I just set up my well in my current fortress and I completely forgot about pressure, so the well flooded and I had 7/7 water sitting behind a door. Well, Urist McWatercarrier comes up and opens the door.... *SPLOOSH* .... all this water comes out, my dwarves start drowning, and the water goes down my central staircase straight to my bedroom level and proceeds to begin flooding all the rooms and I get a ton of spam "Urist McStupid cancels Eat: Dangerous Terrain" messages. Luckily the door shut automatically, but all my dwarves were spooked and sat in their rooms for around a month...... Luckily my millitary was not part of this and successfully defended my fort from 5-6 ambushes that actually occured in my fortress..... I have now demanded traps be built and dogs stationed outside. Also I will hopefully remember about presure on my next fortress
