Tee Junction not working properly

[Jessica.Dance4FF8F]

Hi,

Due to our company, and standards we have to use very specific measurements for our fittings. And so I have been making a collection, but for some reason our Tee isn't working correctly.

It will work perfectly when placed onto a pre existing pipe, but when I try and join a pipe directly off another pipe, when it would normally be placed automatically, its displaying an error and deleting the pipe. It is in the pipes Routing Preferences as it should be, so I cant see the issue.

I have attached it if anyone can spot an issue, I would be eternally grateful.😁

I tried to fix this by changing the origin point, tweaking some settings and changing column order in the lookup table.

In particular I changed the connector associations to the pipe nominal size rather than the outside diameter and changed the lookup formulas to use DN as the lookup value.

I got it working better, but not [edit] correctly, and for some reason in the project it inserted an elbow instead of a tee!

Can't explain that, maybe someone else could.

So I took a different approach, opened an Autodesk BSEN 10253 butt weld tee, changed the lookup table and then overwrote your family with this. It works fine in a project.
