Huge Commercial Block and Canal Valley - Cities: Skylines - Aurelia #79

[@jackbeal2503]

The cinematic shot at 23:33 was the single greatest shot I have seen in city skylines

[@7th_CAV_Trooper]

At 21:00 you mention using trams for aesthetic reasons. I agree with you. I'm very new at Cities (

[@ifruitguy004]

Hey Akruas, I love your content. I would recommend adding some assets, market stalls, and more decorations around Aurelia City's large pavements and empty spaces to make the city more lively

[@BakuSudoku]

Everytime I hear "there's no car infrastructure" I feel true happiness hehe. This is future right there!

[@spongy7x]

Yes! I can't imagine a utopian city with massive streets and highways running through the downtown (like in some US cities)

[@Xondar11223344]

Reclaiming our urban spaces from cars is something I'm a huge advocate for.

[@LexLExistor]

I mean, you still need roads for deliveries, utilities/maintenance, EMS/police/fire, busses etc

[@fmobus]

that trick at 3:50 just makes node controller SO MUCH FREAKING USEFUL

[@madmanthan21]

18:50, don't know if you knew already, but there are a couple of ground level power systems for trams en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-level_power_supply en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alstom_APS Also, you do need road vehicle infrastructure, for stuff like ambulance, fire and police services. And also for moving trucks or maintenance equipment.

[@Xondar11223344]

I rewatched the episodes from when this side of the river was being built in anticipation of this, and I'm glad to see the styles that were established a long time ago are continuing. One thing I do miss is the cinematics with the music. I used to chill out and imagine living in Aurelia while they played.

[@ShakilAhmed-kf5nd]

That looks like an awesome place to actually live in. Often when I'm building in Cities, the places are bland or not exciting. But this looks like a place I would go to on holiday

[@tylermatteson7289]

Regarding the verticality, this area has a similar feeling to some the crater wall builds from Mars. Very cool.

There are overground and elevated metros built into the game now from Sunset Harbor

[@iSevenSimmer]

exactly.... lmao

[@Akruas]

Just a train then.

[@PauxloE]

If you want visible high-capacity public transport, you could have the overground metro which was added with Sunset Harbor (and before that with the Metro Overhaul mod). Though I don't know whether there are any vehicles and stations which fit the Aurelia style. (And now it might be a bit late to add them without destroying half the city.)

[@Akruas]

Exactly, too late to add new transportation types.

[@MrLynx777]

Great work! Maybe my favourite area in Aurelia! Love the tram! The mall center seems a mix of La Défense near Paris (where i stay) and Bangkok (for exemple the MBK mall center)

[@unknownPLfan]

idk, on the matter of having higher capacity rapid transit, the conventional rail system you have sort of fits that mold - If I'm not mistaken I think it's probably a 1 to 2 kilometer distance between some of those stops towards the center of that city? though I've sort of also thought about how trams are better for sprawling medium density cities and a it would be realistic to have a metro with a few underground stops simply because there's such a dense urban core but it's not a huge deal unless your city approaches half a million imo. Another thing I noticed is that it might be better to have the higher capacity light rail be completely grade separated (I think there are a couple of spots where it isn't), while the washing machine trams could be more street-car like while still mostly grade separated as well.

[@Akruas]

Yes, but the city needs to look good first. Building an underground system just isn't interesting at all here. Of course it would have underground system IRL. A bit too late in the series to completely separate the light rails, also it's not that bad, the light rails still do have much more unobstructed paths compared to the trams.

[@caiovalente1672]

This is HELLA cool. Aurelia at its best

[@JoJoeWood]

Another amazing addition to Aurelia!

[@wrong1029]

my new favorite part of the city. outstanding!

[@cooperbutler-brown7283]

You could use Mono rail could be a good metro alternative for arelia. Use MOM for altengrade with the classic tracks and stations

[@namenamename390]

Honestly, the Green Cities Buildings are stunning. The residential Buildings look really good, and the IT cluster offices look even cooler. I was hesitant about buying Green Cities, but I just recently realised how amazing the added buildings look, so I'm glad I bit the bullet when I bought it.

[@pinolillo1666]

As it was said before "it just fit so well"

[@desto13c]

Vertically beautiful.

[@wizmo57]

man , you keep improving somehow .... amazing work. still my fav CS series

[@thefreakinguy100]

Hey! Maybe you can add some helipads or heliports for the rich to just fly in? Add some on top of buildings and maybe a couple down in the canyon’s ground level

[@Akruas]

There are no rich, people already ate them.

[@phonetresoldi]

I would add grass on the rooftops of the green cities dlc buildings. Then it would look even better!

[@LenhaRDT0130]

im not a fan of metros too, and monorails,, but im using high capacity trams with around 200 to 400 cap at 3 to 4 cars,, just found them in the WS

[@R2_the_lime]

Call it “The Canyon”

[@patrick86806]

So satisfying to watch!

[@syliusnkazi7583]

Good video ! Monorails with magnetic trains - why not an hyperloop station ;)

[@Akruas]

City too big already, would need to rework all of it to fit other types of transportation.

[@KyNYC212]

Still stunning!!

[@ApatheticNonbuynary]

21:27 there's a skytrain metro doe?

So it's just a train, which the city already has. I meant subway.

[@williankall]

Awee im waiting for it

[@spartan117zm]

Is there any chance you’d consider adding a monorail or a maglev to ease the transportation comments? I think a maglev as a long distance option would be cool, and then a monorail would add to the aesthetics of the city since you could weave it in and out of buildings as you saw fit and you can see it operating

[@Akruas]

Too late now in the series to add transportation types, would have to rework half the city, also monorail doesn't really have much Workshop content, apart from the maglev conversion etc.

[@孝欽顯皇后葉赫那拉氏]

you should build some schools, universities, police station, hospitals and fire stations.

[@idcaf]

I think you hide aircon props and various utility props on the roofs a bit too much. Thats why Aurelia looks a bit too sterile and neat. Have you considered actually using prop-it-up mod to disable these props because now they still exist for no reason because they are hidden and unnecessarily use up your prop limit.

[@Akruas]

If you refer to the buildings under the highway, that appears more times in the city with the roof exposed, so props would be missing there.

Hello! I was wondering if anybody knows how to remove the tram cable like in the video! I can't find a mod for it. Thanks!

why not use MOM overground metros, if not being visible is your main qualm?

[@Akruas]

Overground metro is just another train, we already have that. Besides, the city can't fit another transportation type.

[@incompetencelogistics8924]

@@Akruas true, metros IRL are just cramped trains in tubes or above ground, so that's fair. Maybe if a proper maglev came around would you try it?

If you don't want metro because you rather have public transport on the surface why don't you use monorail? I think monorails driving squeezed between Aurelia's skyscraper would look amazing.

[@Akruas]

Not enough station options for monorails and would have to rebuild half the city to fit it.
