Code:
mob
    proc
        height()
            var/obj/main/checkheight = locate(usr.x,usr.y,usr.z)
            usr.pixel_z = checkheight.height * 32


Problem description:
doesnt work, why

Because locate() returns a turf, not an obj, and definitely not an /obj/main.

Also: locate(usr.x,usr.y,usr.z) is profoundly silly and you should just be using usr.loc instead.

Oh, and you shouldn't be using usr in procs AT ALL. You should be using src instead, here.

thanks as you can see im kinda new, thanks to you it works.

mob
    proc
        height()
            var/turf/checkheight = src.loc
            src.pixel_z = checkheight.height * 32 + 32

client/Move()
    ..()
    usr.height() // had to add this
