See if you can get the gravity marble. Idk, there might be gravity scripts in there. Idk. =P

Re: how do you make gravity?
Hm... this sounds so complicated.
Math Trick of the Week: Choose any three digit number that's one digit is at least 2 less that the tens digit and the tens digit at least 2 less than the hundreds. Then, reverse the digits and subtract. Then, reverse the digits in the answer and add. You should get 1089.

Re: how do you make gravity?
I made this a while back to explain a ball bouncing off of walls. Look at the y-velocity part for the gravity.
Summary: When the ball isn't touching the ground, a variable called "y-velocity" changes by -0.1. If the ball is touching the ground, y-velocity is set to a positive number (the bouncing part). The balls Y-position is forever changing by y-velocity.

Are you sure? Doing this doesn't work?

Re: how do you make gravity?
first you need to know how to simulate velocity:
vars: xvelocity(xv) yvelocity(yv)
always change x position by xv and y position by yv
then just apply a constant force in whatever direction you want
for down just change yv by -1 in a forever loop
IF you wan to get fancy and do friction just set xv to xv*0.98 (or by a lower decimal for more friction) & just do the same for yv
