ilogic inconsistent relationship

I have a couple of rules which aid in the assembly of pressure vessel shells to nozzles and flanges. The objective is to make the assembly fully automated with parts available from CC.
At the moment I have the rule to place pipes and flanges from CC into the assembly and constrain them to the hole axis in the shell. This seems to work great where I run into an issue is when I try to add additional constrain > OutsideProjection(Value1, MateName2, ShellPlane, NozzleProjection) < to offset the nozzle origin plane from the shell plane. As seen in the picture.
When I create this constrain manually and type in the offset value it seems to work great, but when I write a rule with user input variables each relationship displays an inconsistent error, but it is not fully constrained yet.
Please see the images attached.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
