Corridor chests sometimes won’t generate in Stronghold
The process to reproduce this is the same as MCPE-23416, MCPE-97295, and MCPE-141499. To get a missing chest specifically use these steps:
- Set render distance to 8 and turn on the auto-save icon.
- Create a world using the "Stronghold Below" seed with simulation distance 4 or 6.
- /tp 1126 70 -15
- Move to 32 < Z < 47, then quickly back to Z < 0, and wait.
- Once the auto-save icon appears, /tp 1126 27 201.
Expected result
Chests at Z = 202 and Z = 209.
Observed result
One or both chests are missing.
Missing chest.mp4
This is hard to reproduce because it will happen at random times.
Steps to reproduce
- 1 enter a stronghold
- 2 search for corridor chests ( if none of them is missing, then try the same seed a few time.)
Observed result:
Sometimes a corridor chest is missing, resulting in an empty chest holder and missing loot.
Expected result
All chest should generate

I thought I got the bug on my device but the next fortress that I got into had all of the chests, and matching the chests placement and amount of them on the same seed world, but on normal difficulty. And I think the disappeared chests can be connected to the MCPE-23416 and MCPE-48622.
Are you sure there are no chests in fortresses on your peaceful world, none at all?

The no corridor chests affects Windows 10 PC v. 1.16.0.59 Beta; World seed: Coastal Village (-1813740965); Survival Mode; Normal Difficulty; Infinite Size.
I found no stronghold corridor chest at x=-4789 y=38 z=1727, see above screen shots. I imported an early export of the same world and found a stronghold corridor chest at the aforementioned coordinates. This is a very old bug.
The no corridor chests affects Windows 10 PC v. 1.16.20.50 Beta and v1.16.1 Full Release; World seed: Coastal Village (-1813740965); Survival Mode; Normal Difficulty; Infinite Size.
I found no stronghold corridor chest at x=-1440 y=23 z=531 and x=-1476 y=29 z=552, see above screen shots. I tried several Exports and the chests were missing in all.
Thank you for your report!

The no corridor chests affects Windows 10 PC v. 1.16.20.50 - 1.16.100.57 Beta and v1.16.1 Full Release; World seed: Coastal Village (-1813740965); Survival Mode; Normal Difficulty; Infinite Size.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Minecraft Bedrock v1.16.100.57 Beta on a Windows 10 Pro PC V. 2004 Build 19041.508
2. Go to Stronghold corridor chest at location x=-1440 y=23 z=531 and x=-1476 y=29 z=552, see above screen shots.
Observed Results: No corridor chest at either of the aforementioned locations.
Expected Results: A chest should be at one or both locations.
Could not reproduce the issue by teleporting to the coords on the seed provided, nor by research in game by myself, in several strongholds on several seeds. Is this still an issue in the latest version?
Seems to be fixed now. I have encountered multiple strongholds in creative and all of them had the chests correctly generated
This occurs via a specific sequence of movements relative to render and simulation distance. I have added more detailed steps and a video showing repro starting from world creation.
