There's 5 transitions from Castrum to the Sunderers Gate...

(In all seriousness though, we could probably do without the Gate>inside>outside>Wall Portal>City Portal>Castrum chain of transitions. Gate>Inside>Portal>City Portal>Castrum would be enough. That 10m of bridge means an extra transition of annoyance. Though it does look funky.

Someone could always try to merge the security checkpoint cell with the Gate of the Sunderer area! Knock out two transitions in one move!
I have a feeling that might make slight volume issues though, what with every building being larger outside than in

Although, if it were to be on the same map, but off elsewhere and using the instant-transitions. . . still might not work, seeing as one is an 'Inside' cell, the other an Exterior cell.

huh. I never noticed that you skip the bridge on the way into the city. My bad, Kit.

having some of the areas on the same map, would be a nice solution.

Im not saying that everything should be a teleport fest, and I'd happily spend time travelling the valley. As long as there's something to look at meanwhile. I'd rather walk roads and bridges in general than having to look at loadscreen.
