  • Creating a double chest in Minecraft is no big deal. But what about a triple chest? Turns out that at one point, they could actually be created and used in survival Minecraft! Today, I'm going to explore the history of Minecraft Triple Chests.

    There's three different calculations we need to make, in order to get a good approximation of the total probability of such an event accuring, these are:
    1.) The probability of a dungeon and a mineshaft chest spawning in the same chunk
    2.) The probability of a dungeon containing a double chest
    3.) The probability of the mineshaft chest to be right next to the dungeon double chest (y-Level needs to match as well)
    Some of these are practically impossible to calculate, since Minecraft generates dungeons/mineshafts, as well as chests within dungeons in a very unpredictable way. That's why I had to do some sampling on chunkbase to obtain some good estimations.
    After doing sampling of around 14'592 chunks, I counted 234 dungeons, as well as 108 mineshaft chests. This means that dungeons have a 1.6% chance of generating in each chunk and mineshaft chests have a probability of around 0.74% of doing so. Combining these, we get the probability of around 0.012% (or 1 in 8425) of a dungeon and a mineshaft chest spawning in the same chunk.
    Dungeons spawn in different sizes with different amount of chests inside them (0-2). All dungeon sizes (5x5, 5x7, 7x7) are equally likely, but the average amount of chests within a dungeon can't be calculated that easily. After manually checking around 50 dungeons myself, I concluded that about half of all dungeons contain two chests within them.
    Note that for a chest to generate within a dungeon, it needs to be placed next to exactly one solid block (disregarding the mob spawner). This means that double chests can only spawn vertically to the wall, or along the wall if there is an opening right where the chest is. There are around 2*((n-2)+(m-2))-1 ways for a double chest to be generated vertical to the wall, for every nxm sized dungeon. Considering a dungeon has 2 openings on average, this gives around 3 more possible arrangements for double chests to spawn. (Normally you get more openings the bigger the room is). For each nxm sized dungeon, there exist around 2*((n-2)+(m-2))-1 ways for the first chest to be placed. The amount of different possibilities for the second to be placed is highly dependent on the placement of the first chest and the openings, so we can only make assumptions, that there is about 10 ways for 5x5, 13 for 5x7 and 16 for 7x7. (You can draw the possible placements on paper regarding different opening positions and this is the approximation i came up with.) Using these numbers we get the following probabilities of a double chest generating:
    - 5x5: (2*(3+3)-1+3)/((2*(3+3)-1)*10) = 14/110 = 0.127 = around 1 in 8.
    - 5x7: (2*(3+5)-1+3)/((2*(3+5)-1)*13)= 18/195 = 0.092 = around 1 in 11.
    - 7x7: (2*(5+5)-1+3)/(2*(5+5)-1)*16) = 22/304 = 0.076 = around 1 in 14.
    Since all of these dungeon sizes are equally likely, we get a total probability of 0.097 for double chest accuring in a double chest room or a probability of 0.047 (about 1 in 21) of a double chest accuring in any dungeon.
    We now already have all calculations needed to calculate the probability of a dungeon double chest and a mineshaft chest being in the same chunk. Now we just need to account for the placement of these chests with respect to each other. For this I assumed that dungeons/mineshafts would generate around Y=10-60, therefore there are exactly 50*16^2 = 12'800 possible blocks where the chests could spawn at. The dungeon chest has exactly 6 adjacent blocks, so the probability of the mineshaft chest being one of those 6 is about 6/12'800, or 1 in 2133.
    Combining all the different probabilities we calculated, we obtain a pretty good estimate of around 1/8425 * 1/21 * 1/2133 = 1/369'396'908 for a natural triple chest accuring in every chunk. This means that there is approximatly one triple chest in every 300'000x300'000 block area, or about 40'000 naturally generated triple chests in each minecraft world.
    (Note that I used rounded fractions so it would be easier to read)
    EDIT: At first this seemed much too common to be true, since 40'000 such triple chests within every minecraft world seems like a lot to barely happen. But this might not seem that weird considering that you'll need to check 5-6 million dungeons on average, before finding one with a triple chest. It's not actually that surprising that there has only been one natural triple chest found on 2b2t so far.

    The change in how Chests were rendered actually provided an interesting application to lining up invalid chests, as with the proper placement only the first two blocks would be rendered, allowing you to create entire walls of invisible, tangible blocks. Before Barriers, this was one way of preventing players from going places they weren't meant to in custom maps.

    This reminds me of something I read about with pocket edition apparently in super early versions (before iOS or common android versions were released) you couldn’t create double chests like normal, however you could create VERTICAL double chests, which was super weird and caused a lot of glitches with the graphics. It was a bug, and was fixed after a few versions.

      In the actual code, whenever you open a chest it checks all four positions surrounding the block you clicked on for chests and adds them all to the gui, so you'd only get the side chest + the middle chest, unless the side chest had *another* chest next to it.

    so, i believe its around a 1 in 600 chance for a dungeon to spawn with a double chest, since both chest have to spawn adjacent to each other, obviously. its not too rare that a dungeon spawns in a mineshaft but for a chest to generate. a mineshaft can generate up to 80 blocks from its centre, but most don't. this means that, on average, there are about 256000 places a chest could spawn. so id calculate that a the chance of a triple chest spawning would be around 1 in 153600000. im not a professional but i think ive done my math at least somewhat correctly.

