Playing Survival Mode? Doing a lot of building in your settlement and need to save periodically without worrying about contracting insomnia? Then stop time with a manually operated save alarm clock. Craft it at a workbench near you and then just punch the clock whenever you're ready to knock off the job.

You can find it in the miscellaneous subsections of the decorations menu.

The components required are:
1 Glass
1 Spring
1 Nuclear Material
2 Aluminum

These are the same components you would receive from scrapping a normal clock.

Why is this better than adding a save function to beds?

1. It limits you to using it only in settlements. Part of surival mode is the risk/reward factor of sleeping in unowned beds out in the wasteland that may or may not give you a disease. Being able to save everywhere without sleeping completely eliminates that aspect.

2. You can place them in many locations without it being in the way and looking out of place. On top of the workshop station. On an end table next to your bed. Even next to the toilet if you spend alot of time there.
