Mega Man Maker's editor can allow a creator to make automated contraptions that can perform tasks without the player performing a specific action.
Below is a compendium of some of the notable contraptions that have been created and some levels where they can be found in so you can try them out.
Feel free to use these ideas and expand upon them in your levels!
Mini Boss Locks
Boss Doors will lock when a miniboss is on screen; However, the way that boss doors work will make the first column of the doors solid or not depending if the Minibosses is alive. What this is means is that creators can use Fuse Laser Crawlers or Push Blocks to do something after a miniboss is defeated.
Along with minibosses, stage bosses will also work if the creator needs to set an on off state after fighting a boss. Minibosses will only work while they are in an active state, meanwhile Bosses would work in the same connected section even if they have not been activated.
The benefit of such a setup is that it's faster than just going through the door. But aside from speed it can be used to open up a secret that is hiding in plain sight.
As of 1.8.0 this setup can be used to pull Heavy Push Blocks or start a Magnetic Coil with the power of fuse.

Proximity Detection
Have you ever wanted to make something happen if megaman is close by? Introducing proximity Detectors.
Steam can extinguish lit oil fires. Fire acts as a solid object and oil is not solid; So when the fire is extinguished it can allow a laser or a push block to pass through. Steam also works to heat up hot plates. This could be used to get in range of a trigger in order for a path to open or for an enemy to take damage.
An alternate style of a proximity detector will use assets that despawn off view such as cossack blocks or girders that would normally block a fuse laser or a push block but as soon as it is despawned the object being blocked will activate. These types of proximity detectors do not need steam as they work by screen edges.
