How to access a store/job board/whatever a second time?

[Papagenox]

It seems that once you dock, you have one shot to figure out what you want to buy/sell because once you complete the transaction, there's no way to return to that interface short of perhaps docking and undocking.
Am I missing something obvious?

This also happened in the tutorial on recommended difficulty when I at first dismissed the job screen because I wanted to repair the dead battery problem for the grav generator. Couldn't figure out how to return to the same interface.

You can access the screen again by interacting with the airlock in your ship

click on the airlock door, not the switch to open it

The airlock door must be closed, when closed there will be a screen to interact with (from inside the truck not inside the airlock)

Thanks. So click anywhere on the closed airlock door? Not exactly intuitive. Is that mentioned in the glove compartment manual anywhere? I tried looking there.

Thanks for the detail about the door needing to be closed. Per other replies, click on the door itself?

It's not mentionned anywhere but the chances of you never ever once turning to face your bright glowing blue airlock because of the shop's UI are very slim. Once bought, items are delivered in the airlock, so you open it to get the items, then close it again if you want to buy/sell some more.

Of course I saw the airlock, but I think I can be forgiven that it never occurred to me that clicking on its closed door would bring up an interface screen. I just used the open/close door switches. Anyway...

EDIT: Ah, I now see that I never actually closed the airlock door while docked after getting the stuff I bought. I bet this happens to a lot of people.

Can confirm, until I knew about this, unless I was inside it, about to leave the truck, I never once closed the airlock :D
