What version are you playing? The way bouys work was altered when 6 changed engine mechanics. I can't specifically remember how they operated in v5, but I think longevity was based on reactor strength.
Was the buoy a second stage and was it delivered before the first stage self-destructed?
Missile Size: 4.73 MSP (0.2365 HS) Warhead: 0 Armour: 0 Manoeuvre Rating: 10
Speed: 1600 km/s Engine Endurance: 364.5 hours Range: 2 099.6m km

Second Stage: Size 2.4 Buoy x1
Second Stage Separation Range: 150 000 km
Overall Endurance: 15 days Overall Range: 2099.6m km
Chance to Hit: 1k km/s 16% 3k km/s 0% 5k km/s 3.2% 10k km/s 1.6%
Materials Required: 0.36x Boronide 0.6x Uridium 0.0924x Gallicite Fuel x5000
Development Cost for Project: 105RP
I am a little confused, because I launched a missile intended to deliver a buoy at a jump point but I get a message:
6x Size 4.73 buoy delivery has no target and no onboard sensors and will therefore self-destruct.
Do I need to put sensors on these delivery systems for them to work?
