Fishing minigame keys could not be rebound

Fix status

0.12.1 fixes fishing-minigame controls ignoring keybinding changes.

What to do now

Update, assign the preferred keys in settings and test them at a low-risk fishing spot.

Close Dragonwilds and update the Steam client.
If the world is dedicated, stop, back up and update the server too.
Confirm the complete client and server version numbers match.
Reload the affected area or interface and retest the exact trigger once.

If the symptom still appears

Do not assume the same cause survived the patch. Record the current version, world type, host/client role, location and exact action that reproduces “fishing minigame keys could not be rebound”. A new report with those details is more useful than applying an old workaround or deleting a save.
