USI Planetary Logistics can't make it work!

[alphaprior]

I've been trying for days to work with Planetary Logistics. And there are no much information or tutorials online. 
I'm on Minmus I have my main base where I can mine everything I need except Silicates which I mine and process to Silicon on another base.

So on my main base I have a Pionner Logistics module with pilots and a storage for Silicon defined as Planetary logistics, there is also an Assembly for Specialized Parts that needs Silicon and doesn't work because it's missing.

On my 2nd base where I process Silicon I have also Pioneer logistics module , pilots and a storage with Silicon.  Planetary logistics on or off nothing changes.
On Planetary logistics tab I see nothing about Silicon, there is a reference for silicates 0 for uknown reason.
Also a reference for Refunding for KSP 15023 or something like that a number that gets bigger over time.
 

Some help please. I spent lots of time and spent millions to set those bases. I'm really frustrated and I will have to abandon game entirelly.

Hmm.

First off, I assume you know about WOLF and suspect you chose not to go that road

What versions of MKS and ksp are you using?

Can you maybe share some screenshots? 

How full is your silicon storage on your 2d base? Iirc it will only push resources when the container is over half full.

Ok, there's a couple of things that might be wrong here:

There's two resources here - silicates are the mined stuff, silicon is the stuff that's processed.

If you want silicon to be transferred to planetary resources, the base that makes silicon needs a storage kontainer for silicon that is marked as a planetary warehouse.  You also need a logistics module (duna logistics, etc.) on the base that is "pushing" to planetary resources, though you don't need it to be manned.

Silicon will only be transferred to planetary resources once your storage kontainer is mostly full.  So it might just be you need a little patience and for the stored silicon to build up in the base that's creating it.

Once some silicon has been pushed to planetary resources, it will then be available for your other base to pull it - if you have a manned logistics module and a storage kontainer for silicon set to planetary warehouse as well.  It also needs a "use" for that resource - so if you're not producing specialised parts on that base it might not be attempting to pull.

Thanks guys.

It is what I afraid it was but at least it's simple I only have to wait.
I need silicon container over half full. I wish I could just send all or most of it to the main base. 
And of course as said before silicon is needed by SP parts factory.

I don't know why silicates appear on planetary logistics I haven't set any silicate container for planetary logistics. Probably a bug.

Game version is 1.12.3 
USI 1.4

I have Tundra module Pioneer logistics on both bases.
So I'm going to Minmus and wait for silicon to fill up.
