solved What is the 'General' category in Controls for?

I assumed it would be a place to set a common bind for all modules, but it doesn't seem to be.

For example, I set the F1 cockpit view to a button under 'General' - after removing all my individual binds for it - and it doesn't work.

So, I'm wondering what this category's function is.

For when you are in a server but not slotted into an aircraft I presume?

Interesting. I’ve never used multiplayer.

There's this stated in the DCS User Manual (top of page 31) under the 'Aircraft Control Mode' heading:

General. Active when a mission is launched with no player or client-controlled aircraft.
