[0.12.33] Mission steps break on "New Hope" level 1

[BreakingEverything]

Issue: Science Pack 2 is not unlocked in "New Hope" level 1 because mission/tutorial steps can get out of sync.

How to replicate:
1) Start the mission, immediately start building a lab.
2) Place the lab before the mission step "Build a lab" appears.
3) The research tree will now pop up - click "Automation".
4) At some point after this the mission step "Build a lab" will appear. Note that building a lab does not complete this mission step now.
4) Finish researching Automation.

Result: When "Automation" finishes researching, Science Pack 2 does not appear.

Suspected cause:
Because the lab is already built before the first mission step appears, the game gets stuck waiting for the player to complete it. Because Science Pack 2 is unlocked through the mission step of researching Automation, the game never actually completes this step and therefore never unlocks Science Pack 2.

Extra notes:
I've noticed that after researching a bunch of other technologies it will sometimes flip to the "Research Automation" mission step. However, because this has already been researched it just sits on that step forever. It also sometimes jumps to Automobilism, but Science Pack 2 remains locked.

Thanks for the report,

I guess its easy enough to break the scripting if you know what you're doing
