Ore & Portals

As suggested by title, this game needs some major improvements in transportation of goods if we are never going to be allowed to have ore go through portals. I get the decision why not to do so, but also with the massive scale of the world, it seems a bit odd as well. Ore runs out and you need to find new sources in the end.

Yeah it's true. Ever cruise the longboat at full sail with favorable winds? Ever look over at the cost line and see just how incredibly fast you are travelling? I feel like oceans connect everything in this game because that it the "fast travel" alternative to portals.

It's all frame of mind.

Mod the limitation away.
It makes absolutely no sense anyhow.

What's special about ore?

You can transport the resources needed to construct the forge & furnace through the portal, but you can't transport the ore?!?

Moreover you can completely bypass the limitation by loading/unloading the ore via a temporary world.

It's a poorly thought out limitation that has no basis in the lore, and exists only to artificially extend the (already substantial) grind.
