Triton Height Map Fix

Description
I found yet another error in the planet data files that the developers at Keen overlooked.
They copied the lower right mountain range of the "up.png" tile to the top left but accidentally overrode part of another mountain.

The coordinates for this error can be found in the default star system at this location:
GPS:TritonBug:-273425.71:-2398872.57:377215.76:#FF75C9F1:

Thankfully that copy paste was done with transparency so that it was possible to restore part of the overriden mountain by adjusting the brightness in GIMP. There were still some edges which I had to fix by simulating hydraulic erosion on the edges.

The seams of all height map tile edges are also fixed in this mod.

I made this mod for demonstration purposes. It will not be compatible with any other mods that modify Triton.
Other planet modders are free to include the fixed files of this mod into their own mods.

My own planet mods like Seams Fixed and Redistributed Ore have already received the fixed height map.

I did not create a new ticket for the Keen Support but mentioned this error in my old ticket if you want to upvote it:

Yes, but if you built something in the fixed region, it will be below ground.

Can you use this on an old save
