FlyByWire SAS Mode

This Kerbal Space Program plugin adds four new SAS modes and a new more relaxing way to control your vessel, especially useful for managing your gravity turns on launch :

| Modes | | |---|---| | | Fly by wire
When enabled, pitch and yaw WASD inputs don't control the vessel directly anymore, but instead control the position of a custom navball direction marker that the SAS will follow automatically. You can switch to precision mode (Caps lock key) for finer control.| | | Fly by wire (plane mode)
Identical to the fly by wire mode, but the navball marker stays at a constant position relative to the horizon.| | | AntiParallel
Available when a target is selected, will keep the vessel control part in the opposite orientation as the target. Quite useful for docking !| | | Parallel
Available when a target is selected, will keep the vessel control part in the same orientation as the target.|

These new modes are available for pilots and probe cores at the same SAS level as the target and maneuver modes, but this is configurable in the settings.cfg file (doing that with a ModuleManager patch is recommended).
