Killer powers should be prioritized over chests!
So I posted this in bugs basically explaining it with a video of someone who also submitted it as a bug. Thinking they made an error I tried posting it myself hoping to get a different response/result. No luck…I was hoping the mods would at least iterate for example, "not a bug but it is known that this is causing issues and we are looking into changing it." Would have been better imo but I understand that the mods looking at bug reports section are likely looking for bugs and filtering out anything else without a second thought. So as the mod who closed it said, I am moving it here!
So the, lets say…map logic I guess? The map logic when loading a map it does so with everything being done in a specific order. Everything has set spawn locations that it picks randomly and once it gets through the list and everyone receives that data from the server the map is done loading. Makes sense so far. However, there is a slight oversight or at the very least a flaw in this system.
The Flaw: certain killer powers (as seen in the video) get blocked from where they should be getting placed due to chests sharing the same spawn locations AND chest are loaded into the map FIRST. So the simple fix should be just changing that order so killer powers are loaded first and THEN chests OR (the more complicated solution) making them share separate spawns.
Now if BHVR thinks this isn't that big a deal in most cases…well that's somewhat true. However once pigs figure this out…during the anniversary they can effectively try to clutter 2-3 boxes next to each other. Thus, bringing back the head pop pig they were so adamant about removing and that is going to be really miserable for survivors to deal with. That's what I'm really worried about.

Yeah, seems kinda pathetic to say this is not a bug.
Sounds like they just don't know, or it would be too difficult to fix.
