what does it do?

It makes a smaller chest, using entities. I suggest using nodes with the nodebox drawtype instead; a simple cube nodebox should be really easy to make.

Creating a Minecraft like chest is not possible because there is no "vertical yaw" for objects.

An idea:
You could make it look like an open chest through nodeboxes. Perhaps when you click the chest an open chest replaces it and when you exit the formspec the open chest is replaced with a closed one.

Please notice that using object for a chest is a risky solution.
/clearobjects will remove such chests. Server in case of too many objects floating around can also force delete...

What about punching the chest to open/close it, with formspec only accessible when the chest is open ? (using nodeboxes too)

That would be a lot easier to do.

Exactly. I'm not sure it's possible to know when the formspec is open, too.

Dang, I wish I knew how to do nodeboxes; I would do this.

Wait I don't understand. This thread is about a lavacooling mod, but most posts are about chest nodebox ?!?

Lavacooling interferes with Rath's lavacooling, they both do the same thing. They don't interfere code-wise, but they won't look cool being used in combination. It may be best that you rename your mod, to prevent confusion.

No, just give both lavacooling mods the same name so people cant install both.

If you're adding basalt, you should probably look at gloopblocks, it might be of some use to you.
