Scratch

when gf clicked
forever
if <not <<touching [ground v]> >
change y by (-something)

This should do it

When gf clicked
set [y-vel] to (0)
forever
if<([abs] of (y-vel)) < (0.1)>
change y by (-1)
if<not <touching [ground v]?> >
change [y-vel] by (-0.2)
end
change y by (1)
else
change y by (y-vel)
if<touching [ground v]?>
set [y-vel] to ((y-vel)*(-0.5))
change y by (y-vel)
if<touching [ground v]?>
change y by (y-vel)
end
end
end
end

Velocity isn't required, considering the question.

Doesn't "gravity scripts" imply acceleration and velocity?  In any case, I would prefer "gravity" with acceleration to a constant falling speed, and presumed that killersnowgoon1 would too.

Velocity is probably better.  If you can do it a better way, why not do it?

Well, the first script was a quarter of the size of the velocity script...

And will also get the sprite stuck in the ground, as well as falling at a constant velocity     Just because my script is longer doesn't mean it is less effective or an incorrect answer.

it works perfectly for me

Woah! Nice scripts, I need these for an angry birds based game, (both of them, i'm not taking sides on this)

forever 
if <touching color [#000000]?> // ground colour
 set [yvel v] to [0]
else
 if <(yvel) > [-20]> //so you cant fall faster than 20 pixels per step
  change [yvel v] by (-0.1) //the higher this value, the faster you will fall. Experiment.
 end
 change y by (yvel)
end

when i receive [jump v]
if <touching color [#000000]?>
 set [yvel v] to (20)
 change y by (20) //otherwise you will still be touching the ground and it won't work
