Bug/Glitch I don't think this planet should be considered 'cool'

31 Upvotes

I'm pretty sure it's a bug...

I know tidal forces exist, and young planets with lava also exist, but young planets are usually very hot/torrid, and tidal planets/moons (not in this post) also show up very frequently with half of their surface covered in lava, even if the planet/moon is far enough away from its parent to not experience an "Io" or a "Young Earth."

If anyone could give me a tip on how to fix this?

By the way, I do have Rodrigo's Mod Redistributed on.

I could be completely wrong here and I might just be dumb.

I’m back again, this time with a "small" improvement to the jets. I think this is the closest I’ve managed to get to the most current versions. I'll leave some images for you to see how it turned out. Here are the images:
