UO Second Age

When I try to rescue NPC's from the orcs, ratmen, or brigands, a good portion of the time (maybe 1/3-1/4) the chest won't let me un-lock it or open it. This may have to do with already having accepted someone's "destination" quest, but I've had it happen with or without other NPCs following around.
Is there something I don't know about these quests? Recently, I had one not aknowledge that I was trying to un-lock it, only to allow me to un-lock it 5 minutes later.

Thanks,
Brandon

You need to pick the lock.

I've been using magic unlock fine.. In the problem cases, it won't even aknowledge that I've tried to unlock it, even though it lets me gain magery on it. It's like it's not even a chest..

Sometimes the "static" chest that is part of the camp hides the dynamic chest that can actually be picked. Use <ctrl><shift> to see the item label, and target the label. I thought we'd fixed this problem, I'll take another look at it. Sorry about the trouble.
