Version 2.0 - added several launch bases/locations
A new house, a new humanity
Named after the missionary Titus, the planet is the manifest destiny of a new and perfect society.
Conditions
Titus is a temperate and sandy planet. Various lichens cover the plant's surface and vary in color between red, orange, yellow, and green. Her oceans are topped in a yellow layer of algae-like bacteria that help maintain the atmospheric cycle. The air pressure is denser than earth, however it is liveable. As the atmosphere is twice the magnitude of Droo's, normally aspirated engines are effective on first stages when launching.
Destinations
To-date, Titus has seven launch bases to travel between; it’s a pilots dream!
Conquest Island Launch Base
Conquest island is a large sandy dune with ancient mesas that are covered in light green to brown vegetation, this area is perfect for enthusiastic buggy drivers and pilots who like to land on wavy terrain.
Cape South Launch Base
Cape South is a gateway to Titus’s southern ice cap, these Icelandic waters are prime exploration grounds and the proximity to the mountains make for a beautiful flight setting. It’s a mountain climber’s paradise!
Grimace’s Thumb Launch Base
This launch base is located on a cape I call grimaces thumb, the continent I placed it on looks like a giant grimace lol (it’s that big purple guy from McDonalds).
Rocky Lake Launch Base
Rocky lake is named for the mountains encompassing it, the launch base is located in a valley and the local weather is great for sailing!
Silent Cove Launch Base
This is Titus’s oldest launch base, not very interesting but it’s probably the best place to launch rockets.
Sou-Montain Launch Base
This is another rocky launch base located in a region I like to call Sou-Montania, the southern rockies. Like Cape South, this is another great place for flying.
Southern Ice Launch Base
Located on the shores of the Southern Cap, this is the coldest base currently established. The Icecaps have never been touched and this is the furthest south I’ve been
Place Your Own Launch Base!
I'm asking players to name various locations and Prospect for launch base locations!
Players are invited to comment the coordinates of any location (like mountain tops, deltas, or islands) along with a desired name for the location and I will include it every new update!
Launch Base Rules & Naming Conventions
To have a launch base placed, the location and heading you select must allow the bottom of the structure to be in full contact with the ground as well as allow the runway and launchpad surfaces to be above ground. Launch bases in or over water wont be accepted.
Names are very flexible, however the name of your location or launch base must be no more than 20 characters long (not including the words 'launch base' or 'airport') and the name must mean something in a real language.
Place names shouldn’t be named as a city or town unless it has a launch base, and regional names won’t often be accepted.
If you name something that has already been named or place a launch base too close to another (for my taste), It can't be used and I will let you know.
Coordinates must be exact!
I am very flexible with place names, if you would like to name a place but feel it might not align with the rules, feel free to ask!
The tallest mountain is mine wherever that may be!
I reserve the right to reject launch bases and locations I disagree with, but I will always explain why!
