This is not a critical problem but a surprise. If a chest is blocked from opening with a non-transparent block then it does not receive items from/or give items to a hopper. I even tested this with a cat, which sits on top of the chest and also prevents items from entering-from or exiting-to hoppers. I can see that this might even be a feature with pistons, etc., but I discovered it when I was trying to make a compact structure and while I needed the storage that the chest provides, I didn't anticipate a need to open the chest so I blocked it with other parts of the device. If you wish, go ahead and label this, "Works As Intended." But at least it should be noted in the Wiki. |

A sticky piston can be used to stop the flow of items though a series of hoppers and chests and that might prove useful in a system. If trapped chest don't have this limitation (per |

We have to wait for a comment of Mojang if this is intended or not. |

Mojang has no affiliation with Minecraft wiki. If you want something mentioned there, you should consider adding this information yourself. |
