Aurelia is a Cities: Skylines series focused on building a semi-realistic futuristic city. The city is influenced by cyberpunk and other sci-fi styles. It mostly revolves around a high-density urban theme with lots of verticality and elements that are either completely made up or inspired by cities and structures from all around the world, architectural concepts or flat out fiction. To achieve all this, the gameplay is heavily altered by mods. The city favours public transport and walking, but because of Aurelia’s role as a regional centre, there is an extensive highway network as well.
PC specs are in the channel's About page. No, the game doesn't run like this in real time. It is recorded slow and made faster in editing.

Aurelia ep. 104 - Ігри
The first guy I've seen who's ever finished his city in cityskylines. Great work man look really cool.
And we had some close calls with this as well - he took a somewhat lengthy hiatus before the pandemic and then fortunately came back as if nothing happened.
There has been plenty of cities done, two dollars, skib, dirty H and that amazing mars city... but Aurelia has been a very special journey tbh
@@fmartingorb The Mars city - which is still my favorite C:S project to date has unfortunately not been finished yet. CityWok CityWall left a long note on his patreon about being sick of the dumb politicized YT comments he was getting on that project and in any case, it was a very difficult project. He's been working on another C:S project and a C:S inspired video game along with another prominent asset creator, but I'm cautiously optimistic that he'll resume uploading Mars vids.
@@unknownPLfan that is a reason to finish
@@fmartingorb to be fair none of those youtubers you mentioned have finished any project at all except for maybe 2 dollars… I might be wrong but I don’t recall Skib fully finishing anything, Dirty H cut his NZ series short due to technical difficulties and CityWok hasn’t finished Mars yet apparently is getting tired of it
The amount of thought put into this is almost terrifying. It's more thought than what most ACTUAL city planners put into there REAL plans. This is truly remarkable. Wow.
thats because actual city planners are not also architects, roadway engineers, director of public transit and park designers. theres so many parts of making a city a city planner has no say over. hence they dont put them into the plans, a city planner is responsible for the layout of new developments, limited by where its allowed to build. zoning in different parts of the city, limited by the policies and laws put in place. and making sure site developers aren't making plans that would conflict with the cities goals. essentially a city planner is a overseer of the different developers. while here he has the role of the roadway engineer, urban developer, public transport director, and many many more. giving him not only more controll, but more work
Imagine, if you will, if there was a UA-cam channel where viewers could propose a building or project to be added and the UA-camr was only really able to approve or deny the proposals.
Then we could judge them in comparison with city planners, as of right now "mayors" in cities skylines are more of a dictator. Basically Tropico without the tropical dictator social commentary.
The problem with real life city planning, basically, was the lack of coordination/communication between the different departments of city planning.
Amazing! One of the coolest cities I've ever seen, and transportation is my favorite part of the game so I really appreciate the overview!
this is an incredible system truly, in real life that central station definitely isnt big enough to have capacity for long distance lines but its great as a local transit train hub
My total favourite city in cities skylines, I've throughly enjoyed the development and journey with you, thanks Arkaus.
This city is absolutely insane. Something straight out of the year 2300 (gotta give some time for humanity to rebuild from the apocalypse) It's hard to identify any real world cities from which you drew inspiration. (brand new Chinese cities maybe?) In alot of ways makes this build far more impressive: you're not trying to rebuild or emulate anything, you are simply doing you, what works, and what is logical, and this build is very logical, insanely detailed and every city corner, semicircle or wedge intersection offers something new and unique. I remember watching some early builds years ago and I am impressed to see you complete to the extent that you have. Although this is a fantasy city, there is enough diversity in everything that you have done that it reads like a satellite image of real city...This is the most realistic futuristic city build I have seen anyone do thus far.
And boy does it look like it took you forever. Mad props to you...even if designing and building this thing sorta kinda makes you a monster ;)
Finally a youtuber who puts real effort into a realistic, functional and beautiful public transport network.
I wish more creators would do this, your work is amazing and I sincerely hope you have a great holiday season
Many MANY thanks for adding that final Olli line to the northern suburbs - this way Aurelia can remain the public transport dream city it's meant to be! As a bonus we even got a shot from one of its most beautiful skylines (all these towers + the pyramid on the background, with the green cities low density houses and Olli vehicles on the foreground).
