[3.3.0] Two HQ3 issues

Auto-build of HQ is enabled.

Issue the first:
The Robotics Lab that it auto-built says it built the "Research Wing", but that would be in the section where Ada is standing in the attached screenshot but as you can see there's nothing there, and should've unlocked some more sub-options, which also haven't appeared.

Issue the second:
Trying to "Change Layout" on the Clinic to change it to the "Clinical ER" says it is adding it to the Facilities Task List, but they just don't seem to be building it.

You can view the Facilities Task List, by using FACILITIES > MANAGE. There will be a second icon that looks like MANAGE, but displays View Task List. Selecting that will show you the Projects in the queue. Select them to see what resources are holding up the build.
If HQ doesn't have resources or department energy to construct the room, the queue can stall.
You can then try to remedy the resources/energy shortage or cancel the Project that you don't have resources for and move on with other projects. Then when you know you have the resources, you can manually add that task to the queue again.
 
That was the only task in there when I checked just now, and it says I don't have enough Energy in the three relevant departments - but the normal HUD says I do? I'll try clearing the queue and putting it back in.
EDIT: Nope, that wasn't it. It let me do the "double Caravan connection range" research even though that put Logistics Energy into the red, too.

Extra note: "Armor Lab" functionality appears to refuse to work right now - all the other ones work fine, all Armor does is teleport someone to the workstation but not bring up the crafting menu.

(also I somehow have a negative amount of Military Supplies in the V.Storage again? I thought it wasn't possible to have negative numbers in there)

Another several ingame days have passed, and it hasn't done it. In fact, nothing automated at HQ has built - I just popped back there to check, and there's several rooms that got Cleaned but not Constructed, and multiple Engineering Upgrades that haven't been done either.
Is it because I'm stalled at the friggin "get 1000+ Power to HQ using Power Transfer" quest stage?

Hey Yaugie, I think you already hit on an important point. I've seen it myself.
The queue didn't pick up your task assignments. It picks up the first and then nothing subsequent.
Even waiting for scripts to catch up doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure there's a simple fix that still lets you just line everything up and go about asserting dominance.
I queue one or two things at a time and hoof it back when I see the completion notification.
If you really want to queue up many things, do them one at a time and check the list between each and every added task. This works for me, but it is so labour intensive that I don't bother.

I have experienced a similar thing where sometimes when you put something in the task list it can get stuck - I don't know why but it appears to be an issue.

Also can confirm the armor lab workbench appears to be having issues. I can't use it to craft either.
