Brumo, a new Titan analogue

[KerikBalm]

So I will release this soon, and I know there are already some titan analogues out there (Huygens from JNSQ, Tekto from OPM), but whatever, I wanted to make my own.

It uses a high-res heightmap (8192 x 4096) that is a (mostly) composite of real terrain data. Respect to anyone who can pick out the real world locations used to make most of this heightmap:

There is one section there that made heavy use of the spot healing tool from photoshop

Here are some screenshots at 1x rescale (I normally play somewhere between 3 to 6.25x rescale), from a few different iterations:

Ooops, meant for ksp1

And now that's where it is.

Where would Brumo orbit?

This is so cool! Is it a planet or a moon?

I added a gas giant, "Soong", for it to orbit.

Here's my modified system at Stock scale:

Take the whole thing*, or just take Soong and Brumo

* The whole thing changes the stock system up significantly:

Spoiler

Moho: surface gravity increased

Eve: Size and surface gravity decreased, atmospheric pressure multiplied 4x, now a more proper Venus analogue

Kerbin: No change:

Mun: Size decreased, moved to where Minmus is in stock

Minmus: Size decreased, moved to Soong (as an enceladus analogue)

+Eki: a small rocky body at Kerbin's pseudo L4 lagrange point

Dres: Size and surface gravity decreased, as a more proper Ceres analogue

+Rald: A habitable planet 3/4th the radius of Kerbin, where Duna dormally is

Duna: Surface gravity increased ~25%, atmospheric pressure decreased by a factor of 3, procedural craters added. Orbits Rald

Ike: procedural craters added, orbits Soong

+Pact: a Pallas analogue

+Vot: A vesta analogue

Jool: Surface gravity increased

Laythe: SMA increased, size, gravity, and atmospheric pressure decreased

Tylo: SMA increased, size, and gravity decreased

Val: SMA increased, gravity decreased, I forget what I did with it's size (changed it to be more like something proportionately 1.5x the radius of europa)

Bop: SMA increased, I forget what exactly I did with it's size (changed it to be more like a callisto analgoue, but something proportionately 1.5x the radius)

Pol: SMA increased

+Soong: A saturn analogue

+Bruma: A titan analogue

Eeloo: SMA increased so it is in orbital resonance with Soong instead of Jool

Are other moons coming to soong or do you have something else in mind? Also, is soong larger or smaller than jool?

Will you add images of Soong?

Well, I ended up wanting to make a binary star system in memory of the dream that was KSP2, so I got a bit distracted, but have changed up the kerbol system.

See my post here:

Soong is getting Ike and Minmus (Duna gets Gilly instead, and Eve gets nothing), and procedural asteroids.

Soong uses Saturn's color map, and is smaller than jool, in that same proportion as Saturn to Jupiter.

Don't have the rings working quite right yet
