*Massive Bug* Waiting for hearse or ambulance…

[PLAYERONE]

My population has reached 70k and I have plenty of crematoriums and med clinics and one hospital. My civilians aren’t happy due to them waiting on these services. I click on the services and only 25% of the available vehicles are actually being used. There is a similar problem with my Post services. They aren’t using all of the available vehicles as well. And yes, those services are budgeted on the slider at 100%. This has literally put me at standstill because when I purchase more med clinics, they’re only using 1 vehicle.

maybe your services such as hospital are set only to specific district?

Sounds like traffic jams

Maybe they are taking a long time to get there because traffic? they only send one car but the car take forever?
Post services have you built mail boxs? and post offices?

I’ll take a look, but I’m not sure that is the problem. There is a current bug with the sorting facility and post office vehicles. Google it. It seems like a similar problem.

I don't think it's Traffic, i get this too, i started following the Ambulances as they left my Hospital(s) (I have two hospitals with 87k pop and 120% health budget) - There was no traffic along the ambulances route, it was probably 2 'real time' minutes for the ambulance to get to the location, but the symbol was still annoyingly there 'waiting for ambulance for a long time' - and yes, only 1/3rd of my vehicles ever seem to be in use at any one time.

The actual travel distance i would call 'far' - but the 'Coverage' for my hospitals is 'Green' - so it doesn't make much sense that game marks this as an issue when it's Green coverage, and vehicles are available...

I think that there maybe just needs to be a patch to increase the acceptable waiting time for the Herse and ambulance in game, before this marker/message comes up.

I thought about it in real world terms, and I was actually thinking 'damn that is actually pretty quick that my ambulance gets half way across city to the location in that time'.
