Train Questions - Ancona - Bologna - Venice
So we're arriving on the overnight ferry to Ancona, making our way to Venice with a stop over in Bologna for a few hours. Do I need to buy 2 separate tickets: Ancona - Bologna and Bologna - Venice or just one with a stop over?

I haven't checked recently, but even regionale tickets always had a time restriction, though they weren't restricted to a specific train. Regionale journeys on paper tickets had to be completed within 6 hours of validating the ticket, and regionale journeys on online tickets (which are prevalidated for a regionale train you choose) had to be completed within 4 hours of that chosen train's departure time. As I said, I'm not sure that's still true, but it's something to check out in the unlikely event that you're planning on doing this whole trip on the slow trains.
