Landing gear auto-align

This is ticking me off. I'll have my landing gear be one degree off (according to B9's alignment tool) but be unable to adjust the one degree out. This inevitable leads to my aircraft and spaceplanes flipping over on the runway. I would like to see landing gear that auto-align themselves with the longitudinal axis (i.e. nose to tale axis) when I place them. I've spent over five hours trying to get my landing gear aligned for an otherwise exceptional SSTO. I shouldn't have to launch it on top of a rocket to test fly it.

There is a simple solution to this, you will love it.

Place the landing gear however you wish, then select the rotation gizmo and click on it.

Then, press F to put the gizmo on "Absolute" mode, and turn on angle snap.

Try to rotate the gear and it will snap to angles relative to the SPH.

Simply snap it to be perfectly straight relative to the SPH and it will be always right.

You can also do that to fix any other angle or part you place on your craft, it's very easy to use :D

If I was too unclear please ask and I will try to explain in some other way.
