| Aug 28 at 20:12 | comment | added | Mike | The crazy thing about all of this is that I generated this world and its moon with Tyge Sjostrand's World Generator. At first I thought it would be tidally locked, and felt that as a world to explore/colonize, it would be uninteresting. Turns out to be one of the most unique worlds I ever made! | |

| Aug 27 at 2:12 | comment | added | Mike | This is above and beyond anything I was expecting. It confirmed something I was beginning to realize as I started trying to answer the question myself. I was finding I would have approximately 2 versions of each season, a "cold" one and a "hot one". The end result would be one really weird world. | |
| Aug 26 at 1:51 | comment | added | Ash | @Mike Yes, and the middle line represents the long term average insolation, which I think is around 0.80 of Earth's radiation budget. I left off any actual values because I was looking to give an idea of the patterns rather than having the hard numbers for seasonal temperatures that I'd like to able to give you. | |
| Aug 25 at 14:30 | comment | added | Mike | And the horizontal lines mean level of insolation, with the middle line representing what value? | |
| Aug 24 at 11:54 | comment | added | Ash | @Mike Yes, as stated the graph is net insolation over a decade. Each vertical dotted line marks one year. | |

| Aug 23 at 15:35 | comment | added | Mike | Wow. That is insanely complicated; much more than I would have expected. But this was a lot of work on your part. Many thanks! The only thing I'm unsure of is the graph itself; what are the graph lines' values in terms of insolation? | |
