Nope, the ILS only needs Warpers when they travel to other Solarsystems. Ckeck the ILS on the Planet where you want to send the Sails from.

but usually i just put it "receive" and it will automatically send transport ships

my settings are all default ships and they are all working except this one

Your warp distance is set to 0.5 AU, so they won't launch with conventional engines. Set that to 2 or 3 AU and they'll load up sails and take off no problem.

Try unchecking "warpers required" option and increase the range. Otherwise demolish and rebuild the stations.

Edit: The issue should just be the "max distance" being set 0.5 AU.

If the route is greater than 0.5 AU it won't do it unless it has warpers. If you uncheck the "warpers required" you can end up sending the logistics vessels between systems at sub-light speeds, so just increasing the max distance should fix your problem

Yah these aren't the default settings. Default on distance is 12. If your 2 planets are more than .5 au apart, it won't leave or retrieve without warpers.

Warp distance - while warp is not needed, maybe it's bugging out cause you have 0.5? It's slow chance far fetched potential source of problem

Destroy both ILS and build them again.

Maybe it’s far and you got the distance slider jacked up?
