Disable navball auto switching

[ajburges]

Is there a way to disable the auto swap of navball modes? The "feature" is driving me crazy!

I just lost a hundred plus dV when my launch to intercept space plane got within target range with follow prograde on for the late gravity turn (and proceeded to tumble like a leaf on the wind at 50 km).

Setting, mod, cfg edit? Any way at all to disable this horrid feature?

It would be nice if the patch notes were truthful about SAS defaulting to stability mode if prograde changes, but it doesn't.

I'd support this. Choosing the other SAS modes upon pain of mode change hasn't caused me a ton of problems (I mostly use simple stability or at least keep mindful of my upcoming interactions) but it seems like an obvious thing to make optional.

The Navball is set to auto-re-calibrate upon switching SOIs. This is handled by the function of planetary reference points, which would all have to be the same to stop auto-switching.

Xannari: he's talking about the automatic switching between surface, orbit and target modes, not switching SoIs.

[KerikBalm]

I fully support the option to stop this.

I would also implement, at the same time, the ability to automatically stop camera modes from switching as well

My typical approach to target craft involves setting it as target again at least three times.

I would heartily support such a feature.
