I'm taking a guess you are using the free version of Sketchup, right? Cause If I understand you correctly, what you are asking for is what Dynamic Components are used for. You assign different attributes and change them accordingly. I don't think any plugin developper is "up to the mood" of creating a new DC component plugin. However a special "plant" plugin with different attributes etc is fully possible to create! But then again it have to be something extra to compete with DC's.. OR maybe to satisfy "nonpro" versions of Sketchup.

Adam ended up doing a 0.5 instead of 2... i think thats what you meant? or did i get my x/y's the wrong way... pt0.offset!(ya,interval*0.5) either got it I'll post further questions to the plugin page

Thanks

Something like that. Although the surrounding terrain may need some tweaking (the smoove tool is okay for that - or even better would be to get a site survey and make the terrain from contours). Here is a rough example how a stamp should look like - notice that I avoided using the real steps for the staircase as that would not work with the stamp tool. You can add them on that "slope".
