What you are all observing is how Task: Nomad Shield Crafting was "fixed" in patch 1.06.
Only it was not, not in the real sense of debugging. Just forced to complete automatically to avoid the problem.
I can confirm that after the "fix" both my old as well as brand new characters got the quest completed automatically as soon as I logged in with each of them.
However, blueprints always stay in the R&D menu, regardless of character age or new game type and difficulty.
I'm intrigued by jaydee114's workaround, though. Might try it on a subsequent playthrough but it won't be now 'cause I'll ruin this game for myself if I play it for a fourth time so soon after launch.
We can only hope that the devs will revisit this issue at some point in the future and fix it for real next time.

Seems like you are a bit screwed if you are doing an NG+. I just finished an insanity run and got stuck at 99% again with that damn blueprint still in inventory. from the last game.

Amazingly it still is not fixed.

I close this thread due to necro-posting. The game itself is out of studio support since 2017, so there is no new patch coming.
