Sounds like you have a seam or screw hole somewhere in the side of the camper that is leaking into the sidewall and draining out the bottom. Siliconing the screws on the bottom of the slide out is only going to seal up the natural drain and trap the water inside between the subflooring and the floor.

What system is on that slide? Is it the through frame with rams under the room or a Schwintek?
If it is a Schwintek then you should seal the tops of the columns. The columns are what screw to the side wall.
Also seal along the top wipe seal. My voltage was not sealed along the top wipe seal and those are stapled on.
Maybe you could take some pictures of what you are seeing and the wipe seals attached to the opening. That would be helpful.
Also, it sounds like you are leaking when the room is in. Is this the case or is the room out when it leaks?
