At what point does dungeon loot generate in a chest? Is it when a chunk is loaded, or when the chest is opened? If you add a new mod that generates dungeon loot, can you revisit a chest, or do you need to find brand new ones?

It might be a little tricky to test, but I figure it's mostly likely when the chunk is first generated, thus adding a new mod with extra chest loot (whether that loot is in dungeon chest, mine chests, stronghold chests, or even village chests) would require finding brand new ones. However, I know of a mod that provides a way around that, by allowing you to partially or fully re-generate chunks: World Generation Manager.
Using logic and personal experience I'd say the loot is added when the chest spawns in the chunk because (1) that would be easier to code (2) I once added the Portal Gun mod to a mod pack I'd been using for some some time and none of the loot chests in explored areas (including a mine shaft and 2 small dungeons) had portal guns but every loot chest in new chunks had at least one gun (I think the mods bugged).
