I need to know one thing, is it possible for me to have a ball with a stick attached to it. if an enemy touches the stick while an attack button is being pressed can you kill it? and how can you make stairs? do i ahve to use an elevator or automatically move the guy or something?

As for the killing;

Add a limb to the user, shoot an intersection ray from the limb to the user, make sure to offset the limb right directly infront of the user, now check if there is an intersection between the user and the limb AND if the user is pressing the desired key AND if the iobject intersecting is the enemy, if so kill/delete/do whatever you want to the enemy.

For stairs;

Shoot an intersection ray starting directly below the user ending at the user's position. Check for any intersections with any objects in your game using a for/next loop. If an intersection occurs, move the user up at the desired speed.

Alter the distances and speeds at which the user moves to get the desired collision and death distances you....desire.

thanks ruccus, alot of help. Is there anyway to either move the limb up and down when the key is pressed or put an object where the limb is?

Kind of tired so this answer may seem messed....

Umm, ok every loop offset the limb to the limbs x offset, the limbs y offset plus a variable, and the limbs z offset.

Then... when the key is pressed, increase or decrease the variable thats added to the y offset.

And, umm to position an object at a limbs pos just use POSITION OBJECT and then the LIMB POSITION X, Y, and Z commands.