I hope we can see some more shots from unusual angles now that the city is finished - I'm sure we could spend another dozen of episodes just enjoying its beauty.
Congratulations again for completing this amazing project!
Aaah! So complex, beautiful and done! The CS wizard deserves an award for best city builder on the net!
I have 400+ hours in this game and never quite finished a city. This is really great work, very detailed.
This public transport system looks like a professional system, amazing. Definitly could learn alot from this, My CS creations can't compare to this at all
Aurelia started out as a very ambitious project, and you have succeeded in your endeavor. It's funny, because there is no such thing as a "finished" city, right? The inhabitants are born, grow, and die off, and the cycle repeats itself. Cities change constantly, even if limits are placed on their lateral growth (which I appreciate that you used as a constraint). I very much admire the sensibilities you demonstrated in this build. It is beautiful, thought-provoking, and shows quite a lot of elegance in the engineering. Thank you for sharing such meticulous work.
I thought I seen beautiful city's before but the aerial view on this is amazing. I'm definitely going to start watching your content.
Daymn, this is truly how public transportation should be handled! Really inspiring
I need some of those buildings in my game I loveee how the train tracks go through buildings and it's all so seamingless, it reminds me of a few underground stops in London
Most Unique C:S build ever! Totally in a category of its own! mind=blown!
Slight public transport nerd here: Transport-technically this is an excellently connective network, and I am incredibly impressed. This is seriously one of the bus transport networks I've ever seen in cities Skylines.
If you'd be interested in some minor feedback: There is a few minor quality-of-use things I'd consider doing differently:
I'd take out the bus connection to the southernmost rail station in the suburbs and connect the two buses in the suburb together. The connection to that railway station is largely redundant while local cross-connectivity in that area of the suburbs is rather poor, which could easily be solved this way.
In-line with this above philosophy, the second change would be the introduction of a ferry line that actually serves a notable public transport purpose rather then just beaty: Starting at the waterfront suburban bus terminal and heading to the downtown stadiums and mall accross the river. It gives a fast connection between the waterfront areas and the bus line to the southern suburbs to the aforementioned destinations, working as a useful feeder for people traveling between the suburbs and the stadium/mall.
I would also consider re-routing the autonomous shuttle bus in the far north-east to, instead of heading over the oval roundabout, take the next bridge down east, covering some of the areas of the suburb there that are right on that walking-distance border where the network really isn't adequate for a chunk of people living there. It does seem like this might require some infrastructural adjustments. If such adjustments aren't desirable, a second Olli to cover this bit might be an alternate solution.
*On the downtown loop bus lines:*
If cities skylines didn't frequently mess up passenger distribution when adding support lines along the same trajectories, I'd consider inserting the loop and either increasing the frequency on the busy section by adding a support line along part of the route and operating both loops and the support with smaller buses, or doing the same thing but instead dropping the frequency of the lines somewhat to run them all with articulated buses. There's substantial benefits to the increased direct connections in the convenience of use of transport- although in this case that transport planning concept might not translate too well to the game.
Yes, exactly what I was thinking! Expanding on this; you could have all the bus lines intersecting with the others. Thus creating a bus corridor network, on which you can multiply the number of lines. Then have them crisscross the network in different patterns to ensure the least possible transfers.
Now that’s a city I would love to live in
Aurelia finds itself somewhere in between the American grid and Cyberpunk-like cities of the future, while it also manages to keep itself in the realm of realism. Amazing job!
I'm very suprised by the length of the tram lines. I use trams within a small localized area. The trams share stops with the mtro lines which carry Cims the greater distance. I would have use metros for the distance of your tram lines. I guess it's time for me to rethink my transport philosphy.
I think you don't need to rethink that much. It's just that his trams are more of a hybrid; really, those are tram-trains which are light and slightly lower capacity than a conventional metro. His tram lines are long, yes, but the distance between stations are short and it runs parallel to heavier transit for the most part. So really, the trams in Aurelia still only serve a small local area, just that this "area" is more of a line than a shape within a region.
