0008458: Ghosts can open mechanism-locked hatches and possibly other similar buildings
Ghosts passing through a hatch tile, will open it. If the tile is mechanism-operated, it will remain in an open state indefinitely.
1. Build a hatch
2. Link to a lever
3. Make a ghost nearby (many, many ways to do this, use your imagination!), ideally right under/above the hatch
4. Wait until it rises and check back after a while. They move randomly, but eventually it will pass through the hatch tile, opening it. To speed this up, create a meeting area above or below the hatch for the haunted dwarves.
Could potentially result in lots of !!FUN!! if the hatch is blocking off something you normally don't want in your fortress.

No tags attached.
