First steam power setup, can't connect pump to boiler or steam engines with each other. Tooltip error: Cannot connect systems with different fluids.

You connected the steam engine to the water instead of the steam output.

When you hover over the boiler it should show a gray cloud icon for steam on one of the connections, and a blue drop for water on the other two. Hovering the steam engine shows both of its connections only accept steam, not water.
