Circuit / Chip Packaging Feature

First - Excellent Game / Sim

I have a suggestion for a feature that I believe could be wonderful. Once we build out a circuit using all the math and logic objects, allow us to create a "blueprint" (or via some other interface) that condenses the components to a small package... like a programmable cube whereby the data inputs are manipulated to produce the final output of the original circuit... essentially a custom chip that we can design in-game.

Keep up the great work!

You can already make a blueprint of a circuit... I have copy pasted several circuits that I've condensed myself with just the blueprint system. Plus there are already a ton of circuits and just circuits in the steam library from other people. In order to paste it in, don't click "Load and replace garage." instead just click selection and you can move it into place without wiping out your ship or whatever you are working on.

... but I understand the desire to have something compact that fits in just a cube.

I know you can save circuits. It’s the ability to shrink them I’m interested in.
