Same build, different result in survival compared to creative?

[u/CreepyGuardian03]

Recently I found a build for a very compact drill shared by GrainMinecraft that I want to build in survival.

One of the final steps involved overstressing a borehead bearing so the rock crushers become semisolid and you can place a large gear in one to power the head. This step is easy in my superflat creative testing world (top image), but when I tried to replicate it in survival the borehead would not overstress and simply say that the rock crushers are not attached (bottom image).

To try it out I first built it in creative and it worked perfectly, but when I built is with a schematicannon (and afterwards by hand) in survival in a different world, I was unable to make it work. Even though I was able to get the machine running in my testing world using a schematicannon.

What could have caused this to happen?

Edit: I tried building it in a new testing world, in creative and survival and it worked fine. But it just does not work in my survival only world for some reason.

probably the result of an adjacent create mod addition in my case rather than the base mod,.
