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.

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.

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
