New Planet Unnamed - Realistic Sci Fi Universe

[ranger]

Earth sided planet
more axial tilt, temperature spread more evenly, slightly cooler than earth, causing more temperate climate

It has tectonics just they dont move often, they caused most of the smaller islands from upheval, the larger continents are just higher areas in the middle of rather large plates and continental shelves

in addition, im going on the assumption that we have here on earth on where most of our metals are actually from
The Earth's most precious metals arrived on meteorites (Wired UK)

this solar system has far more asteroids than sol system, bombarding the planet with very heavy asteroids in the recent past, more recent times last million years or so has seen a decrease due to gravational influence of nearby gas giants sweeping up most of the non standard orbits of asteroids, while the system has 3 fairly dense asteroid belts and 4 gas giants of similar size to jupiter, one in the inner system, and the other 3 in the outer system

this planet is slightly farther out in orbit of its habital zone causing the slight decrease in temperature, with the oceans keeping the temperature stabilized, it has large portions that are relativly shallow oceans allowing them to be warmer over a greater area, but its circulation patterns keeping the oceans from being much warmer than the tropical areas of the earth waters. This warm water causes alot more moisture in the air, thus releasing it on the land, yet 2 deserts sill exist on the planet due to hadley cells, and cooler water convergence
attached map to show rough biomes and rough tectonics


also I am toying with the idea of 2 moons
