How to Bind Keys in ETS2
Left-click on the button you want to overwrite next to the action you want to bind.
Press the key you want to assign to the specific function.
If the key can be assigned, it will immediately display in the corresponding place on the list, and there will be no need to save anything.
If needed, you can also unassign the key by clicking the "Unassign" button and then clicking the previously assigned key on the list.
