Hey I'm just getting started with the level editor and I need help with pistons, so here are my questions:
1. What do the different types of pistons do?
2. How do I make a switch activated door?
3. How do I make a rotating wheel?
4. How do I make a repeating piston?  '<img'>

What do the different types of pistons do?

The phase of each is different.
5: Smallest.
6: Halfway toward largest.
7: Largest.
8: Halfway toward smallest.
How do I make a switch activated door?

Select the part of the door that moves it, then click on the switch while holding K.
How do I make a rotating wheel?

Add an anchor a few blocks away from a wheel. Connect a 5 piston from the anchor to the closest point on the wheel (very important not to do it the other way around; the "from" object's color will be used for attributes). Connect a 7 piston to the farthest point. Connect one of 6 and 8 to what's left. Which piston you connect to which connector defines the way the wheel will rotate (clockwise or counterclockwise). The anchor should be set to this color:
Red: diameter of wheel.
Green: desired speed in seconds per revolution.
Blue: desired number of revolutions.

If you mean a piston that never stops, set blue to 0, which is seen as unlimited.
