    Update for SV Open Cockpit 2.
    It want eject me to to central block on the left side of it. If this area blocked it eject you inside the cockpit.
    Before 1.10.5 update in case left side of cockpit was blocked it ejected you to the back of cockpit or outside of the build in case glass or thin blocks were on top or top left side of open cockpit 2.

    On JRandal's playthrough there are lots of situations where he stucks in pilot seat:

    First timing is 1:03:25

    I want to add that this appears to cause a secondary problem.

    On a CV, if a Captain Chair has a full block directly above it and someone enters and then leaves the chair, I think a collision happens between the player and the block above, causing a situation where the CV slowly falls down to the ground by itself, even though nobody is piloting it.

    I think I recall this happening on an SV as well.

    It took me a while to figure out what exactly was causing my ship to slowly fall down to the ground by itself, but I believe this ejection of the player directly on top of the Captain Chair and the resulting collision with the full block above is responsible.

    This is in multiplayer on a dedicated server, by the way.

    [edit] Forgot to add that this is for an CV or SV in planetary gravity.

    This is just normal behavior for all ships. Doesn't matter what cockpit you use or how you position it.
    As for why it is this way I could not say. I had reported it as a bug but many players think this is how it should be for... Reasons.
