Some help needed : I created the following sim : * started with 2 bodies , Earth (1 Earth mass ) and Moon ( 0.1 Earth mass ) * tuned the orbital parameters so that the come very close * ran the sim backwards in order to have some safe distance between the two bodies . * then changed their masses to 0.5 M and 0.05 M respectively , being the cores * then added 300 bodies to each , with diameter 50 km and Sma 3500,6000 for Earth and Sma 1250,2000 for the moon , and having masses 0,00165 and 0,000165 Me , so that each envellope has a mass of 0.5 Me and 0.05 Me for the moon * the result should be 2 bodies surrounded by a dense cloud , being their envellopes . To my surprise , when running the sim al of the 300 + 300 bodies got a mass 0 instead of the inputted masses ( visible through the "Edit" menu ) . Also the diameters ( set at 50 km +/- 0 ) seem to vary , ie not being equal to 50 km I'm wondering if this odd behaviour is due to the "." , "," issue ? Can somebody repeat some part of the setup ?
