If you’re not on the gateway node then yes, you have to do the *4xxxx “by your command” bit. You could set that up as a macro.  For example if 1000 will be the private node and 2000 the public.

[macro]
1 = *31000*41000*32000# 

now *51 will connect to the public node. 

You could put the IP address of the gateway in each of your private nodes (and visa versa) which would save the whole *4 thing to connect to the gateway. But you’d still need to do *4 to connect the public node to other public nodes.

Can you share how you would configure the private modes to use the public as a gateway?

I am doing something similar but I command the public node to connect to another public using the *4 commands. .

Do you know of a direct way?
