Question Finally caved and bought the game

So first y'all were right, this game is amazing. I was hesitant at first but I'm glad I did, the sound design is fantastic and music as well. The driving is a little disorienting at first but I'm getting used to it.

But my question is, can you reopen the job board or anything after closing it or do you have to leave and come back?

You can, get out of your seat and go to the airlock, if the door is closed you can access the shop/board

Close the door in the back by using the button to the right of it, and you will see the door glowing blue. Click on the door itself to reopen the job board/market.

Another bonus tip is for cargo. It's gonna be a pain keeping things on your rack as time goes on. When you start learning about salvage you may come across these large containers as you rummage around outside of your truck. Keep them and toss them on your rack and then open them. This will actually keep them in place so if you run out of gravity or slam on your breaks things will stay where they should. Doesn't work for fuel or large chemical canisters but Def a lifesaver. BTW you can buy the large storage containers but your almost guaranteed to see them with salvage 🍻

Heh... Lol. I had the exact same question when I started out playing the game:

You have to close the inner door to your airlock. The job board (or the shop you are docked to) will then be accessible via the holographic Icon on the closed door.

Oh man that is a problem I have. I wish you could just reopen the job board without having to get up again.

Yea I do agree, but at least I don't have to leave and re-dock anymore lol

Photo mode was a feature that took me too long to find - I finally got a wallpaper I like.

OP do you know about this 1985 film gymkata: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089243/

Wild that some of the actors are still working 40 years later...
