No button prompt for chemical trap on controller?

I admittedly haven't used Chemical Trap before. For some reason, I'm not getting a button prompt to place it on a pallet. I have my input bindings changed so my primary action is bound to R1 and the secondary action (vault, drop pallet, etc) is bound to X/square, because there's no reason for those buttons to ever overlap. But now it seems like I can't use the Chemical Trap perk because my vault button is bound to the secondary action button. Is this a bug/oversight, or am I completely missing something with the perk?

    This is just a random guess, but your binding of the secondary action could be the source of this headache. Iirc, chemical trap's default activate ability button is X/square on a downed pallet. Assuming secondary actions and active ability buttons are different.

    Yeah Chemical is a secondary action, because consider you have Any Means Necessary as well which also is a pallet interaction, they can't both be on the game button. It's something you need to have separate from other actions otherwise you'll have cases when you can't use them, or unintentionally will.
