Setting Chests

[Kanachi]

Hiya, this is probably a noob question but is there a way to determine the range of random items which can be allowed to appear in each chest upon your map?

For example could i set it so a specific chest will contain any 3 items from a fixed list of random items i have chosen which MAY appear in that chest. If so how is this done?

This server has a plugin on the server that automatically fills all the chests randomly.

Thats a shame. So as a map maker there is no way to control this element?

Nope.

Most you could probably do is set a double chest/various chests in a place you want to be more valuable, e.g. the Pirate Cove

What about furnaces/dispensers?

Apparently this is possible and its a feature already in use on map 2. Its simply something controlled by the devs not the mappers. If this is true I believe this to be the wrong way around, the mapper has a more intimate knowledge of his/her level and would be able to make that initial judgement call in terms of map balance more accurately than a dev.

I've posted about this on the suggestions forum.
