Is it possible to add a few coppers to the initial conditions of this tribe - so that it would be possible to build a port? Otherwise, it is impossible to play on some maps - while there are no such problems when playing for other tribes.

You probably overlooked the copper ore. I think the balance is fine. Sumatran HQ has 4 x gold (as all other tribes have), 4 x copper ore and 12 x coal. Which mean that you can start building a port right away at the beginning of a game you just have to build a furnace too. To build a furnace you need 4:30, to build a port you need 10:30. So before the builder will need copper, he should have it and you will also have everything to start a new expedition immediately. You will just not have any gold and copper left but as for other tribes, the situation is exactly the same.

OK

Is it possible to make it so that raw diamonds can be mined not only in stone mines, but also in other types of mines (albeit in smaller volumes)? On some maps, the game reaches a dead end, because it is simply impossible to quickly get to the stone deposits (for example https://www.widelands.org/maps/colonies-in-the-ice/ ).

Did you read the comment to the map? It looks like Sumatrans are not the only tribe, that have hard times on this map. For smaller volumes of diamonds, you should use empty stone mines. That's how the game works. Your next request will be what? Stonecutters should cut small amount of fishes out of rocks? Thank you for playing the tribe anyway.
