Code variations between these versions are shown below.

       Name: BAY
       Type: Subroutine
   Category: Status
    Summary: Go to the docking bay (i.e. show the Status Mode screen)



 We end up here after the start-up process (load commander etc.), as well as
 after a successful save, an escape pod launch, a successful docking, the end
 of a cargo sell, and various errors (such as not having enough cash, entering
 too many items when buying, trying to fit an item to your ship when you
 already have it, running out of cargo space, and so on).
