One line summary of your issue
Crossed Wires in Of Unknown Origin III

1.8.0-629R
What DLC do you have installed?

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Attempting to keep this low-spoilers:
At a certain point in the Of Unknown Origin flashpoint, you are given a choice between a fast, light-lance rescue mission and a slow, heavy-lance attack mission.

However, on selecting the *slow* option, I was informed that each slot was limited to 75t. I inspected the flashpoint contract data (available here: https://github.com/caardappel-hbs/b...data/contracts/flashpoint/HM1_ofUnknownOrigin ) and discovered that, if these files are accurate to the current game source, then the fast option is unlimited in drop restriction whilst the slow option has the restrictions that clearly should be applying to the light option.

Have you tried verifying your files?
No

Steps to reproduce the issue
Run the initial Of Unknown Origin flashpoint campaign. Upon completing the second mission pick the distraction mission rather than the rescue mission. You'll be told that your lance cannot exceed 240 tons and that no individual slot can exceed 75 tons, in distinct contrast with the fact you're told to bring your heaviest mechs and to expect to take a beating.

After returning to an earlier save and selecting the rescue mission, I was presented with no weight restrictions. As such the mission was laughably easy as I was able to complete it with a kitted out heavy/assault lance that massed two if not three times as much as the defending force.
