'''[[CIT Settings]]''' is the main server-specific settings menu in CIT. Players use it to change HUD options, graphics, audio, gameplay helpers, alerts, [[binds]], radar behavior, group-related display settings, and many other CIT-specific features.



To open it, use:



<code>/settings</code>



== Overview ==



The CIT settings menu is separate from the standard MTA client settings.



* Use <code>/settings</code> for '''CIT-specific''' settings

* Use <code>ESC > Settings</code> for standard '''MTA client''' settings



The CIT settings menu includes categories for things like:



* HUD

* Binds

* FPS

* Shader Graphics

* Sounds and [[Music]]

* Radar and Mini-Map

* Group, [[Alliance]], and Squad

* Spawning and Heist

* CITPhone

* Miscellaneous

* LV settings

* Custom Titles

* Seasons

* Drug display

* Combat helpers

* Respawn settings



== How to open and use CIT Settings ==



To open the menu, type:



<code>/settings</code>



You can use the search box to find a setting by:



* setting name

* category name



If you search for a category, the results can show the whole category and the settings inside it.



== CIT Settings vs MTA Settings ==



CIT has its own settings menu, but standard MTA settings are still available through:



<code>ESC > Settings</code>



Use '''ESC > Settings''' for standard MTA client options like:



* Multiplayer

* Binds

* Controls

* Interface

* Web Browser

* Advanced



Use '''/settings''' for server-specific CIT features and gameplay options.



== Binds and key settings ==



The '''Binds''' tab in <code>/settings</code> is used for CIT script binds.



It includes grouped sections such as:



* Weapon Binds

* Respawn Binds

* Function Keys

* [[Vehicle]] Binds

* General Binds

* Interaction Binds

* Job / Activity Binds



Each row shows:



* the bind name

* the current key in the '''Value''' column



You can double click a bind to set a new key.



The CIT binds menu also supports:



* secondary key binds



If you accidentally unbind an important CIT script key, reconnecting resets your binds to default. You can also fix binds manually in:



<code>ESC > Settings > Binds</code>



Standard movement and base MTA controls should still be changed in:



<code>ESC > Settings > Binds</code>



== HUD settings ==



The '''HUD''' tab controls the CIT custom HUD and interface display.
