While playing this I had multiple soft locks. While most contracts are self sufficient at the location, this one is not completely. It had me start entirely from scratch without any manufacturing equipment, which I could build, but there was no power, with the only batteries requiring resources only capable of being manufactured by the equipment I was trying to power. I was forced to make my own grid of manufacturing blocks, but another issue arose, there was no lead whatsoever on this asteroid. So I had to explore the ring for lead. I obtained lead, and I completed every single part of the building except for one block. The gravity generator. Which was also required to be completed from scratch. At this stage in the game I probably am on my fourth contract and not only was I not supplied with equipment to make the gravity core, but I am not nearly progressed enough to even build this equipment myself. At this point I am forced to either wait for a passing ship and hope it has a gravity generator, while avoiding the gunfire that I can't fight back with, or to cheat.
Cant complete `Engineering - Industrial Foothold` contract
Solved
To complete this contract you need to weld up a large ore detector that requires Permanent magnets which you cant get cause you haven't unlocked a refinery yet or have high enough progression for them to spawn in loot or trade stations.
I have the same bug
If I'm not mistaken it also requires gravity components that you cannot get either at that time.

Hello stonelords,
I have reported this issue and attached this thread to our internal ticket (SE2-31677).
As for a workaround to complete this Contract currently it requires a lot of luck. Gravity Cores can be obtained while completing previous Contracts, scavenged from existing Grids while for Permanent Magnet, there is an unknown signal which contains damaged Refinery where the Permanent Magnet can be crafted after fixing the Refinery.

Got the same issue here, I'll go hunt unknown signals for a bit and hope to get lucky.

Hi Bartosz
Is that unknown signal in space or planet-side?
Would help narrow the search.
Thanks

Hello Engineers,
Recipe for Gravity Generator has been adjusted to use Motherboard instead of Permanent Magnet. Please note that for Gravity Cores, you can salvage them from the previous Contract: Acquisition - Supply and Demand.
As such, the Contract should no longer cause softlocks. I am closing the thread.
Happy Engineering!
