Breaking chest doesn't drop items

@steviegt6 yes that works, thanks for the info!

I don't think he ever implemented it in the game as a mechanic.

It seems as though this is supposed to happen, as this code seems to try to do that, the issue is it's in the hit() method instead of the onHit() method, so it never gets called as the chest can't hit something (At least I don't think it can).

// EntityChest.java
@Override
    public boolean hit(Entity e) {
        if (super.hit(e)) {
            for (ItemStack s : this.inventory.stacks) {
                EntityItem.spawn(this.level, s, Level.toCenter(e.tileX), Level.toCenter(e.tileY));
            }
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

A potential fix could be Overriding the getDrops() method (which gets called when the furniture item is hit) to also return all of the items inside the chest instead of just the chest item itself.

// EntityFurniture.java
protected List<ItemStack> getDrops() {
        return List.of(new ItemStack(new ItemInstance(this.item)));
    }

// EntityChest.java 
@Override
    protected List<ItemStack> getDrops() {
        List<ItemStack> temp = this.inventory.stacks;
        temp.addAll(super.getDrops());
        return temp;
    }

Can confirm that this is a valid solution.
