Basic information[]
Wood Treasure Chests are Treasure Chests that spawn during the night in most surface areas. The have a green glow.
Unlooted treasure chests can and will despawn when (all) player characters leave out of sight (and/or log out). Half-looted chests will prevail a little longer, but will despawn if the player/s do/es not return quickly.
These treasure chests will only spawn in complete darkness, so adding roofs and walls to any spawning arena/farm will be of benefit, otherwise these chests can merely spawn at night. Sunlight or artificial light will not make chests vanish that have already spawned.
Artificial light like torches or lanterns will hinder chests from spawning. Objects with glowing parts that do not illuminate the surrounding like LEDs or Pressure Plates, as well as natural blocks that provide illumination like Wildwood Flowers will not prevent these chests from spawning.
Before the R.73 update on September 11th 2020, Wood Treasure Chests were the only treasure chests that spawned on the surface, and had a yellow glow instead of a green one.
