Right mouse button activates electrics, no bindings

Yes except for aircraft

Brief description of the issue:

A bit of a strange one, and one I’ve had very intermittently over the past year.
In this scenario the aircraft runs out of battery, and all the radios go dead.
With the engine running, holding the right mouse button to look around seems to turn on the aircraft electrics, which then allows all radios and switches to start working (until I release the RH mouse button which makes them all go dead again).
If the avionics switches are on then the radios light up as mentioned. If the avionics switch is turned off, then only the aircraft electrics are affected.
There are no bindings reflecting anything other than view options with the right mouse button.
No animations occur when this happens, but there is a switch like sound (sounds like the Robin mag switch sound, different to the master switch sound).
This doesn’t happen when I’m in an external view.

Reloading the aircraft via the dev menu fixes the problem and all systems work normally. Restarting the flight from the main menu does the same thing.

Be interesting if anyone else has ever encountered this issue.

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

On further testing it seems the starter motor binding was on on my throttles, draining the battery.

I think the right mouse button is blocking the start input command thus giving the electrics some spare juice to use. Releasing the mouse button activated the starter again.

I’ll leave this up here for reference. This is most likely another instance of the right mouse button blocking controls/inputs.
