Loot chests can generate empty

A chest within a bastion remnant was entirely empty, this was within the Hoglin Stable portion of the bastion.

How to reproduce

  1. Create a world with seed 431446782

  2. Go to the nether

  3. /tp -1692 57 -508

  4. Open the chest
    → ❌  It's empty

As of 1.16.0.63 this can now impact other loot chests with reports received for ruined portal, treasure, dungeon and village chests. It also appears to be sporadic in that two users can generate a new world with the same seed and see different results.

This is likely to be the same issue as MCPE-68986.

This issue is still in 1.16.0.59 even though MCPE-68986 is fixed, so I'm reopening it. Also added some repro steps!

Still persist in 1.16.0.60

Could you please give some more examples of which seeds and coordinates are affected?

Been having this issue on latest snapshot with any world. Every new world created has no loot in the chests in villages, broken nether portals. So far I haven't had issues with dungeon and mineshafts.

Fixed in Beta 1.16.0.66

Yes, it is fixed. Yesterday, in 1.16.0,64, I found a bastion remnant with a chest in a room near the center (near the magma cube spawner and the gold blocks), and when I opened the chest, it was empty, which was very disappointing after all the hazzle. Now, after installing 1.16.0.66, I reopened the chest and it was filled (retroactively!), many thanks, thats great!

The fix for this is terrible.
Loot chests now have their loot generated when the chest loads into the world instead of when a player opens the chest which means it's now impossible for map makers to have loot tables for chests in custom maps.

This needs addressing as it's such a massive oversight by the devs!

Please fix!

Damm the loot chst in bastion remnants is empty again
