Can anyone figure out how to turn off the fuking pulse drive? It goes on fine but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to turn the damn thing off.

never mind - figured it out - hit "S" key. Thanks for nothing Hello Games for your worthless approach to this game. Guess Hello thinks you have to start out as a brain damaged amnesiac.

Two ways:

1. Look in your inventory, the pulse drive is an object/attachment to your ship you can remove it by unslotting it.

2. Open in game options and look through your key bindings. Engines always have their own function triggers.
