The current orbital limitations can be found with a neat tool - the NASA Trajectory Browser. https://trajbrowser.arc.nasa.gov/traj_browser.php?maxMag=25&maxOCC=4&chk_target_list=on&target_list=Mars&mission_class=oneway&mission_type=rendezvous&LD1=2010&LD2=2040&maxDT=2.0&DTunit=yrs&maxDV=10&min=DT&wdw_width=-1&submit=Search#a_load_results https://trajbrowser.arc.nasa.gov/traj_browser.php?maxMag=25&... The "View" and play on any of those is neat. Well, Earth - Mars isn't as neat as some other routes. I can't recall the exact settings, but I've dabbled with it in the past and had some EVEJ routes (Earth to Venus to Earth to Jupiter)

And some of those neat ones I've recalled where they are - Mars rendezvous and return. https://trajbrowser.arc.nasa.gov/traj_browser.php?maxMag=25&maxOCC=4&chk_target_list=on&target_list=Mars&mission_class=roundtrip&mission_type=rendezvous&LD1=2010&LD2=2040&maxDT=2.0&DTunit=yrs&maxDV=10&min=DT&wdw_width=-1&submit=Search#a_load_results https://trajbrowser.arc.nasa.gov/traj_browser.php?maxMag=25&... You can get routes like EVM-ME - where it does a Venus flyby on the way to Mars.
