--[[
	This is an example treasure spawning mod (TSM) for the default mod.
	It needs the mods “treasurer” and “default” to work.
	For an example, it is kinda advanced.

	A TSM’s task is to somehow bring treasures (which are ItemStacks) into the world.
	This is also called “spawning treasures”.
	How it does this task is completely free to the programmer of the TSM.

	This TSM spawns the treasures by placing chests (tsm_chests:chest) between 20 and 200 node lengths below the water surface. This cau
	The chests are provided by the default mod, therefore this TSM depends on the default mod.
	The treasures are requested from the treasurer mod. The TSM asks the treasurer mod for some treasures.

	However, the treasurer mod comes itself with no treasures whatsoever. You need another mod which tells the treasurer what treasures to add. These mods are called “treasure registration mods” (TRMs).
	For this, there is another example mod, called “trm_default_example”, which registers a bunch of items of the default mod, like default:gold_ingot.
