Bug #24521
IVA Mode Not Respecting Control Point with SAS
10%
Description
When enabling SAS to hold anything other that stable, entering IVA mode causes that command pod's orientation to be used for SAS, causing the vessel to flip around if that pod is oriented any other way than the control point.

Note: This video uses mods but I have confirmed this bug on a separate PC with a clean installation of KSP.
Workaround: Don't use IVA mode.

Ohhhhhh, that took me way too long to figure out the two landercans were facing away from each other.
The issue is the following as I understand it.
Steps:
1. Load the quick save
2. Set SAS to prograde
3. Click on View for Kilmore at the bottom right of the screen whose in the landercan that is facing in the retrograde direction and the ship will turn around.
4. Pressing C that gets out of IVA will have the craft flip back to the correct control point
4a. Pressing M when in IVA will do the same thing
Confirmed.

There is an option, to keep the control point fixed when we switch to IVA view, IVA_RETAIN_CONTROL_POINT = True
(but I think the default is to have the control switch follow the IVA view, maybe so that the interior-view navballs are oriented as you would expect if controlling from that seat.)
