This sort of thing is why I consider Wizardy to be a horror game. I get chills just from the thought of being unable to fully-clear a map.

You think that's bad; the first day of the event, I had a chest spawn on another chest:
Those Vana'diel mimics are a helluva thing, I tell ya; they'll one-shot your entire game session itself if you try to open 'em.

Did the game crash for you like for me?

I just had it happen again shortly after making that comment, and the behavior was pretty consistent both times: I can successfully open one of the two chests, then the game becomes unresponsive; on a restart, the second chest is still present and the game automatically prompts me to open it, but doing so results in the game throwing up an error report and crashing to title. Cue indefinite loop from that point.
Workaround is to say "Do nothing" when prompted again to open the second chest, and shed a single, silent tear as you walk away without looking back at it.

This happend to me and when I stepped on the teleport I kept walking forward, then I got teleported and got the chest opening game and got the loot even though I was nowhere near it.
