What Sneaky Does in Schedule 1

The Sneaky effect in Schedule 1 has two big perks for avoiding heat and stealing:
Police Alert Slows Down: The "?" meter (your wanted/alert level when cops notice you) fills up 50% slower while Sneaky is active. This gives you a lot more time to either run away or finish whatever illegal thing you were doing before the police fully notice.
Pickpocketing Gets Easier: When you’re trying to pickpocket, the success area (the good zone where the minigame succeeds) becomes much larger. This makes stealing from NPCs a lot less risky.
Sneaky is an Ability effect, not just cosmetic, and it works immediately when active.
How Players Use Sneaky
Street Dealing: Reduces how quickly cops notice when you're handing out stuff.
Pickpocket Runs: Much easier to pull off thefts with less chance of failure.
Trespassing: Guards and police will take longer to react while you’re somewhere you shouldn’t be.
Many players also report that Sneaky helps noticeably around high-security areas like the illegal goods warehouse or the Taco Ticklers front, letting them slip by guards.
Final Blurb
Sneaky turns you into a stealth machine. Slower police response and better stealing odds — a must-have if you live that high-risk, high-reward lifestyle.
