Why are people leaving their t-map chests?

What If you make the chest removal tool blessed, and if Somone leaves a chest, and let's say after 10min of nothing being removed anyone can empty it without going grey or just use the wand on it wether it has stuff in it or not.

Or have the exact same thing except the person who dug the chest up can single click it, click a option to put it back in the ground with a warning that if anything is still in the chest it will be lost. If they just abandon the chest, after 10 min anyone else can single click the chest and put it Back in the ground. But that option won't work till the required time to wait is up.

There's no incentive to remove chests, so this shouldn't surprise us.

Maybe add a few ingots depending on the colour of the chest with a tiny chance of getting some nice rare stacked ingots *blood red or something more pleasing* if destroyed? Not enough to ruin balance but maybe enough for people to farm chests for the rare.

actually this is a good idea. infact you could make it so the portal frag that has a rare chance to be in the chest goes into your pack upon putting the chest back in the ground instead of looting it. then people will for damn sure close the chest

I like this except those that do not do another t-map afters would never receive the gump so the chest would still persist.
Also add in besides not being allowed to dig or decode current map. That if chest isn't removed within x amount of time the said person will lose 1 point cartography

Can you imagine how many players would log into their tmapper and have 0 skill in carto? lol

There is the incentive. Good idea and it would just be annoying and not debilitating. You can get carto back to 70 in no time at all.

Until a solution is decided on - for all those that think it is too much effort to clear a chest and remove it:

if @findtype 0xe40 'any' 'ground' 'any' 5
setalias 'chest' 'found'
endif
waitforcontext 'chest' 0 15000
waitforgump 0xc8fd1ea7 15000
replygump 0xc8fd1ea7 1

This code is the same as clicking the chest and choosing remove then confirming - just auto.

WARNING:
This macro will DESTROY the chest regardless of what is inside.

it is the same as clicking the chest and selecting remove chest - yes, it will clear a chest full of items too - ONLY for the one who dug it up though.

It will only destroy a chest that you have dug - you cannot go around crushing other peoples chests - just an easier alternative to those that want to save time.

Remove this line - replygump 0xc8fd1ea7 1 - from the macro and it will leave you with a yes/no conformation gump rather than just deleting the chest. Should help prevent some accidents.
