Quick Answer
The game does not have a developer-confirmed private-chest option in this Early Access discussion. A player reported using a friend’s chest materials in co-op, and Sagestone Games described private storage as a future feature they would like to add. Until then, coordinate storage with your group and keep personal supplies out of shared chests.
Are Chests Private in Co-op?
A player in a September 2026 discussion reported that they and a friend in the same building had been using one another’s chest materials without realizing it. In response, Sagestone Games said private chests are something they would like to add in the future. No existing private-chest switch or ownership setting was given. For now, do not assume a chest in a shared base protects its contents from other players.
How Can a Group Keep Supplies Separate?
Agree which supplies are communal and which belong to a player before depositing them. Keep important personal items in your own inventory instead of relying on a chest to be private. A separate room or a verbal agreement can help a trusted group organize storage, but neither is a game-enforced lock or permission system.
This is an organizational workaround, not a claim that moving a chest farther away or putting it behind a door changes who can open it.
Is Private Storage Planned?
Yes, as a stated intention, not a released feature. Sagestone Games mentioned unresolved design questions such as what happens to a private chest when its owner leaves a world and does not return. The developer also floated a personal storage option accessible in a shared world. Neither implementation nor release date was confirmed.
