Opening a trap door in a different level? [solved]

I'm trying to open a trap door from a pressure plate (using lua) to do so. Oddly enough, it appears that while I can open normal doors from a different level, I cannot open pit doors. What's also odd, is the door logic (i.e isOpen) is returning true, so the game thinks its open, yet when I go up there it isn't.
Can anyone confirm this?

Have you tried doing it with connectors only?

The trap doors of pits have no reason to be 2 sided, so it probably isn't identified as closed from below. You can always just link to a teleporter and teleport an item up to a plate on the level above to trigger it.

Ahh, thanks for the advice folks - a connector worked. The idea of spawning something to place on a pressure plate was going to be my backup plan though!

It might be worthy to keep an eye on this, as it might as well be a bug.
