Is there a mod that disables reverting after leaving the atmosphere?

[sskacy]

I'm not Kerbal enough to completely disable reverting, but I would like to lose the option after I've reached 70km.  Is there a mod that does something like this?

KSP self control?  It works in all versions 

[sskacy]

I would rather be forced

@sskacy  in a word...  no... but there is a stock option

If you want a mod, do you want to stop reverting to launch or back to the VAB?  One option for you would be to play with KRASH which is a simulator to make sure rockets can get to orbit.  Then play your game with reverts off.

The stock option you have is to quicksave and quickload every time you get to orbit.  This stops the ability to revert.  Or exiting back to the tracking station or space centre. 

Peace.

  I can't believe I didn't think of this.  It seems so obvious now.  Thanks!

It would be great if a mod would do this.

Peace.

You can use AutoHotKey to achieve a similar result.  Here's the script:

Send {f5}
Send {f9 down}
Sleep 2000
Send {f9 up}
FileDelete C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Kerbal Space Program\saves\default\quicksave.sfs
FileDelete C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Kerbal Space Program\saves\default\quicksave.loadmeta

It quicksaves, quickloads, and then deletes the quicksave because I have no self-control.  Just enable quickloading and change the file paths to match the path of your KSP install.  I bound the execution of the script to a button on my mouse.

Nice to have extra buttons on your mouse I assume it isn't left or right click

But if it could be made automatic like as soon as you hit vacuum after a launch which would be an internal mod.

I think there may be a mod that does action groups when leaving atmosphere.   Maybe it could also do this?

Problem I can see for the OP is that rockets tend to randomly explode upon loading at the launchpad.

Yea.  So keeping the revert on then removing the possibility of revert once at a 70kms by quicksave and reload.

Peace.

I also think you can go eva, ] to switch to the ship and back to the Kerbal, and then going back in the pod would work.

I've had far more trouble thinking I could revert when I couldn't than I've ever had abusing the ability to revert.

My experience has been that you only lose the revert ability if you leave the physics bubble.

I've gone EVA and switched back and forth, and was able to still revert.

I've decided to try turning off the revert feature.  I like it so far.
