"unbound to throw"

[Trindalas]

lately ive been having a problem where its telling me the button to throw the duviri puzzle pieces is unbound, but it isnt, to the best of my knowledge. it should just me mouse 3 (click mouse wheel) to throw it like the alchemy bits and lunaro balls right? its what it used to be until more recently when it told me it was unbound when i pick it up.

*waits for solution* Thanks to anyone with one.

This slipped me up when I was new, under keybindings, check the "Drifter" tab. Drifter and Warframe keybindings are different, and having the control set for one doesn't apply to the other if it's become changed or unbound somehow.

These bindings also apply when controlling the Orowyrm.

Did you check your duviri keybinds? They have a different set of keybinds from warframe gameplay, so it might be bound for warframes but unbound for drifter, that could be a simple solution.

If that's not it, my other guess would be its a situation where there are multiple possible keybinds for the action, but that prompt only looks at one of them. I don't remember if that is the case here, but I've had that issue before in games. Especially if it still works to throw even when it says unbound, its probably the case where you are using "Keybind A to perform Action 1 or Action 2 contextually" when the prompt looks for "Keybind B to perform Action 1" or "Keybind C to perform Action 2".

i have all binds set except for some emote slots under the warframe section (yes every single drifter bind is set, that was the first thing i checked. In fact i dont think i ever did anything in that section except swap a couple things, but none of them were related to the middle button). unless its looking for a SECONDARY bind for something in which case those are unset, but i dont know why anything wouldnt just use the primary bind. It USED TO use the middle mous button, i have no idea when it stopped recognizing it as the throw button.

solved it by unbinding gun switch in drifter controls, which i had set to middle mouse button, making middle mouse button not bound to anything and just switch weapon bound to x. Apparently it really doesnt like having things bound to MMB as drifter, and throwing the item isnt an actual bindable control, merely the default.

Sadly a lot of the newer controls don't like custom setups as much; sometimes they end up needing you to reset to default -maybe keeping a backup of your settings file to refer back to later - and then re-input your preferred controls until it breaks again. That way you can learn which of the controls really don't want to be changed to other settings. It might take a bit, but might help narrow down how much you need to play with them.
