It is somewhat confusing to follow to be fair Beukez.
The original question was about SRAM Eagle which is 1 1x12 group. The cassette is 10-50t and usually paired with a 30 to 38t chainring.
If your old bike was running a triple front then it was possibly 44-32-22 or maybe 42 outer at the front and probably 11-32t rear. But we never got to find that out. If you could only use the outer chainring without the front derailleur rubbing on the tyre, it's quite likely it was badly adjusted or possibly broken and that all it needed was taking to a mechanic who knew how to fix it - a 15 minute job. A new outer chainring is not expensive either. Wheel size also matters for working out gearing. If your old bike has 26" wheels, a 32t chainring is easier than if you had 27.5" or 29".
But then you've bought an Orange which doesn't have SRAM or an Eagle groupset. It's 1x11 Shimano. Eagle is 1x12. A 30t chainring matched with 11-46t will give you gearing that is probably the equivalent of the middle and granny ring on your old bike, presuming your old bike had 26" wheels and the new bike is 27.5".
That setup will be fine for offroad use as usually a big outer chainring is redundant offroad unless you're particularly fast. You might even be doing yourself harm trying to push a 44 with 11-32 rear. If you're using the new bike on the road a lot however, an offroad gearset these days is even more annoying than the triples of a few years ago as you'll have big jumps between each gear at the back, less range and no top end speed. You'll spin out. Older triples had more range and less gaps between gears - the downside being weight and complexity.
A larger front chainring on a 1x11 will get you back your top speed on the road but you'd need a 42 or 44 outer to match it as the rear on Shimano is 11t. (SRAM Eagle is 10t remember). It's highly unusual to run that large a chainring on a 1x MTB system. Raceface don't do direct mount cinch chainrings that large. You may have to buy a Race Face cinch "spider" and then use a regular bolt on chainring.
Increasing the chainring size from 30t to 36t will almost certainly require extra links in the chain. I think you should be ok without having to buy a new rear derailleur. That might not be the case if you want a 44t chainring.
IMHO, the "problem" with mountainbikes these days is that they've become more specialised than they were in the past. The gearing and geometry is much more set up for mountain biking only than it was before to the point where they're not that great as general purpose bikes anymore.
In other words, keep the Orange as it is. Use it for mountain biking. It's not a road bike. Get a second bike for using on roads or fix the old bike and stick some more road friendly tyres on it - eg. 2.0" Schwalbe Marathon Mondials which would be pretty nice for Portuguese roads and trails.
