More Details

ID

Each Chest instance has an ID (Integer). These IDs are unique. No two Chest can ever have the same ID (unless of course one re-initialize the Chest class).

Default Chest

This is an instance of Chest that always exists, always has ID = 1, and can be interacted with in the same way as any other Chest by sending the messages to the Chest class.
