Refill a looted chest after a while, but never in front of the player

Chests that fill themselves again keep a world alive, yet a chest that pops back full while you stand next to it feels like a glitch, and one that refills after a clock change feels like a cheat. This entry shows when a refill may happen and what the new contents depend on.

Why this works

A world feels alive when it changes while you are away, and broken when it changes in front of you. Refilling only out of sight, after a wait the game itself counts, keeps the magic and leaves the player no way to farm it.

When not to use it

Don't refill in a game about scarcity, such as survival with a fixed supply, where each chest is a decision and running out is the point. Don't refill either if the story says the place is plundered. Leave it empty for good.
