when ever I try to bind my keys I get the same message claiming that the action already has a bind and to unbind it even though nothing is there. I tried to unbind the key then bind it but still does not work.
man I said the word bind quite a few times 
Seems to work fine on mine. Are you changing global binds or local ones? (Local means local to that particular screen, and is generally the way to go).
both don’t seem to work for me
[edit] scratch that im a dumbass I was not doing holding shift when I pressed+ making it do global bind want me to delete this post?
Hmm.
You did unzip DDA and make sure it can write to its own files? Sometimes those cause problems.
