I'm pretty sure i can adapt it to bump it up 1 stud.

Well, you need the player's position, then use vectorAdd() to set the bricks position. I'm not sure how much you need to add though.

Bricks generally have 0.25TU X and Y, and 0.3TU Z for 1 plate.
Players are usually 5 bricks (1.5 TU) tall.

1.5*player.scale will get you their height in TU.
I believe datablock.getBrickSizeZ() * 0.3 will get the brick's height.

a 1x1F takes up a 0.5x0.5x0.2 TU area

ah, k

you could probably look at the autobridge script to see a way to do it

Just so you know, a player is 3 TU tall

so that would make a plate be around 3/14 of a TU tall? 0.21 seems like an odd number to pick

A plate is .2 TU tall
Where did you get 3/14?

Check out the autobridge script. If you don't know where to find it, Google always helps.

I have 2 different versions of it, but I somehow broke them LOL
I can't figure out how to fix it, but oh well.

you said a player is 3 TU tall
a player is around 14 plates tall
3/14 is 3/14?
