intuitive way of moving chests

[GsomOVER9000]

i just got done expanding my storage area which was a pain and required me to move items to empty the inventory of each chest and move the items to a temporary chest just to add another chest next to the pre existing one

with the sheer amount of items that are in the game, i feel like we need a convenient way of transporting items in chests either for relocation or expansion. like either a chest dolly that keeps you from using other items and weapons. or maybe even have it so we can mine full chests but only ones we placed ourselves which would make moving chests infinitely more convenient and way less painful. with so many handy quality of life features, i dont know how this hasnt at least been thought of yet

Use personal storage. Like the piggy bank, safe, defender's forge, void vault.

Each have their own specific storage tied to your character instead of the world. So drop the items in it, go to where you want to place your chest, place your chest, open up your personal storage of choice and move the items over.

let me specify - i was thinking of an easier method earlier on in the game. i did use my money trough, and i normally do use the safe, defender's forge and void vault and theyre certainly helpful. but i dont have access to them yet since this is a fresh world and i havent fought skeletron yet. otherwise yeah great idea

Ah right,

Well, if there was an easier way to fill up a chest and move it - it would function just like the personal storage with the exception that it would still be tied to the world I suppose. So it should be doable at least.

I haven't checked out Calamity or Thorium lately, but maybe there's something like that in those.

im talking about moving existing chests like in a storage room. would be more intuitive and could be done earlier on instead of requiring you to beat skeletron before you can rearrange your armory. or i guess its my fault for not coming up with a blueprint for how i want the place to look before setting down chests and filling them and kinda just winging it
