega Bean, Battery, Jazz, and the packaging station.
Make sure handlers do not overlap routes. If they share the same task, machines may clog or ingredients may go missing. When setup properly, workers operate smoothly without needing supervision.
Storage Strategy and Profit Potential
To reduce downtime, fill extra shelves with backup ingredients. Doubling shelf space increases restock intervals from three to eight days. As a result, players can focus on growing their empire rather than running errands.
Currently, Extreme Punch must be sold in baggies. With everything set, head to a customer and make a sale. In most cases, a single unit can sell for up to $407, depending on addiction level and product demand.
Finally, don’t forget to keep the baggies stocked above the packaging station. This step prevents blocked outputs and ensures smooth delivery of the finished product.
