This Planet takes the place of Mercury, and is tidally locked to its parent star. A combination of the tidal forces opening volcanic vents spewing magma and ammonia and the intense radiation from it's parent star has created a magma filled ammonia-atmosphere burnt wastland in the day, with a freezing cratered glacier highland in the night.
For once I also got the tempurature to a somewhat realistic amount, that being 472 F / 245 C in the day and -273 F / -170 C at night.
Also bcs in the system it'll be tidally locked to the sun, you wont ever see the glacier highlands in daylight like in the pictures.

@HyperPatch I dont like to copy and paste stuff, I want everything to be my own, but thanks for the tip!

Remember when people thought that Mercury was tidally locked? Me neither.
By the way, you should copy-paste Pedro's lava into your XML so it glows and stuff!
@HyperPatch I actually figured out that setting the water shader to a number above 1 makes it glow, so I made a better version with glowing lava and better terrain
