I'm having game issue with the service the game is having. I increase my budget for my health and I notice that I have multiple dead body symbol an none are getting pick up. The game is link up to my account. I have more then enogh resources for the city to strive without any death in the city. I do understand death will occur but none of them are getting pick up. Is there something I can do to fix the issue. I even look on youtube to do a trouble shoot to resolve my death in the city. Off top, when will we be able to buy more title in the game. I'm max out on the titles an I would like to grow my city.

Are your cemeteries sending out vehicles to pick up bodies? If yes, did you perhaps build your city up too quickly. Building large areas of residential zoning too quickly can cause 'death waves'. Your cims have a max age they can reach and if you have great medical coverage they will all reach that ages and you'll have a massive amount of dead bodies for cemeteries to collect all at once.

Another possibility is traffic issues. What is the population and average traffic flow? Can traffic reach their destination in a reasonable time. If a vehicle can't reach their destination quick enough they will despawn. If your traffic flow is terrible then you may have hit the vehicle limit. There's a limit as to how many vehicles can be spawned and once.
 
One of my city I have 178k in my city. My other city I'm doing now has 80k and my cemeteries is only sending 2 vehicles if that. Some of me cemeteries isn't sending out none. I have a crematory and cemeteries next to each other to have them sync together but they aren't responding to the death. I've been trying to sync all of my resource like police and fire togther trash, recycling and incinerator trash together. I'm kind of stuck at this point. I'll do another city an try another approach to see how it play. At the same time I only have 9 titles to work with on the PS4 I really do like playing this game it is calmy for me and I'm able to make up a world to build. Any suggestion you have? I only being playing Cities Skyline Edition for about 3 months.

Are you including Youth Care and Elder Care in your city. You should . Youth Care varies the birth rate of cims. And Elder Care lengthens and varies the life spans of cims. They help spread out the death of cims.
And again, what is your traffic flow % ?
Are you seeing trucks without trailers or partial trains and metros? A sign of vehicle limit being hit. If so, if traffic flow is improved it will help.
What is your budget for health care set at ? 100-101% is normal. Too high does not help.
What is your dead cims waiting for pick up number verses your capacity of death care services. You can have too many services.
 
With my elder care, I try to over lap the radius so it won't be to many. My traffic flow is at 100% I can put the budget down to 90%. My healthcare budget is at 150% I can lower my budget down with that as well. You thinking I should get rid of some of the service I have? Honestly I do have a lot service in my city thinking it will help the sims out. I'm going to try to get rid of some of my service to see if that will.
 
My understanding, based on reading the forums, is that too many Services confuse the AI. It sends out fewer vehicles. If my city is having an issue. I will increase budget for a few minutes at 3 speed , then back to normal.

That would would make sense. I will try using less service for the city an add a little more service as needed. Thank you for help. Much needed
