They always dodge the question of toilets.

You should have gone before we left
But I didn't need to go then.
It's like a JRPG house. Who needs anything more than a kitchen and a bedroom?
Mandalorian was the first show to address this, they finally showed us an onboard star wars toilet
Porthole window. Problem?
In space no-one can hear your intestines being unspooled by hard vacuum.
Probably like airplane toilets except everything gets sucked out into space.
That sounds like. A disaster waiting to happen. Just stick a lightsaber around the bend and vapourise the waste.
Waste in airplane toilets goes into a tank to be emptied by ground crews.
The amazing thing to me was learning that it's a much smaller ship than it felt when I first saw the movies. I always thought the original Falcon Kenner toy that had the removable top (and was huge and heavy for a toy) was likely not a great scale, but it was reasonable. I mean if I really looked at even the first movie closely back then I suppose I could have extrapolated, but it felt big on the screen. Says something about size not mattering where it counts.
But a cargo pusher like a tug boat doesn't have to be big to be effective. That theory both blew my mind and remains canon.
I have a whole book of these. The edition I have covers the first seven films. Beautiful cutaways.
Wasn't there an issue in the beginning that the physical sets didn't quite match the models?I'm sure I read somewhere about someone having trouble trying to create the plans of the Falcon as if it was a real ship.
I’ve never heard that, but it sounds plausible.
I don't remember sidewinder missiles ever coming up in Star Wars
Concussion missiles, weapons which come up a decent amount in old EU works.
Supposedly in Return Of The Jedi the Falcon fired a pair of concussion missiles at the Death Star II reactor. The visual effect has the weapons coming from in between the prongs like where they are drawn in the cutaway, although the sound effect sounds very much like a turbo laser.
