Step 1: put the "CustomMoonarSystem" folder into \Kitten Space Agency\Content
Step 2: add the three lines below to manifest.toml with any text editor
A customized solar system densely packed with 8 planets and 28 unique moons. I'm proud to present the
Alternate Reality Custom Moonar System!
Starts with stock EVA Cats and default rocket spawned.
Planet and Moon lore viewable with the Compendium mod, check it out here!
Huge thanks to its creator Briar Thrain for the template!
The original concept for this mod is now covered by the "Planet Only Systems" mod. It includes a stock Mars system and can be found here and includes other stock systems as well.
Alternate Reality Moonar System (lore also available in Compendium mod menu)
> The next adventure for humanity. In this alternate reality Mars has been impacted by a giant asteroid leaving a permanent scar.
> Surpassed by its once smaller sibling during the cataclysmic collisions, Phobos is now the smallest object in this system but still worth the journey.
> Permanently altered after the moon Saphina redirected hundreds of apocolyptic sized asteroids into colliding with it, this once tiny real life moon has become a much larger sight in this martian sky.
> Essentially a mental combination of minmus from ksp and mars itself, this "mini mars" is confirmed from Mars sample-returns to be made of 97% peanutbutter cookiedough and 3% mars bars...
> The largest moon in the moonar-system, boasting the highest inclination, this wandering blue jem is a beauty when spotted from a distance and stays about mid system in distance, but it's history is one of constant assault on the inner system as its gravity tends to mysteriously redirect large asteroids.
> This small icy moon orbits close to both Mynimas and Saphina in a moderately eccentric and inclined orbit, a proximity tourist of the system with possible life below the ice.
> Slightly larger than Icar, and with a 13 degree axial tilt, this resource rich moon starts lowest in the moonar-system then swings up close to Verbul with the highest eccentricity featured.
> A large highly impacted sandy/rocky moon on the outside of the moonar-system in an almost perfectly circular orbit, sits within a thin asteroid belt (not shown yet) throughout its orbit and is completely pocked with craters.
NEW in UPDATE 1.6!
> Just like Starfield, the atmosphere is gone!
> Orbiting Earth, this asteroid is a collection of trash in space, launched here in the late stages of humanity's destruction...
> A rocky planet with a trace atmosphere.
> Closest to Mercury, this moon features a yellow surface chipped away revealing a deep blue. Nicknamed "paintchip"
> Mercury now hosts this peculiar pink atmosphered moon.
> Venus' only moon, Rie is a deeply cracked rocky grey moon.
> Closest to Jupiter, this moon features long light color valleys and has an incredible view of its parent.
> Small geometrically interesting asteroid over Saturn.
> Splotchy light grey moon over Saturn.
> An atmospheric stranger over Saturn, this moon features surface water and is similar to laythe from ksp.
> A lightly colored large moon around Neptune.
> Closer to Neptune than Triton, Brutis' dramatic wide grooves cut through its upper green surface.
> A jagged dark color dwarf planet in a lonesome solar orbit between Saturn and Neptune. Little is known about Euph.
> Desc coming soon...
NEW in UPDATE 1.6.3!

formerly "CustomMarsSystem" mod
1.1 -> 1.4 reference readme.txt
1.5 - added Moon LOD meshcollection, added procedural craters to all custom moons, tweaked Deimos procedural craters further, and updated Saphina and Kin textures to be higher resolution.
1.6 - added stock planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune. added 18 moons/dwarf planets: Strobok, Insulus, Rie, Toxis, Luna, Aphere, Io, Europa, Ganymede, Mimas, Hex, Resin, Umpira, Titan, Brutis, Triton, Euph, and Eris. moved stock bodies to astronomicals and modified existing moons.
to do: compress textures into .dds and ktx2, add normal maps to a few moons, add biome maps to larger moons.
1.6.1 - fixed to work with v2976, bug: Umpira atmosphere is glitched
1.6.2 - added stock planet Uranus and custom dwarf planet Daikel. added clouds to Umpira and Jupiter. tweaked various moons locations.
1.6.3 - added Compendium mod support, added custom music made back in my college days, added Cento (temporarily Resin texture, meant to remove this moon until next version, oops guess i'll leave it) and Sobo asteroid, tweaked various moons, and removed Umpiras atmosphere temporarily, was causing crashes, hoping to fix for a big clouds and oceans update...

Stock assets used are property of Rocketwerkz
Mercury, Earth, Mars, Mynimas, Saphina, Kin, Verbul, Icar, Europa, Umpira, and Triton textures/height maps were created using multiple stock Rocketwerkz planet/moon textures blended/layered and altered, and are derivative art, not my own in source.
Strobok, Insulus, Rie, Aphere, Hex, Resin, Brutis, Euph, Daikel, Cento, and Sobo are custom textures/height maps and were created from photography I took around my workshop, they are free to be used in other works, just send me a link so I can check it out too!
Music was created by me back in 2017 during college and was unreleased until now, just like above they are free to be used in other works, just send me a link so I can check it out!
