[b]Rotatable structures in the sub editor[/b], opening up a whole world of possibilities for all of you mad scientist sub editors out there. [b]Option to buy items straight to your inventory.[/b] No more need to wait for the next round to get your items, or rush to the cargo bay to beat your crewmates to the goods.
