Hints

- Sometimes, placing a gate on a flat entity makes the gate spawn at a weird angle.
Rotating the entity, so its pitch or roll is not 0, will fix this.

- The search box can be helpful for finding a specific gate if you know what it's called.

- If your gate system is a mess, color coding your gates with the color tool can help.
Alternatively you can use the wire Name tool. Also try to right click with the Wire tool
when wiring to neatly arrange the wires on your circuit board.
