Including gas giants with habitable moons, how many planets could you fit into the habitable of the sun or a similar star without there being any issues from tidal forces? How would they be arranged?

At minimum, 3. Venus, Earth, and Mars are all in the habitable zone.

How easy would it be for a habitable zone gas giant to have moons humans could live on, anyways?

not much, you'd be constantly bombarded with radiation from the gas giant.
Jupiter:

Also Saturn:

>The saturnian radiation belts are generally much weaker than those of Jupiter and do not emit much microwave radiation (with frequency of a few Gigahertz). Estimates shows that their decimetric radio emissions (DIM) would be impossible to detect from the Earth.[49] Nevertherless the high energy particles cause weathering of the surfaces of the icy moons and sputter water, water products and oxygen from them.[48]
In short, it might be able to support some odd bacterial colony that would have found its way there, but not likely anything else.

The life that "inhabits" a planet seem to have something shady in its nature. It's like impostor life.

Anyone have a map of the habitable zones on earth? the 2020 update though?

Planet being in habbitable zone is not necessary habittable, especially by humans.

Usually it just means, liquid water.

Doesn't a planet need to be in the habitable zone for liquid surface water and enough sunlight for photosynthesis, though?

4 if you count the moon as a planet
