This almost wraps up Alpha 7, I'll do a final hotfix if necessary, and then it's on to Alpha 8.
Alpha 8 will initially focus on the feature mechanic. I will start overhauling the feature selection list into a tree view with all features visible, inverting the need vs. feature dependencies, so you don't have to pick a visual tool for software without 2D/3D(will also allow me to split 2D and 3D software), and adding researchable and patentable features, which will add some interesting company interactions in regards to the stock market.
