    This has probably been mentioned many times before .. but

    When in an Hv.Sv (at least) if i tab out of the game to change background video or look at email for instance,
    when i return - while my character is still in the vehicle, however the game does not know this,
    you end up in a half and half state,
    the avatar view moves within the vehicle but not with the vehicle - ie no vehicle control.
    specifically when i was in an hv - i got into continuous uncontrolled rolling so couldn't <F> out of
    the vehicle.

    workaround is easy as you just have to quit and re-enter empyrion.
    it is just annoying.

    Even easier, just hit Alt, as Alt is the look around toggle :)

    I'm fairly sure you can remap it, I know it took me a couple of times getting caught out before I figured out what was happening.