@@regulate.artificer_g23.mdctlsk Trams are local,metro are express.
Akruas you are amazingly fantastic! - This Aurelia project is so cool and so top notch well made, all designs fit the concept, colors. roads etc. 💫💫💫
Thanks for the super informative video. Very easy to see and understand the public transport network now. I would like to see videos like this from other builders.
Are you going to make similar video from Altengrad? That would be interesting to see, especially with the time progression. Like comparisons. Public transport in 1930, then 1950, 1970, 1990, 2010, etc. or whatever years you're gonna choose.
Your Public Transit is amazing
Most UA-camrs do not get it right
him, imperatur and citi planner plays are goated🤠🔛❤️
You’re such an inspiration to me. Thanks for the amazing series. I’m kinda sad the Aurora is done, because I enjoyed watching the videos
😳 Fantastic planning and layout! Great job, sir! 👏
Best CitiesSkylines Content Creator in my opinion. Keep up the great work and happy holidays!
I recognise that 1st ferry anywhere, took it to work in the Sydney CBD everyday for 6 years
this would make a great and complete transit map. good work!
Very cool, and well thought out!
This has to be the most beautiful city I've seen by far
I’ve re watched this like 3 times ur public transport pay out is s tier
Very nice work, nice transportation network!
Amazing job!
GREAT JOB....BRAVO
Oh my god this is the most beautiful city I’ve ever seen in this game
Thanks a lot Akuras ☺️
Very good public transport system !
This is awesome! Amazing city!
Oh my God, i wish my government design my city’s public transportation like this
I had never hear of this.. This is a really cool city
Great video!
What Akruas explaining his public sounds like to a noob:
So this is a bus, obviously, but it serves as a tram unless its underground because then its more like a metro but with little stops its actually more a train. Obviously.
Real city planners and C:S experts:
Ah yes. But did you consider moving it on a boat to serve as a ferry?
🤣🤣
Love your builds!
Happy holidays to you buddy
Lots of cities have different levels of light rail transit - e.g. some cities in Europe have mostly street running tram lines that go underground in short downtown segments that are called "pre-metros" and others have both trams and light rail where a particular line might run more like a tram in some areas and run more like a subway in others - like Stuttgart and basically most other larger German cities.
@@unknownPLfan The Hague in the Netherlands is interesting in regards to that subject:
RandstadRail lines 3 and 4 basically work as a fully grade-seperated regional rail line (former regional rail allignment actually) in the south-east where it also shares parts of it's route with a Rotterdam metro line (which also is running on former regional rail allignments in that area), then are elevated and tunneled in the city centre and continue into the west of The Hague as a street running tram.
The fact it's basically essentially a metro (giving combined frequency with an actual metro on the same tracks part of the way), regional rail (Section to Zoetermeer), tram (west of the hague) and grade-seperated lightrail (Central area) at the same time, while running with (partially) low-floor light-rail vehicles originally intended for regional-tram services (rather then local ones). This makes it an excellent example of a city transport system that really blurs the line between different modes of railway transportation.
Love Aurelia!
I really enjoy your channel very well explained, I have learned a lot, plus you don"t have that stupid laugh
every 20 seconds like others, your really great glad your around.
I could've sworn there were some loop Olli bus lines connecting the neighborhoods around one or two of the crater complexes though. Did you remove those?
Yes, it was useless.
There is just something hypnotic when it comes to listen to people with a European (Germany all the way to Russia) talk about infrastructure and city planning which is relaxing to listen to. P.s great video
Very well done. What is the population of the city?
Amazing,can you make a short story of the whole city exploration
Hopefully you still continue with the series and build square each of the whole map
I quite like Ur network! Though I have 2 suggestions: On the tramline that ends in the very opper right (north-east?) corner in that residential area, I would have build a ring and lead the line back on one of its 2 other small bridges upper "north". On that way, this area would be much better connected. U could even build one more sation on the north shore on the main island, if U'd lead the line together over that bridge back where the busline passes as well. The second gap that sprung into my eyes concerns the shore-area on the main-island, opposite to that artificial orange star-island: There I would suggest to carry on the tram-line that ends at the round building, "south" untill to the first light-rail station there. Other than that, the city looks ro me quite perfectly connected.
