Re: Controls
What view mode are you using?
I'm not sure what you mean by "bounce" any more...
Using a single click on the enemy ship, you may find that by the time you're finished your turn, the enemy has begun heading off in a different direction than you expected...
If you have the grid on (G key), do you still notice the "bounce"?

Re: Controls
I think the mouse "bounce" is being caused by clicking too near the top of the screen. This causes the ship to do a 180 degree turn around.

Re: Controls
Is this keyboard bounce thing considered a bug? Will it get fixed in the patch?
I only have the demo but it's a pain when you are in combat.

View mode is F7 or default;
I don't use the grid, guess I'll try that.
Mouse "bounce" seems to be when I put the cursor way off to one side and/or near top of screen then left click.

Avoid those areas, as they tend to cause 180 degree turns. Try keeping to mouse near your ship when piloting with it.

Re: Controls
I can confirm the mouse 'bounce' as well, same conditions. More annoying than game damaging though.
