MY POLIS DESIGNER (マイポリスデザイナー) is the main unlock event of beatmania IIDX 31 EPOLIS. It started on December 7th, 2023. [[e-amusement]] is required to play the event, and it will appear with one player only.


At the end of a round of play, you will earn METRON to unlock songs, as well as earn tiles that can be used to build up your own metropolis and earn more METRON. How many tiles you earn at the end of a round is based on the following:
At the end of each playthrough, the player choose one of the maps to build their own metropolis. The number of area tiles are given to the player based on the following conditions:
* 1 area tile when playing STANDARD START.
* 2 area tiles when playing PREMIUM START (Japanese cabinets only)
* Using a DJ VIP PASS BLACK with any of the above two doubles the number of tiles awarded.
* Playing PREMIUM FREE will always award 2.5 area tiles, regardless of time selected.


* Standard Start will grant you 1 tile
These tiles can be used to build one of four buildings, which increases the base METRON awarded:
* Premium Start (Japan only) will grant you 2 tiles
* Tourism Areas (観光エリア) which grant more METRON based on your DJ Level (3 METRON plus 1 for a A grade or better)
* Using a DJ VIP PASS BLACK with any of the above two will grant you 2 more tiles on top of the tiles given to you on that particular Start
* Office Areas (オフィスエリア) which grant more METRON based on your Clear lamp (3 METRON plus 1 for a regular CLEAR lamp or better)
* Premium Free will always grant you 2.5 tiles regardless of time chosen
* Downtown Areas (繁華街エリア) which grant more METRON every play in general (30 METRON)
* Bank Areas (銀行エリア) which grants more METRON when you're not playing (1 METRON every four hours; up to 40 for one week)


These tiles can be used to build one of four buildings:
Buildings can be constructed at any area blank tiles (indicated as a "planned construction" signage); upon construction, either the building can be upgraded (increasing the area level up to 10, except Banks) or demolished to build a new building (by pressing the VEFX button). Higher levels increases the multiplier bonus and METRON output.


* Tourism Areas (観光エリア) which grant more METRON based on your DJ Level
The overall area level is displayed at the bottom left of the screen. Each map have 20 area tiles; building and upgrading enough areas increases the overall area level (capped at 50), which also influence the base bonus multiplier for the non-bank buildings itself (capped at 10). Reaching certain levels will also award EPO and V-Discs.
* Office Areas (オフィスエリア) which grant more METRON based on your Clear Type
* Downtown Areas (繁華街エリア) which grant more METRON every play in general
* Bank Areas (銀行エリア) which grants more METRON when you're not playing, up to one week


Using a tile on an area that is already occupied will level up that area up to 10, raising the effects of that area and how much METRON you can earn from it. After you're finished with the designer, pressing the START button will bring up the music shop where you can use your METRON to unlock songs and their charts, and pressing it again will end the session.
There are two different factors that contribute to the bonus, with a default base value of 1 (any multiplier changes will take effect on the next credit):
* Bank areas increases by 2.5 per each building level, for up to 26.
* Tourism and Office areas increases by 0.6 per each building level, for up to 61.
* Downtown area increases by 0.2 per each building level, for up to 21.
 
Pressing the START button will exit the designer, which will present a list of songs available for unlock by spending on METRON they have accurred, and charts are unlocked in order of difficulty. Pressing the START button again closes the event screen.