Most complex public transport system in
city skylines so far.
This is not complex, its sleek and functional
You should see my complex transport with endless overlapping and overkill bus lines which are driving with 20% capacity😂
That airport is better connected than some IRL airports lol. Nice work though, stunning city
amazing city
Awesome city!!
on my opinion, this city is a biggest and the must beautiful I've seen
Please, show us what graphic mods you used to city's service transport and buildings(police, fire, hospitals, trash and schools) and how do they look like
damn thats the stuff!!
the more i look a t the map of the city it looks like if Manhattan was surrounded by mountains with jfk on the side. is it safe to say he city was some strategically planned high-density business hub city state considering the lack of sprawl or reasonably sized residential areas given the scaled to the city center+buildings? this isn't a hate comment just curious about how it would originate without suburbia or historical buildings to tell a story of hw it came to look like that.
Maybe it's a modern city, as it was built recently all at once. There are many cities around the world that are built from scratch without any population.
I don't even have this game nor play it, but adding high-speed trains for long distance like the TGV would be cool, if it's a thing in the game.
will you actually make the map available to the community in some form?
I would love to know if my PC can still handle the map (even if it's only 10 FPS...) xD
I wish it had 10 FPS. I'll try to upload it for some final showcase.
It looks great, nice that you explain your decision for the public transport.
I just wanted to ask one question: I do not get why for you there is difference between tram / lightrail. For me this is absolutely the same.
I’m not a transit guy.
But from what I’ve observed. People seem to draw a distinction between ‘trams that run substantially on roads’ and light rail/‘trams that run on (almost) fully segregated networks’.
So a light rail is more like a train. But what makes it not a train is the frequency, weight of the carriages(this affects the visual appearance and also acceleration and braking meaning in a pinch it can manage running on unsegregated tracks), lower speed(60/80mph max vs 100/120mph), and most importantly the height platforms, a light rail should have no step between the platform and carriage, whereas a system does have that step, which makes it substantially harder to have disabled and buggy access.
@@MrCalls1 Thank you, I you make great sense. Just not up to with mph :)
@@MrCalls1 So Basically just like a bus with dedicated bus road?
I love it
What population did you reach during the series, please?
200k
Hi what map theme are you using and LUT?
will you submit it to City Planner Plays City Tips?
Nice

Could you upload your save file somewhere, i really need to see this city in game :D
Neat!
I wanna know the mods you used for Aurelia man, I wanna build city like that
you ever gonna fix the freeways with the node controller mod? or even add the shoulder lanes on the freeways you claimed there would be back in episode 1?
I guess that has fallen down the priorities list and has probably become unnecessary at this point.
Do CIMs make rational decisions while using your transport? I.e. do they alternate between the various lines to get from A to B in the fastest way possible?
Probably. I think that might be the reason why there's so much more pedestrian traffic and not much cars going around even in expressways.
@@regulate.artificer_g23.mdctlsk I played once Cities in Motion 2, developped by the same guys. When it comes to pathfinding, it was a disaster, that's why I was asking.
@@jasiekzar huh. I never heard of that game before.
What amount of population would this kind of city maintain in the real world?? My guess is 300k+
Huh? More than that ofc. My city irl has 1m population yet it has no functioning and reliable public transport
Well... It isn't very realistic plan for transport system, but as you said many, many times: Aurelia does not have to be a realistic city, it has to be something what you will be proud of and what you will like. And I believe that you achieved that goal, which makes me too happy. I can't wait for other videos overviewing Aurelia, and videos about the development of Altengrad after some ecent in 40.
I think the only thing really unrealistic about it is that few real world cities have the budget for such a dense rail transit network. It's perhaps aspirational more than anything else. The downtown parts of Aurelia are also REALLY dense from the looks of it.
@@unknownPLfan Well, I think that it depends on the people who are managing the functions of the city and money. But I thought more about this that in real life there are some reasons why there are bus or tram stops which are used by more than only one line. People do not like changing the vehicles, so city authorities are making lines that are changing routes to avoid that annoying changes in vehicles.
I hope you dont be angry if i say you are totaly crazy :D this city is too awesome :D
