Hmm, I was thinking more for the controller assignments, so if a game has multitap attached or not but config of the button layout is important as well. I would say the expected behaviour would be the default bindings of the Kodi controller to the game systems controller should be used unless an override exists.

In this case, when you configure controller assignments or buttons in the game, it overrides it for the game. When you configure controller assignments or buttons outside a game, it configures it globally. The code for this is easy to do, but do you think this behaviour could be confusing?

Potentially yes, but I can't think of how better to structure it. Maybe have some kind of warning when editing in game that it will only affect the mapping for the current game and you need to leave the game to configure globally or have a button to switch to configuring it globally? Perhaps even an "Apply Global config" button that wipes out a customised layout?

I would expect the expectation of editing outside of a game would be that it affects all games unless they have an override in place, so I wouldn't think the reverse warning would be required.
