I noticed this bug early on in my hardcore world where randomly I would come back to my trader hall and half the signs would be invisible. Then while I was building something I had all my shulkers/bed/and collection chests placed down. I used my elytra to fly out some 50-100 chunks to get more wood for the chests. When I returned to the build, every chest/bed/shulker in the chunk was invisible. I could still interact with them but they were all entirely empty. I lost all my materials, equipment, supplies, etc. I could place fresh blocks next to the chests/shulkers and they would turn visible; however, they were still completely empty. In the included screenshots, one of them has visible shulkers. This is because I placed a block next to them which caused them to become visible again;, however, they are still entirely empty.
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Invalid.
Your game, launcher, or server is modified. If you can reproduce the issue in a vanilla environment, please create a new ticket.
Any nonstandard client/server/launcher build needs to be taken up with the appropriate team, not Mojang.
A world which had previously been opened with a modified client might be corrupted. Please try reproducing the issue in a newly generated world.
Any plugin issues need to be reported to the creator of the plugin or resource pack.
If you have problems on large servers such as Hypixel, please contact them first as they use modified server software.
