Q: Video game where you play a miniature female demon with a large gun

FuzzyBootsA few years back (around 2015-2017, I think), I ran into a game on Steam that sounded interesting, but not enough for me to spring for the full price. The gameplay showed in the video had a miniature female demon holding a regular size hand-gun (larger than she was) running around a house and att...

Q: story-identification questions with multiple answers

Jason GoemaatIs there a consensus on how to handle questions that might have multiple valid answers when the question author is looking for a specific story? I ran into this on retro computing SE also that some people think there is only one 'right' answer that the original poster is looking for. An examp...

Q: Female astronaut travels through a wormhole and finds out, that she's being pulled into a black hole

Once, when flying together with...

@SQB Thanks, but not really - same amount of work as before ;)

Q: Comic short post apocalyptic : Last men on earth killed by a dead man

DaseBeen looking for this for almost three decades now, tried googling a variety of combinations but have yet to turn up anything useful. I read this short comic back in about '93-96 (definitely no later than '98) in what I think was a swedish comic magazine (likely collecting stuff from 2000 AD and ...

I hope it is ok to ask here.
I am looking for a sci-fi (adjacent) building/craft to replicate in minecraft for a project of mine.
Ideally it is something with proportions close to 1x1x2, with the "2" being the height.

For the moment I have considered a WH40k necron (doomsday) monolith, but I'd like to hear, if possible, other alternatives.

thanks

Sure, it's okay to ask here.
The first object that comes to mind is The Monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey, but its dimensions are famously 1:4:9.
yeah, not the best for what I had in mind, but I did not think of that yet, thanks

How about an AT-ST? They're roughly 1:1:2.
that could work, yes
@SQB Well, if you stack 4 of them you get 4:4:9, which is really close. :)

@Federico I suggest the Tardis from Doctor Who.

@b_jonas oooh, that's a good one

Hi @Federico! Haven't seen you for a while. Hope non-mod life is treating you well :-)
I don't know anything about Minecraft - how fancy shapes can you get for this 1x1x2 thing? And how important is it that 2 should be the height? Babylon 5 has a superb range of spacecraft designs for all the different alien races, but the shapes are quite complex and having 2 as the height would make them sort of "stood on end" (could be flying vertically though).

@Federico Some of the arcologies in SimCity 2000 (specifically the Plymouth and Forest arcologies) are very close to 1:1:2. (The Darko arcology is about 1:1:2.5 and the Launch arcology is closer to 1:1:3.)
@Randal'Thor hi! not too bad, thank you. bit stressed with job hunting
@Randal'Thor unfortunately the space available is shaped with 2 in the vertical direction. In terms of details, I could have details down to 1/240th of one short side for this project.
@DavidW nice! I played it quite a lot and I liked it, that's another good one, thanks!
@Federico Good luck!
