It looks like you jumped out of your cockpit and then got shot. I have mistakenly hit the key to leave my ship on numerous occasions.
How do you figure though when they were moving at about 118m/s at the time? You literally can not leave your cockpit when the craft is moving, unless you are in god mode. The game will not allow it. You also know they were not in god mode because they died, among other reasons. The devs had also already marked the discussion as "Filed/Tracking" in the top which they only do once they acknowledge there is a legitimate bug or issue to track.
Im just trying to think of what caused it. One possibility could be from aoe damage. Your cockpit is on the very front. And even though the shield blocks the impact, maybe some weapon aoe damage somehow penetrated through and hit you, and of course that shouldnt happen... Or should it? Maybe it was just the kenetic shockwave that got you, being so close to the impact point.
Weapons deal no blast damage versus shields. And even if they did, the shields should absorb all the damage. And even if they don't the cockpit should absorb all the damage. At no point should a player ever be shot out of an enclosed cockpit unless the cockpit is destroyed. It's a game bug.
