Universe sandbox 2 making a habitable planet

I'd explore variations in that range, and I'd start at the outer edge of stable region of Jupiter's hill sphere, and if you can't get it to work, decrease the mass some more, maybe lunar mass. I am trying to set up 2 Planets in a co-orbital configuration around a Jupiter size planet similarly to Saturns moons Janus and Epimetheus. Janus and Epimethius have only 50 km variation in their orbits, which is 1 part in 3000 of their orbital radius. You'd have to move the Mars-mass moons quite far from the planet and you'd need to keep the variation in their semi-major axes quite small. If I make any progress I'll post an update. I tried to work out the specifics for higher mass horseshoe objects, but my attempts at calculations have just sent me in circles so far. It is nearly Earth sized and it orbits within its starвЂ™s Habitable Zone, which is the area around a star where planets could have conditions necessary for supporting life as we know it. Horseshoe orbits are never stable over the long term the way trojan orbits can be, but they can be stable over numerous orbits if they are properly set up. Gliese 581g is one of the best candidates for a life supporting planet.

You could try Mars mass objects orbiting Jupiter (1/2970) and you might get that to work for a fairly extended number of orbits. So Earth mass orbiting Jupiter (1/318) won't work according to the research above. It was found that if the mass of second body becomes larger thanДЎ/1200 of the first body, horseshoe orbits become unstable. Because this has gone unanswered, and using this very nice answer as a reference, I can answer this part way.
