I'm curious why piping will work more fully in some templates than others.
For instance, the company template I made and we use for structures, will not allow me to make any turns in my pipes. I can only add straight pipes colinear with other pipes. In the Mechanical template, piping works fine. I can change directions and Revit adds the elbows for me. In our 'regular' template (possibly made from a structural template) I get the 'no' symbol (a circle with a diagonal line through it) whenever I try to add a pipe at any angle relative to the last pipe I placed. Is this just a setting or is it inherent in the template?

Okay, Duh, I got it. Sometimes you just have to think out loud, right?
I needed to Edit Type on my pipes and add elbows and such in Routing Preferences. Everything was set to None.
Piping is working fine now. Even in my structural template.
You beat me to it. I assume all your routing and appropriate fitting families are already set up in your Mechanical template file.
At first they were not. So, yes, I had to find and load the appropriate families first. Thanks.
