I'm having trouble with the turret in my Atlas MkII. I can enter its turret by bringing up the menu, going to 'Tactical', and selecting the turret but I can't exit the turret without relogging. I don't see any return to pilot seat type option, when I select the turret again there's a 'Dismiss' button but it's grayed out, and double-clicking the turret selection give me a "You can't do this to yourself" message. How do I leave my own turret to go back to flying?

Did you hit activate or whatever amounts to activate on android if that is the device you are using?

I'm having this issue on PC, I have an android device but haven't yet tried using a turret on it yet.

If you're on pc, then pressing the enter key 'activate' will exit you from the turrret.

Oh. That worked. I saw nothing anywhere that said that though, is it even listed anywhere in game? Because it really should be.

EDIT: Also, when I leave turret it clears my target. This is really annoying when mining. Is that supposed to happen?

Yeah, I reported that bug a while ago. I'll add a link to this thread to the bug report.

Yeah, that's supposed to happen, but we'll look into changing it at some point.
Also, when you first enter the turret, you should see a quick message on the HUD that says something like "Press the Activate key to leave the turret".

Ray, I've never noticed that message. It might be an idea to make it persist longer.

That message does pop up. Increasing the time it displays would be a good idea though.

Ok, I tested this and the "Press the Activate key to leave the turret" message stays on the HUD until the HUD is hidden for whatever reason, like Escape (or Back) being pressed, or going to the PDA.
Then it goes away until you enter another turret. I'll have to make it not go away when the HUD is hidden and made visible again.

Was that when you docked with someone else's ship, or when you got in one of your own turrets? I seem to remember it working in one case and not the other.

Edit: Ray's right. It shows up at the bottom of the screen in yellow either way. Maybe some plugin is hiding things?
