Rearranging chest locations becomes really hard when everything despawns if left unattended for about a short time.
Well I agree about the despawn time being a little bit short but what do you mean unattended for a long time? You're dropping stuff on the ground to move your chests?
I was in my ship and my friends were showing off their weapons. Me, being the idiot I was and forgetting my purple quality weapon damaged blocks when it was used, showed off my weapon only to destroy my chests on my ship while I had a full inventory already. I scrambled to pick up everything and place it back in my chest but they despawned so insanely fast that there was no way to get it all back. The rate at which stuff despawns should be lengthened.
Despawn time should be very very long like in terraria. I don't see the point of making people bum rush loot.
I agree entirely, losing around 300 ingots of iron, 200 of copper, and 50 of silver really sucks from just a little misclick.
