Acquisition Contract says insufficient quantity when delivering requested amount.

Twice I have encountered the insufficient quantity message when attempting to finish a contract.

The first time is was for nickel ore, I don't remember the quantity as it was about two weeks ago.

Second happened just now, was for 2205 Kg Cobalt Ingots.

Each time I was able to complete the contract if I added 1 Kg extra of the requested item to my inventory.

Each time I was left with 1.00 Kg of the item in inventory once the contract was finished.

I have a suspicion that it is a math rounding decimal error somewhere since both ores and ingots can have decimal quantities.

I had the same issue today. My iron contract took 0.01kg less than the requested amount, and the zinc contract said I didn't have enough. I had moved the zinc with right-click stack split, so it was exactly 2065 (the requested amount). Someone on the Discord said to buy 1kg from the shop there to see if it needed just a bit more, so I did. As you can see in the attached picture, it took 0.0001kg from that extra 1kg that I bought. These values really need to be set to exactly whole kg amounts as it's impossible to know ahead of time if it's slightly off since the game just rounds everything.