    You didn't mention at the start that chests used to not be able to be placed next to each other if they were already 2 long, that seems pretty important and something newer players might not know. You do mention it later, but i wonder if that might be confusing for someone who doesnt know
    Pretty sure here were other ways, I dont remember them, but I've definitely created many triple chests and I didn't know about the water bug, nor did i know you could keep going. I think there was a way to just break them in a certain order and keep placing them, but it only worked in a line not in a cluster like the quintuple chest. Or maybe I'm just remembering using worldedit, but I dont think so
    I just found a double dungeon a few days ago in 1.19 where the spawners were on the exact same layer and about 5 blocks away from each other where the chests actually connected in the center, presumably one from one spawner and the other from the other
    Aww im sad its gone. I guess it would be pretty hard to leave in with the way chests work now

  • @user-ck7yp1ry4g

    I remember I was messing around with structure blocks in bedrock 1.14.~ and accidentally created a triple chest (in a line) when trying to move something. I broke it without thinking, without even trying to open the middle. I no longer have access to minecraft on any device, but someone needs to check this out.
    There were a bunch of double chests on a storage thing on an automatic farm for a skyblock map I was planning to make... I always use structure blocks to move, copy+paste, delete large areas (since there is a block limit on how bug of an area can be set to air, but a structure block area can be worldheight x 64 x 64. What I usually do is grab a 64x64x~100 block section from above land generation, then paste over the land, the copy that entire worldheight x 64 x 64 section. Also because structure blocks give a preview, where command blocks do not), etc. Anyway I was moving one of them and rotating 180, but I didn't delete the one that was there because I already had the window open and everything, and I could just break the other blocks, or position an air16 structure I had saved. I pasted it and broke the structure block, but when I looked up, there was TWO DOUBLE CHESTS, WITH THE ENDS OF TWO CHESTS IN ONE BLOCK, WITH THE 3D MODELS Z FIGHTING. A triple chest. I wasn't able to recreate it, though I'm not sure I completely understood what I did until like a few days later. I had pasted a double chest overlapping one side of another double chest. It was also on a tablet, so maybe low processing power had something to do with it?
    I wish I had Minecraft now so I could try to do it again, but I do not have a mobile device, and the internet is slow and hard to download the 400+ MB of Minecraft Java.

    you could also make triple chest with chunk dupe i tried it on a 2b2t alternative 0b0t which has a modded version of chunk dupe so i tried using chunk dupe to make triple chest and it was possible, because of one thing
    1. chunk dupe restore everything back when the chunk file size is overloaded
    2. you place 2 chest at the chunk border 1 chest on chunk dupe side one more on outside
    3. then you chunk dupe it then when you are about to make the triple chest you will have to break the chest inside the chunk dupe chunk and add a chest on the outside border of the chunks of the duping area then unload the chunk and it will create a triple chest all in survival also it worked with other items it can be used to make a half portal that can explain how triple chest and cursed portal be form in some places on 2b2t

    Any multi-block structure breaks the rules of voxel worlds and causes issues in any game including minecraft.
    Saplings and pistons let you break indestructible blocks, tallgrass and flower variations create floating blocks that should fall, extensible chests will break the limit on their size, doors are kinda wonky, especially with lag, and the list goes on and on and on.
    Honestly, triple chests are like the least broken multi-block structure. And the result is almost exactly what you'd expect from placing 3 chests next to each other

      exactly. and only the middle chest is glitched because it probably looks for adjacent chest blocks upon opening.
      so it starts with 3 rows of items, then it loops through 4 cardinal directions and tries to find the adjacent chest. if it finds one, it adds 3 more rows of items in gui and doesn't break out of the loop. then it continues the loop and finds more chests, which would be impossible pre 1.13. and in 1.13 they just somehow rewrote the mechanism

    What happens if you open the side chests after storing something in the center chest? Are only some of the items stored inside the connected chest? Does it automatically delete the extra items?

    Seeing this now, it would be interesting to have a storage block, like chests and barrels, where having more than two put together is intentional in any directly connected form, even if it doesn't have a UI to show its contents. As an example, having a line of them connected together with items collected and put inside by hoppers from the side and they're immediately sorted from below it as soon as they enter, similar to how chest boats can be used to sort multiple items in parallel with their larger hitbox when placed in a minecart.

  • @piky635
    @piky635 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    so the math is:
    chance of a double chest spawning is somewhere between 1/25 and 1/49 (depending on the size of the dungoeon)
    thats easy but here comes the fishy part:
    there is no guarantee that a chest can even generate in a Mineshaft but on average there are about 4-5 chests per mineshaft for an average size
    lets say mineshaft complex have on average 5 wings with each having 270blocks of space, since chest spawn on either side we need to cut out the middle row so 270 - 270/3 equals 180
    the chance of a chest spawning in particular block is 1/180
    chance of mineshaft spawning in a particular chunk is 1/250 and dungeon is 1/1024
    thus the chance of spawning mineshaft inside the same chunk as dungeon is about 0,0004% (lets not calculate the chance of spawning inside the chunk but not going through it)
    with adding all up
    the chance of it happening are above 1 in 1 152 000 000 to 1 in 22 579 200 000 or 0,000000086 % to 0,000000044 % (since there is no way im calculating or counting how likely are mineshafts to go through the right spot)
    that explains why it only happened once, not counting two dungeons next to each with a triple chest because they are more common and chest has way less blocks to spawn on as seen on th-cam.com/video/1Qs-ISqkPME/w-d-xo.html
    dont know how @Riddle got 0.00007 % but hes wrong
    btw probability of winning a jackpot lottery is (49!/(49-6)!)which is “only” 1 in 13 983 816 or 0.0000000715 %

    You made me remember in 2012 When i was a Mod(staff) in a Free-Build server. Let's just say i did some world Edit and made my entire floor chests. Because of that the entire floor was transparent. It freaked the f' out of some players thinking they were going to fall in my house's basement. Good ol' day.

    I used to love making triple, quad, etc chests in mcedit back in the day. Wacky how the extra spaces was handled.

    Not to mention overloading chunks to have triple+ chests. Good vid
