chest recipe2:


lower left slot is a lock, upper left is optional keyhole
locking/unlocking works by hitting the chest with the correct key or put the key in keyhole and punch the chest

How to see if you have a proper key or not? Special tooltip with a key hash?

[matusz]

you can see the wear bar on the key for a approximation, as the wear is the encoding
it should be the same as the key in lock-slot

I don't know how to quickly check the exact value - it's possible to make a node for checking it, but
it would need putting the key inside, checking the encoding and taking the key out - but it could be
too much if you have many keys

to put the encoding in tooltip would require modification of C++ code I think

You need some mechanism to copy the key. Because you won't be able to remove the chest with items after you lose the key.

key duplicator prototype in github now, insert new key, punch with encoded key
additionally - if no new key is inside, then punching with encoded key displays key number
punch with anything else to reset infotext

recipe:
W _ W -> key_duplicator
where W is 'default:wood'
