Which sell point? Every grain contract I did was for delivery to Goldcrest, and needed to be sent out on the train...

Do you have another contract running for harvesting canola? Did you harvest in the rain?

Luckily enough, you can give away your own canola, and the contract delivery point will be glad to take it for free.

I did have 2 more contracts that I took but hadn't started yet. I honestly didn't even pay attention to the status on those 2. I just rage canceled them all. This might not be the maps fault and it's just human error. I'm going to try another harvest contract and see if it works.

The issue I have noticed which may have caused your problem is that if the contracts are for the same product to the same sell point, the game doesn’t know which field the crops are from. I did three contracts on this map with the same crop and sell point and I noticed that the updates when I dropped off the crop from one field were registering for a different one. Not an issue if you are going to do all of them, more of a problem if you want to complete one so you can then take another.

I did think maybe it registers the crop in the order that you accept the contracts, but I couldn’t remember for sure which I took first.

I've done 78 contracts so far on Frankenmuth and the only issues I've run into is caused by myself lol

On my very first contract there, I though it was glitched then realized I had to load the wheat on to the train and drive it to the edge of the map. Every since then it's been smooth sailing, except when I delivered to the wrong sell point last night.

I feel like I made a noob mistake here. I should have had the sense to check the other contracts before going into stupid mode. I have done a few more harvesting contracts and they have all worked fine.

Sounds like they took the issue from 19, and double down on it, making it worse.

I ran into one issue-Corn Harvest, Field 6, deliver to Goldcrest. I put the entire harvest on the train, (84K l or so...), and got a green text that the contract was 106% transported, but the contract menu item said 20% completed. Field was swept clean, no headland misses, no ghost crops. One potential issue was the (wow, the censorship is tight here. The of-less-than-average-intelligence) AI had cut 3-4 rows of Field 7 when finishing Field 6- would that have "broken" the contract? Only upside was when I cx'd the contract, there was no penalty. I've done two subsequent contracts including a train delivery without any other trouble.
