Already opened chests respawn closed, but can't be opened
The bug
During a 4 player online session we kept encountering a recurring bug of chests re-spawning that were previously opened that looked like they were untouched.
To reproduce
- Start the game Online
- Get at least one person in your game to join before loading up a map.
- Open a Gold or Silver(Wooden) chest in an area.
- Leave the area and open a chest far enough away (unload the other part of the map)
- Return and the Chest SHOULD look like its still unopened.
This bug is reoccurring but it varies as sometimes it doesn't appear.
I will try to get footage of this occurring.

As seen in the video attachment, the player is not able to open the chest. Using left click, right click, leaving and reentering the room did not allow me to open the chest. Unlike MCD-58, this did not occur in a multiplayer session, and it was the first time I had stumbled upon that room/chest.
This seems to be a freak occurrence, as I have not been able to reproduce this issue in further playthroughs. This originally occurred in an underground dungeons in Pumpkin Pastures; that underground dungeon included another one of those black and blue chests that I was able to open before this one.
Thank you for your report!

Had the same bug happen on every single chest we opened.
It should be noted that this is just a visual bug. Even when the chests look un-opened you can't open them again.
We encountered a similar issue whereby the chest would only open for 1 of the 2 players. Maybe this is related?
From my experience only non host players see this happen. And it happens on each of the maps.
Thank you for your report!
