'''Footholders''' are special elevator platform robots considered enemies originally from ''[[Mega Man]]'' which are featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'', appearing as early as the game's [[1.0.0]] version. These propeller-propelled robots are used to move between large gaps a get to new places.
Concrete Shot is [[Concrete Man]]'s signature weapon, originating from ''[[Mega Man 9]]''. It is featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' as of version [[1.5.0]].


==Behavior==
A blob of cement is hurled in a downward arc that can reach two tiles forward if fired while on the ground. Upon touching solid terrain, it will harden into a block that can be stood on by the user, and will crumble away after half a second of doing so. If the block is left alone, it will break down after three seconds instead. This block is fully solid unless spawned at the user's current location, and can obstruct certain hazards such as [[Force Beam]]s and [[Fan]]s. When enemies are defeated by Concrete Shot, they will turn into blocks, but cannot drop items as a result. If an airborne enemy is turned into a block, it will fall straight down, being able to crush other enemies and even [[bosses]] should they be below. [[Carricarry]], [[Petit Devil]], and [[Fire Totem]] can be defeated in one shot by this weapon.
Footholders can be set to move to and from a starting location and an end location, where they will slowly fly from point to point back and forth endlessly. The [[Characters|player character]] as well as enemies affected by gravity can stand on the top of Footholders and ride them in order to move around and get to different places in a stage. They are semi-solid platforms and can be jumped through from below, allowing for the ability to be easily jumped on with no risk of injury from collision or the possibility of bumping into them. If a Footholder flies off screen it will not despawn like most other enemies, instead continuing to move regardless if they and the player character are on the same screen or even the same room.


Footholders have two possible color pallets that they can be set to, and are also one of the few enemies where selecting an alternate color palette changes how the enemy functions. Orange Footholders simply fly from point to point and pose no threat to the player on their own. Green Footholders meanwhile will occasionally fire out small projectiles to the left and right sides of them every few seconds in addition to their normal flying behavior. These shots can damage the player character and makes mounting green Footholders more difficult.
Another main feature of Concrete Shot is the ability to freeze the magma spewed from [[Magma Beam Generator]]s, making them safe to touch for four seconds. While the beam is still frozen, hitting it with [[Laser Trident]] will break it. While armored enemies will deflect shots as expected, blocks can still be formed on most reflective objects. Finally, blocks cannot be stacked on top of each other.
 
With the addition of [[Lava]] to Mega Man Maker in version [[1.8.4]], Concrete Shot is given a new interaction via creating solid blocks on Lava's surface. The blocks behave just as they do in any other instance, allowing the player to platform up on vertical Lava or horizontally across Lava segments.

==Trivia==
*As of version 1.6.3, Footholders are the only enemies in Mega Man Maker that are completely invincible.
*Due to how the weapon functions, [[Pump Man]] can be easily defeated by turning one of the bubbles that make up his Water Shield into a block. If the block is above him when created it will instantly crush him.
**Although invincible in all other appearances, Mega Man Powered Up allows the player to destroy Footholders with strong attacks.
*[[Spring Man]] can also be killed in one shot with it by turning his Wild Coils into blocks, but this requires more precision.  
*In Mega Man, Footholders fired projectiles from their sides regardless of their color.
*Footholders in Mega Man Maker originally needed to be on screen and in the same room as the player to move properly. This would sometimes result in them getting stuck off screen and make levels impossible to complete. It was later patched in a following update.
**This update however had the unfortunate consequence of breaking some early levels, as they expected the Footholders in their level to be at their starting positions when the player enters a room, leading to some instances of the player falling to their deaths.

Concrete Shot is Concrete Man's signature weapon, originating from Mega Man 9. It is featured in Mega Man Maker as of version 1.5.0.

A blob of cement is hurled in a downward arc that can reach two tiles forward if fired while on the ground. Upon touching solid terrain, it will harden into a block that can be stood on by the user, and will crumble away after half a second of doing so. If the block is left alone, it will break down after three seconds instead. This block is fully solid unless spawned at the user's current location, and can obstruct certain hazards such as Force Beams and Fans. When enemies are defeated by Concrete Shot, they will turn into blocks, but cannot drop items as a result. If an airborne enemy is turned into a block, it will fall straight down, being able to crush other enemies and even bosses should they be below. Carricarry, Petit Devil, and Fire Totem can be defeated in one shot by this weapon.

Another main feature of Concrete Shot is the ability to freeze the magma spewed from Magma Beam Generators, making them safe to touch for four seconds. While the beam is still frozen, hitting it with Laser Trident will break it. While armored enemies will deflect shots as expected, blocks can still be formed on most reflective objects. Finally, blocks cannot be stacked on top of each other.

With the addition of Lava to Mega Man Maker in version 1.8.4, Concrete Shot is given a new interaction via creating solid blocks on Lava's surface. The blocks behave just as they do in any other instance, allowing the player to platform up on vertical Lava or horizontally across Lava segments.
