Version 0.122 changes:* New Part: Fixed Bomb - Attach it to anything, it\'ll explode on a hard impact (strength affects how hard the impact has to be).* New Part: Vortex - Generates a gravity field that pulls or pushes on all nearby objects/structures/etc.* New Part: Turbine Vacuum - Works similarly to the Vortex, but has a strong directional element.* New Part: Drill and Drill XL - A spinning tool of destruction.* New Part: Aiming Laser - Line things up, more or less.* Added 2 new build music tracks (cycles through them each time you go to build mode currently).* Minor updates for 2 gameplay music tracks (Destruction Complete and Manic Designs).* More code adjustments to make buildings disintegrate even less than before.* Fixed an issue where blocks acted like they were falling in water (when they weren\'t).* Structure Editor: Probably fixed an issue where saving a structure would appear to overwrite the old one (until you restarted the game).
