Sub-assemblies not updating

Hello. I am in a cold sweat and need help before I have massive buyer's remorse about buying a year of Onshape.

We have an assembly with sub-assemblies in it. When I change something in the sub-assembly, it does not automatically update in the top level assembly, and I'm not even able to update it in the top-level assembly unless I create a new "version" for the sub-assembly. 

How do I get the sub-assembly to automatically update in the top level assembly? I absolutely cannot be creating new "versions" for things every time I make a little change during the design phase, which is about every 30 seconds. I will soon have hundreds of versions which I'm not allowed to delete. Onshape automatically updates individual parts, so why not automatically update individual sub-assemblies?
