Use Custom Gates in Other projects as well

I cant use new gates (or , nand, etc) i made to other projects. Lets say I open a new project and o name it Project 1. Into Project 1 I create an or gate and  i save it as OR. When I go to Library it show up under 'custom'. Then I can only use the or gate only inside Project 1. Let's say I open a new project named Project 2, then the or gate isnt in the library of Porject 2. So I have to create from the start all the gates I will need? That seems to be strange. Any help is wellcome.

That's the point of having multiple projects. You can keep your libraries from getting too cluttered and organized for the task at hand.

Though, I believe you can go into the game files and make copies and move them from one project to another

Do you know where these files are in the directory?

I don't know the exact directory, ill reply with it shortly, but for now I know it's located somewhere in %appdata%

because in every project it have a private logic gates so you should stay in one project

same thing. the custom gate buttons are light gray and I cant use them.

bruh nvm u have to make another one to use the previous one :/

I don't understand what the objective of the program is. It save projects as new subcircuits but not as a circuit diagram that uses them. I have to create my circuit drawing every time I use a subcircuit. It's strange.

When you CTRL + S or click save in the menu, you're saving your "sub circuit" as a new chip.  When you click new, you're creating a new circuit, not a new project, and this is where you use your previously saved chips.  If you want to review the chip you made, place it in the work space, then right click on it and click view.  If you want to edit it (maybe you've made an error and need to fix it), you open the menu, then go to library, and click on your chip there and then edit at the bottom.
