KSP2 graphics improved a lot, and for that they used textures, for parts we can use up to 6 textures. Diffusion, Metallic, Occlusion, Normal, Emission and Paint Map, the later being a custom texture used by the Scenery - Standard (Opaque) shader.
Diffusion texture
KSP2's diffusion map is pretty simple, it's a simple "mask" telling the shader where each color should be. This texture is used only when no paint is applied, Also, this texture is shown where there's a blue pixel in the Paint Map texture.
Tips and Tricks:
- The base color used by the game is 0, 0, 0.98 (HSV)
- The game overlays the diffusion texture with the ambient occlusion to be more RAM efficient.
Metallic texture
This texture tells the shader how reflective a given pixel should be, the higher the alpha on said pixel the more reflective it will be. Every pixel on this texture should be white and you should only change the opacity of the pixels. This is overwritten by the Paint Map's opacity when a pixel is marked as painted (either a green or red pixel).
Normal/Bump texture
A bump texture is used to give or take height on a certain pixel, affecting how shadows are casted by and to it, also affects reflections. This texture should only contain detailing and its prefered over the use of extra meshes or geometry.
