LÖVE

Basically if a body (the player) collides with another body (the stair) that is of a certain height then allow the player to move over the stair.

Edit: To my knowledge, Love won't allow a body to travel over another body regardless of how short the second body is. I could be wrong but from what I've experienced, that seems to be the case.

Not sure what you are asking here ... ?

With all due respect, how is that difficult to understand? I want to know how to allow a body to travel over another body if the "stair" is at or below a certain height. Think of a flight of stairs in real life for instance, you couldn't step over a stair that was three feet tall. The problem being that Love won't allow a body to travel over another body regardless of how short it is.

With all due respect, using question marks and asking an actual question would've helped

Are you using box2d for collisions?

No, I'm just using Love's physics system.

Then what you probably need is sensors:

and

IIRC there is also an example for this in the examples.love:

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Also the 0.9.0 example browser doesn't contain an example of this.

For completeness' sake, love.physics uses box2d, so they're basically the same.

Also, it really helps if you upload a .love file of what you've made so far, because from the description in the opening post you could've been using a lot of different things and we have no real way of figuring out what kind of help you need.
