[dataChest] file needs to be closed after each operation #117

File IO does not work properly if two dataChest's have the same file open. I think everything works fine if each closes the file after reading/writing, so we should do that.

What issue is this causing?

If one file is trying to read a file that the other is writing to, getData() returns an old version of the data. I am not sure more data is ever able to write properly to the chest, actually.
