Missing required components... when those components are part of a solution

I can't wrap my head around this. I'm trying to create a solution to move our structures from one environment to another, and so have crated a custom solution containing only those elements which have been modified by us. To that end - entities we've created from scratch are included in their entirety with metadata, while system entities are only extended with relevant attributes and references.

However, when I attempt to export this solution I'm getting a warning that there are "Missing Required Components". Looking through the list of these, supposedly, missing components I can see relationships (which ARE in the solution) and some views. The views I don't have a problem with - I can understand why those might be missing.

But the relationships have been added as part of the relationship for a given entity. So why do I get a warning? Sure enough, trying to import this solution later on throws the same error on import, that these components are missing.

What's going on here?

This entity is included in the same solution.

Is this parent entity in the environment you are importing into?

It's definitely not the mappings - I've checked, and those are in there and are identical with the "default solution".

Here's a quick screenshot for reference (I've had to change the width on some columns to make as much info fit - rest assured the hidden columns are either empty or contain "EntityReference"):

And here's what's in the solution:

The mappings section only contains the ID mapping (there are no other field mappings).

EDIT:

Since I cannot import the solution because the error is given before the import process even begins, there's no import log. As such the only thing I get is pretty much identical to the "Missing Required Components" screen... only in red.

Depending on what the log shows, it could be the mappings inside the relationships. If you are able to post a screen shot of the errors I can probably give more direction.
