Why not just remove Manta?
Since it moving is clearly such a big deal breaker and absolutely nobody knows how to stop the ship at all.
Moving onto more serious things, Space ships would be a bit more difficult to simulate movement for reasons stated above. Things on earth slow to a stop because everything is constantly being pulled in by Earth's gravity. If something is moving in space, it will keep moving until something stops it, and anything moving with it will retain its movement relative to what it left unless something forces it to stop.
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion at a constant speed and direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. With nothing in space acting as an opposite force, it doesn't make logical sense for someone jumping from a spaceship to suddenly stop moving with it.
To be fair we could say "Fuck reality" because it would hardly be the least realistic thing about the game, of course.
