(apparently this was mentioned a couple months ago and you fixed it by pressing the appropriate movement key again. that doesn't mean don't fix the bug)
I get out of a pod while moving in one direction and it keeps me moving in that direction for some reason. I did it on two separate rounds, reset-keymap, double-tabbing wasd etc didn't fix anything and it was a real pain until I found the hotfix solution searching this forum

you basically have to hammer the arrow key to turn around fast enough, and for several seconds it doesn't quite register it so you'll keep moving/firing one way
the saw/gun drones that populate the debris field take a shitload of shots with the default phaser, which lacks range & not much speed; strafing backwards was approximately the only way TO kill them reliably, and is now gone, making fighting them an absolute fucking nightmare
tobba pls ficks

Yep. I've died to it. IIRC pressing the direction key you're moving in fixes it, which is kinda moot when you're flying off into space with no suit.
The other side effect of new movement, the lack of pod-drift, is actually worse to me than the occasional space trip. It makes pod combat a total pain.

This is why you always keep your cash around. That starting paycheck is a couple hundred Δv adjustments!
