Servo, fluiduct, steam

[recoil101]

Howdi helpful folks!
Right, I have a railcraft steam boiler and 3 MFR steam turbines. I linked them up using EnderIO fluid conduits, but after a bit of reading up, I realised that due to throughput restrictions I would be better off trying the new Thermal Dynamics fluiducts. Soooo, I tested a setup on my creative world and it all worked great. Tested different servos, fluiducts etc and decided on a resonant servo (r clicked and disabled the redstone) with opaque temperate fluiducts. Everything worked wonderfully. However, when I did exactly the same on my survival world.... nothing. The steam refused to budge at all. No throughput.

Any ideas why it works on creative but not in survival??? Seems a simple setup, cant for the life of me work out where I've megaderped.

Using Direwolf20 1.7.10 1.5.0 by the way.

Thanks!!

Is it EXACTLY the same as you did it in your test world?

Duct on the same part of the steam boiler? Ducts going into the same part of the turbines (top/bottom/sides)

Just been testing exactly that (great minds etc), that was all fine..... what was different however was the positioning of the aqueous accumulator. The fluiduct steam outlet was trying to connect to the ender io fluid conduit taking water into the boiler. I wrenched it to disable the connection BUT I suspect that it had already put water into the fluiduct pipe.... hence no steam was able to travel along the piping. I switched my water outlet to the other side, redid the fluiduct with fresh piping and hey presto!!! Now it's my boiler that's letting off steam and not me!!!

Thanks!
